as it should be

I'd say, that things like these do a better job of capturing the original gear sounds:

I'm still in love with my echolution 2 though...

Ah yeah I have some builds of my own that do the original sounds better, as well as a real tape echo, but that one has so many extra options and a looper for about the price of any of those Catalinbread pedals separately.

I won't be buying one either way.

I highly doubt I'll buying one either way.

It's one of those things - is a looper part of your thing, then why not buy a proper one...? Really like tape echo sound? Why not get the best one out there?

Then again, if something sounds good enough, why not get a multi-fx unit?

I eventually sold my timeline because I found I didn't use most of the engines - or the looper - and the sounds I did use - analogue and tape sounds - weren't very good, relative to what they were trying to sound like.

It's all about finding a compromise you can live with. The sound quality of the TCE stuff is just too much of a compromise for me. But if other stuff was more important like the size, price, the looper -- then it's pretty cool!

M5 or similar would be the other option alright. As I've said twice now it wouldn't be for band use as I have those basses covered. Can't I just play with the idea of having one of these for home messing about or are you just gonna keep telling me I'm wrong?

I think the TCE Lad I posted up above sounds lush, maybe I'm just used to muck

Sorry if it came across like that. I wasn't trying to say you were wrong at all.

Just chatting is all.

I have this thing - some sort of ailment I think - where my chatty posts online make people think I'm a dick.

If you like it then sweet!

I just can't get into the TCE sound. To my ears it sounds very digital. Same with the reverb, which I owned, I just... It's not for me.

If you like it, then fantastic!

It's all good but you were getting pushy on your opinion being the right one.

I have yet to find a way to express my opinion without it eventually pissing someone off.

I never intend to. In person when I talk to people, it usually works out ok.

I am just prepared at this point to have to apologise and always try and be more clear.

 

[Space]

Ah you certainly didn't piss me off or anything. Have you tried any of the (uni)vibes around these days? Or any interest in that kinda thing?

I'm interested and have tried a few, like the déjàvibe and the Effectrode one, and a few others. I'd like a go on the new one that's just been released. Quite interesting! I always think a proper vibe needs a pedal to control it

Any recommendations?

 

[ernesto]

What's a decent expression pedal that's not silly expensive or stupidly big?

 

[ann post]

loads of the ones that range from 10-70 are identical with slightly different plastic stuff on the outside. i.e. my expression pedal for my line 6 thing is the same as 10eu one i got for my tremelo, with 2-3 more parts and a line 6 sticker. I don't know what a good one is.

 

[MilanPan!c]

That moog one seems to be very good value... but they don't seem to be in shops in Ireland...

Moog EP-3 - Thomann Ireland

€42... so very affordable

Don't really have any recommends, I've enjoyed the Dunlop rotosound in the wah case but am using a DIY one that's pretty close to the Dejavibe. Currently waiting on the DIY guys (madbean) to bring out their vibe pcb that works in a wah shell then I'll be all over that. Few people I know have been raving about the Oxfuzz OXVIBE.

I had a voodoo labs microvibe, since sold. I bought it thinking it was the same as a rotary leslie effect. I have a line6 rotomachine it's okay. Seriously degrades your tone when on. Pity.

ah yes... quite different

I just avoid line 6 stuff like the plague... I'm sure some of it's nice, but I'm not gonna wade through it all to find the gems...

I like any vibe that have a "throb" knob as that's kinda the whole point

I'll check out some demos...

Someone did a great vibe comparison on youtube... hang on...

If I had the money it'd be the one I'd want I guess... though.. I don't really know vibes well enuogh to maybe really get the most out of them - Jimi Hendrix I am not.
