Eventide Timefactor Demo

[mild]

Took a look around today for any demos/review videos of the Eventide Timefactor - and still couldn't find anything new on youtube! I'd love to see one put through its paces on video... just to "see" it in action.

What I DID find though, was a new Flash demo that Eventide have done for the timefactor, showcasing the first 5 banks of presets. Pretty cool to check out, if you're still sitting on the fence between the TF and the Nova, or if you just want to hear some more clips of it...

Check it out:

I love this unit. I have 2 (one's on its way)

Those aren't the exact places on the pedal for those selections...but those selections do appear on the pedal.

I remember the demo's lv did, and they were nice, but the hiss seem's a little much.

Anybody have better experiences with this unit, and how does it compare to some of the others out there?

I have zero hiss....and I had one of the first units. I sold my nova because of this. It is absolutely the best delay I have ever heard. It has the most tweaks and sounds of any delay I've played...and I run 9 on my board (10 when I had the nova)

I have a fairly early unit and had no problems with hiss either. In October they upgraded any of the previous purchased units and all the new units have the upgraded shielding. The noise issue is not an issue anymore.

I love my TF and have created some pretty nice patches. There is so many things to do with it that aren't even covered in the demos.

I have one of the first units too, no hiss for me.

Cool guys, thanks for the clarification.... I think I'll talk to Mrs. Clause and see if Santa can circle back to Chi town on his way back to North Pole!

If you can find one...go for it. I love having them both...but this time factor is prestine no joke.

I just got my Nova and its pretty cool.
But,
Its not blowing away my DD-20 like I have been hearing...
Then again,
I'm a huge fan of the DD-20 and I'm really use to it.
Maybe,
I just need to mess with it more...

I like the clips on the TF on that link,
So,
I wonder if will beat out the Nova?

I'm the same way about the dd-20.

Honestly...if you think your going to pick the nova over the TF....really think hard about it...

Well,
I already have the Nova and the DD-20 and right now the DD-20 seems to do more for me in the event I had to choose one.
Although,
I'm still in the early stage of messin' with it.
But,
It still looks like in a "live" situation I'll be able to do and control more on the fly.

I do like some of the features of the Nova, like the layered delay effects.

The TF just looks like it has been really slow to get out on the market to really see anything used. Good thing I'm in no hurry...
But,
I'm want to believe that the TF will be better, especially going off price.
