thanks Sean! this effect seems to use one of the strengths of the se-50... wide ranging and very finely graduated parameters... here's another boss abuse : in the stereo pitch shifter, if you set one shifter an octave down, the other an octave up and turn the cross-feedback way up (setting a >100ms pre-delay on both shifters) you get this very distinctive resonance.. hmmm.. maybe this is dependent on the exact pre-delay i have set (which i cant remember... something like 300 and 400 ms) but i'm guessing not.... anything you play gets transformed into this glassy pipe organ thing... brad Sean Witters wrote: > If anyone is using a Boss Se-50 here's a seriously demented short loop >idea. > I suspect this will also work on the Boss Se-70, Roland Gp-8, and Gp-16 > since they are all related, try this on the GT-5 and see if it works.
