Hi all!
I'm working on rebuilding an effect from a PCM80 that's built on the glide>hall algorithm. It's basically built on 2 + 6 modulated delay lines plus reverb. The end effect is simply a mono flange into a stereo chorus with a nice delay - but the precise timing of the delay lines is crucial for the correct imagining and haas effect. I'm stoked with the tone from the PCM but frankly I don't want to have yet another box to deal with plus programming with the matrix UI on the PCM is a huge pain in the rear end.
Is there any way to access more than the 2 built in delay lines in the AxeFx? The multi-delay is awesome but its nothing like what I need - unless there's a way to reduce the tap count to 1. I'd happily trade the (to me!) useless mega-delay for 2 -4 more raw delay lines. Are there delays hiding in other effects that we can use?
I guess I've gotten spoiled by having so many amazing effects right at my fingertips that I've forgotten how awesome it is just just build up effects from primitives like delays, eqs, and LFOs. In the beginning that was the promise of the AxeFx right? You could build ANY effect from the tools in the toolbox. Maybe we've gone too far to the other side now and have all become consumers of canned effects rather than building our own from scratch. The PCM has opened my eyes to the power of programming at a much lower level - I just love my AxeFX and it's incredible sound and UI.
I'd love to be able to access the power of this crazy box at a lower level. I know that's more of a wish list item but maybe someone can help me find delays that are hidden in present effects?
Thanks!
