Polyphonic swell...

[aksman]

I relied on my POG 2 for polyphonic swells. Got the Attack Decay now, since that's all I used the POG2 for, and it's just... lacking.

 

Is there polyphonic anything in my HX Stomp XL, and is there any way to make a polyphonic swell?? I don't know why EHX is the only company that offers it, unless they have proprietary tech...

 

Any suggestions, workarounds, or advice?

Since many of us know what polyphonic is and what a swell is, it's not very clear what YOU mean by a polyphonic swell.  Maybe starting there will get you more answers.

So, on the POG 2, the attack delay, or swell, works just like a Slow Gear or any other volume swell pedal, BUT it can swell multiple notes/strings at the same time or while one note swells, you can play another note that will swell too... whereas a standard slow gear or other pedal will just let the second note through at regular attack/volume, since it only swells the first note played... in a monophonic capacity.

 

Is that making sense? or am i not explaining this well?  I think i'm having a hard time laying it out there. haha

Oh, on the EXH Attack Decay Pico, there's a button that specifically turns this feature on. That explains it.

Totally! It's pretty cool that EH figured out how to separate the individual strings for separate processing. As far as I know, Helix isn't set up that way.
