Copilot?


Recommended Posts

I just read that The Android doesn't really do clean ring mod sounds. Is this true? I kind of want one, but I may have to sacrifice board space for a Frequency Analyzer.

 

 

This is true. It's a fun ring mod, but it's not a clean one by any means.

yep the android isnt a clean ring mod, it has more a lofi voicing wich makes it sound a little dirty, I stopped building temporarily androids so i can focus finishing the antdroid (android + antenna), wich the sound will be less dirty but not uber clean, like the ehx FA wich is the cleanest ring mod out there (awesome too)

It's pretty cool that this thread popped up. I'm in the market for a new ring mod.

I currently use a ToneFactor Red K and I do like it BUT you always hear the carrier signal and it is quite dirty.

I was trying to find something cleaner, no audable carrier signal and still the same size (standard MXR for those who don't know). I was thinking about the andriod, but now maybe not.

Is the EHX Frequency Analyzer my only choice? I'd really rather not get a pedal quite so large if I can help it.

I think my question has already been answered above, but any further ideas would be good.

I have no doubts that copilot fx are great, all of the demos I have watched were awesome, unfortunately I need a ring mod that can do clean. Picked up the Freq. Ana. Just about to try it out, Ill post back about my thoughts later, after I finish building a new board.

I think the mothership will be also a clean ring mod (40v adapter), also the moog can do some clean RM tones. I dont think there's a mxr size clean ring mod, due the complexity of the circuit to have a clean RM sound, if size isnt a big issue, i think the frostwave also may provide clean RM due it ran in AC voltage

Yeah, I believe the Frostwave is the smallest "clean" ring mod. It's a Frequency Analyzer based circuit with some tweaks apparently.
