Reverb on FX1 slot hack

Yeah i can see some elektron devs pulling out their hair right now :smiley:

Id suspect it’ll be an easy ‘fix’ , since like delay they will just prevent the paste from happening.
I’d expect they might be keen to fix, if it’s at all unclear where the fx1 reverb is writing to … otherwise might be viewed as harmless.

Well theyll have to offer something very special indeed for me to update my OS now…

@Kacper Very impressive you discovered this only after having the OT for two weeks. My guess is you have a highly inquisitive and inventive mind that often refuses to take “no” as an answer!

Oh no the purge has begun, first all traces will be removed from the forum, then an OS update to the OT will cause a sound to come from the ouputs which wipes our memories of this one weird trick :rofl:

now we can put an eq after the verb and adjust the color of it more… nice!

I’d love to hear from elektron on this.

I copied the Dark Reverb with a healthy tail into fx slot 1 from fx slot 2, and it totally worked as advertised, when i experimented with FX2’s original Reverb i created a feedback loop that i couldn’t eliminate, it was great/horrible. I then swapped FX2’s dark reverb with plate reverb and generated a higher octave pitched echo effect that reminded me of Ableton’s more extreme grain delay settings… I had to reload the project because the feedback eventually just became a buzz. User beware…

Wow if you adjust the time of the reverb effect that is feedback-ing and the gate value you can get stuttery effects like an lfo meeting lofi

‘Loophole Reverb’ has a nice ring to it

Sounds like a good way to corrupt a project. Seeing as the ot is so stable as is… :joy:

I had this too. Not sure if I solved it by selecting None again on both fx.

Edit : Setting FX to None seems to stop the stuck sound / feedback.

Good idea, I actually never tried None, i mainly kept changing FX to see if i got anything interesting, I did manage to p-lock some of the chaotic modulation. Cranking up analog delay pedals creates a similar never ending feedback loop, so i am hoping with a little finesse this trick could be usable also.

IIRC the stuck feedback I had was with track 2 or track 6. I don’t think I’d use this, I prefer “controlled” feedback.

No samples, filter self oscillation, feedback (CUE recording sent to CUE).

Very nice, I am personally a big fan of a lot of distortion and full Q on the multi mode filter with a series of lfos free and trigged controlling parameters for varying harmonic overtones , I have never really investigated audio rate-ing the lfos or self oscillating the comb FB… this machine’s depth never ends/disappoints .

I used the FX1 reverb hack for @darenager challenge (see link below).

1 track only, 1 sample chain, 1 bar pattern, FX1 Reverb, FX2 Delay, track recorder recording CUE. No additional fx (no Neighbor, no Master track).

I’ve got one of the old Behringer DSP1000 Virtualizers with the circuitbenders.co.uk variable clock mod installed. This reminds me of some of the sounds it makes, except without the elevated noise floor and loss of highs that you get when you underclock it too far. Good stuff, can’t wait until I have time to mess with this.
