NPD - Zoom MS-70CDR

hobbio

Well it works fine with the HB PP jr.

I love this pedal. I set up a patch with shimmer and delay, switched on my slicer and ditto, blinked, and it was an hour later. It's so inspirational! I'm really happy with my current set up, and there's a thorpy triangle muff clone coming tomorrow too to just give me that something extra.

I'm so happy I got this pedal, I can't see me ever selling it.

I'm going to be keeping both of mine too .. powerful beasts they are.

Mate, I was in ambient heaven last night! I will be again tonight too.

For the price, they're fucking stellar. I'd rather have four of these than a single Strymon stomp box. No I aint exaggerating!

hobbio

Can anyone tell me if it's got an auto swell?

Megii

Ambient heaven sounds like a good place to be! I'm thinking if I see one of these things going cheap, I may nab it - I like my G3 a lot, and it does have the amp sims for direct use, plus a USB interface etc. - but the smaller footprint, and wider range of mods/delays/verbs on the ms70cdr does appeal.

No - there's a slow attack delay but you need an MS50G to get the SlowATTCK model......

hobbio

@Megii I thoroughly recommend it, although they don't come up for sale very often and they fetch almost as much as a new one is from Thomann's right now (£53 delivered for a used one off ebay against £68 delivered new from Thomann complete with guarantee and a couple of batteries).

@Beexter thanks mate, I've played with the slow attack delay and the reverse delay a bit and it almost does what I want. I'll just have to use the volume knob instead!

Megii

Cheers @hobbio - I do know how good a lot of the models you've got are, since quite a lot of them are exactly the same as on the G3. The bang for the buck with all these Zoom pedals is pretty fantastic I think. Take your point re the new price at Thomann.

The beauty of these things hob is having one running into the other .. get a 100BT next, not now, just next and check out the Bass Organs .. putting the cdr in front of the 100bt will give different effect to putting the cdr after the 100bt .. welcome aboard sailor.. zoom ftw!

hobbio

I'll certainly be keeping my eye out for a cheap 100BT, but I'm in no mad rush. I should have bought 70CDR pedal months ago though.

@hobbio -the GuitarStrings patch does an auto-swell. Is that enough or not what you're after?

hobbio

I'll check it out mate, thanks for that
