OOPS! - NPD today!

Paul_C

Having survived yesterday evening's alcohol intoxication without buying anything (mostly by watching Porco Rosso and The Grand Budapest Hotel and thus spending less time on the forum) I have today succumbed and placed an order for a new pedal, which might get here in time to be considered a 2014 pedal, freeing up 2015 for more purchases

I'm sure no-one wants to be teased as to what it might be, so I won't keep you in suspense beyond the end of this post.

What the devil does this do?

EQD can do almost no wrong. 

Its a good time for pedals with EQD, Mr Black and Empress effects

Love the sounds, but it sounds like there is some background noise at 4.49 when he clicks it in. 

Could just be the switch though? if it's a standard true bypass. It says true bypass, but not what sort of switch it is. 

Proper nice sounds, though, I could spend hours playing with that.  I'll have to try one and see what the noise level is actually like.

I'll let you know what I find.

I'm collecting pedals together for some ambient looping fun and I couldn't resist it in the end, it'll go with:

Boss RC-50 Loop Station
Rainbow Machine + expression pedal
Vox Delaylab
EHX Freeze
EHX Organ Machine
Weeping Demon Wah

I've got a Vox Tonelab for various other bits and pieces but there are one or two other pedals I might pick up (Flanger Hoax/Pitchfork etc.) if the funds materialise

Absolutely, and actually, a bit of noise might even be a useful thing for some ambient stuff (which is a genre I've started getting into more recently).  Definitely keep me posted, it would be unusual for EQD to sell something rubbish. 

I'm hoping they've used a clever switching mechanism, as I've had enough true bypass switches fail on me that I never want to use one again

Edit: it would be awesome for writing Warpaint style tunes, too.  

I'm talking myself into getting one, in case you hadn't noticed.

I think you should, I did a fine job of convincing myself that only that particular pedal would do, despite having not yet plugged the Delaylab in to see what it can do!

get it plugged in man. You are missing some truly wonderful noises.

Stop it, bad Paul!

Gotta get my delay and chorus fixed first, they're heading to juansolo next week.  

And I really need to sell my other chorus pedal... 

But a reverb is definitely on the cards, and this one is a really cool sound without being shitely easy to overuse (*cough* shimmer). Very nice.

I had to pack all my pedals away to make room for the Xmas tree - I'll be setting everything back up soon!

Johnnyseven

Sounds a bit like my Boss RV3.

Bellycaster

Really impressive sonic capabilities with that thing. That damned Andy is bad for the Bank Balance. Enjoy experimenting with that.

Very, very nice sounding pedal. ....enjoy =D>

That's what i was thinking )

Nice score

Paul_C

It has arrived safe and sound

I've had a quick play to make sure it all works - no noise when switched on/off @ThePrettyDamned

Next task is to get all the other pedals out and work out what goes where

That's good! makes me wonder if it was the guitar PGS used. 

Great sounding thing thanks for the update.

So true.

I've just totted up this year's spending on pedals (since September!) and it stands at just over £700, so maybe I'd better calm down !
