The library of apps is incredible and softcut is capable of amazing things. Norns can be whatever you want, I guess kinda like Zoia, but I've never delved into the coding side of things and don't know if I will.
#Microcosm vs mood Patch
Fantastic pedal and I loved a lot of the patches but found it annoying having only one knob and trying to figure out how each patch worked. I had the Zoia and I share some of the same feelings. To do it, that can either be useful or not.

Depending on what you're doing and how you want

This allows you toĬapture a single bit of audio in the buffer and then change the pitch/speed of Playing the audio from just Dir1, Dir1&2, or Dir1,2&3. I would say though that the Expression input allows it to be more useful inĮven without an exp pedal, in Mode 3 if you flick the Exp Toggle it goes from Mesh well with how you play guitar, and what you want your pedals to do. If you play the CT5 regularly you will either master it or realize that it doesn't If you jibe with theĬB dipswitch/Midi options, you'll probably find the Mood to be endlessly I don't have a Mood,īut spilling one side into the other seems like one of the things that Chaseīliss has worked on to make dynamic and interesting.

In sounds that are hard to replicate (sound from Mode1 spills into Mode2, etc.)īut this is one of the things this pedal excels at. The Mode Toggle switch whatever is in the buffer is preserved. Afterįiring up the pedal you can easily switch to this mode so that when flicking I have a Nightly Firmware and a for what I do I prefer the latest "normal"įirmware, but find the Transcendence mode essential and inspiring. The "complexity" of the CT5 is due to the fact that Scott Monk has made In Mode2 some only flick the quantize toggle up once (for octaves/fifths)Īnd then leave it there. The sounds they are after and then find it quite easy to access them. Knob functions or the position of the quantize toggle. Months without using the CT5 I have to reacquaint myself with the pedal.Īfter familiarizing yourself with it the only "confusion" is secondary It like an instrument.that means regular practice. Some find the CT5 confusing or find it hard to replicate sounds they'veĭiscovered. They won't give you a sense of whether the logic and interface of the The unfortunate thing about watching videos of these pedals is that Have their own fingerprint and their own mode of operation and therefore Which calls to mind something that's true of all these pedals. The Mood obviously has some things in common with the Stamme. The Stamme is likely harder to come across than a Mood, but the Drolo side of You need to quickly bathe in floaty pools to regain your composure. Glitch pedals can yield a psychic stab, sometimes Is useful when you go from wanting controlled chaos to reflective moments The V4 allow you to hit a switch and turn your glitch into a reverb. I have a V1 and V3, but not the current Version 4. And of course it allows for easy recalling of any presets, or sets of presets, and sending CC commands to control one parameter in particular.Ĭlick to expand.The Drolo Stamme is something that might fit into this discussion. I've had Disaster Area controller for years and then I went Morningstar MC8 and it really changed my life ! It makes everything so easy and it opens up so many possibilities that it has become the brain in my pedalboard.
#Microcosm vs mood full
However, one thing to really consider in order to take full advantage of these pedals (and others) is MIDI. And it looks pretty complicated too ! But to each its own. I don't know about the Microcosm, having both the Mood and the Blooper I think it would be redundant. It is really an incredible pedal ! I love the envelope micro looper that reacts to your playing, stuttering and freezing the current loop with bits of your playing, then sending everything back to the effects sides, ramping. The Mood is really out there, with its two sides and dip switches. It has the added advantage of having 4 presets onboard that you can recall at will. The Particle can do a lot, reverse delay, freeze, chop, ring mod, pitch delay, chorus, etc. I use the Tensor mainly for glitchy stuff, like a random pitch reverse delay. Although there is some overlap between them, they are quite different beast. Hello, I own and use the Mood, Particle V2 and Tensor.
