Re: Let's see your PEDAL BOARD!
Yea, it's why I haven't bought any Chasebliss Pedals. I know I would get so hosed up, that I would just pick one nice setting and leave it there forever.
All the pedals...the jolly, candy-like pedals...

Re: Let's see your PEDAL BOARD!
The complexity has to be offset by presets or midi, or I don't want it. That's why I really like the Chase Bliss stuff. I can tweak forever, save it, and call it up anytime a want and have it synced to everything else without having to remember or think about anything really. It's initially complex, but it's very simple in the end.

Re: Let's see your PEDAL BOARD!
Yeah tru.dat
An all-CBA board isn't what I'd consider overly complex until you get into midi controllers, programming and parallel setups. That's where I tend to overthink things and the gear gets in my way. But part of their genius is they can be used simply in-series to spectacular results, with the potential for intricate triggering. I would be very pleased with a Warped Vinyl, Wombtone, Spectre, Tonal Recall time/mod fx section

Basically this though I don't use stereo so its a moot point really. Its really cool with all the expression control though. If it had any amount of modulation on the delay it would fucking tits tho.resincum wrote:I'm guessing it sums then splits? one of the dudes in No Sun utilized one awesomely.

Re: Let's see your PEDAL BOARD!
The thing I like about chase bliss pedals, after owning just one, is that you can make them simple or you can make them complex. The Gravitas is my trem and I use it very basically. Its small with tap tempo and that's what I needed to fill a hole in my board. I usually forget about the dip switches. But if I want to play with them they are there to mess with. Its the perfect blend of tech and functionality.rustywire wrote:Yeah tru.dat

I just got the Spectre for the second time. Can't wait to dive in with passive electronics! #bonercity

I move pedals a lot. So, for me, the Patchulator was a godsend. My biggest problem with it? Now, I need ANOTHER ONE!
