So the technical stuff is cool but how does this sound in practical use? So, for instance, you’re playing along and you’ve got a groovy little part going with some nice clear delay, a little modulation and you simply step on the left switch and you will have a rippling, cascading goddess flowing through your signal. It’s very handy that you can use the pedal as a straight delay with no pitch shifting at all and simply add the shifting via the dedicated left footswitch. In between, you will discover inversions and chords along the way.

Counterclockwise is below standard pitch to minus 1 octave and clockwise past noon is 2nds, 3rds, 4ths, etc., to plus 1 octave. The tone control varies, from darker analog-voiced repeats counter-clockwise to bright, crisp color fully clockwise, emphasizing your attack.īut of course, the real star of this unit is the pitch shifting and the various combinations thereof that should really spur your creativity, and isn’t that what any new music toy is really about? Where does it lead you and what new sounds do you come up with? The shift knob is the key element for shifting the pitch. The left and right delay times (that’s right, two delays) can be set in series, parallel or ping pong and can be set as a ration so a single knob changes both in sync. Resonant feedback sounds are also available through three delay ranges fixed by a switch. Infinite repeats start at 3 o’clock on the feedback control and above that lives beautiful chaotic mayhem. The web app includes control over many other deep dive functions and greatly increases the functionality of the pedal and lets you assign MIDI and other applications if you wish. Stock delay time is 1600ms, which can rise to 3200ms via their web app.
#Red panda raster demo manual
You can deep-dive if you’re into that sort of thing but all of the tactile, manual features at your fingertips are highly useful and easily accessible.Īt its heart, the Raster 2 is a digital delay with pitch and frequency shifting integrated into the feedback loop. Would mean they’re overly complicated, but they’re not. Like I said, what I use it for are delays that swell in when chords die out (pre-dirt) and random chorus sounds, and phasing/flanging.Red Panda packs as many features into their pedals as anyone I know and you’d think that These sounds aren't what I use it for either, but it's a really good showcase of what it's capable of. I suggested to them that preset+wave button combo be a secondary function reset tho. Yeah, you can def do a blank slate preset. Re-the reset button: the first solution that pops in my mind is to save a "simple" preset and use that as a starting point / reset point when thing gets too messy with secondary function? I didn't watch the one you posted but I watched the 2hrs one and, while the sounds are thousands of miles away from what I want to do with it, it helped a lot understanding the way it operates, especially with the various parallel/sequential delays with independent controls and relative LFO assignments.

I have never liked chorus btw so I think that’s saying something too. My slight wish here was for the rate knob to change the slew/speed of the envelopes, right now it’s a set speed. With a dirt after it it’s a cool way of getting all your note attack and clarity in but as the chord sustains you start getting echoes. The envelopes on the amplitude are crazy having only delay/effect when playing, or vice versa only effect coming in once you stop playing. It’s difficult to keep these in your head and knowing why shit is sounding crazy right now. It’s working out quite well but I’ve sent an email seeing if red panda could add a reset button combo for resetting the second valued (left/right stereo stuff). And a dirt in front for using regular delays. I sandwiched it between two dirts so I can get those heavy octave down sounds with a dirt after it, or those distorted delay sounds. I’m using mine for octave down sounds or random chorus (with some phasing) right now, and really digging it. Even though they’re not very comparable, this feels like it fills the spot of a bitquest quite well.
