It is very good, though its lack of down sweep and/or finer control over the envelope sweep (without recourse to external gear) made me return mine. I might pick another up as I’ve now found a way of driving envelope sweep circuits a bit harder. The phaser is lovely and can still be had for reasonable prices (£269 new). If I someone buys my Octo Nøjs I think it’s time I bought this (again).

Isn’t there also a third-party librarian for the Zoom stuff? There’s a thread somewhere in this section about it. Ask @Al Krow.

OK, did some digging around: Mu-Tron III was used on Sir Psycho Sexy (sources are two separate flea interviews). Q-Tron will get close as it’s Mike Beigel’s version of the Mu-Tron III that he did for EHX in 1995. I’ve seen it on Flea’s board on rig rundown videos. Z-Tron is the Zoom clone of that

After listening with headphones, it seems like it’s actually the narrow pulse:

... or buy a Behringer Model D for £285, which is a dead-on Minimoog hardware clone.

@tobiewharton, I’ve just had a go at programming “Ain’t Nobody” on my Minimoog App, this setting sounds pretty close. It’s a medium-width pulse, no resonance, relatively fast downsweep envelope with medium depth. I’d seriously recommend buying this app if you have an Apple device, it’s worth every penny, you can play it on the device or hook up a cheap midi keyboard. At a push you could even play it with your bass using a Sonuus G2M (though there’ll be some latency). @CameronJ, I can share the settings file if you want to have a listen to it to comment.

Shameless plug for this most excellent one-stop octave and gated dynamic fuzz pedal: If I were sensible, I’d keep this and sell my Octabvre and Doom instead and pocket the sizeable cash difference.

I managed to get close to the Ain’t Nobody sound with pedals. It sounds like a narrowish pulse wave. I used an Octabvre into a Mastotron (pulse width quite narrow) into a downsweep 24db filter on the Manta. I favoured the jazz pickup on my PJ as it seemed to give the the sound some thinness. I ran that into an aggressive noise gate on a Sentry. The main stumbling block is getting the filter sweep to reset quickly enough. Playing very tight staccato with the noise gate helped but it think I need to try a bit of compression at the front so I can get the gate tighter.

Marc Doty’s reviews are the most comprehensive and are essential viewing if you’re interested in the models he has reviewed.

Casting director seeks black female bassist

Are those your real breasts? -
These are the demos to watch to get a proper idea of all this can do: It’s a playlist of 10 videos detailing the different aspects of the synth.

This is a fantastic little synth. I bought one for my son. It’s a very capable machine. Doesn’t have full ADSR but is capable of great sounds and has a very powerful sequencer. That demo does no justice to it at all.

Big Favour - Aguilar Octamizer Internal Measurements
Quatschmacher replied to CameronJ's topic in Effects
Are you getting a custom build and sticking an Octamizer in it? -
That’s not actually true, unless you mean top-heavy fractions; there are a fair few keyboard and module synths that are cheaper than the Future Impact eg, Korg Monologue (£230 new, £180 used).

Then the Behringer is a good choice, depending on whether you want a built-in keyboard or not. You’re right though, we are spoilt for choice.
