The Source Audio Artifakt Lo-Fi Elements is your one stop shop for audio manipulation whether you’re looking to warp, filter, degrade or delay.
7 engines shares an intuitive control set composed of a Bandwidth section, Modulation, master Filter and Destruct and Vary knobs that change function with each modes. The modes include Radio static and filtering, Tape effects and modulation, µVerb with multiple diffused delay lines, Bit Crush for classic video game sounds and sample rate modulation, a Ladder filter much like the Moog MF-101, and a comprehensive Vinyl mode that crackles, pops and warps plus a Glitch engine that spits back your audio at various pitches and intervals but with an envelope to let your dynamics control the chaos!
This latest One Series offering takes a huge leap forward with much more control on the outside. Although you can still connect to Source Audio's powerful Neuro App for all your needs, Artifakt invites you to just plug in and explore thanks to 12 presets all loaded up from the factory.
Artifakt Lo-Fi elements still has with stereo ins/outs, mini MIDI jacks and Source audio’s famous control port for expression and much more. For full details check out SourceAudio.net

There's something funny about a high-tech device recreating the imperfections of low-tech devices that were supposed to be eliminated by high-tech. Love these sounds.

@josephfarina9743 Ай бұрын

Funny but kinda sad at this point too. There's always been trends that come along just to "disrupt" things; often started by frustrated "creators" trying to come up with something original. This why blues, disco and doo-wop will always have revivals; sometimes with new names. This is like cubism and abstract expressionism in painting. I'm totally expecting a black and white TV trend to pop up any minute now. I'm a big fan of SA but I'll confess to some disappointment that this unveiling wasn't something more interesting to me. I already have a broken tube screamer, a 70's no-name phaser, and some patch cords that give me all the lo-fi I need. I was hoping for a pedal that uses AI to perfectly master my mixes to acceptable modern perfection. Then I'd get one of these to put after that. And then I'll play the blues.

@CorbCorbin Ай бұрын

The Kilobyte, with its karaoke chip delay, is my goto, for most leads, and quite a few rhythms. I remember it being promoted as a LoFi delay, but it’s much closer to a Echoplex tape delay, aged just right, to me. I like Source Audio’s digital pedals, and how they can be interchangeable, with one another. I’d love to have this Artifakt, but I recently got the Raster 2, and I’ve just finally figured out how to use a lot of its different features, within songs, both stereo and mono, as well as running the Kilobyte into it, for a nice dual delay sound.

@CorbCorbin Ай бұрын

@@bernarddoherty2303 Then don’t use them to make sounds from the past. Make something different. Use it in a way that doesn’t make sense at first, and work backwards. I’m not even talking about this particular pedal, but any and all of them. This has some cool things, especially for someone recording on a budget, using it in traditional ways. It also has a lot of interesting features, that someone with imagination could use to make something different.

If anyone could demonstrate the full capabilities of this pedal, I knew Andy would! It's likely to be a niche product but no doubt a lot of thought went into developing it. Great demo Andy.

I'm in love with the new form factor, but can't help but feel like this sounds all too digital, on every setting (I realize it is, but there are plenty of digital lofi pedals that sound less digital than this--see Chroma Console), including tape and vinyl. I think it seems like a super nice experimentation device, but this one's not for me.

@AndyDemos Ай бұрын

From my experiences, something could easily go from sounding “digital” to “warm” with just the slightest treble roll-off. The main filter can do that in an instant, although I wanted you guys to hear what the pedal was doing, so there is some trade-off. Thanks for the feedback 👍🏻

@rocknrollboise Ай бұрын

@@AndyDemos For sure! I was actually quite surprised because just about every product review I've seen by you has made me want the thing you are reviewing, as your playing, presentation, and implementation is just vastly superior to everyone else out there, but this one just came off sounding thin and artificial. Either way, thanks for all your incredible work, man! You're the GOAT.

first ever video I dislike in 12 years looking at loys of your demos. This pedal sounds only unorganic hype (except the verb). Something like a Line6 M5 would maybe already do as good, with much more preset slots but cheaper, nope??? yup, even the bit crush sounds "flat" ; cool for synths, I think...??. Hope someone will go the opposite way with this pedal on guitar by going full experimental in the settings and playing, would be much more interesting to me :D maybe I shall?
