    Default rp100

    So I am using the AC adapter from my whammy to power this little piece of tone sucking failure. However, it is so much fun and there are so many different tones in it. haha. I'm glad I found it, but I doubt I'll be using it on any recordings. haha Anyone else have one?

    Had the RP3. Used it once, hated it, and realized that 50% of my tone was gone. Sold it on eBay for about $85.

    No true-bypass = fail. Never buying a non true bypass pedal again.


    but in other pedal news, I recently played a Fulltone OCD and Fulltone Fulldrive 2 MOSFET, and I certainly like the Fulldrive 2 better. It is such an amazing overdrive, soo much better than any tube screamers I've ever played. I'm looking into getting one very very soon, or maybe a real tube overdrive like an Epicenter Valveboy, but those are too expensive for me without me trying it. I'm glad I was able to play the Fulltones as well, the OCD wasn't what I expected.

    Also, I sold my Boss DD-7 and got a EHX Stereo Memory Man. I love the analog delay, I don't think I'll ever go back to a digital delay The Memory Man is great, but the delay time is not long enough, and it's not as transparent as I'd like the analog delay to be. I might see if I can get a Deluxe Memory Man, since the Chorus and Vibrato on it are a plus. The chorus on the Stereo Memory Man is really funky, it pitch shifts your tones down as the chorus is on... very strange. I'd prefer a normal chorus effect.

    What? No dl4? haha. I hear the dl4 are sick. I was kind of throwing the idea of getting that or a giga-delay, but I have to buy all my fracking recording gear first... haha

    I need a tremolo pedal and I REALLY want a new distortion pedal. I use my amp's pre amp section normally, but I can't switch it on and off with no pedal. I have the Visual Sound Jeckyll and Hyde OD and Distortion, but I dunno. It is so muddy. What do you think about the Pro Co Rat? I know the guy from thrice uses one..

    I'm not a big fan of Line 6 stuff honestly... The DD-20 is good, but I still prefer a straight analog delay pedal.

    I see the Proco RAT on sale a lot on Harmony Central. The newer models suck I've heard, and only the vintage ones are worth it. I was thinking about trying one when I went to the music shop the other day. I see them used for about $50 or so, and $100 for the modded one. I think I see the RAT 2, but I don't know the difference.

    For a OD, I would seriously recommend the Fulltone Fulldrive 2 MOSFET. You can get a blem model straight from Fulltone for $125 + shipping. Not too bad.

    Well I like being able to do all the crazy weird delay stuff. I have the marshall echohead right now and it's just a straight delay pedal.
