hi gang,

does anyone know of a guitar pedal or processor that offers bit/sample
rate reduction like the Digi Lo-Fi plug-in?

looking to put it in between a guitar and amp so it would have to do
A/D/A itself...

thanks!

I think Roland actually built such a thing at one point. (And of course
there are a lot of early digital pedals with 8-bit sampling that do this
inadvertently.)

Well Transducer - may I call you Tran - one of the coolest lo-fi effects
I've discovered is also lo-tech. Record your amp with a $50 mono mini
cassette recorder like reporters use for interviews. Once recorded you can
play it into your computer via the mono earphone mini jack. Very cool vibe!
Of course if you want to use it live that's another story. A lot of popular
bands are using band-pass or high-pass pedals to sound lo-fi in portions of
a song. You can find a few from Boss, Digitech, etc.

The Line6 DL4 digital delay has a "low res" setting that allows you to
choose the resolution - down to 4 bit if I remember correctly.

Do any of these have separate record and repro heads?

And how well can the guitarist play ahead of the beat? This would
be cool, it would look like a badly synced video, except it's live...

Oops, live performance is offtopic for RAP...
