WTB - Subdecay Octasynth

gusman2x

Bit of a long shot, but if anyone has one that they're not diggin' then hit me up.

gusman2x

Just in case someone has one, and they weren't on the forum last night and they don't bother to go through 12 pages of les pauls

Sack that, I've bagged one of t'bay

I will have to youtube these. The name suggests it'd be something I'd want

@GavHaus I can't get YT at work, but the Prymaxe Vintage demo is tremendous. Granted I think it's probably one of those demos where they carefully select a repertoire to show the pedal off at it's best (a la Andy PGS).

However, all I really want is a pedal that will make single note solos and melodies sound synthy. This should do the trick.

Just watched the vid - sounds great! First dibs

gusman2x

Lolo @GavHaus

gusman2x

Lolo? Meant Lol...lol

GavRichList

Call me whatever you like, just gimme the pedal

Thought I'd bump this. How's the octasynth working out?

gusman2x

@GavHaus Hmmmn.

To be fair I've not really spent too much time playing with it, but that was mainly due to my initial disappointment at what sounds I could get out of it.

The release seems to quick, and in order to get a more violinesque sound out of it, but pushing the filter more creates more instability/noise.

I think there is a sweet spot for sure. I found that I got better sounds out of my jag than I did my mustang. Next step will be to try it with P90s, and probably with a e-bow.

But I think I have to come to terms with the fact that there isn't a pedal out there that can make my guitar sound like a synth (might try a C9 though)

2nd dibs :-)

how synth like do you want to be @gusman2x ?

I am guessing you dont want the glitchy 8 bit noise?

DesVegas

Try it with volume swells

gusman2x

@DesVegas yeah, I think I'll be trying it with an ebow soon.

@meltedbuzzbox yeah I was looking more for a proper synth sounded rather than the glitchy filtered sound.

meltedbuzzbox

have you tried the line 6 stuff?

Its not to bad, especially for the price
