Presets
Description
I've now added a fourth Hairy Eyeball low gain overdrive (designed to distort the next thing in you signal chain) preset for a Treble Booster. This is more accurately described as Treble Booster inspired because I tailored it to suit my ear (ironically, by removing treble). The other three voices are a TS808, a Klone, and a mid-focused H9 factory preset called “Balls”. An expression pedal allows you to adjust the mid hump in each until you find the best setting for you. You could then eliminate the range if you’d like. The “TRIM” knob is a gain knob with a limited range and a hotswitch uses that knob to provide a modest crunch-boost option. The TREBLE and BASS knobs basically operate as expected. The default TRIM setting adds a volume boost so I have nullified that by reducing the output level. These presets are driving my Kingsley Page, Page TS, Harlot, and Page J out of this world! Naturally, you could hit any other drive pedal or the front of an amp. As always, adjust to taste. 9/26/2022

BlueWingedTiger just posted an excellent Morley Power Wah preset. I've simply repackaged it as a half cocked wah for those interested in one. Use an expression pedal to find the right amount of nasal for you and off you go. Use with your favorite overdrive/distortion and, as always, adjust to taste. Again, attribution of all creative effort here goes to BlueWingedTiger. 9/26/2022
Description
This H9 preset was inspired by the famous Andy Timmons reverbesque delay in Robert Keeley's excellent Halo pedal. It is an approximation, not a recreation. That, in part, is because the original has a "gallop" that I don't think can be captured in UltraTap. Hopefully, it is close enough to cure your Halo gas. Thanks to YouTuber ciclosonico (whose channel is loaded with creative H9 snippets) for providing valuable improvements over a posted prior version. 9/7/2022

This H9 preset was inspired by the first preset on Robert Keeley's excellent Halo pedal (the famous Andy Timmons reverbesque delay sound). This merely an approximation of that preset, not a recreation. Hopefully, it is close enough to cure your Halo gas. 8/30/2022
Description
Delayed octaves up and 'Minor 14th' (whole step down from 2 octaves).
Description
Choppy accelerating tremolo with multi-fx sequence.
Description
Expression Pedal Heel: Pitch Mix = A10 + B0
Expression Pedal Toe: Pitch Mix = A0 + B10
Scale-constrained intervals in two phase-offset loops (preset medium-long decay times).
Flex switch Learn modulates scale root notes for overdubs within the loops.
Expression pedal mixes loop input from A through B. The opposite side continues to loop.
Description
Blank patch. Nothing happening.
Description
Preset based on the delay used in the music Heartbreak Warfare of John Mayer
Description
Octaves up with short delays.
Description
Expression Pedal Heel: Delay A = 1/2
Expression Pedal Heel: Delay B = Dotted 1/4
Expression Pedal Heel: Feedback A = 100%
Expression Pedal Heel: Feedback B = 100%
Expression Pedal Toe: Delay A = Dotted 1/4
Expression Pedal Toe: Delay B = 1/2
Expression Pedal Toe: Feedback A = 75%
Expression Pedal Toe: Feedback B = 75%
Harmonized oct+m3rd & 2 octaves up flip their loop delay times in infinite phrase loops.
Root notes modulated with Flex/Learn switch. Very effective with 'exotic' scale looping.
EXP PED swaps delay times & panning (adds short fades), and reduces inf. feedback.
Description
~10ms delayed Octave up, Major 7th up, Minor 9th up. Expression pedal fades different voices in and out.
Description
Pitched up choppy sequence.

Echo I use for the solo on Band of Skulls - I Know What I Am. Pretty wet with only one or two noticeable repeats. I use it with a Les Paul (Bridge) to EHX Soul Food to H9 to Fender Deluxe Reverb. YouTube video is to actual song, not preset. (Solo starts around 2:05.)
Description
HOTSWITCH activates infinite reverb, allowing you to create a big wall of sound and clearing it easily by pressing the HOTSWITCH again.
Description
OK so this is more shoegazy droney stuff for those of us who used to zone out to "Head On"-era Loop and "Sound of Confusion"-era Spacemen back in the day. This sound has one purpose, to crank up the amp and hammer away on an open A string whilst fretting from 5 to 7 on the D string for hours on end. Kick the expression pedal forward to bring in the third drone. Mindless but satisfying.
