Electro-Harmonix Freeze Sound Retainer Pedal

Uno de mis favoritos. Lo adquirí no estando del todo convencido. Ideal para crear colchones atmosféricos en donde se generan vacíos incómodos.

A really cool effect with plenty of possibilities, but not for me unfortunately

I’ve had this pedal for sometime and I love it, it’s pretty useful in creating ambient drones and textures. This pedal is pretty straight forward and fun to use,

A cool concept, though im not sure how much longer it'l be on my board. I have yet to find a use for it live, and really just mess around with noodling over pedal notes.

It only does one thing! It does it well though. It uses granular synthesis to freeze the spectral bins of whatever you've just played, and then it plays it back to you forever in latch mode. Initially I thought, 'that's nice...but how can I actually make use of it?'. The answer for me was to get some sort of looper. Then, using the Freeze pedal, it becomes possible to build up huge layers of synth guitar, note-by-note. I think EHX actually want you to do this; they probably envisioned that players would couple this with all sorts of other effects like modulations, delays and reverbs so that we could all do Brian Eno impersonations in our bedrooms. Which, it seems, is exactly what we're doing! Of course, it works just as well with synths etc.

I've had the EHX Freeze for a couple of weeks now and I've loved it. I haven't messed around too much with the fast and slow settings as I've only been using it to sustain chords for the intros in songs and to use in conjunction with delay to make noise.

But what I have been using it for has been great. It's done exactly what I want it to and I'm keen to see how much more I can do with it

A game changer. Excellent for drones. Its great too for improvising on chords.

This is an interesting pedal that i do use often, primarily when i go for huge crazy ambient sounds. I will often use this with reverb, delay, chorus, phaser, distortion, and volume swells.

Pricey pedal, but I found one used for $60 (Canadian). Great for creating a soundscape. I use it live and in the studio to fill the sound, and is great for practicing on your own to have something to play over. Also great for sustaining notes in a solo (if youre into that). Works best for my shoegaze-style playing, or ambient stuff

With dry-only output and less-clicky button mods, it is perfect.
