What do you think about my board?

[milkwasabadchoice]

Hey guys here is my pedal board. It is missing my phaser. Still waiting on a replay about power supplies. Let me know what you think.

Nice man! I really like those red pedals!!!!

[Marcos - Munky]

I liked them too. Give their names .

[milkwasabadchoice]

Ya Im gonna have to. By the way the pedals are a/b box; tube screamer clone(I LOVE THIS PEDAL!!!!!); orange squeezer; volume pedal; crybaby wah; and the obveious Line 6 DL4 (never ceases to amaze me!). So thats those can anybody guess what the big brown box is on th right? I bet not.

Anybody know?

[Greybeard]

I'm wrong but it looks like an old tape deck :lol:

I'm not sure what that box is. My first thought, though, was a Roland Space Echo thing (tape-based I believe). I've wanted to try one for a while.

With a foot controller?

Is it a "Board Hog"?

Visually a bit clunky, my guess is that it must sound very good.

[milkwasabadchoice]

Rodgre you guessed it. It is a very old Sansuni recording reverb unit. It is a board hog, yes, but it sounds good and adds a lot of warmth and sounds good with the DL4. There is no foot control. I am gonna have to build a bypass pedal because it has no way to turn it off with your foot. It has a bypass but its noisy and on the side. The best part it was given to me. Sombody thought it was junk. Riiiiiiight junk!

[loki]

don't you have trouble accessing the wah and vol pedal with your foot and rocking them since they're so far and high? i put mine as near to my feet as i could.... or maybe you're just tall  :wink:

[milkwasabadchoice]

to be honest i havent giged it enough yet to give a answer. the few times I've messed around with it its not that bad im 6 feet tall. I do know that the tap button on the DL$ is hard to hit the volume is in the way. and Im thinking about dropping the reverb for a littel while. Gotta get the main stuff hum free and dialed in perfect then start playin with toys.  :wink:

anyone have any thoughts on ways to use the DL4 what do you use it for the most?

[Peter Snow]

The Sansui is an interesting unit.  If you take it apart you will probably find the spring unit is actually two springs connected in a "V" configuration.  A single transducer drives both springs at the joint of the V and two pickup transducers situated at the end of each arm of the V provide a true stereo reverb output; mono in, stereo out - neat.  

If there is a wet only output (I don't know how you have it hooked up) try putting a tremolo unit right after the reverb to get a pseudo echo effect.

you need a bigger pedalboard! more noisemakers!

i should post a pic of mine sometime... holds about 10 pedals per level...  :lol:

in fact, someone recently commented on it, by saying that he used to use effects, but lost use of them once he got better. Smartass response: "yeah, i would, but i *just* can't nail that jetplane sound without my flanger yet... got any advice?"
