Is the Strymon's Drive all stereo usable?
Any recommandation on a stereo drive?
cheers
I'm lost. I would like to use my MIniFreak with the Boss RV-500 and connect to my mac to record in Logic Pro. But I have no idea how. I tried running Midi out on the synth to mini in on the Boss then USB to my Mac. But I get nothing. Not sure how to set it up, any help would be kindly appreciated
Hi there! Question related to a couple of pedals to use with several synths at the same time:
I currently have two synths (korg microkorg, a midi keyboard that runs some Juno pads) and a Nord Stage 3.
I also have a 1 delay and 1 reverb pedal that I would like to use on all 3 of them. I would only be using one or two of the 3 instruments at a time.
I was wondering what the best way to do this would be, without losing gain or quality in the chain.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks!
Hi everyone, I am a hobbyist musician looking for advice on reverbs.
TL;DR: I'm looking for a reverb and am very undecided between something "plain" with stereo in and out and the Walrus Lore (a completely different beast with a completely different flavour).
In order to make more sense of this question, let me share some background information. So far, I have an analog synth with a built-in weird reverb and a mono out, plus a digital synth with a built-in stereo delay (hence stereo out). The digital synth would benefit from a touch of reverb here and there, especially on piano-like patches. The presets sometimes manage to overcome this limitation through a sprinkle of delay; however, to my hobbyist ears this seems more of a workaround than a solid sound design decision. Hence the desire of getting a reverb.
(Notice that I'm not a live musician, so there's always the possibility of working in a DAW and adding some digital FX where needed, so strictly speaking I don't "need" a reverb. But I would enjoy it a lot: that, to me, is the point of being a hobbyist musician).
While looking for stereo in-stereo out reverb pedals (a very unusual breed in the world of guitar pedals, especially under 300-350 arbitrary economic units) I stumbled across the Walrus Lore. It is a bit pricey, but I find it very alluring to the point of overcoming the limitation that it is a mono pedal.
I can see three different options.
I'm welcoming any suggestions in approaching this question. Thanks everyone and sorry for the wall of text!
Hi everyone. After a good experience in pairing a paraphonic synth with two oscillators (Dreadbox Nyx v2) with my first pedal (EHX Overlord), I am considering buying also a chorus and an octaver for a more bright and full sound. Is this choice somewhat redundant?
As for the pedals themselves, I have eyed the Digitech Nautila (the chances of getting it on the secondary market are rather slim, but I still have some hope) and the EHX pitchfork. If you have any suggestions, let me know!
Edit: in the end, I got the pitchfork and the Neunaber Inspire. And no, nothing redundant in that setup! ;)
Greetings!
I'd like to try a good stereo chorus pedal on my MF. I have a budget of around £150.
My idea is to make pads like a Juno but with more options and without the expense. Seeing as I can't really test run pedals, I've been watching videos and reading reviews.
I'm hoping you guys can give me some insight. I like -
TRUETONE V3 H20 - seems nice but a little pricey and I don't need the delay. Worth it?
Black Country Customs Spiral Array - this is my favourite. It's made near me, it's versatile and it sounds great. Any users here?
Your wisdom and suggestions shall be gratefully received.
I just discovered that I could use guitar effects with keyboards. I am currently running my mini pedal board through a mixer into my arranger. I’m wondering if there is a way to directly run the loop and how to set it up. I’ve only got a reverb and delay effects.
