Must Have Effects!!

[loudriver23]

O.K. you have your guitar, you have your amp. You can only bring one effect pedal with you. Which pedal are you absolutely, positively bringing to the gig?

For me... I'm love messing around with a delay.

Re: Must Have Effects!!

that's an easy one for me...aside from a boss pedal tuner i only use an MXR EVH phase 90...no other pedals for now...just a bunch of amp gain and some phase or some clean phase...that's all i need!!

Re: Must Have Effects!!

im definitely going with a delay unit. They just make the sound so much better in my opinion and you can even get weird noises out of them.

IMHO The Tube Screamer is the Amex card for Guitarist. :laugh2:

Re: Must Have Effects!!

I am not really a big fan of effects, but I love clean sound with a good chorus. :dance:

Re: Must Have Effects!!

If it was an amp that I didn't know, I'd bring an EQ for tweaking the tone. If I knew it was something I can dial in, I'd bring a delay.

Re: Must Have Effects!!

You'd do better asking what FX I can live without! :laugh2:

No really though...I dig my fx..but I won't walk out of the house w/o a wah pedal, my Pro Co Rat, and an Octave box.

Re: Must Have Effects!!

My Wah is the only pedal i use, so i went with 'cry baby' even though my wah is actually a Vox, as i presume you mean wah when putting cry baby?

Re: Must Have Effects!!

there's 2 that i can't live without, but i am currently living without one, i need a bloody EQ.
Really though, i can't live without my big muff USA for a solo boost, and i am gonna buy an EQ pedal soon.

d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-elay!

 

[mrfjones]

Re: Must Have Effects!!

i had to choose other. i have a octave/fuzz pedal that i don't think i could live without.

 

[Old Ghost]

Re: Must Have Effects!!

That would be a Chorus Pedal for me.

Re: Must Have Effects!!

MXR Dynacomp compressor. MY Amex card...

 

[LesStrat]

Re: Must Have Effects!!

Then again, the Dynacomp is sampled into my POD xt Live...soooo...I guess the one I won't leave home without NOW is the POD xt Live!

Re: Must Have Effects!!

chorus --> ehx small clone...
2nd would be delay for clean and/or solo
distortion comes from preamp (or pedal that mimics preamp)

Reverb.

Definitely NOT what I'd expect from you. Where the hell do find room for reverb in extreme metal?

I voted distortion, btw.
