New Cheap Pedals Day

Re: New Cheap Pedals Day

Or you could just get that thing Mincer posted....

Yes, and I have one on order. As mentioned, I tried to do the same thing with the JOYO pedals, and was semi-successful, but the noise (hiss) of the JOYO Amer. Snd. & Brit. Snd. is problematic. A NR pedal does remove the hiss, but as we all know, to at least some degree they suck some tone. At least that's my opinion.....so the quest continues.

EDIT: And to duplicate the function of the Tech 21 Fly Rig 5, you need 6 pedals (Am. Snd., Brit. Snd, Rvb., Dly., clean Boost, and Noise Reduction). @ approx. $40 each, that's $240 versus the $250 of the Fly Rig 5 and lesser tone quality (At least I think so now, 'til I get one of my own.)

Re: New Cheap Pedals Day

Dang my ears are still ringing

Ok with two pa speakers it works
The American amp plays thru speaker one
And the Reverb trails across both speakers
Same with the British amp thru speaker two

The Reverb sounds great thick and lush

With both amps engaged it sounds huge and full
Either one sounds great
But when EQ'd together it sounds incredible

So I added.the Chorus ahead of the Morley

Guitar-Chorus - Morley- Amps- Reverb -Speakers

Instant howl
The Reverb don't like that Chorus at all
Refuses to exist in the chain with it

When engaged , any knob (Blend and Time)
Raised above nothing started a feedback howl
Even with the Chorus switched off

Ok so the chorus is swirly
Without the reverb engaged it doesn't shift across the speakers

It should be after the preamps anyways
Maybe should be a stereo Chorus.
After the Reverb

Tomorrow we'll look in on the compressor

Don't just pull numbers from your bum to justify your opinions

I haven't!
$42 each is what I paid for each of my JOYO's purchased from USA distributors. I don't care to purchase them direct from China, and that's ($42) the best price I found from USA.....not saying a lower price doesn't exist. I don't form an opinion and then make up stats to justify it.

Just got mine from amazon

Not on sale
not shipped from China
Priced from $28-$31

If you paid $42 someone ripped you off


Edit
Nevermind

Whatever you want to say
This is the internet after all

Re: New Cheap Pedals Day

Regardless whether the 'system' cost $180 or $240 compared to the Tech 21 Fly Rig 5 @$250, IF it is sonicly inferior, $70 less or $10 less doesn't matter to me. The JOYO's amp sim pedals are well documented to be hissy and most people agree that NR pedals suck tone (both consistent with my experience with them). I don't yet know about the Tech 21 Fly Rig 5 for sure via first hand experience, but I certainly will. I haven't heard any negative reports on it as yet, and the demos sound great.

If you are pleased with your 'JOYO based system', I am very happy for you. Too bad you're unable to accept other's contrasting viewpoints and become defensive and combatant.

Best to you.

Re: New Cheap Pedals Day

Hey - I'm just pointing out that he is going to a lot of trouble, as Mincer just posted his thread.

I do applaud the ingenuity of the effort. SOmetimes it is also about the fun and entertainment of do-it-yourself.

Either way I'm down.

Mincers gear is friction' cool and Dave is a beast about sensible gig stuff.

However, Ed has a fascinating and roughly equivalent option going on. Very cool also IMO (if a bit of a hassle).

All about the options.

Re: New Cheap Pedals Day

So the compressor is dead quiet when shut off

When on the effects are subtle with knobs at twelve

Note carries long as sustain knob increases

The attack knob squishes the signal more

In short does what a compressor does

No extra noise

Re: New Cheap Pedals Day

Now hear me out...

Say you mounted the 15" speaker to the roof of the versa, right? You could have the most insanely portable gigging machine on the planet. You wouldn't even have to unpack anything or worry about renting a van.

Hehe

18"woofer in the hatch

Like in back the future

Throw hatch open
Stand on roof
Rock out

Re: New Cheap Pedals Day

Ok the chorus has to go

It has a high squeal artifact in any of my combos
With it on or not

Sending it back
Dang it


EDIT

Friggin speaker cable
Got mixed in with my instrument cables

Howl has left with proper cables

Chorus is a swirly go.

Re: New Cheap Pedals Day

Nice..I've got that Biyang reverb...it's pretty awesome!

[ehdwuld]

Re: New Cheap Pedals Day

Some of the YouTube reviews said the A/B switch on the reverb
Was not good sounding in A

But I kinda like the "driven room reverb"

The Biyang is lush
