Welcome to Electro-Harmonix "Effectology" series, in which we create a remarkable collection of impossible sounds using just a regular guitar and EHX effect pedals!
No keyboards, samplers or midi pickups were used.
in this episode I explore guitar effects in the amazing Ravish Sitar pedal!

  • Does this effect run better through the effects loop or straight to the front of the amp??

  • @KilledTheFixtion

    I have not tried it in a loop.

  • Is an expression pedal required for the glissando note transitions?

    The drone strings are synthesized but is the lead voice a synth representation of the note being played, or is it the actual note but highly filtered and effected?

    Do the drone tones always sound in the same proportion, or do the tones that happen to be in the vicinity of the lead note being played get louder as they would in a real instrument?

  • @1Doz Yes you need an expression pedal.

    The lead voice is not a triggered synth, its your guitar.

    The drone notes can be imputed to resonate in what ever range you want.

  • @Effectology

    THanks for the reply. Let me rephrase my last question in something like readable English. Is the volume of the drone notes relative to each other fixed, or can particular notes get louder if they happen to be near the pitch of the lead note? In other words, can you sort of emphasize individual drone notes with your lead notes.

    I can't believe how cool this pedal sounds. Hats off to the designers.

  • @1Doz

    Yes, the sympathetic notes are not at a fixed volume .

    The do get louder if they happen to be near the pitch of the lead note.

    The freeze drone is like the freeze, that is fixed.

    haha dude, effectology is a series done by ehx

  • play it with a fuzz pedal, a vibrato pedal, and a phaser pedal all at the same time!

  • Really good job demonstrating the versatility of this pedal! Much better job than EHX if I say so myself. I didn't even think the Koto sound could be achieved with this thing.

  • Wow! I loved it. Not as a sitar synth, but as something to achieve new sounds not only with electric guitars, but other electric instruments as well.

  • @TheEnricoRosExp What song?

  • @fazialpalmierung

    I had a vision of myself on the guitar, wearing a paisley jacket, performing my new Beatlesque song (I will start with it right now!), with a Bolloywood choreography in the background.

  • Oh my, I have been wanting to add this sound to my band. This pedal is amazing! Thanks for this demo s far has been the most helpful

  • Dude that thing is sick! I bet it would sweet with a little fuzz/distortion mixed in with it. I want one!
