    I really dig Leon’s demos, because he’s not just demoing something with just a single coil Strat on a *clean channel*.
    We NEED to hear how stuff rolls, overdriven & distorted.
    Just ask the showgazeers!

    How did you connect it? Signal flow? I think this quality reverbs are best after the cab. If you put them on the loop, the cabinet filters some of their magic and details. Are you using axefx for this review?

    Awesome and great demo vids as usual...They say H9 is apt to a little bit tone suck, making it thin when engaged in Fractal stuffs like FM3. How about GFI this one?....In addition, if you choose one between this device and H9, which way you go?...Thanks!

    • @LeonTodd

      With either unit the best way to run them is in a parallel loop in "kill dry" mode to avoid tone suck

    Just curious if you have attempted to integrate with your Fractal gear. I have an FM3 and found myself with the Specular Tempus, thinking I should keep it and see about MIDI and FX loop integration? Could also offload quite a bit of CPU and I feel the Specular Tempus has a certain quality of the algo's that differ from FAS in a nice, complimentary way?

    • @LeonTodd
      @LeonTodd  Před 3 lety +2

      It's a pretty great combo. I'd use in/out 2 and add this right at the end of the chain in parallel with the GFI in "kill dry". That will avoid any extra latency and allow for verb trails. Midi it all up and go

  • @jatney
    @jatney Před 2 lety

    Leon dude! This is an awesome demo. I've been struggling to decide on whether i should fork the money out for this Specular Tempus or the Source Audio Collider. After this demo I'm leaning towards the Specular Tempus. Although I have one question that might alter that which I don't believe was covered in this demo. With this pedal, is there a way to have a preset that has both a reverb and a delay, but turn one off and use the other, or have both on at the same time? If the makes sense.
    I noticed when you pressed the B at around 5:38 mark, the mode switches completely and not adding the effect on top of the 'A' set.
    So If i had a room pedal with an analog delay. I'd like to be able to press the A button for the reverb only, and then press the delay B to add on top?

    • @LeonTodd
      @LeonTodd  Před 2 lety +1

      There's dual reverb + delay modes but I don't think there's a way to turn off just delay or reverb in those.

      I have a Collider. it is a fantastic pedal.. yes, you can do that with it. I run mine in the loop of my Dirty Shirley and it is under MIDI control but you can just use it like you mentioned. Reverb and Delay on/off switches. either or or both. It's very easy to operate, no menus, etc.. great for live use, you don't get deep editing capabilities though. I have owned most of the super delays on the market and the collider does a great job for basic sounding delays but is not a delay junkie pedal so to speak for guys that want super detail and control over every parameter. It does NOT color your dry tone whatsoever.

      i jumped on this last year, and it's been just lovely. my only want would be for a longer delay time, but i'm perfectly happy picking up an additional delay downstream somewhere. this pedal is worth more than its asking price, in my opinion. i love everything about it.

    This pedal needs a dual mono mode: delay to output a, reverb to output b. Delay for the main signal, shimmer reverb through a separate amp.
    That way, you could use a splitter in front of the Specular Tempus, to add an overdrive to the delay and a volume pedal to the shimmer (both have to be in front of the delay or reverb...

      I think you need to listen to more music, mate. "Worship" is not a real genre - It's just ambient music with religious lyrics. There are a ton (tonne) of bands using ambient lush sounds since the 1990's. Check out these bands: Slowdive, Cocteau Twins, The Daysleepers, Ride, Explosions in the sky... This sound is not related to Christian music or religion. The bands I just mentioned are from the "Shoegaze" genre. Go and explore it!
