Kit Review # 31 - Erica Synths BBD Delay/Flanger - Demo Video

[@pbartmess]

Those rubbery sounds toward the end were especially pleasing!

[@adamvolkinshtein1184]

Yes this is a soud really enjoy too The A-121 resonance sounds also elastique and plasticy

[@t.n.3819]

I really love this module, fills a much needed void. The ONLY thing it's missing is a clock input for the LFO... that would have been a godsend. Oh well, it still rules as it is.

[@MrSMFC1877]

Sounds fantastic with the guitar

Watching this video while waiting for the last 100k pot to arrive to finish the build.

[@killahkay2112]

this thing sounds Awesome .

[@QuincasMoreira]

I know, right? :)

[@TRUEiMPROrecords]

Dope demo as usual, thanks! Been waiting for the perfect delay for my modular and this might be it! For me delay is more like a hands-on live instrument than just an effect and this ticks so many boxes and sounds great! Especially the built in feedbackloop is a great tool. Can´t wait to run some beats and a sequenced CV into it for rythmic delays and karplus tones. Always loved the chunkiness of EricaSynth modules, so satisfying to play with. Hope they keep the price reasonable... Can´t see it in their shop yet?

[@QuincasMoreira]

Thanks! Yeah, it's a really nice delay, just know that at slower times it gets hella noisy! It'll be available later tonight Oct 27!

[@TRUEiMPROrecords]

By noise do you mean that high pitch whine, was it some type of clock bleed or something ( at around 16:00 )? Does it occur at reduced feedback amounts also?

[@stephenmandelbaum2027]

Love your vids, I wanna be a synth DIY guy!

[@QuincasMoreira]

The Pianet! I ended up selling mine, but I’ll own one again someday

[@theboytheycalljonny1]

Fantastic. Thanks!

[@QuincasMoreira]

thank you for watching!

[@Mac.rodose]

thanks Q ;-)

[@etph1997]

Hey thanks for this! Veeeeeery nice! I had a little question. I'm a complete noob in modular but I've been meaning to build a rack but only as an effect box (filtering, delays, spring rev, etc...) mainly for my other hardware synths (analog and digital (p.s. they don't have any cv/gate except my minitaur)) but I might also use it for vocals and electric guitar ('cause it does look like a lot of fun :D ) But would I need some kind of pre amp for that, did you use one? Which one may I ask? Or can I just plug all of that in whatever kind of filter or effects and plug the outs directly in my interface? Thanks in advance and thanks for the demo!!

[@theboytheycalljonny1]

Can i check if you're using any other delay / reverb when playing the electric piano? I've built this module and my delay times are nowhere near as long as that. Did you have to calibrate the module? Thanks!

[@theboytheycalljonny1]

Update: The module just needed calibrated. For anyone with similar issues, R7 adjusts the max delay length.

[@QuincasMoreira]

@@theboytheycalljonny1 exactly, I was gonna come say that but I see you've already figured it out :)

[@theboytheycalljonny1]

@@QuincasMoreira - Yeah - my bad! For some reason i bypassed the calibration and began using the module. I think i got a little too excited. All is well now, thankfully! Thanks again for the videos.

[@jinjaninjaboy]

Anyone know where to go if your build doesn’t work? I have got the wet output working, however even when adjusting the trim pots, I can’t seem to get the classic flanger sound at all. Cheers

[@QuincasMoreira]

this doesn't really sound like a classic flanger, it's a very unique module. But if you can't replicate the sounds in this video maybe there's something wrong. Try Erica Synths Customer support!

Is that Don Quixote sneaking up on you?

[@QuincasMoreira]

it is indeed!

[@louiseisobelevans]

where can I get a user manual for this module?

[@QuincasMoreira]

[@QuincasMoreira]

that's assembly. There's no user manual, but this video is pretty complete!
