Hoxton OWL patches
The Hoxton OWL is a programmable open hardware pedal by Rebel Technologies, UK. Firmware & schematics are on Github.
The unit plays user patches, as below
◌ Broken fuzz (download) for a broken, old radio sound, sputtering and spitting, from soft to aggressive, with notes of ring modulation & bitcrushing. This is based on an altered analog octafuzz circuit, flip flops and all.
◆ Pitch delay (download) is partly based on the logics of a Montreal Assembly Count To Five – 2016 in mode 1 (without reverse mode), a combination of pitch & delay with feedback. Quint-up pitch fx and other harmonic delay things. Modeled after double-tape-head delays. Ambient harmonic awesomeness, beat remixing bliss – and take a look at the real pedal, too!
⌬ Encrypter (download) – level-controlled ring modulator w/ self-adapting threshold for trigger generation (max every 60 ms, but varying dependent on incoming audio). Trigger generates random deviation (additive) from base ring mod frequency. Also triggers when effect shows up in release mode.
DECRYPTION: Nice for bell sounds with solo string instruments, percussion and drums – and as well for encrypting voices.
🐦 Karl (download) – Karl should have been a lark, but is generally a bird generator, not simulating actual scientic evaluations of the bird mouth and throat, but done by ear with a musical idea in mind. jayrope sometimes uses Karl to record fake conversations with birds in the field.
