What do you have only one of?

Securb

One of Jerry's Kids
A question for the pedal hoarders and stompbox junkies. When it comes to boosts, chorus, delays, dirt and others I have tons of options, multiple stand alone boxes. The VH flangers thread got me thinking. Of all of my types pedals there are few that I only have one option. To me this is huge being satisfied with one box seeing flange is one of my favorite effects. I do have a couple of multi-effects that will get me a great flange but I find it interesting I have one stand alone flanger. I want to know what you only have one of, especially if you ditched other pedals of that type after you got it. I won't include my Ring Mod or Talk Box because those are rare birds in my eyes. Not too many people have them on their board let alone multiple versions.

Pitch - Eventide PitchFactor - ditched my Whammy
Tremolo - MOOG MF Trem - ditched my UniVibe
Flanger - Moogerfooger - ditched my MXR Mini and MXR M-117R
 
Re: What do you have only one of?

Great topic.

My initial thought was "Ring Mod!" But your restriction makes sense. ;)

I'll say Chorus. I technically have two (there's an Ibanez Tone-Lok Chorus/Flanger somewhere around here) but my main chorus, always on my board now is a Voodoo Lab Analog Chorus. I dismissed Chorus as cheesy, 80's and "digital" until I heard this pedal. I usually run the rate and depth high for a faux-Leslie tone, but even in more traditional usage it sounds pretty darn good. I may swap wahs, fuzz, overdrives and delay, but the chorus is fixed for now.

EDIT - Oh yeah, for tremolo I only have a Shape Shifter.

I have only one:
rotary/univibe pedal - BOSS RT-20
tape saturation - strymon DECO

Out of 30-some pedals, it is amazing how much redundancy I have lol
 
Re: What do you have only one of?

At the moment I have only one pedal that I use 6 band EQ MXR.




Ditched T.C Electronics MoJOMojo overdrive
 
Re: What do you have only one of?

Chorus...but only for my acoustic. Boss CE-5. Well technically I have two of them...one for my small acoustic rig and one for my big acoustic rig. I run the rate at 9 o'clock and the depth at 3 o'clock with the level full up. It really fattens up the peizo's tone and give me that faux 12 string sound.

For electric I've got a a Fulltone MDV3 (univibe) and the Hartman flanger ...so my swirl's covered pretty good there.
 
Re: What do you have only one of?

Chorus - EHX Neo Clone
Delay - Boss DD-6

Not a massive effects guy but those are the only two I've got of that type. Got a few overdrives and all that.
 
Re: What do you have only one of?

Ya know I bought a second chorus because I thought it would be better than the Joyo I had
It isn't

Phaser = MXR Phase 90
Reverb = Biayang Baby Boom Tringas Tri Reverb
Delay = digitech DL8

Re: What do you have only one of?

h&k rotosphere is my only real modulation effect other than tremolo. no chorus or flanger or phaser or anything like that. the duncan shape shifter is my only trem pedal but my old fender amps have that built in too. the duncan pup booster is my only clean boost i can recall having. boss oc2 my only octave pedal.

I only have 1 fuzz, 1 treble booster, 1 flanger, 1 chorus. 2 wahs (one inductorless, the other a modded Crybaby), and 3 Bogner pedals. Good enough; I don't need more. I hate daisy chaining pedals.
 
Re: What do you have only one of?

Chorus - 'coz the Retrosonic is hard to beat.
Comp - Keeley 2 knob. I actually preferred my old CMATMODS that I sold .... dohhhh
 
Re: What do you have only one of?

Phaser - one Behringer w/ vintage-mod switch.
Why? Because I could give a rats @$$ about phaser most days of the year.

Compressor
Why? Monte Allums Opto, none more needed.

I DO NOT own an EQ!
