Delay, Modify, & Expression Control! Chase Bliss Habit PART 1 | Secret Weapons Demo & Review

Музыка

Habit, by Chase Bliss, is described as "a delay with memory" and that's both entirely true and undersells just how much that entails. This new wellspring of inspiration is dense, intricate, very capable. So we're splitting this into two parts. Here in part one we are exploring "Habit as a delay" and covering the basics of Habit's delay the modifiers that can be applied to it. We'll also cover some of the internal routing options and expression control.
In Part 2 we explore "Habit as an experimental looper" and dive into the Spread and Scan controls, ramping, and understanding how to tie the whole of the pedal together.

    Thank you so much for these videos! I bought this pedal a couple of months ago and could not crack it, was getting very frustrated with it and was thinking of selling it. Your advice of just looking at it as a delay pedal completely opened it up for me! I have been having so much fun with it and cannot put it down! Finally being able to wrap my head around this and being able to get some amazing sounds out of it makes me so very happy. Thank you very much again :)

    As a bass player I want one so badly!! It seems like a. Pedal you would just have to own and spend hrs with, I watched the demo on the Chase bill channel, he did a great job explaining it, though I was still confused probably because I wasn’t the one who played the riff and didn’t know where it started and ended and how it originally sounded, glad your enjoying it!

    Thank you for that video I like the fact that you take time to explain the simple delay and modifier part, I just got the pedal this week and I needed this format. I now know that I understand all this parameters and more importantly that I have to continue explore those before going into the scan and spread / dip switches of death ;) Because I instantly get lost when I use those Leo

    what do you think of the new benson plugin from mixwave? normally you would put things like preamp first, and then other effects. now you are going from habitat (so fx first) to the benson plugin chain, so thats a bit different. what do you think of that?

    Hello, I've also got a question about how to change the MIDI channel on my CBA pedals. I can't get it to work with Ableton. I know that I have to unplug and plug in again while holding both switches and then send Program Change. But I don't know how that works in Ableton... I have 4 CBA pedals and I would like them on different MIDI channels. But I can't figure it out.. I really hope you could help me out.

    Love your demos! Signal chain question here: Noticed you are using the Canvas now in your last few videos, I use an ACS1. Wondering if you have a preference of Walrus Canvas or Pinstripe Diso +? Other than a few of the more obvious differences, are the signal results of each device fairly similar?

    This is a “no wrong answers” kind of thing. I’ve had the canvas for a shorter period than the DISO. The canvas is smaller and has a more robust feature set if you need things like pad and DI options. But the DISO sounds phenomenal. The Jensen transformer is top notch and the build quality is bulletproof.

    Nope. Thermae remains my all time favorite delay at an “accept no substitutes” level. It’s phenomenal. Habit is great for a myriad of things but replacing Thermae is not one of them.

    You might have mentioned this…apologies if so. Can you use multiple modifiers at a time? e.g. lofi/reverse octave repeats w/ glitches To be clear. Without looping the pedal.
