Empty Head Effects - Falling Man - A Demonstration

Falling Man will allow you to bask in the glorious light of the sun as you fly out high in the fresh cool air of a crisp Spring's morning. But make no mistake, you're falling, and you may find yourself, in an instant, somewhere in the depths of a darkened, darkening, dark place coming down to land with the heaviest of thumps.
Was the Falling Man an astronaut? A skydiver? An unfortunate hiker? A miraculous Unknown Flying Object? An angel from the heavens? Were they simply asleep and waking abruptly? Or more sinister perhaps, did he mean to jump, or was he pushed?
Based around a 2399 delay chip, the pedal starts life as a simple delay effect, with 'Stride' (delay time) and 'Pace' (feedback amount) but from there one can engage the 'Fall' control (input envelope following modulation) to invoke and increase the strength of gravity as it pulls your signal ever closer and more comprehensively to the ground.
'Stumble' keeps the Man above ground. 'Trip' however breaks the Man through the floor and into the dark unknown depths of a catacomb below. With Fall engaged you hear the ghostly broken echos and reflections of feverish yell as he falls into the hollow.
Thank you for watching.

You can tell by the knobs Style video that this pedal is probably hundreds of dollars

[@emptyheadeffects]

Heya! I'm glad you enjoyed the video. They're €225 if you're interested and can be bought direct from the manufacturer in Germany. 💚

[@kidkique]

No thanks but good luck! I don't value Boutique pedals that much more than cheap pedals, but good luck working with the folks that do

[@emptyheadeffects]

@@kidkique No worries. I completely understand and thank you for well wishes! To you too!
There are so many great pedals out there that can do so many amazing things even at far less than what I charge. Not everyone has the money to buy my pedals either which I respect, but I could also be charging double the amount like some smaller boutique companies do. Just trying to make a living doing something I love and attempting to imbue my pedals with creativity and hopefully inspire new ways of playing and creative pathways for people. I don't know anyone making the same pedals as me. I hope people can understand that perhaps some of those $100 pedals don't have quite as much of an appeal to the outsiders or individuals trying to find different tones to that of the many millions of other people that also bought them and that larger companies capable of producing cheaper units are appealing solely to the masses and not those looking to do things differently. I think we should celebrate those differences on both sides. 😁🧡

​@@emptyheadeffectsyou could have pretended it was all part of the aesthetics of the pedal

[@emptyheadeffects]

@@saurabh-levin 😅 all of this is a part of the aesthetic of the pedal. It's all an illusion.....
