Okay... I need to sort my board out...

Drew_TNBD

Tbh a Strymon Mobius would do me for the phasers - plus expandability options too. Plus midi.

I'm current looking at the Pigtronix Echolution 2 Deluxe, which looks pretty decent. I could get two of them for less than the price of two Timelines.

Basically.. if I can make all my front end pedals midi capable... I can use a midi controller to control my amp and effects quite easily. Pedals in the loop of the amp can be ordinary single stomps.

It's kinda fucked, coz I did a quick sketch up of what I need *functionally* this morning on the train...



How the fuck I'm gonna get something to do all this I don't know...

@Drew_FX, what you want is some sort of rack mount multi-fx unit, like an Axe-FX II.  I know someone who's got one for sail. You could then change your forum name to Drew_Axe_FX

heheheheheh... you bellend Chris

I do try, Drew. I do try.

I like to think that I am the Drew to your Emp.

I have a few pigtronix bits and I really like them but the 18v power requirement sucks balls

Yeah it is putting me off slightly.

Out of interest... what other single pedal delays give you external tap tempo and a reverse mode, other than the DD7??

monquixote

Marshall Echohead, Behringer.

Not sure you would want either of them.

Have you had a look at any of the Source Audio stuff, this could store 2 Phaser sounds I reckon.

They also do a reverb in a similar format, then go all out for the delay with a timeline or similar.

oooooo... and through the multi-function in, it supports midi.... they all do it looks like.

monquixote

The Source Audio stuff all supports MIDI, but in a roundabout way. 

The pro range support full MIDI out of the box, The twos support full MIDI via the hub and the one series can be switched on and off via the hub.

Andy does a nice video of how you can use them.

I think it's daft they don't do a delay. 

Drew_TNBD

This sounds pretty damn good to me...

One of my plans before I got the GT-100 was to get a MIDI pedal and an Orbital Modulator 

Drew_TNBD

I like their prices, and they seem to have some really good features. Right now... I'm mulling on how you'd set up say the Orbital Modulator and Dimension Reverb, with two other brand delay pedals and a midi controller.

monquixote

I think it's baffling they don't do a delay. 

They claim they are working on a looper and a MIDI pedal. 

Drew_TNBD

Yeah I saw they are working on a midi pedal. There is quite a cool HUB box you can use to simplify using an external midi controller with the Soundblox 2 pedals.

I'd never looked much at their other pedals. I had their EQ, and it was really cool. But... was just EQ, nothing to get excited about really.

Is there any way you could get a Boss GT 001 (assuming same functionality as the 100 but small), one/two MIDI delays, and switch it with your FCB1010?

They've missed a trick with that as the GT001 is tiny and very inexpensive. Having one on a MIDI board would be amazing.

However because it only has one screen it is quite hard to program compared to the GT-100. 

Drew_TNBD

Rough plan coming together. But @Monquixote, Source Audio are working on a delay pedal, rough timeframe January, according to them on Facebook.

monquixote

That's cool. 

I seriously thought about getting a hub and a source audio board, but the lack of delay made it kind of pointless.

Drew_TNBD

I had a good look over their demos last night. I'm not convinced the reverb would do what I want, because it lacks a Hall algorithm.
