Haha, everything was just wrong today... couldn't find anything, hands aren't working...and I kept playing that one dumb "melody" (I mean chain of random notes) that my head convinced me is correct...haha...mostly though the phone just didn't pick up any of the goodness of the spacefuzz...

I just want to play fast and faster... :animal: :lol:

Thanks Chankgeez :hug:

Those demos were sick!

I'm glad to hear the modes affect the looper. I was wondering if loop was a mode that wouldn't allow the other modes to be used, im glad that isnt the case.

This pedal is definitely gonna make it into the noise rig, doubt ill be able to have dependable results on it with the guitar rig.

@UG - yeah I'm definitely scoping out the LAL Misty Cave. I want so many delays hnng

Anyone got demos on the Kompakt Kasset? I'm so hype to get mine and run some actual cassettes thru it!!! :!!!:

That was awesome LG, when the spacefuzz comes in at 230ish :!!!: I need one of them :lol:
Pretty sure we have the same bend, they were from the same batch...assuming he did the same thing to them all haha.

So what I did if you wanna try:
Time/Repeats full clockwise
Toggle all the way up in trails.
Bottom extra knob fully clockwise.
Put in HOLD mode and stomp to start recording, red light will flash, stomp to stop. Right away the loop with be glitch/repeater style. If it plays the loop like normal then time to turn the bottom knob full counterclockwise to "reset" everything. The pedal will pop and the sound will stop. Then turn the bottom knob full clockwise and try again. Not sure how important the time/repeat settings are cause they dont seem to affect the sound at all when the loop is playing, but thats the way they were set when it was doing this for me. I was able to get it to do this over and over for quite awhile, then i took a break and when I came back it wouldn't do this, had to keep tweaking away and finally was able to get it act this way again. Using that bottom knob as a "reset" seems key when in HOLD mode.

So yeah, that's what I did. If you change modes and it starts to glitch out in other ways and makes those lazer/watery sounds time the run with it haha. otherwise its time to "reset" the bottom knob and try again. Otherwise you should be able to get your sound on sound, on haha. Its amazing the loops you can build up as it takes from what you're playing and adds it to the loop and you can slowly morph the rhythm and texture.

Its such an amazing pedal. literally EVERY time i pull it out I get unique and different results depending on how i turn the knobs or what other pedals I'm using with it etc. Once i find something I like its time to take a mental note of whats doing what knob wise, and then find what makes it "reset". usually the bottom knob has some sort of effect on how the pedal is glitching out and turning it full one way or the other resets it over again. its not impossible to get the pedal to do something cool it did once before, but it keep doing crazy awesome new stuff haha.

I haven't messed with the mode switch too much...that is probably why! I did at some point (think I cut it from the video) move to tap hold mode and it got very reverbish...but not. haha

Thanks for the tips man! I think that was literally the fourth time I've played with it for an extended time...so more learning! haha (I did get this thing by accident...sorry Strange Tales...)

So I decided to fuck around with my IC Water after hearing yr guys stuff. And then I decided to flange the fuck out of it. Sounds like you're really underwater with the CBA ramping the Zero knob up and down.

lordgalvar wrote:tap hold mode
maybe that is what is going on with the glitchy/repeater effect I was getting. didn't know it had a tap hold mode haha. perhaps its in tap hold mode you can cycle through modes and get sound on sound...but in looper mode it switches to normal when you change modes? that would explain why i couldn't get it to sound on sound. i pretty much just used the shortest loop i could so maybe i actually just put in it hold mode? maybe?...need to experiment haha :thumb: should probably read the manual on the nux time core why i'm at it :lol:

Nice demo Strange Tales! You are getting awesome videos out these days (always were good, but you are getting a sound!). Plus I got the ugly one that was meant for you and you got a prettier one that has a knob!

I think it is a tap hold mode? I think what it does is it keeps the effect on so you can use the bypass switch to set tempo? I honestly don't know haha. I probably should read the manual too. UC, where are ya?

Yea, agreed on the memory loss...but with that one, you'll never know what exactly to expect when ordering (but it isn't as random as IC Water, IC Flanger or KK).

:idk:

I have the manual somewhere, but I don't think I've messed around with that tap hold thing you're talking about.

Awesome clips, everyone! I'll throw in my old Digital Water demo. No fuzz though. Just some mellow notes. #tonewood

Yeah I was thinking about that one too, but it sounded really similar to the ICW (?) I wasnt sure which I'd rather have so I went with the ICW for that sweet 16s looper (I mean seriously who does 16 second loopers on delay pedals)
