I live the RV500 and the HX Stomp for reverb. The Stomp used to be just decent for reverb, but Line6 upped their game and now it's really good.
Slightly OT, but the only shimmersh reverb I've played that didn't make me want to hurl was using the Boss SY-200 in the loop of the HX Stomp with an...
I was always a big fan of guitar magazines and used to buy and really enjoy Guitarist even though I had to get it at the foreign magazine shop and pay a small fortune. I thought it was pretty cool when I stumbled on TPS and the former editor was one of the hosts. With all of these shows I think...
Does anyone know if there's a way to access only the effect you have in the loop? I currently have an Eventide Ultratap in the loop of the SY-200 and I'd occasionally like to be able to access the Ultratap without having a synth sound.
I'm not much of a soloist, but lately I've really been enjoying layering in a pad sound from the Boss SY-200. I'm not using it as overt synth sound. I have it mixed where you kind of need to listen for it, but you know when it's not there.
Everyone's entitled to their opinion, but this sure aint mine and I was there in the 80's too. I'd much rather listen to processed 80's style tones than some guy playing blues cliches on a Strat straight into a tube amp, or a modern metal guy plugged straight into a high gain super duper tube...
Pretty early on in my journey someone gave me a Boss OD-2 to use because they were using my TS-10 and I hated the Boos. It just felt like it didn't do anything.
Underrated pedal. I've never actually owned one, but I bought one for my nephew and have played it a bunch and liked the tones I was getting out of it a lot.
I've said this in other threads, but if I was going for those tones I'd want an Eventide Micropitch and their Tricerachorus would probably be great for this as well. Of course you could always get an H9 which I think has both algorithms.
I've always liked playing through anything that I can get a guitar signal into and out of. It's all different sounds and they're all fun in different ways for me.
I'd probably go for an XL if it had the processing power. I currently use my Stomp with a Blackstar Live Logic. I like having the option of just grabbing the stomp, or having it on a board with the controller though.
I use an SY-200 with my EHX Stomp. The great thing about the Stomp is I can put it anywhere in the chain on a per patch basis so it really depends what I'm going for.
I run an Eventide Ultratap in the SY's loop. One of the things that's nice about this is I can mess with the attack of the...
If it's what I would consider a commodity item, something readily available new and used and not collectible, I expect to pay at least 30% off retail price. If there's something I really wanted that wasn't readily available used I might do 20%, but most of the time you can get the item new for...
Thanks for sharing the info! I really like the MPX. I know it's kind lower end to midrange, but I'm very happy with the sounds I get out of those units. They still sound better to me then any of the plugins I've used.
Totally understandable if you can't share this, but were these custom algorithms for this pedal, or were they ported from one of the rack units? I'm just curious as I'm a fan of the Lexicon sound. I've got an MPX-1 and an MPX-550 and one day I'd like to add one of the higher end units.
