Ring (and/or Balanced) Modulation for the modulator masses

[BetterOffShred]

I've been contemplating buying one of those little Chinese oscilloscopes for a while. Having seen it used in this video.. I probably will

The Ring Stinger seems fairly rad!

My crazy CoPilot Ring Mod should be coming some time this year. I think I ordered it in March but gave Mr. Adam some ambiguous and demanding technical specs He's put a lot of effort into it so I'm excited to see what happens.

After that comes in I will have three stand alone ring modulators. Although a Puhzing might tempt me...

[Chankgeez]

Yeah, I still wanna Puhzing too.

[$harkToootth]

They're the right price and they sound sooo gooood. I love the stand alone control for 'Dry' and the Expression Input.
RMA's stuff is tempting me too...but it's not readily available and I refuse to do another pre-order for anything...ever. I just love that his stuff is so unique in its application.

[BetterOffShred]

I definitely want another Copilot pedal. That bananas Delay or a ring-mod might be just the ticket. I love the Polypus Supreme, and I'm really excited about using its sequencer out too .. I am oldschool man, usually just a loudass amp turned up and some fuzz or OD with other noises.

What's that pedal that's like the size of a 50 cent piece .. Hotone or something.. their little ring mod deal sounds pretty good IMO

[$harkToootth]

I think I'm old school too, in application. I try to get some wild sounds but when I look at the gear I'm using and quantity of said gear in a set up (I use usually 4 pedals in a chain...MAYBE 5 sometimes) I'm not exactly reinventing the wheel

Even in my early teens I was a fan of modulation and filtering so I remember playing in front of my family with copious amounts of phase or flange and always some chorus on my RP500. My Dad would say, "Don't make it weird..."

Which is why the RMA stuff is appealing. it's like another dialect or accent in my native tongue.

Thanks! Yeah, everything I make is currently build to order, given the fact that I enjoy designing new stuff (and therefore the product range is growing) it's looking like it'll be that way for the foreseeable future. I'll try and find a way to fit windows of model runs into the mix, my workflow is still hindered a bit by the new space/unpacking (or more specifically the lack thereof) but improvements are slow, steady, and underway.

To stay on topic here's a picture of the unpopular long-box variant of the RMA Monobius ring mod with optional expression input that places frequency sweep on a treadle or other freewheeling potentiometer type of doodad.

I apologize, that was not a criticism in any way Sir. Your stuff is rad!

No apology necessary, no offense taken. I'm well aware of where I'm at and I know that my current functional model does not strike everyone as enticing.. it's good to be reminded of it, gives me focal points to rectify.

[lordgalvar]

Monobius is at the top of my book!

I need to do an excane style ring mod shot.

Gigahearts showin' & tellin' about ring modulator:

Nice! I was doing that for a while...kinda didn't finish doing that.

Those little oscilloscopes are fun for that kinda stuff. I connected one to a pedal, lwave style. ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=POf0JhXB ... ZoAihS9nR_ )

The mtl.asm and copilot's are all fun! I like them all. The C.A. ring mod is unweildy but fun for noise...puhzing is way more controllable and stable/totally solid. All the copilots have features that I like in different situations.

Phasing it old buchla style. Watched that video before and I guess I wasn't paying attention.

[Chankgeez]

there weren't no ring mod, but I liked it when Bastl were doing that live stream of a patch a few days ago and had it scope'd.

(… and Monobius is a monster. Especially the one I've got because it's purple. )

[BetterOffShred]

I gave my buddy my Wolf Bagger, but I loved using that with the fuzz gun a tremolo pedal a delay and a reverb. That was a fun sound wall

Fancy! I didn't know about any live stream. Bastl is always good fun.

Think the only time I watched a live stream was Coachella to get good and angry about the stuff I going to be dragged to by friends haha.
