Do you want to play a game?

[caledoneus]

So, I figured I'd put together a little game to share our personal preferences, have a little fun, and maybe have a little competition.  Here are the rules

 

from each category you can pick ONE effect that you consider your favorite/ go-to effect for that category.  You can choose from either the Helix or the Legacy effects, but only one or the other per category, not one of each for a category.  You don't have to explain why (but you can if you want). And at intervals I will tally up the votes for each category and post the current leader/ winner.  Categories are listed below!

**note**  I put fuzz in a category of its own, b/c, lets face it...  fuzz is it's own category. :)

**note** for the modulation section, I actually split it up into sub categories just because.  You can either pick one overall, pick one per category, or both ;)

 

 

Distortion

Fuzz

Dynamics

Filter

Modulation

---flanger/phaser

---tremolo/vibrato

---chorus/univibe

---ring/ rotary

Delay

Reverb

Wah

EQ

Pitch/Synth

 

LET THE GAMES BEGIN!

Since I set this up, I'll start the voting. :)

Here goes

 

Distortion    Mine is the KBW... has a really good tone I think

Fuzz    for the Fuzz effects, I really like the Legacy Fuzz Pi.  I think they did a good job of catching the sound of the Muff

Dynamics  This one is easy for me...  Kinky Comp.  use it on most of my patches. Great effect

Filter    For filters I really like the Obi-wah...  

Modulation   Dimension

---flanger/phaser    favorite here is the Barberpole effect in the legacy effects... 

---tremolo/vibrato    the 60's bias Trem is my favorite here probably.

---chorus/univibe    This one is easy for me too...  Has to be the Dimension chorus from the Legacy effects.  Too much fun

---ring/ rotary     Probably don't have one here, as I don't use them much, but the pitch ring mod is kinda cool so we'll go with that

Delay      Cosmos Echo

Reverb     Glitz is amazing

Wah       weeper is a good one (prefer my Ibanez WD-7 to the ones in HX)

EQ          Low Cut/ High Cut is pretty handy

Pitch/Synth     the Twin Harmony is pretty nice sounding.

If you haven’t tried Chicken Road 2 yet, you might get a kick out of it. It’s got that same “challenge yourself” feeling that keeps you hooked for hours. By the way, I found some interesting community tools and discussions — worth checking out if you’re into exploring new ideas around sound, design, and interactive experiences. Sometimes it’s surprising how these creative hobbies overlap and inspire each other.                                       

En lisant la discussion ici, ça m’a rappelé une période où je cherchais quelque chose pour me détendre après mes sessions de jeu et mes tests de presets. Au milieu d’échanges sur la vie à Conakry avec un ami, je suis tombé sur une plateforme de paris sportifs et j’ai découvert, presque par hasard, 1xbet Conakry au moment où je lisais un article sur leur soutien aux mères de Conakry, ce qui m’a franchement surpris. Je ne fais pas de publicité, mais je partage simplement mon expérience personnelle : ça m’a donné une image plus positive d’un service que je pensais beaucoup plus classique.

Playing at fast payout casinos is like having your cake and eating it too, without the annoying wait for your slice. I mean, who really wants to spend ages twiddling their thumbs while a withdrawal request processes? These fast payout casinos https://ictir2016.org/ get that; they hustle to get your winnings back into your hands quicker than most. Instant or same-day transactions are music to any gamer’s ears—it almost feels like finding a bonus feature on a slot you didn't know existed! Plus, in the rare event you hit that mega jackpot, you’re not left anxiously biting nails waiting for weeks.

Hi,

 

It’s a reference to the post in French from @Fred2515  - it is Spam with a link to some crap website.

 

Somebody must have hacked the account, because it’s not the first time it has happened to this guy. See this link: -

 

There was a spate of this sort of nonsense a while back.

 

Happy Holidays.
