I usually keep it simple when I am focusing on actual practice......

just a re-jigg for now. testing the bypass of this line 6 pedal i found in the pedal drawer

Is that the Roto Machine? Well done - can you ramp up the speed by pressing the footswitch? Assuming so, since the Tap trem I used to have performed similar feats.

yes it is the roto machine and you can ramp up and down like the tap trem.
sounds very very good. i find most leslie sims don't do the slow speed sound very well. this seems to do it quite well. works well with the OCD for those driven leslie sounds. though it's onboard drive ain't that bad. i'm guessing it's similar to the models in the M9/13 and MM4.

The fashionista in me wants to attack that line 6 module with a can of white spraypaint.

the purista in me wants to attack it with another one taped to a sledgehammer handle.

I've been slippin' and a slidin', and wondering which way to go - Line 6 (good, tap tempo, expensive-ish) or Behringer again (almost as good, annoying 2-sec delay in changing mode, cheap). What's the best deal you found on the Line 6?

i got that one i'd seen local for Â£40 new. been in the shop ages, so the rubber has discoloured a little. the speed change is great, though i'd like to be able to mix the dry signal in with it. there's quite a change in tone with it on, which is the whole idea, but when you turn it off you can tell it's off.

You got a great deal. They seem to have gone unavailable, Dolphin/DV247/Rocking Rooster are all saying they're no longer available.

i was speaking to some of those suppliers on your list about a few other things and there were saying that they are waiting for a huge shipment of stuff from China from a number of manufacturers at the end of this month (Behringer was one of them).

do you have any of those line 6 pedals, nick. i could send you the module to try out. less on postage then.

Stop taunting me by offering to send me something I can't buy! Yes, I have the Space Chorus (though I find the Boss chorus easier to gig). I'm just looking at the Roto-machines on eBay now...

i'm happy for you to borrow it. i'm not gigging at the mo and it's not mega integral for practice.

I've been gassing for reverb recently. It's probably the one think I miss from my old amp. Since i've been running my amp clean and using the OCD for all drive duties, I may pick a verb pedal up cheap. I'd prefer reverb over delay, delay is more for effect to me, whilst verb adds a nice bit of ambience to everything.

Are you still not into the idea of an M9 or 13?

Haze · Post by **Haze** » Sun Mar 27, 2011 12:48 pm

Probably wait for the m5. I use a room reverb from my m13 when recording to liven things up.

Progrockabuse · Post by **Progrockabuse** » Sun Mar 27, 2011 1:11 pm

That's what I'm thinking. M5 would be just the thing for use as a reverb and "wildcard" effects unit. Probably works out cheaper than buy said effect new individually.
