Re: d e t u n e
Yeah it's a real pain in the keister to dig it out and use its weird power supply. My "studio" is very tiny and I don't have much desktop space either. But god damn it sounds good. The quad chorus on it is pretty LllLlLlluuuuUUUUuUUUUuush too.

Re: d e t u n e
my favourite chorus sound is using the mono delay and setting it so it pans between the channels. huge without the polarity cancellation!

Re: d e t u n e
My d e t u n e needs may be different than other peoples (seems like a lot of mentions of harmonizing, pitch shifting here). I need a Whammy style pitch drop (I can actually use a Whammy but it's huge relative to what I need it for, and I would like stereo in/out too). But only a half step or full step in pitch. Like the first 5% of a slow dive bomb.
It irks me that my Roland 404 cannot do a simple pitch or speed adjustment that my $40 Eno micro Looper can do. Yes, I know that the 404 has Pitch in the effects menu, but the way that the 404 employs effects (control knobs are at whatever setting you had them when you were last doing something else... basically worthless to me for live performance). I wish there was a dedicated speed/pitch knob instead of multi-purpose knobs that need to control everything else.
I just want to drop the pitch or speed on a loop like a slow subtle Bigsby type of bend (I don't need rad dive bombing) and be able to control the duration and depth in a live situation. I've gotten good suggestions here before, but they just don't seem to work for me, the way I want them to work (Pitchfactor has too big of a sweep to control, Brainwaves' stomp switch is not the right control mechanism, delays always seem to add delay flavor or color the sound once they get turned on). Maybe the best place to control the speed or pitch of a loop is within the loop source itself?Although if I was playing multiple loops (like with a 404) I would want all the loops to be effected at the same time.
I like the psychological effect when the speed or pitch of music drags a little. But I can't seem to set that up for live performance.

Re: d e t u n e
this is probably a bad suggestion, but I love the way the speed/pitch drop on my Electribe ES-1 sounds — but you’d have to be cool w/ 32khz, lol

Re: d e t u n e
I love the Aqueduct, the only EQD pedal that I've tried that has stuck around for an extended period. In stereo, love it on the ENV-P setting on one side and a some tape WOW (via a Gen Loss or Bygones etc) on the other.
