AxeFX Fx8 - Dive Bomb type sounds?

[Bash_Man]

hey everyone,
Without having an expression pedal, setting up one of the buttons as momentary, is it possible to setup a sound to emulate a Dive Bomb type sound?

If you listen to the into from the Black Keys "Lonley Boy", I am sorta looking to do something similar.

thoughts?

Thanks

Try on the fractal audio forum (fx8 discussion)

On the HX Stomp you can do this with a Whammy + expression pedal. Set the toe to an octave down - instant virtual dive bombs.

Not too knowledgeable with the FX8 but I'd wager you could do the same thing.

Thank you. Is it possible to do this without an expression pedal?

On the Helix, yes. You can assign a switch to jump to a preset number of intervals. I used this at one point as a one-button-whammy, but found an expression pedal to be handier.

Again, I'm not sure about the FX8.
