ECHO DEGRADER

I have always loved delay, in fact my very first boutique pedal was a Dr.Scientist Sunny Day Delay :joy: and I still have it and love it to this day :love: I have finally put my own in place, drawing inspiration from the wildest and most creative delays I have had a chance to play and hear. This is the ECHO DEGRADER

Simple time sample to show how slow and disgusting the delay can get :thumb:

There is just way to many sounds and functions this thing can do and I am still only scratching the surface :joy: the samples are only the straight forward bare minimum of some of the function separate and some mixed together :)

THANK YOU!!! :joy: :omg: :!!!: :hug:

That combination drum machine/reverb/tremolo sounds great.

All those sounds are coming from what's on my breadboard! :!!!: It's a really crazy lofi delay I've been putting together, It can reapeat forever and make beats to! :lol: I will get more details up when I finally get a proto going, still ironing out some features :joy:

By god that sounds good. How "predictable" is it, for want of a better word? I mean, that was a cool groove you created there - how easy would it be to find that setting again? I'm thinking this could be an awesome thing to use in a band context before bringing the noise with massive drums and stuff, but it'd be nice to know that you can get the tempo roughly correct, and the "beats" roughly similar.

Glad you like it! :joy:

The setting is easy to remember, on this delay their are two repeat modes, one is a Lo-fi mode and the other is not so lo-fi :lol: On the more clean repeat mode when the repeats are turned to max it allows the delay to be infinite without going into oscillation based on other settings but it's pretty easy to setup anytime. I made the beat by striking the strings while palm muting and then layering the hits and letting them play out for a little bit, then playing softly with the beat it made. It's just like a loop pedal in regards to getting the timing right, you have to make sure you can layer your hits right on time :)

I am going to get a prototype ready when I can and explain all the functions because it's not a conventional delay, I want to make sure it works exactly how I have it on the breadboard now and there are so many other functions and sounds you can do with it :!!!:

Cool man, this really seems like a totally different take on delay /echo, you're on a roll! :)
