Volume Boost That Swells In/Out...?

[Dan_C]

Hi - Bit of a unique request, and I'm not entirely sure it's possible, but might as well ask! 

I want to have a foot switch on my HX Stomp control a boost, but rather than jumping up/down in gain when turned on/off I'd like it to ramp up. Is this possible, if so how? 

Thanks!

Unfortunately not.

Hi,

 

Nope - not automatically from a foot switch, but you could do it yourself, using your foot and an expression pedal to control a Gain block.

Hope this helps/makes sense.

You need a Zoia... :P

 

..jokes aside, would be great if they would add basic LFO and ENVELOPE/RAMP modules as modifiers. You could link any parameter from any block, and add automation like the one you asked.

You can create an attack/delay type of effect, but I suspect the ramp up time wouldn't be as long as you'd like

You can do a number of things:

1. you can swell up your distortion with an expression pedal.  The distortion amount/volume can be controlled by it.

2. you can have an intermediate "swelling" snapshot, which I show in the video (below)
