Latest Pedalboard...

Re: Latest Pedalboard...

Spent quite a bit of time playing and tweaking last night...I hardly ever get time alone to practice/tinker.

I love the Wampler Faux Tape! It's got that warm analogy sway to it. It's a perfect compliment to the T1M DD-5.

The RawkWorks sounded good no matter where I had it set & the Euphoria is all it's been advertised to be!

The Eterna can get very, very ethereal, but when i have it scaled way back, it just has this "space" to it that's very cool!

The chorus is set right where i like it. Just ever so slightly modulating my overall sound. Nothing crazy, just where the tone is a bit thicker.

The Fhusk CS-3 "Hosspressor" & the EM-Drive are my secret weapons. They are "always" on. The Fhusk definitely has the hardest job on my board...to make me sound better and clean up my playing...it does that in spades!

The EM-Drive gives my sound this overall presence that's hard to explain. Things sound fine with it off, but with it on...there's a "sparkle" and "edge" that truly wakes up what you're doing in a very musical & pleasing way. I NEVER turn it off.

Sounds like me. I alway have my EmDrive and Ego Comp on and the Wampler FTE is so great. Ilike your board! I'm probably am going to a vibe pedal to my setup! A Villanova or a Retro Vibe!

Only thing I find myself wanting from time to time is a Tremolo. I could probably squeeze a Lovepedal Babyface Trem on there, i used to have one & never should have gotten rid of it!
 
Re: Latest Pedalboard...

Actually...i really like this! Especially for the size! I think i could fit it in sideways underneath my Chorus?!

When you have to refinance your mortgage to fund a pedalboard you know you've spent too much time on TGP. :p
 
Re: Latest Pedalboard...

So Hoss, you dumped the TC Corona Chorus? I'm just curious what you didn't like about it? (always been curious about the Corona) I like my Chorus to have subtle modulation but still retain that thick bright shimmer and doubling effect to the clean channel. Does the Mr. Black beat the Corona in terms of that?

The only Chorus I have now is an MXR Micro Chorus and its ok..... just looking to try something else.
 
Re: Latest Pedalboard...

just curious but what does that EM drive sound like... I keep seeing them on forums and have no clue what they are like.. would it sound good with higher gain and stacking ?

Haven't had the Corona for quite awhile. I bought a EQD Sea Machine Chorus after that. It was a fantastic Chorus as well. However, the Mr. Black is fantastic at subtle modulation and shimmer!

The EM-Drive is unlike any pedal i've ever tried. It's not so much a Drive as it is a "tone enhancer". It adds this sparkly presence and also an edge to your tone and playing.

this sounds exactly what i'm looking for... too bad i'm broke but next time I splurge on a pedal it will either be the EP booster or this EM drive

EDIT- just watched this demo.... for sure the tool I'm looking for, thanks for bringing it to my attention

Thanks for the info. I'll definitely look into the Mr. Black then. I'm still curious... what didn't you like about the Corona Chorus?

I'm glad i could point you in a good direction! The guy who owns/runs Emerson is a super great guy too! I love when that happens!

I ended up selling the Corona out of nece$$ity. I only bought other pedals afterwards because i'm a pedal junky and i like to try new stuff out, not that there was anything wrong with the Corona at all.
