Members hangwire Posted January 23, 2007 Members Share Posted January 23, 2007 I just heard this song again after years and years... what is the effect setting and how is he doing the modulated/effected sound? What paramaters or settinsg are necessary to achieve this from a non-polychorus pedal [i am pretty sure that is teh pedal he used...] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members vigor&kandor Posted January 23, 2007 Members Share Posted January 23, 2007 I and pretty sure it is an original EHX polychorus EDIT: so you know it is a polychorus then.... Even if you had a polychorus i am not sure you could make those noises. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members T3 Posted January 23, 2007 Members Share Posted January 23, 2007 it's a polychorus and he's bending the strings... it sounds almost exactly the same live, so i'm sure thats all there is to it, but i can't really think of another way to get exactly that sound...

Would it need a flanger with delay at x seconds and depth and rate tuned up to y? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members vigor&kandor Posted January 23, 2007 Members Share Posted January 23, 2007 I bet maybe the Ibanez PM-7 phase modulator may do the trick.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members hangwire Posted January 23, 2007 Author Members Share Posted January 23, 2007 it's just a polychorus and ds-2 does anyoen actually read threads anymore? I established that I knew the pedal, I wanted to know parameter settings so I can pull it off with a delay flanger I own if possible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members hangwire Posted January 23, 2007 Author Members Share Posted January 23, 2007 kurt's handwritten settings... thanks... nee dto go find a pic of a polychorus now to get the pot parameter/funtion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Lone Flanger Posted January 23, 2007 Members Share Posted January 23, 2007 Well if it helps, I got it from a warbly ass flanger I had when I ran it at 12 volts (wouldn't do the same sound on 9v). It's been a while but most if it came from setting the thing up to almost self-oscillate and then kind of detune at the same time if that makes sense. I think I cranked the feedback knob up pretty high and set the rate to where it sounded "wobbly". I know that doesn't help too much since we don't have the same pedal but I tried to get the sound for that song out of a flanger and was somewhat successful.

Members hangwire Posted January 23, 2007 Author Members Share Posted January 23, 2007 the bottom knob is "tune"... what that the delay time? I though I remember this pedal controlled delay time with one of the knobs, and that seems to be it by process of elimination... any confrimation?

Members theweight Posted January 24, 2007 Members Share Posted January 24, 2007 I have a vintage Small Stone that comes really close to those sounds when I hit the gain hard on my amp and twiddle the knob. Not much in the world more fun than making noise with your guitar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Seth Carmody Posted January 24, 2007 Members Share Posted January 24, 2007 I've read that Kurt's handwritten settings won't work with the Polychorus RI. You can do it with an Electric Mistress, at least the old battery ones. Just max the Range and Colour and set the rate accordingly then hit the bastard with a huge distorted signal.

I established that I knew the pedal, I wanted to know parameter settings so I can pull it off with a delay flanger I own if possible Does anyone know how to experiment for themselves!!! You need a chorus that can achieve runaway feedback...set it so that it starts to self-oscillate and then bend the strings at the 12th and 14th fret on the G and B string and alternately the B and high E string. Kurt's settings don't work with the RI, but you can still get that sound. Just turn the sweep filter off, turn up the width and feedback and bend the strings some and you can do it. You can sorta get the same effect with the DMM with the chorus turned up really high, but its a lot less "in your face" and you have to do a lot more bending.
