Boss Slicer alternatives?

Not that are cheaper or smaller.

Moog Murf and Adrenalinn are the main rivals, however they are the same size (or bigger) and cost a lot more!

The only other one is the CoPilot Gyroscope, its cheaper and very small, but I'm told it totally kills low end tone and recalling settings is a nightmare and the knobs are very sensitive AND it has no tap tempo :) The Slicer is the best for size and price on an all round basis... And I'm selling mine - convenient!

Ah... It seems there are 2 versions! I'd never seen the 2 footswitch version before. That version also has an extra knob on it. The version I've seen lots of demos of does not have the tap.

Still not as useful as something that has clearly defined presets though...

I feel you might be right

Hmmm.... could I cut one in half? :)

But there's no ROOOOMMMMM

Hmmmm, are you using a Murf instead of your Slicer now then?

Just sit I next to your board. It's non slip rubber on the bottom and robust enough!

I'm not using a murf, but am using the LFO section of my MO-201 to drive my various pedals with slow sample + hold waves to create similar effects! I am planning to add a Midi Murf one day though.

I'm a big fan of the Slicer though. I'm just determined to reduce my setup.

Forgot about that bit :)
I have a reverse polarity cable on the daisychain for the Murf as the other 2 pedals in the chain are - tip.
All run from a Godlyke Powerall.
