What pedals do you use?

[shimmilou]

I never owned separate pedals, didn't want to go down that rabbit hole, and didn't care for the hassle of extra equipment to carry anyway. I have used a few multi-effects units, but they have their own hassles, especially trying to remember the settings and the dance to get to each. Then I found this, which is a multi-effects unit but also has separate sections, each has multiple assignable choices for the type of pedal you want, so it is like a pedal board on which you can easily change pedals, up to 8 total at one time, counting the vol/wah pedal, which is also assignable to effects. I use it like a pedal board having; Amp model (EQ), compression, chorus, distortion, flanger, reverb, delay and vol/wah, each independently switchable. This is perfect for me.

In short, you were looking for a multi fx pedal with analog style controls

The Boss Multi-FX pedals are cool. Even though I have the Helix and Pod Go, if I could turn back time and just get something like that Boss ME, I would.

Ultimately I found the Helix and Pod Go limiting (not lacking). The ME looks like it wouldn't have those issues!

Helix nowadays but it used to be a Rat and a wah

Santana's new signature pedal just came out... might go well with my set-up, seeing that I own a Santana SE with Framton PE pickups

Super Natural

The Super Natural Overdrive is crafted to capture the signature tones of guitarist Santana . This pedal delivers the warm, saturated overdrive that defined his sound from the smooth sustain, dynamic response, and expressive textures that fuels his iconic playing. His tones are fat - articulate...

They seem super excited about being able to finally release it. I haven't ordered one yet, on the fence about it. Been meaning to give this company a try.

I went ahead and ordered the new Santana signature pedal lol I guess you could say I couldn't resist. I also ordered their Dickey Betts tribute pedal, because it interested me ever before it released. We'll see how it goes!

Cash grabs or just good ol' paddlers?

Catalinbread came out with 2 new pedals:

A Fuzz Face clone and a Tube Screamer clone, albeit, that both these are highly modified and have unique features that set them apart...

I suggest listening to a sound sample.

I ordered the Sidearm, which is the 70's style Tube Screamer. I love what I hear on the demo, definitely not Tube screamery by any means. Kinda reminds me of the Moxie which was a Tube Screamer clone as well but like the Sidearm, had unique features. The Sidearm should be arriving tomorrow...

You decide.

Yet another Show Your Pedalboard thread

Do these things ever stay still? I tried a completely different approach than usual for a gig tonight. Not sure I like my delay being before the volume pedal — I usually have one after it for swells and stuff, but I can do them from the guitar volume anyway. Broadcast (Germanium) —> Thorpy...

PolyTune tuner (w/buffer), MXR DynaComp, Boss 59 Bassman, EP Booster, Hot Box Dual Drive (KOT clone), Neo Ventilator (original big as a house pedal) on my main board.
Korg Pitchback tuner, Boss 59 Bassman, Timmy, Mosaic (12 string effect) and Mooer ReEcho on my smaller board.

12 hours of playing Catalinbread's new Transparent Tube Screamer, it's pretty sweet!

I mostly play rhythm in my band and get bored pretty quick, just playing standard rock/blues rhythms (2 guitars). So, I like to play around with different tones, inversions, triads, widespread chords, just to try to spice things up a bit. Make the band sound bigger than it is.

I dig Brett. He does great reviews.

I’m a bit of a pedal junkie myself and can totally relate to having a bunch of boards and setups. For my PRS, I’m a big fan of adding a touch of overdrive and some delay—really brings out the tonal richness of the guitar.

I recently added a few Way Huge Smalls pedals to my setup too, and they’ve been great for adding some unique flavors to my sound.

Welcome to the forum

This is what I currently run through from right to left, then into Guitar Rig 7 on PC here at home.

The black pedal next to the modded TS9/808 is an AnaloMan Bi-Comprossor which is kinda like AnalogMan's remake clone of the old Ross Compressor pedals combined with the 'Juicer'. I just have a bad camera.

I’ve always kept my pedal setup pretty basic, but for my PRS, I love experimenting. One of my favorite setups starts with a decent overdrive for some crunch, then I add in a touch of delay and reverb for space—really brings out the PRS's clarity and sustain.
If you’re into exploring techniques or looking to improve your tone overall, I found some great resources on www.artmaster.com. They’ve got lessons that helped me tighten up my playing and understand how to really get the most out of the gear I have.
