I had a Yamaha FX500 back in the early nineties: that patch was one of the too few highlights. And even in bypass it would lop about 10db off your signal. After a year or so of frustration and the impression that someone had thrown a moving blanket over my amp, I unloaded it and went back to analog pedals.

'With its roots in that patch, the Catalinbread Soft Focus is intended to be an instant shoegaze button, while addressing the most glaring issues of the original unit: no mix control, a sub-par preamp, and a ghastly tone-sucking bypass signal.'

The SL-2 is dope af. I could just let audacity record for hours while I mess around with it and have a dozen legit song ideas. If you ever experience creative block just start experimenting with it. It lends itself to out-of-the-box ideas and techniques. I had a defective fuzz pedal that I ran into a Boss GT-1 multi effects on a harmonist patch with the expression pedal bending pitch up an octave then into the slicer. Instant inspiration. There are also downloadable patches in addition to the stock ones. I think there are somewhere in the range of 8 expansion packs. I'd highly recommend it for anyone who makes electronic music and also plays guitar because you can make a lot of unguitarlike, synthesizerish tones.

... there was some kind of delay when the Slicer was supposed to release last September. Not even Sweetwater or Guitar Center could get it. Now it's out. This kind of sample & hold sequencer is something that really hasn't been available to guitarists (except in Boss' previous iterations, or in their synth pedals,) and this video was an opportunity missed. Could have been really interesting.
