Slower Mini Vibe ?

Postby Donner » Sun Sep 25, 2011 4:08 pm

k, so , whats the interest level in a slower minivibe ?

As stated before the minivibe is trimmed to its most useful parameters for most people .....

but I also like slower modulations sometimes too .....

how slow is slow enough ?

and how much high end speed are you willing to give up?

Thats the trade off .......

I have three minivibes made up to the next slower speed ....

anybody up for minivibe speed research .... ?

these are in the last customshop moderate sparkle green boxes ....

but these will just be the regular $265 price because the buyers need to be able to make audio or video clips ...

So if you want one of these and are in the US , have a regular minivibe for comparison and can make a clip

Wish I could get in on this but the best I can offer is cellphone audio clips which wouldn't do this thing any justice. Can't wait to hear some of the other folks' opinions and clips though!

you know what, :idea: come to think of it -- I might could do one with my phone camera --- it sucks for distortion demoes but it might work for just vibes........

Ok I think this shows the slower speed pretty well... so if anyone is interested , clip making is no longer necessary 8)

It needs to be slow enough to do Bridge of Sighs and side 2 of Dark Side Of The Moon. I don't think a little top end roll off is that bad, but then it depends on exactly what amount. Ill be excited to see the clips!

I borrowed your two stomp version and thought it was a too slow. The one all the way to the right sounds really good.

I vote for s l o w e r

I like the speed of the two stomp at its lowest setting ... might be better even slower than that actually...
