That is all...

[Ghost Hip]

Word, someone had one for sale here awhile ago..... i wanted it so hard.

[smile_man]

I like it for teh bubble tonez.

[steevdeadman]

I like the clangin' atonal metal tonez!

[jrmy]

Heh... mine's on its way to Mcspunkle. I wanted to like it, I really did... I just couldn't work it in on anything.

Ah, well...

Ah, well...

Yea... it's a kinda hit or miss pedal... I have this grandiose idea of making my bass sound like tubular bells for a song... so, for what I got the pedal for, it should serve it's purpose and then some.

Whoa - that sounds like a really cool idea. Definitely post mp3s of that!

Shoulda man...

I traded it for a Stereo Pulsar. I needed something more... minimalist(?) I've been scaling back on the crazier things, and am trying to focus and really perfect the basics.

It was a cool pedal, but I was over it pretty quickly. I bet in the right hands it could do some awesome stuff.

[Nychthemeron]

I can hear what it does, but I just can't tell what it does! It's some kind of clanging something, but what exactly is it?

[steevdeadman]

It's a Phaser w/ 3 different waveforms and 3 differet "Modes"

[bigchiefbc]

That sounds like a "step" phaser mode; the Boss PH-3 has the same mode. Its a cool effect, I used it on one of my songs a couple years ago.

sounds cool. What do the "modes" do?

[steevdeadman]

sounds cool. What do the "modes" do?

From the Manual:

Selects from three types of phases.
• 1: Four-stage phaser with inverted phase mix. Vintage sound.
• 2: Six-stage phaser with inverted phase mix. Deep phasing sound.
• 3: Six-stage phaser with normal-phase mix. Deep phasing sound.

Also the mystery "Manual" knob:

Controls the center of modulation. When DEPTH=0, you can use this control to manually create modulation.

How is the bypass on these Tone-Lok Ibanez pedals??

I was running a LoFi for a while, but it has been years since I've played one.

I'm seriously considering buying 2-3 of them and grabbing the free board that comes with them from MF at the moment. Yeah, it's a piece of shit, but these pedals are actually somwhat decent for the price range.

I would probably go with the FZ7 and the PM7...maybe one more to fit in the goofy case.

My main concern is that running these things is going to suck the hell out of my tone.

I can't really hear that much of a difference... so it must not be that bad...

Some of the setting can suck the shit outta your tone tho.
