Damn, they gave it to him? Iām so tired of every video I watch, the person says āso and so sent this over to me.ā Jesus Christ do these companies sell anything? Oh yeah, they DO, considering Iāve paid for every single piece of gear I have. This is really starting to get to me considering half of them have no idea what theyāre doing. The best way to use this pedal is to clock it, then you can actually control what comes out. Iām sending clock from OT and cue to MC. Works very well.

Oh I feel you 1000%. Thing that I wonder about is how much of this free stuff just ends up gathering dust on bookcases? I mean come on companies holler at your boy. Iād at least have it on a dozen of my never finished tracks.
Iāve heard a few of them say āItās going back soon,ā or words to that effect, so some of them are loans. Probably some are gifts, though. I find it interesting that Hologram is doing this push so long after the pedal was released.
not surprised, itās one of the most selling pedals in recent times,
I like shooks music, hologram new what they were doing, Iām sure they hope heāll incorporate it in his music when he learns more about it

thatās odd. mine is dead quiet. maybe you have a faulty unit ?
I suspect the power supplyā¦ Iāll open a ticket at Hologram.
Could someone explain the difference between the hold sampler and phrase looper?
Please write as you might to a young child, or a golden retriever. Iām slow.

The phrase looper isā¦ well a looper. You press, you play, it records, you press again and it plays back that loop.
The Hold is capturing a bit of what you just played and uses it as a shirt snippet in the back as a pad. You can then undo it by latching or pressing again.
I have yet to see the difference with the burst though, i forgot.
Also when using hold you can play over ut but with a dry sound. I donāt see the point tbh.

I was gifted one a few months ago and it was super noisy and I could only get signal out the left channel. I put it away and life distractions havenāt allowed me to revisit it.
Ahahah if you had to pay for it, maybe you would have taken more time to visit it 
I need to have friends or family who can make me gift like that

Actually it was a 10 year anniversary present from my job. And I havenāt revisited it because I had knee surgery and busy with rehab and stuff. lol
Thatās the trick, iād need a job for 10 years Good luck with the rehab!
This is such a marvellous effect box. Just got it and Iām very happy with it. Feels like an instrument.
Hereās an ambient analog synth looper jam:

How so? According to Hologram electronics theyāre supposed to handle all custom/VAT charges in advance.

yeah - that doesnāt sound right. Iām in the UK - when I ordered from Hologram that was it - the price I paid was the end of it, no extra charges.

They actually ARE handling all charges ā but that doesnāt mean that they are PAYING for them. Their wording is āFor your convenience, import tax / duties for orders outside of the US are automatically calculated under āSales Taxā and included in the final checkout price. Paying these fees in advance allows for faster and more convenient international delivery.ā
Whenever I buy from the US, whether itās shirts, the M8, or anything else, Iāll be charged customs. Thereās a customs office that collaborates with the package companies (DHL, FedEx, UPS etc) ā and they cannot hand out the item to you, if the customs fee hasnāt been paid already.
This can turn out to be a multi-week process with several mails ā if the sender isnāt aware of this, it can be super tedious. For Hologram to precalculate the customs fee, and charge it from me, is exactly the kind of service I want.
