Ohmygodohmygodohmygod. Ok, so I'd been trying to decide on a bitcrusher for a while, and got outbid on ebay a couple of times going for Iron Ether Frantabits...and then Pedals & Effects dropped the first demo for this baby back in January. I called off the search at that point. I finally got mine today, and it's ridiculous. The bit crushing is really only a small element of the overall package, but it's so clean and quiet and exactly what I needed. Beyond that the filter is amazing, and is definitely something you want an expression pedal for. From the demos I'd gotten a grasp of the sequencer, but hadn't realised you can sequence pitch, crushiness or filter settings. It's ridiculous. Oh, AND it glitches! It's roughly the same size as a Source Audio Nemesis, and they look lovely next to each other on my board. I haven't even tried it with other pedals yet, so there's endless silliness ahead. Love it.

I'd been looking at the otto bit jr too. Interesting pedals. Need a full report @VJIves ,with clips
Even just a slight sample rate reduction and a touch of filter and you get a melanchonic sound for quiet arpeggios.
This pedal shows its bitcrushing is Made especially for guitar. You can get nice ballsy fuzz too.
Well, of course the frequency of its use depends on what kind of music you play.
Sorry if I sound like a fanboi, But man I'm loving it so much.
But I'm also waiting on the MPC Live to drop, so I might just wait a while longer and test them together.
Really excited about the possibilities of the Ottobit Jr.
That's not to say I won't
I was thinking, what if you got a delay that had an effects loops (Like a DMM or the upcoming Rubberneck) and put the Ottobit Jr in the effects loop? You could have bitcrushed, sequenced delays. That you could control. And are recallable by MIDI.
Oh buddy!

Now I have some more interesting pedals, I ought to try again.
Stereo TRS Jack to 2x Mono TS Jacks.
But most fun mf101 related thing to do is as a self oscollating tone generator..
Thanks
This and a delay? Any good?
I've got one, and love it.
