Alright here is the signal path:
Yamaha SGV300 (thanks, Dandolin!) -> LAL 86 -> Boss DSD-2 -> Sunn Beta Lead

Into the trigger in I basically ran the flange out of a Deluxe Electric Mistress. The Direct out of the DEM went to the input of the Seppuku Mind Warp then back to the the input of the DEM.

I didn't use it as a sampler. This is all bleed over from the trigger input from the zero-input feedback loop of the DEM. The Delayed signal is there, but somewhat hard to hear because of the microphone I guess.

When I did this with the Digitech EX-7, the delay was more pronounced (I assume because the feedback loop created less volume but I don't know ).

Also added my signal path for the previous DSD video above.

(Wow, just noticed somebody disliked one of my videos...haha. I dunno why they would go out of their way to find it (not really listed) and then dislike it...funny! I must of really pissed someone off. )

[Dandolin]

Yeehaw! SGV300 on the outbound trajectory! I like it!

[Dandolin]

OK, so now I gotta know, what delay pedals have external tap tempo input?

Boss DD5/DD7/DD20/RE20/(DD500(?))
Eighty Tape Limbo II
EHX DMM 550-TT
Modded MXR Carbon Copy
Modded TC Nova
Modded Line 6 DL4/M Series
Modded EHX delays
Eventide Timefactor
Strymeline and other Strymelays
Visual Sound Tap Delay
Marshall Echohead
Behringer DD600
Some JHS jawn merhumblegrumble
?
?


Particularly interested in small and cheap and not-needing-to-be-modded....

Query whether some of the fancier-pants pedals on that list can be tricked into glitching using the lordgalvar method though. People need to send that jawn into Dandolin Glitch Labs for testing.

I'd better get cracking at seeing what I can glitch on a delay with midi control like the M5. My Strymline is gone (praise Obamacare) and I'm trying to avoid buying still more expensive delays to get my glitch on, but I'm holding on to my MP201 and SQ1 with cold dead hands, so I should be able to do some crazy ass glitching even if I never get more than a few spare dollars....

EHX DMM 550-TT
DD-7
There is a mod for the Carbon Copy I have seen a few pictures of.
There is a mod for the TC Nova too.

Me thinks you could just replace the tap tempo switch on a lot of delays or just make it so that you could switch between the cv jack or the switch.

I feel like we are missing some really obvious ones.

What about modulation pedals with tap tempo inputs?

Check this out: http://www.diystompboxes.com/smfforum/index.php?topic=86294.0 <--it isn't as cool as I thought, but it should work with your synthrotek kit.

Cool clips, Galvar. You got some really interesting sounds outta the DSD-2.

Thanks bud! If I had my hands free, maybe I would of tried harder to play the guitar.

Wonder what that cv tap tempo would do to a boss RC-2 Looper? Or the Boss RC-30?

edit: read up on the RC-2 a bit. Seems like either it would constantly change loops or it would do nothing?

[Dandolin]

Seems like either it would constantly change loops or it would do nothing?

Actually, I think it could be awesome if it changed loops as triggered by cv gate input.

I do too. Gotta put one on the list (unless you have one and want to test it for me...I will build ya something). They do go for like 90-115 . I don't have a looper...(don't really want one beyond testing for glitchy either though). Kinda torn on if I should get one or not?

[lordgalvar]

MASF Biloma (see above)
LAL 88 (it goes on b/c Lord G sez so, but I'd love to hear an example of its crackliness--off to utoob)

DE Test Pattern maybe? (who if anyone is building these now?)

What else? Help me make a complete list fellow glitchnauts....

rfurtkamp put a link to the schem (or somebody did not too long ago) for the test pattern.

What I want to know is what are you defining as "crackle"? I am thinking crackle like the old E13 Tri-Fuzz crackle...but maybe I am missing something? Anyway, give me an example and I will see what I can make with the 88, biloma, and I think gomorrah/rattle crow combo. Maybe Lluna too?

Like the sound when the guy presses the left switch in that demo? (I've never played a fuck...don't know)...

Sorry if I am being kinda dumb...haha. Just trying to make sure I ain't talking out my ass.

Ring mod crackle?

[Uncle Grandfather]

. I don't have a looper...

You have a looper mode on your ic water
Cool stuff also

Oh yea! I should plug that in some day.

Dang. Too many things/pedals again.

Thanks UG. I'm tryin' to get better.

[Dandolin]

Nah, it's all good; I'm interested in all of that.

Terminology.

I feel like I'm on TGP discussing woodiness of neck pickups and creaminess of Dumbles and hauntedness of mids.

I love literally all of what you mentioned. I just want my shit to sound all fucked up like my head and heart do sometimes. But only sometimes, so I want it in a pedal you can stomp on. I can't get my thing anymore from just cranking an amp and maybe stomping a single distortion at the beginning of the night and leaving it there. That's for the angry young men and the blues lawyers. I'm something far worse like, idk, a crust lawyer.

I really don't know, except that it soothes me somehow to hear some brokenness mixed into the dynamic--like a lot of us here in this now, I guess I'm kinda like a cracked mirror-I wanna reflect the brokenness inside and out back at anyone/anything looking, like, "Is this what you were looking for? Is this what you wanted?"

Except it's not as self-loathing as it sounds. Because I think that shi sounds beautiful. Broken is beautiful babies!

end first-world ennui jadedfesto.

Anyway, I love the constant background radio/vinyl static crackle, and the "lookout she's gonna blow" dying amp crackle, and the "this circuit is so fucked the voltage can barely make it from end to the other" crackle, and the "i am now Tetsuo the 8th and I'd like to see you try and capture my rage with that handheld muthafukkin camera fukkin keep up with this" crackle.

Yeah tl/dr was invented for wankers like me, so tl/dr?

Yes, all of those crackle.

[lordgalvar]

I get it now! I think maybe I was thinking more sputterty? haha.

Let me mess with some stuff and report back (might be tomorrow because wednesdays suck).

Woodliness/creaminess/transparent/etc. are things I never got though. Everything is either full bore or not with me, haha. Like pickups are either hi, medium, or low output which is a term for how my fuzz reacts and that's it.

That DSD-2 trick with putting something to bleed over from the trigger in will work for this though got some neat stuff that way that is kinda like a dusty record.

What about making a ZVEX SHO with an LFO that modulates the "crackle ok" knob (or a TIP third hand, or a servo radio control setup from an RC plane) and then goes into a compressor/limiter so that the volume is even?

[Dandolin]

Great ideas as usual, sir!

I'm going to try 'em out. I really want a TIP 3rd Hand for stuff like that or manipulating Seppuku stuff which is so knob-turn-friendly but not on the automation tip....

List amended.

I totally sympathize with your pickup nomenclature rubric need to fuzz out.

[Dandolin]

Delay w/external tap tempo list above has been updated--let's keep that list rolling--this is a cheap way for peeps to get their glitch on with a pedal they might already be using....
