Moog Music MF101 Moogerfooger Low Pass Envelope Filter Pedal Review

Wow, someone actually wrote as a review "My husband uses this in his band a lot...don't know anything about it...", now I have seen it all. Why would any body think that an endorsement like that could possibly be helpful in any way? Oh great, well if it's good enough for your husband then I'll take TWO!! Holy smokes, what else do you see him using that I might want? Thanks for nothing, luckily anyone else who is looking at this will surely know what this is and it goes without saying it's value and quintessentially uniquely classic moog filter sound. Thanks for nothing though, Little Lost Long Island Girl.

This is the classic Moog filter that changed the sound of electronic music. Reach out and sweep the filter with the CUTOFF knob. Or use the ENVELOPE section to do it automatically. Or plug in one or more expression pedals or control voltages to do it. Or do all three. This is the best-sounding, most playable filter you can have! A 110V power supply is included. What is a Lowpass Filter? A lowpass filter removes high frequencies from a tone. It makes the tone sound more mellow or muted. The lower the cutoff, the more muted the tone sounds. Imagine a window shade. As it is pulled down, it cuts out the higher light, then the light from the middle of the window, then finally all the light. A lowpass filter does the same sort of thing to the sound spectrum. The moogerfooger filter is a direct descendant of the original Moog modular synthesizers. It contains two complete modular functions: a voltage-controlled lowpass filter and an envelope follower. The envelope follower tracks the loudness contour (envelope) of a sound, and produces a voltage that follows the dynamics of your playing. Every time you play a note, the envelope voltage goes up and then down. The harder you play, the higher the envelope voltage goes. The envelope follower opens and closes the lowpass filter. Think of the envelope voltage as an invisible hand that turns the CUTOFF knob up and down every time you play a note. Since the envelope follows the dynamics of your instrument's signal, you actually play the filter as you play your instrument. The moogerfooger filter is also a resonant filter. As you turn up the resonance, the overtones near the cutoff frequency are boosted. Resonance gives the moogerfooger filter the same classic Moog filter sound as the Minimoog and Moog modular synthesizers. The moogerfooger filter's control parameters are signal mix, cutoff frequency, resonance amount, and envelope amount. All of the Lowpas

TC-Helicon VoiceTone Synth Vocal Effects Processors Review

Great effects and easy to use. Plugging in my Microkorg and double vocoding my voice is a blast and sounds awesome. The VoiceTone Synth is deceptively deep as well. With far more profiles of sounds than you would first expect by the layout of the buttons. Highly recommend!

Electro Harmonix Micro Synth Pedal Review

If you've heard me live, this is one of my signature sounds. I'm not sure if Jeff Beck used one of the original micro-synths on Blow By Blow, but it sure sounds like it. If anyone knows, please drop me a line. The MS is cool not just for the sounds you get from it, but for the sounds you can get using it early in your signal-processing chain. In other words, go direct from your guitar into the MS, use it to shape your envelope and then run that into your other effects. Quite un-guitar-like sounds can ensue. A ton of fun!

Line 6 M13 Stompbox Modeler Review

Line 6 M13 Stompbox Modeler
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
The M13 is an outstanding piece of gear. I've never really loved Line 6's amp/cab modeling stuff. I had the HD147 and liked it for a couple years. But I could never get the tone I wanted. Then I bought a tube amp. A Crate Palomino V32. But lost all the versatility with effects. So then I bought the POD X3L. It had no depth and took all the character out of the amp. So I went the all pedal route. Boss DD-20, L6 Verbzilla, Seymour Duncan Twin Tube Classic overdrive pedal. Blackstar HT-Dual OD/Dist, etc. I was really happy!!
Then I saw the M13. I was totally floored by how many different effects that were in there and the versatility of routing the "pedals" in order of one another. ITS SO VERSATILE!! The effect quality is right up there with their 4 button stomps (DL4, MM4, DM4, and FM4) after all it was designed to encompass all of those pedals into one package that has a footprint that is just a couple inches bigger than 2 of the 4 button stomps.
The tone of my amp stays the same, and I have all of the delays, reverbs, mods that I could ever use!! You can still use any of your analog pedals (I still have my Blackstar) because there is an onboard effects loop and you can route your existing effects before, after, or anywhere in the middle of the M13. Its incredible!!
I'm so happy I bought this pedal, and it was worth every single penny!! Try one out for yourself and you'll be pleasantly surprised with it!! If you don't like Line 6 gear because you're a tube junkie, forget all of what you thought you knew about Line 6 and try this pedal as soon as you can. I think Line 6 may have taken a new turn with their products and this is definitely an awesome new direction for the company. This pedal rocks!!!

The Electro Harmonix MicroSynth is truly amazing! There are no words to describe how versatile and unique the effect pedal can be. I highly advise checking out the EHX website to watch/listen to the demos available. The only complaint I have is that there is no way to store presets.
