Title: TC Mimiq doubler
Post by: Leevibe on October 17, 2016, 11:47:23 PM
I think this is pretty cool.

It definitely sounds different than what you get with a short delay. Not so phase-crippled sounding to me. On some settings in stereo I can't localize the guitar, but I kind of like that. I think this could help make a massive lead tone, and I wonder if it would make for some nice crunch rhythm.

The pedal sounds really great.  I now wished I hadn't open your post because I surely don't need another pedal but I want one now.  I really think it would add a lot to your rhythm sound also. Well Christmas isn't very far off LOL.

Isn't this basically a harmonizer that doesn't so much harmonize but only doubles? With just a little flutter added to give the impression of imperfections? Not that that there is anything wrong with that. Wouldn't mind having a full blown harmonizer which had that as well. Maybe the next step?

Yeah - I think you're essentially right, but there's some kind of extra goodness going on in the algorithm that is randomizing timing and pitch enough to keep it more natural sounding. I doubt I'll ever buy one, but I could see myself maybe owning something like an H9 someday. It would be cool to have an algorithm like this show up in a fancy pants delay.

Mimik - Mimiq
Total Recall - Tonal Recall

I'm noticing a pattern here!

Anyway, that thing is pretty neat.

Ohh, Keeley Dark Side too! I should sub-contract my services for pedal naming!

Band Name: Laughter Knife

This is definitely the examplar in its category, but I think I'd personally favor the Keeley 30mms or the EHX Analogizer. I like the more eccentric implementations.

I'm really excited for this pedal. I remember reading that John Petrucci always used a delay or echo pedal set really short to mimic dual tracking live. Back when his tone was actually good (2000's ish). So I've always done that whenever I play live. This looks like it will work much, much better.
