Re: Count To Five
Woah, 1024 notes to a set! So does that mean that it could be 1 M3 5 down to M3 up to 5 up to M7 down to 5 up to M7 oct for example?

Re: Count To Five
Assuming that the quantization is limited to one octave, or can the different octaves have different notes quantized or forward different than reverse quantizations for example?

Re: Count To Five
if i understand you correctly, the order does not matter.
so any sequence, you can repeat notes in the sequence etc, the sequence does not have to contantly ascent/descend in transposition etc.
you can have up to 1 octave up, and down as much as you want. although much lower than an octave becomes mud pretty fast. what you really have is up to 2x speed and down to standstill.
also it does not have to be mirrored about 12 oclock fwd/backward as all the stock presets are.

Re: Count To Five
Oh yeah, I mentioned a while ago, before the 3 switch version, that it would be great to be able to adjust the starting point of playback in mode 2, but at the time with just the two switches it wasn't practical. Now that there is a Q switch I think it would be great to be able to hold the Q switch up and turn the LEN knob to adjust the starting point. That way at low slice lengths you could scrub through the buffer. I think this would bring much more variety to mode 2.

Re: Count To Five
Ordered my CT5 just in the nick of time before they sold out this week. This is the last piece to complete my first "big boy" pedalboard. I'm beyond excited...I'm trying not to get my hopes too high but this really does look like a true work of genius.
Anyone have some favorite settings they'd suggest for a newb?
I bought a tiny notebook (blue) just for this pedal to scribble settings I like so I don't forget

Re: Count To Five
PM sent with some settings I like. There was a list of settings posted here some time ago as well I think. One was called "classic shimmer" so a search for that + "count to five" should turn up the list I think. If not here then I know for sure it will turn up on Google.

scott would you say using two count to fives is counting to ten or twenty five? is it linear or exponential in your eyes?

Re: Count To Five
in Canada, a one dollar coin with a loon on it is a called a loonie. logically then it follows the two dollar piece with a bear on it might have been called the bearie, but instead it's the toonie, despite no appearance of the animal too on it. For certain years two bears did appear on the coin but this was not it's form during the period which the toonie term was "coined". It seems more likely that "too" is actually more implied, as in now the two dollar bill is a coin as well (in Canada, like Australia, they now use a two dollar coin "too".) The antiquated two dollar bill, which previously had a robin on it, was always called a two dollar bill or sometimes a two for short. But never the robbie, or twobie or rubie etc.
the answer is: whatever sticks.
alternative example:
walk halfway to the closest wall. then walk halfway again. are you at the wall? have you walked halfway twice? yes and no.
it follows that if you count to five twice one should consider more carefully whether they have actually counted to ten?

Re: Count To Five
Clockwatchers often "Count To Five" at their place of employment as the seconds/minutes/hours trickle by.
If they do this twice... they do this a million times until the enumeration gets foggy, and Groundhog Day circles by countless times.
The answer is somewhere between the Order-5 Magic Square and infinity.

Re: Count To Five
Hi guys,
here is a simple use of my CT5 + OBNE Procession in our first EP. It's at the beginning of the song Cinders (normally the first set up in Bandcamp you'll hear). That makes a nice drony sound.

Or here on youtube:

No, there's no amp in there - tone fairies and feedback goblins live inside this box.
