2022: A Year in Gear (What You've Bought or Want to Buy in 2022)

Sure, but just pointing out that once you actually get the thing you GASsed over most of the time it instantly goes away until the next target of your affections pops up.

Exactly correct. Which is why I have mostly just stopped buying things.

Bought a bit of HW for my bass

That looks rad!

[revvy]

Yea it’s a stunner, emerald green sparkle too, which my pic doesn’t capture.

My rig is all boxed up thousands of mikes away so I can’t actually use it for a few months but it cheers me up just owning it lol

TipTop Audio ZVerb arrived. I just needed a reverb, and I've got... sound design monster
Formant filters in reverb and some other combinations of reverb and delay are really cool they were well thought out.
Select 'typical' reverb -> turn Fidelity to a minimum, then a bit higher to get bitcrusher noise - move it a bit, tweak, then turn it higher = instead of reverb, now you have Aphex-Twin-glitch-o-matic thingy. Crazy!

Doepfer Wasp Filter must smoke too much stuff because it's still en route (with long pauses between every step of its journey).

i don't know the reverb but it does sound fun
formant filtering reverb, i can imagine that's nice

[toonertik]

I have the perfect cure… buy it!

Never thought of that...silly me!

I'd have to sell something first. The fundage pond is somewhat shallow what with christmas rapidly approaching.
I did sell a guitar once and I've never quite recovered from that traumatic experience...

Yeah tell me..
I had a vox tear drop way back in about 1968.. sold it in 1971/72... (((((

Right after I wrote that, I changed preset and in no way I can replicate this glitchy effect again. But I showed recording of another tweaking to my friend and he said that it sounds like a car engine. It's not something that I often hear when reverb is described

Ordered a second one of those little 1U Mosaic dual output thingummys. With the ES6 that’s going to give me 10 channels of audio into my DAW, more than enough because each mono analog voice seems a lot more full fat than soft synths tend to. Though I did watch Rob Papen demo some mad upcoming Blue III presets that don’t leave any room for other instruments.

Anyone know if these are the same algorithms as on the ZVerbz cards for the ZDSP?

[whyterabbyt]

Oh FFS. Google first, ask second, you moron.

" The ZVERBZ cards have all of the ZVERB program but most of them are expanded to true stereo input for much less than the module."

Okay, something new on the All-Consuming Acquisition List.

There's a bit more info in User Guide.
Also: "an internal analog clock circuitry drives the DSP chip adds to the lush and warm audio processing". I don't know if it really adds something or it's just marketing blah blah.

[whyterabbyt]

Yeah, the ZDSP is much more flexible. Now ordered a set of the ZVerbz cards (fae Signal Sounds in mah hametoon of sunny Glesga.)

I have no doubts about it. Unfortunately, my salary is on a level of a bum from Easterhouse So, I had to take a model for "poor and homeless eurorack users"
