by the way… on the synth lead tone - wouldn’t it be better if you wouldn’t just turn on the vibrato but put it in bypass loop after volume pedal for more natural blending effect?

You would need a volume pedal that would cross fade into a separate loop or a pan pedal that would pan to another channel and then to a mixer to recombine the signal split into one output.
Yes, it would be a smoother transition into the vibrato effect, but for simplicity sake I went with a straight series chain.
I am not sure who makes a volume pedal that cross fades into a separate loop.

i mean like from the send of TB loop to volume pedal then to the vibrato and from vibrato to return of the Tb loop…  so you could blend the signal from the loop to your original signal

i think it doesn’t even matter if the volume is before or after the vibrato

or im just dumb :freak: because TB loopers probably aren’t made parallel to your dry signal… i just realized

your solution is more simple

Dark Axel,
Well it has to be a series loop for the vibrato as any blend of the vibrato and straight signal would turn the vibrato into a chorus effect.
In the case of the Clone Theory the difference between chorus and vibrato is just the the vibrato and zero dry signal added.
I looked around today for a commercial volume pedal that uses a external loop and found none.
If I find something I will post.
It would be a cool thing to have.

ok, sorry for bothering you with this :D i didn’t realize the problematic of vibrato/chorus difference - i’m not into choruses that much so i don’t know much about them

No bother at all!!
You have a great idea.

Morley makes something that does something similar to this:

I’m sure there are others?

nneekolas,
Thank you, that is it!
I should have that one!!

Years ago I had a Morley “Oil Can"delay pedal.
It was GIANT!!!!!!!!!!!

morley pedals are always too big for me

yeah? and what isn’t? :D you are complaining about size of pedals like all the time :D

Well, Bill… that’s something you could use cool

Great work Bill! This is fantastic information, keep it coming!

Thanks sonikbliss!
I am working on a new video as we speak.
Thanks for writing.

Hi awesome effectology

sorry if this question’s a bit silly but would the portamento (synth) at the end of this effectology not be able to be done with the hog? not the tone of the synth but like a hog and micro synth together work for the portamento part?

Thanks tuskbane!

The portamento effect in the V256 is very different than the glide effect in the HOG.
The HOG must be in freeze mode before it will slide to the next note.
The V256 does it automatically when you change notes.
The sound of the effect is very different as well.
