Deflector Reverb

[daeg]

Are you doing the External Clock / Drag control like the Afterneath?

 

[Robert]

Yep, it has an external clock rate control.

Any ETA on this....? Not asking for a friend...

The first batch should be ready to go around the first of the week, just waiting for EEPROMs to arrive.

Keen!

I need this.. I want to get this and the Magnetron so hope to luck out and find them in stock at the same time!

Is this based off of the Afterneath or is it its own reverb?

FYI for folks that did not already see this -- the Deflector Reverb board is now in stock and so are the FV-1 chips.

It shares some similarities but isn't intended to be a direct "clone" .

 

[zgrav]

is there some part of the afterneath hardware that is not captured here? or is it just some differences in the programs?

 

[Robert]

The hardware has similar functionality, the main difference is the algorithm.

 

[CodyTheWizard]

Sweet. I'll be picking one up when they are available.

 

[zgrav]

Does the Deflector Reverb only use one program on the FV-1? If there is more than one program, how are they changed?

 

[phi1]

Just one program. You can see on the product page that pins 16-18, which control program selection, are all grounded. So, it runs off program0 on the eeprom.

 

[zgrav]

Interesting.

 

[zgrav]

I am curious if the new "mode" control for the 2.0 Afteneath changes between programs on the FV-1. I think the mode control shifts the frequency of the FV-1 output so the repeats are in some type of chromatic form (thirds, fourths, fifths, octave...). Sort of adding in the Organizer functions into the delay programming.

 

[Robert]

I believe it is quantizing the FV-1 clock signal.

 

[zgrav]

I believe it is quantizing the FV-1 clock signal.

That certainly could be the case. It just seems like tapping into the other algorithms would be low hanging fruit.

 

[Robert]

According to EQD: "The Modes control changes the way the Drag control functions."

The drag control is the variable clock frequency control.

This, plus there are 9 modes and the FV-1 only supports 8.

 

[zgrav]

I thought there were only 7 or 8 modes available. 9 would be out of reach.
