nosajwp Posted November 5, 2005 Posted November 5, 2005 What is your favorite version of each of these?OD/BoosterWahChorus/FlangerDelayPhaserEQMisc (any other notable mention)Also, if your favorite for more than one of these turns out to be a multi-effect unit, please mention that.
ZR Posted November 5, 2005 Posted November 5, 2005 I've had my Rocktron Multivalve multi FX rack unit for many years. I've never been tempted to switch...yet! It's like a Replifex but with a 12ax7 tube you can run the signal through to warm up the signal (it actually works). I need to swap out the tube and see how it changes things. I haven't yet because they put that white/clear silicone goop all over it so it makes it hard to get out!
edgar_allan_poe Posted November 5, 2005 Posted November 5, 2005 Booster....the rest just gets in the way of tone.
seeker Posted November 5, 2005 Posted November 5, 2005 I prefer running amps at full tilt, getting power tube and some preamp distortion.However, this isn't always practical, so do like to use a good booster/distortion to get lower volume breakup. Otherwise, I'm an absolute sucker for Phasers if Pink Floyd/Hawkwind is on the brain.

Brewmaster Posted November 5, 2005 Posted November 5, 2005 I can't always open up my amps so I use a Keeley modded TS-9 or Fulltone OCD depending on my mood.
RobB Posted November 5, 2005 Posted November 5, 2005 OD/Booster: Xotic RCBooster-killer, transparent.Wah:Budda Budwha-nice 'gulp' and 'eeommp', true bypass.

hamerboy_ Posted November 5, 2005 Posted November 5, 2005 Here's some of my favorites. In the misc. dept. I've added my Guyatone WR2; it is to envelope filters what the ADA Flanger is to all other flangers. -Bobby

jwhitcomb3 Posted November 5, 2005 Posted November 5, 2005 Give me a two channel amp with good basic tone, add a compressor and I'm good to go. Nice to haves include reverb, delay and wah.Rotary speaker is my favorite modulation effect.-Jonathan
bobbymack Posted November 5, 2005 Posted November 5, 2005 Here's my current board, wah-less for the first time in memory. Haven't been using it much except for tonal colors, and the new GE-7 with Sniper mod takes care of that so... Timmy set to high gain for heavy OD, Comprossor for clean country styled stuff, DD5 with tap, Sniper GE-7 (a GREAT bang for the buck pedal), TC Chorus for the Floyd / spacey stuff, EB Vol, Tim OD last in chain set for clean boost... The Kingsley boost pedal came with my amp and is killer for lead boosts, punch chords, etc too. On the way to the PO to pick up my Zendrive, which will replace the Timmy for awhile at least....
Monacosis Posted November 5, 2005 Posted November 5, 2005 On the way to the PO to pick up my Zendrive, which will replace the Timmy for awhile at least.... Nice board! I would like to hear how the Zendrive compares with the Timmy. I love my ZD and I am thinking about ordering a Timmy.mike
MCChris Posted November 5, 2005 Posted November 5, 2005 Here's my ghetto board. I'm lovin' all these boxes:
hardheartedbill Posted November 5, 2005 Posted November 5, 2005 forgot to include my Boss PN-2 pan/trem pedal, a killer sounding piece!
wgarces Posted November 5, 2005 Posted November 5, 2005 Here's my ghetto board. I'm lovin' all these boxes: Am I the only one or does anyone else get dizzy looking at the pic of MCC's ghetto board? Must be the angle of the pic! Dude, were you hanging from the ceiling? Whatever you're smoking, I want! Hey MCC, are you sure that's your board and not this guy's?
MTM105 Posted November 6, 2005 Posted November 6, 2005 Tube Works Real Tube. Get one on ebay for $80.DigiTech Bad Monkey is a steal.Those two I implement in combination with Boss ME 50 multi-effects. I play all 3 at low volume. The two former effects have the gutsiest, bluesiest sound I have stumbled across.Aphex Exciter and BBE Sonic Maximizer are also a good combo investment to kick up quality of tone.
