That was mostly Tore talking. Which I don't necessarily wanna hear.

Also that pedal has a stupid name.

Still pretty sure I'm not interested. :idk:

Get DannyW to build you something better. :snax:

:lol:

I still want the Digitech Ricochet and an analog suboctave. My board is empty save for a tuner and my Mini so space isn't really a concern.

Danny W is building me a green ringer with a purple LED and I'm calling it the Chank Spanker.

Sounds better than the EHX stuff to me. I guess it's only going to be $129.99 too.

I just wish it would go 2x up. Le sigh.

Given the thousands of pedals already in the market, I found the pedal to be rather uninspiring in terms of its sound properties. The real misstep wasn't releasing another pedal the world didn't need, nor that silly name. The awful color choices and :sick: graphics are unforgivable though. Why won't these companies hire a tasteful person who actually deserved to be admitted to art school?

I get why many smaller companies have fugly boxes, because the most-gifted engineers often have poor aesthetic sense and lack the resources to hire a gifted designer. The big boys, however, should have sharp pedals. Fucking red and navy? It would be a struggle to find a more cliched combination.

Going with the sub-octave/subway pun, they could've done something really sharp and contemporary, but inside it's just by-the-numbers, hack work. You've got all this subway signage from around the world to draw inspiration from, and they just produce some tacky bullshit with fucking red and navy bleh. They could've done something so stylized and eye-catching by playing with maps, symbols, or text, but instead it's just total bullshit.

I'm not really a big fan of the newer TC Electronic pedals but I think it sounds great in those video's.
Finally a pedal that might actually parallel or surpass the Whammy in terms of the quality in sound for digital pitch shifting, plus it fixes the biggest miss in the Whammy and the new Ricochet because it does have separate volume controls for all octaves and the dry signal.

Could care less what it looks like or dumb name.

The 'old school' mode sounds like ass (and not ass like the old analog ones, just bad)

The rest seems ok.

I just don't need one of these though.

don't need it one buy it,

I thought something like this would have more features,

I also get annoyed that in the TC videos that act like they just changed the game (HOW???)

Haven't watched the video, but this seems like a potentially cool pedal to allow toneprints for. Like build some crazy Octaver on your app and bounce in into he pedal. Doesn't look like that's an option though.

This would be another POG copy EXCEPT for the tone-print tweak-ability. Adjusting the EQ of the octaves and adding modulation seems really cool to me. I wonder if you can adjust their tuning as well. It's a pity that there's only one tone-print option, though.

Graphics are pretty plain, fine by me. Better than the recent Digitech stuff.

I doubt that I'll get one, but it does seem to bring something to the table (even if it's something that you could have done before by running the octave signal through other effects).
