Anyone have any idea what delay (and effect) settings Steve Hillage is using in the beginning of the song "Meditation of the Snake" from the Fish Rising album?
Think he used an Echoplex back in those days. I can hear a wah (or filter) and delay combined with some fast hammer-ons. But I can not hear how the delay is set exactly.
Playing along with those old Gong and Steve Hillage records again. Great stuff!
EDIT: toyed around with it a little more today. Think I got it. It's a long delay set to about 690-700ms (or 1/4 dot). Not sure how long the delay times of the original Echoplex were?
The long delay is combined with a wah with a lower frequency range at the heel position. Left hand playes fast open string hammer on sextuplets.
Here is the patch. Any improvements or suggestions?
