Copilot FX Caracol (now with guitar video)

Postby autopilot » Wed Mar 24, 2010 9:01 pm

Ok, the Caracol is an octave up pedal (when nothing is plugged in the source/ctrl jack) with the option of clean or dirty and the cool thing is that it has an external source jack so you can plug almost anything there an create some interesting, wild, crazy, mellow, etc sounds. The external source will work as a carrier, so if you split your signal in 2, one goes to the in jack and in the other end you add other pedals it will create some crazy stuff that will open lots of sonic boundaries and unlock sounds in your head that you wont be able to achieve normally with guitar. Or better borrow one of the outputs of your bass player or keys player and let their harmonies led your way to sonic heaven. Plug an external oscillator or frequency generator and sir you have a ring modulator. Honestly the only limitation is your imagination to go and conquer some news sonic territories.

Indeed. Does it make swooshy sounds like a real seashell?


i think it could, if you plug an arrow + modulated filter + modulated delay it will create some hollowly sounds that will modulate the input signal

I did a quick video (like all the videos i do :facepalm: ), this is the straight pedal, in the last 50 seconds i used the external source jack, by plugging a cable and touching the other end, since the human electrical frequency is 62-68hz in normal conditions the result is a ring modulated sound in the key of B, so there's a chance it could be use it as lie detector perhaps :idea: :excellent: . So be sure to get your contact mics because this will let you jam with the natural frequencies of the earth / environment / objects around you.

I plan to do more videos of it on the weekend specially using the external source jack so we can have fun
