My Digitech FreqOut pedal arrived yesterday..so I hooked it up to the Super Crush and jammed the ballad again, but with some harmonic wailing this time
It's a fun pedal and a bit more practical than a Sustainiac to use in the sense that it's more controllable/manageable (easier to step on/release a footswitch than flip multiple toggles on & off). I still have'nt got the hang of setting it up right to my exact preference but when I do I'm sure it can be used really convincingly for very amp-like sounds...
There's a setting that gets really awesome volume knob swells too (like the beginning of Rush's Xanadu)..I messed around with that a bit as well yesterday.."Less is less, more is more...how can less be more?" ~Yngwie J Malmsteen

But overall it's a hell of a lot easier to deal with than a Sustainiac. I think my Sustainiac is just set a bit too "intense" or sensitive from the factory .. I need to find the trimpot in there and dial that back a bit. With the Freqout it's just a matter of fiddling with the "intensity" knob until it feels comfortable to play and you don't need to do gymnastics with your fingers to mute everything & yet get the sustaining sounds you're after
Then you can get the effect to come in automatically ()and fast or slow..you can set that too) or only when you step on the pedal which is convenient/cool and beats having to switch toggles on and off in the middle of your solo's..
All in all a very cool pedal that sounds awesome and is a breeze to use."Less is less, more is more...how can less be more?" ~Yngwie J Malmsteen

Actually, after using the new Steinberg interface for a couple of days..I think it has pretty musical sounding preamps (maybe warmer/sweeter or something) than my Mackie which seems a bit more clinical. They both have their uses But I slightly prefer the tones I get recording with the Steinberg ..even more so than with my Audient ID4's mic input.
I now have the ID4 hooked up to my Two Notes Captor X (which I still have'nt begun using) cuz the mic input's at the back and it's more convenient having it hooked up that way on my desk.. both the Steinberg and the Mackie have the mic/instrument inputs in front which makes it a lot easier for plugging in a guitar/mic'd cab.
Anther thing I really like about the Steinberg is the ease of disconnecting the mic jack. It has a really nice smooth mic socket. I've broken a lot of coffee mugs (with coffee in them) in the past by knocking them off my desk when struggling to pull out mic cables from stubborn interfaces & the jack's suddenly jerking free. It's no fun cleaning up afterwards"Less is less, more is more...how can less be more?" ~Yngwie J Malmsteen

I swapped out the broken OnN/OFF toggle switch for a new one that works though it's just a temp cause aesthetically it's a different type with an LED tip.
I did have regular toggles like the standby switch next to it but they would'nt fit through the mouning hole in the panel (diameter too big)...this was the only one I had that did...at least I can switch it on and off from the amp now. I ordered a new switch on Amazon and hope that will fit. Worst case scenario... I'll have to file the mounting hole to make it bigger so I can use a switch I already have.
