I’m not sure exactly when these came out but they look new to me:

I saw the Chompi and I’m actually very tempted. Seems like it does a lot of what I want out of a sampler/looper thing. I might actually sell my Organelle, which I never use, to fund it

Backed the Chompi Kickstarter! Will report back when/if I receive it (in November I think).

After a leak on Reddit, Walrus has confirmed they have a budget/introductory line in the works. There are at least 8 effects in development. The next NAMM show is April 13th, so maybe we'll hear some audio then.

Leak? Release? Incontinence? Pissed-jean advertising jingle?

Referencing any alien obsessed cult that self-castrated and engaged in mass suicide. Cool cool.

Audiority drops the Dark Memory, a late-70s Memory Man tribute. It's an interesting choice that they didn't tackle the DMM, but you'll get similar sounds, as well as bonus features. There's a free demo option, and the into price is $29 (good through April).

*by engaging the delay extension (lower-left), you can expand your delay times past 4,000 miliseconds (reduces fidelity, darkens tone as well)
*randomization (I'd recommend using the paramter lock on input/output/feedback, so you don't blow up your speakers randomizing the whole panel)
*stereo option
*ducking
*bonus modulation not featured on standard Memory Man units
*sync (dotted, triplets)
*standard or HQ mode

I backed also; really looking forward to this one, seems very accessible.

EQD is dropping a new pedal. In the initial teaser clip, there's some trem/Leslie-style ramping, but it ends with an echo. I wonder if they've mashed up chorus/trem/phaser with some delay, or if the delay is just bonus processing. From the edited image, it looks like a multi-mode mod pedal (no time controls for a delay).

Looks like a vibrato/chorus/rotary thing with 6 presets. Someone listed it on Reverb already. https://reverb.com/item/67562283-earthquaker-devices-aurelius-tri-voice-chorus

Interesting. I look forward to hearing this with synths & delays.

I’ve been really liking the stuff OBNE has been coming out with lately- I think they’ve sort of found their place in the pedal world. I recently bought their Sunlight pedal and found it to be very useful and fun to play- I’d love to try their reverse, the stereo filter thing and of course this new chorus. All good stuff

I like the BL-44. I used it with different loopers, delays, and modulation devices. If you want the clock noise & lo-fi properties, it's a fairly cool complimentary tool.

It's surprising to see how much movement there's been in the chorus world this year. The Beetronics Sea Bee & now the BL-82 have brought some far less traditional sounds forward. A lot of the '82 sounds are more in the gritty delay category, rather than the shorter times of most chorus units.

Walrus Fundamentals:

$99 for drive/fuzz/distortion
$129 for the other 5

I like the reverse algo on the delay (27:18 below). I'd like to hear two of the phasers in series on synths.

interesting to hear about folks' experience with the BL-44. at first blush i was pretty interested in it, but then as i looked into it more, i was like, oh, wait.

you know what i think might be cool? a one-shot reverse that has a mode that responds to decay envelope of the input to define length of sustain, but also has an alternative mode where triggering was "polyphonic" ie., didn't re-trigger old "layers" with each new attack and allowed for limited "overdubbing" while still being essentially one shot (so kinda like the reverse version of the EHX Attack Decay, but it literally reverses the input rather than just applying a "reverse" volume envelope

is that asking too much?

or does it already exist and i've just been asleep at the switch?

ugh. reading that back, i sound like a dumbass it'd probably require hella processing resources....
