It appears we’ve made the Mercedes of Hex Fuzz Boxes. Really impressive way to make a compliment here on Carvin Forum:

We are flattered! Thank you!

PS Hopefully it’s OK that I copy the original text:

“There’s a reason Roland’s GR-D hex distortion is being blown out for $99. The GR-S is a steal at that price to me, but many think of the D as the far weaker twin of the two.

But, you say you want SERIOUS HEX DISTORTION done the RIGHT WAY? Are you addicted to the BEST? Do you get to screen your credit card bills before your wife sees them???

Mr Mart Pauklin jamming with hexaphonic analog distortion effect pedal 6Appeal (by us, Spicetone), using an ESP Viper equipped with a handwound hexaphonic pickup by Luthier Halvo Liivamägi.

It’s a direct recording through a MOTU soundcard. Panning and cabinet models are applied in DAW (Ableton Live).

I’m not too good with Spanish language, but it seems these guys like us. Muchas gracias!

– Bueno mas que overdrive, es un fuzz, polifónico, con octavas muy parecido a lo que obtienes con el microsynth de ehx, dije similar, en realidad el demo me recordó al efecto en el sinte de Jump, la marca es de Estonia, esta muy bien logrado, es para música experimental, a algunos les podría interesar.

– Se ve chingòn, aunque algo aparatoso pero obligadamente estético, nada mal.

– El diseño está mamalon, me gusta aunque no sepa usarlo…

 

– esta shido para experimentar y explorar sonidos mientras se aprende a usarlo aunque eso puede llevar buen rato.

“Hit It” by Fairlights (Enda Bates)

Spicetone’s 6Appeal hexaphonic distortion, routed to DAW and synced to a drum track with MIDI from computer. Continue reading “Hit It – Fairlights (6Appeal hexaphonic distortion MIDI synced demo)”

Just a short test ride, how to use 6Appeal as active breakout box for a 13pin guitar. This means you route each string separately out from your guitar, into your soundcard (or mixer) and are free to apply panning and do crazy postprocessing. Continue reading “6Appeal in Breakout Box mode – 13pin Guitar to DAW”

A real world proof that 6Appeal hexaphonic overdrive can really fill the background for a solo singer to stand out. I mean, acoustic guitar would be great, too, but it never really fills the stage. It’s one take, except a brief solo.

The Song: “If Your Soul is Tender”, music by Kristel Mägedi, lyrics by Latvian poet Eduards Veidenbaums (1867-1892), translation by Margus “Contra” Konnula. Continue reading “6Appeal Makes a Great Companion for A Singer/Songwriter”

A contribution from Enda Bates:

“I’ve created a Max MSP patch that demonstrates how to use MIDI to control the 6Appeal. The patch, as well as some screenshots are attached below. I’ve tested this in Max MSP 6.1.8, however I havnt checked it in the free Runtime version of Max yet. I imagine it should work there in exactly the same way (although you wont be able to edit or modify the patch). I’ve included controls for the presets, all of the main Pot controls, and a small selection of the most common menu items. If you want to access other menu items, you can just copy and paste an existing control and tweak the MIDI note number to the new value.” Continue reading “Max MSP / Ableton Live patch for 6Appeal”
