NPD: Holy Mother of Minty Old Pedal!!!

[Aceman]

So my BBE Tremor Optical Tremolo showed up today. It was so mint you could smell the rubber on the bottom!

Two rates, one depth, a light that flashes to the beat. In the same sort of style as the Two Timer. I now have a Green Screamer, A Two-TImer, and a Tremor in this series. Love them all.

There are a bunch of tap tempo, and of course full/half (or regular/double) speed pedals. But I dig the ability to set two unequal times for selection.

When I was a kid, I probably never would have known just how to use that. Now, well, I could possibly learn.

It would actually be cool if you were able to have 2 speeds at once, creating some interesting rhythms with the individual tremolos.

 

[Aceman]

I forget exactly which pedal does that. The Whiteclaw dual tremolo maybe???

If it could be synched with a phase fast/slow slaved to one switch, you could mimic a Leslie pretty well.

 

[Aceman]

oooh - A slow trem with a phasor set to half the speed! Or matching.

I can totally imagine going from a slow throb to a fast chop in the same song

Like I said - there are many pedals that will doublele/half speed, but being able to set the times where you want them is where it's at!

I saw the half-speed option on the Fulltone Supa-Trem and wondered how useful it would be. Sounds like the BBE would be the answer.

Half speed is actually pretty good. I mean, think about a song going from normal tempo to half-time, or ramping up to double time. There you go. Tap tempo helps even more there. You want a tap w/ half/double time switch.

But you can't set two different tempos, Like "Bang Bang" to "Born on a Bayou" or to some other odd BPM, or something "effects" like going to Max-Stutter without being already freaking fast.

Sorry - I meant Whitecap.

Whiteclaw is the beverage of choice of of women at a Bonamassa show.

Bob can you use an EXP pedal with it?

 

[Aceman]

Nope. Straight in, straight out. The Empress probably can....
