The Digitech Whammy, a complete history!

[Dave Lewis]

Connect them all in series!

I’m going to use this to power and switch between them for simplicity

My only gripe with the Fractal Whammy is that it’s too clean, I’d love to see Cliff really nail the warble of the WH-1/II. I just use the Golden Whammy trick, it’s active in pretty much every preset for my live rig.

The pitch shifting is still pretty mediocre in Firmware 10.0, so I think I’m still getting an external. Probably the XS-100.

Ah, I thought you were just talking about the Whammy block itself. I still have to update my FM9, it’s been sitting in the road case since I quit my band and I can’t even remember what FW it’s on. Did the III’s pitch block updates trickle to it yet?

Yeah they just updated to 10. It’s alright. I’ll have to compare it to the Whammy and the XS-100 when we get one.

Jon,
Get some multi coloured pedal toppers for your pedals and put the matching colours on your Harley Benton switcher save having to put labels on it

Not a bad idea!

I have the Boss XS-100 now. It's not bad! Going to compare it to the Whammy DT soon...

Will that be a video on your YouTube channel ?

 

[GuitarJon]

Will that be a video on your YouTube channel ?

Yeah, in a while

 

[Dave Lewis]

Jon,
You should have got one of these to fit under your board .
Much better than that white thing with the rounded back that won’t fit flush to anything .

Thomann do a few options from companies that give you stuff

 

[Dave Lewis]

Yeah, in a while

Excellent glad you have a DT because your new White one won’t stand up.
The newer yellow Neon betters the red black and blue ones I have.
The DT is still king

 

[Dave Lewis]

Yeah, in a while

Jon,
If you haven’t recorded your Boss v DT video yet?
Can you weigh them both please?
My electronic scales have given up after over a decade of use.

 

[Dave Lewis]

A 24 karat solid gold Whammy would be some serious pedal board bling!

Have you seen the price of gold and silver today ?
Its gone through the roof and still rising Never a better time to sell
Selling price has never been this high in history.

Shame Henning didn’t have a longer cable so it could be played with a foot.
