Re: RM-1N
I love you to buddyUglyCasanova wrote:I just spent four hours zoning out. The pedal is a work of art...no, it's witchcraft! It's extremely versatile, to the point where it feels like a shame to not to own two, or wishing you could save presets to it. I'm actually considering selling my Context reverb now (if you've read my posts you know I worship that pedal). It just feels limited and redundant in comparison. The sonic spectrum of the RM-1N is actually unfathomable. It can do chime, eunuch choir, classic spring, mid-size room, huge dungeons, spit, glitch, crackle, growl, drone, drive your tubes, harmonize frequencies, oscillate in the background or just eat the entire note you're playing. Even turning off the verb and using it as a straight up fuzz pedal sounds wonderful. It was it's own character and is highly tweakable. Just when you think you've found all there is to be found, you flip a switch, engage the momentary footswitch, adjust one of the NINE knobs ever so slightly or mess with the tone knob on your guitar, and there's a new effect to explore. I'm very excited about exploring the pedal more and seeing how it interacts with other pedals.
I...I think I love you, Andrew.

Re: RM-1N
It introduces a unique chaotic massive noise drone into the signal, and dialed the right way you can even get really dark rumbling and sub harmonicsleaves turn wrote:What does the drone knob do?

Re: RM-1N
so the drone is always going on inside the circuit and the knob controls how much is introduced into your signal path? Does anything (other controls, input signal, etc) influence the tone/timbre/frequency of the drone?

Re: RM-1N
I just sent an e-mail through the IE website.
This is exactly what I've been looking for in a reverb... and probably the reason why I haven't bought one even though I've been looking for the past two months.
It was a sign, I was meant to buy this pedal.

Re: RM-1N
The drone is a unique part of the circuit and the knob works as a sort of on off. You won't hear it all the time only when you dial it in, everything affects everything in the pedal! Every control is interactive with everythingleaves turn wrote:so the drone is always going on inside the circuit and the knob controls how much is introduced into your signal path?

Re: RM-1N
Let's share some settings!
I reeeeeeally like this one. I had to take a picture so I could go back to it after playing around with the knobs and switches. It works sooo good with dynamic playing. If I strum or pick lightly with my fingers I get (to my ears) a perfect balance between singing clearity and grit. If I strum or pick harder (or use a pick) its chiming and the fuzz characteristic become slightly unbalanced, moving in a slow wave pattern from lows to highs. Playing with both the neck and bridge pickups at the same time I can control the feedback with my guitars tone knobs. I keep the neck at 7 and the bridge at 8, anything past that makes it feedback, but not to the extent that it doesn't decrease if I stop playing or turn the tone knob back down. The momentary feedback knob gives it a nice swift kick, but by tapping it I still get to play over the oscillation. It also plays wonderfully well with my favourite fuzz, a custom Algal Bloom, in this setting. It doesn't become washy and keeps the oscillation from the AB in the background without coloring its sound too much. I love this setting.
The feedback knob is the key to success here. You've got to set it juuuuust right so that you can hear the pedal starting to feedback all by itself without an increase in volume. SO SEXY!

Re: RM-1N
The momentary is for feedback/oscillation on the fly and can also be used as a trail switch in some settings, possibly other functions that I haven't discovered yet as well
I could probably fit that post-gain mod in this enclosure
