I’m constantly amazed at what people keep coming up with using the fv-1. For example, the chase bliss MOOD takes advantage of the clock speed of the chip to change the effects.

Totally. Over the past year I’ve gone from thinking I “don’t like FV-1 hardware” to realizing that it’s just a platform, and what matters most is the care taken (or not taken) in designing for that platform.

It just so happens to be a platform that a lot of shops use for their first digital exploration, and thus over-indexes for lackluster, slightly boring implementations.

Watching Tom from Cooper FX pull magic out of that chip really changed my mind.

Wish he would just make more of his pedals.

I think he’s trying! One man shop. What we really need is to clone Tom.

Recently grabbed a quadraverb without knowing exactly what to expect. I was surprised that it can actually do long, lush tails, not at all metallic as I expected.

I wonder if it would make a sense to create a list of pedals/modules using Spin FV-1. BAM and Mood has been mentioned and there probably are many more. Arcades pedal comes to mind, also Dervish module…

The Tiptop ZDSP uses one, as do the Erica Synths Pico DSP and Black Hole DSP.

Actually, I know someone who’s making a 2HP expander that allows you to use the ZDSP cards with the Pico or Black Hole DSP modules (the 3 controls from the FV1 are interchangeable but then each module has additional stuff happening before or after).

Also add Happy Nerding’s FX Aid to the list of modules. It seems to have some really nice sounding reverbs.

Please provide a link or contact for that expander :flushed:

wow…UAD’s EMT Plate in a pedal, amongst many other wonderful things.

I don’t have any particular need this at the moment but I’m so happy it exists and I’m sure I will own it in the not-too-distant. I could have REALLY used this when I was doing touring FOH and toting around an Apollo Twin just for that EMT plugin. I can see this replacing the Flint for a lot of people.

I’ve had a MOOD for about a year and it still blows me away. The clock knob being quantized to 5ths and octaves is outrageously musical. It takes some time to really get but once you do it’s basically an instrument in it’s own right.

Anyone has experience with the Alesis Nanoverb 2? Is it any good? Even for lo-fi sounds?

#733

had one for a bit, it’s good fun, don’t expect to get too deep. Lexicon LXPs are also great and cheap

#734

I got it really cheap and it’s great for what i want to do. People get often lost in so many possibilities while just a simple reverb can do the job. And to think that I was planning to give 400€ for a luxurious reverb.

Those Alesis units sound great and were used on many classic records for a reason
