Re: Count To Five
Anyone seen the new Chase Bliss mood pedal? Think it sounds a lot like the Count to Five pedal! Think they have 'borrowed' some things or where 'inspired' by it or something. What do you think?

Re: Count To Five
I own both and they are incredibly different beasts. I guess slip mode could be 'inspired' by the CT5, as it's somewhat similar to mode 1, but that's about it. I see CT5 as much more of a looper, where Mood is much more of a granular effect.sitarman wrote:Anyone seen the new Chase Bliss mood pedal? Think it sounds a lot like the Count to Five pedal!

Re: Count To Five
I'd have to agree - the CT5 is able to inspire me to create from nothing, i.e. just a single note could turn into a song idea.MrNovember wrote:I own both and they are incredibly different beasts.

Re: Count To Five
I still find the CT5 vitally important for discovering "happy accidents" while improvising.
This is all one take... with two Drolo Stamme[n] feeding the CT5.

Re: Count To Five
I don't find them too similar at all. I have the Mood feeding the Ct5 and I think it works rather nicely. I find the Ct5 easier to get repeatable results with. The Mood is more of a happenstance machine. (This could be to me only having it since the summer whereas I have had the Ct5 for a couple years now and am a lot more familiar with it.)sitarman wrote:Anyone seen the new Chase Bliss mood pedal?

Re: Count To Five
I just recently got my head around mode 3 of the count to 5. SO killer when you use it in a tabletop setup where you can access knobs...particularly the hidden functions from the Q switch allowing you to fade in the different play heads and even control the sequencing a little.
What an amazing little box.

Just tried this, nice!cosmicevan wrote:Oooh so tasty...
I use almost the same setting but with lenb and feedback turned almost to zero to get a tremolous pitch shifter!

I'm still excited by this idea FWIWmulti_s wrote:
it is just "alternate" implementations of similar patches. ie mode 1: a different take on pitch shifting delay, mode 2: a different take on random chopping, mode 3: a different take on layering.
