In Reply to: Hi Brent, SPX and Eventide.. Questions... posted byCraig Molinelli on October 05, 2001 at 22:00:30:
: Hi Brent, I know you and players like Michael landau and Dann Huff use or used the SPX 90 pitch change C along with the TSC to give a more lush tone. I was wondering what the Eventide units are used for then? Is pitch Change C the same as harmonizer or is it different? I would think that C patch is a form of Harmonizer which gives the more lush feel at least in my rig its works that way. I know you have both the SPX and Eventide in your rack, i was wondering what the Eventide is for? Is there a way to set a patch in the SPX that is like what you and studio players use the Eventide for? If so how would you set it? Also have you heard that the Lexicon LXP 1 reverbs made in Hong Kong are just like the PCM 70 verb, same type sound? The U.S.A made ones are not the same. I was wondering what is your favorite PCM70 verb setting for the big ballad patchs with the stereo delay and TSC etc.. Thanks for your halp! Craig
hi craig---the eventide for me is very useful in a couple of different ways. the pitch-shift variations derived form the 119 micro-pitch algorithm is very analog sounding to me, on the other hand i use it for crazy sounds such as auto-wah, and other out of the norm sounds--an example would be on the fade of "jimmy's got a girlfriend" by the wilkinsons on giant records. i don't have any opinion on the differences of the lxp's, and my favorite pcm patches are chorus delays and circular delays form the version 2 software.---thanks, brent...
