Beschreibung
Der Instant Lo-Fi Junky Vexter Series von Z.Vex ist eine modifizierte Variante des Lo-Fi Loop Junkys und erzeugte schöne Vibrato / Chorus Sounds mit einem deutlichen Lo-Fi Effekt.
Mit dem Instant Lo-Fi Junky ist es möglich Sound und Texture des Lo-Fi-Effekts in Echtheit zu erzeugen. Zusätzlich verfügt das Gerät über einen Kompressor und einen Filter (Lo-Fi). Mit Mini Toggle Schalter kann die Wellenform (Sinus, Dreieck und Rechteck) gewählt werden.
Wird der Comp / Lo-Fi Regler auf die 'Comp'-Seite gedreht, dann erzeugt das Effektpedal eine helle und klare Kompression mit beeindruckender Dynamik. Wenn der Regler auf die 'Lo-Fi'-Seite gedreht wird, dann blendet sich der Chorus Effekt langsam ein. Das klare Kompressions-Signal beginnt sich mit dem verwaschenen lo-fidelity Signal zu vermischen und erzeugt einen unverwechselbaren Sound. Der Comp / Lo-Fi Regler ermöglicht eine exakte Kontrolle über das Mix-Verhältnis des Effekts - von cleaner Kompression mit einem Hauch von Chorus über einen direkten Chorus Effekt bis hin zu einem Vibrato mit leichtem Chorus.
Der Lo-Fi Junky Vexter Series ist außerdem als handbemalte Version erhältlich.
Regelmöglichkeiten:
Volume
Tone - verändert die Helligkeit des Lo-Fi Signals, hat keinen Einfluss auf den Kompressor-Sound
Comp / Lo-Fi - kontrolliert den Sound-Mix aus Kompression und Vibrato
Speed
Depth
Waveform - kontrolliert die Wellenform der Vibrato Modulation
Features:
Vibrato / Chorus Effekt mit Echtzeit-Lo-Fi Sound
Kann mit einer 9 V Batterie oder einem 9 V DC Netzteil betrieben werden
OVERVIEW
Hello, and welcome to the world of the Instant Lo-Fi Junky ™
.
Any of you who’ve heard the sound of the Lo-Fi Loop Junky™
will understand this pedal immediately... its purpose is to imitate that sound in real time. Joel Korte, the extraor
-
dinary engineer behind this new device, was able to create a combination of THAT chip compression, Belling bucket-
brigades, and ultra low-current National Semiconductor op-amp filters to exquisitely copy the texture and feel of the
original Lo-Fi into this new and extraordinary box, adding some new sounds that have never been heard before.
To get the basic real-time Lo-Fi sound, turn the middle knob all the way to the right and set the waveform switch to
triangle. By adjusting the speed and depth it’s pretty easy to achieve a very similar texture to the original Lo-Fi Loop
Junky ™. Lower the tone knob if you wish to darken the tone. Next, try turning down the middle knob all the way toward the “comp” side. With this setting you’ll enjoy a remarkably spanky bright and clear compression. It lasts forever but has dynamics like there’s no tomorrow. As you turn the middle knob back toward the Lo-Fi side, you’ll hear the chorus blend start to happen. The sparkly clear compressed signal will mix with the smashed, lo-fidelity warbled signal and become a luscious emulsification that can be blended to the most perfect depth. Unlike other choruses where the only depth control you have is the depth of the sweep oscillator, this unit lets you set exactly how much of the two signals are present in the mix... more clear compression if you want the sound to be basically clean with a hint of chorus, blended 1-to-1 for pure chorusing sound, or mostly vibrato with a hint of chorus by turning the knob mostly to the right. The chorus sound sounds most traditional with either the sine or triangle setting. They are subtly but noticeably different.
Now try switching the waveform to square and set the middle knob mostly to the compression side (to the left). You can blend in just enough of the square-wave modulated Lo-Fi sound to make it really eerie. For the spookiest sound, set the speed control to the tempo of your performance and the depth all the way up, adjusting the mix for just enough modulation. I really love this setting... it’s so unusual and fun. We had a producer come through our booth at the NAMM show when we were demonstrating the Instant Lo-Fi in 2011, and we turned it off to show how much sustain the compressor had when it was engaged. He looked at Erik (our demonstrator) quizzically and said “
but why would I ever want to turn it off? ” Maybe you’ll feel the same way about the Instant Lo-Fi. It’s dangerously addictive.
OPERATION
Plug your guitar into the input jack and your amp into the output jack (or you might mix it with other pedals). It can be
anywhere in the chain, providing different textures depending on it’s position in the lineup.
