Eventide Multifactor?

[ben_allison]

Anyone know if there's a "Multifactor" on the way? The Timefactor looks pretty great. I'm sure the Modfactor is cool too. I'd love to have a scaled down Timefactor and a scaled down Modfactor in one same box... maybe some vibe/phaser/octave options too.

Basically, a quality time/pitch based fx box that fits on a pedal board, has tap tempo, and MIDI functionality... that doesn't mess with my straight tone in a significant way.

Any ideas?

it'd be expensive!

[ben_allison]

I'm not sure why; it should be the same price. The only thing that's different about it is the software. Put in a few delay algos, a few chorus algos, a few other time/pitch algos... it's not really all that different than what they make now, just some different software... which they already have!

sounds like a M13....

[ben_allison]

yeah, but it'd be way smaller (probably sound a bajillion times better)!

i'm still holding out for a pitchfactor to go with my TF.

Words straight out of my mouth. How many people would be all over a Pitchfactor like a rottweiler at a cat show?

You can bet you'd see a bunch of WH-1's for sale as well...

on a related note, I would make sure nobody tells tom morello.

An Eclipse in a floor multi. Yeah it'll be expensive.

Just what I need to replace my magicstomps. But it had better be darned good to get them off my boards..

You can buy both the TF and MF for less than half of what it'd cost to buy an Eclipse...amazing sounding units and very easy to use. M13 isn't even in the same league.

I wouldn't be so sure, I own both the m13 and the TF.....let me just say again I wouldn't be so sure

Yeah I saw someone demo the M13. Lets just say I wish this puppy came out a couple years ago. Save me some headaches.

Never tried the eventide pedals but there's sure a buzz about them. Also eventide units are probably in every studio.

I own the TF and MF love 'em. I played an M13 at the pedalfest, and if it had been out 6 months ago, I probably would have gone that way. Still might, with all the synth sounds on the M13...

[ben_allison]

Yes. I don't want an Eclipse... what I'm saying is take half of the Timefactor... half of the Modfactor... and put them together in the same box...

Like, a digi, tape, and analog delay algorithm... and a chorus, phaser, and vibe algorithm.

It won't have all the delay functionality of the Timefactor... nor all the modulation functionality of the Modfactor... but bits of both for those who only need bits of both...

They don't even have to design or invent anything new! It's just a matter of installing software!
