Blended from circuit-archetype lineage, dynamic feel, tone-signal overlap and tone-vector distance — the tone vector itself is derived from editorial description text, not a measured acoustic signal, so this reflects how similarly the catalog copy describes the two, not a lab measurement. Shown only within a gear class, and only where there's enough evidence to be meaningful.36% — somewhat different

The Chase Bliss Onward is a dynamic sampler pedal that responds to playing dynamics in real time, capturing what is played to build rich, evolving musical accompaniment rather than acting as a fixed effect. It is organized into three sections, Effects for texture and harmony processing, Shape for synth-inspired envelope control, and Error for glitch manipulation across three distinct flavors, with dual freeze and glitch channels that can run together or independently for layered results. It offers stereo I O with an analog dry-through path, two onboard presets plus up to one hundred twenty two via MIDI, tap tempo with trails, and MIDI, CV, and expression control. Sonically it moves between responsive accompaniment, synthetic reimaginings of the input signal, and glitching, dreamlike textures. It suits ambient, electronic, and experimental players who want a pedal that reacts to and reshapes their playing into new harmonic and textural material rather than repeating it unchanged.
The Electro-Harmonix Iron Lung Vocoder is a vocoder effect pedal from Electro-Harmonix, processing guitar signal through a microphone input to produce vocoder speech synthesis and robotic voice effects. The vocoder circuit analyzes the microphone input and applies its spectral shape to the guitar carrier signal, producing the classic robot voice and vocoder character. Controls include Sensitivity, Dry/Wet blend, and Mic input level.
