what's your favourite pedals and why?
« Reply #30 on: June 13, 2007, 02:31:16 PM »
they are all in my pedalboards, didn't bother with overdrive/distortion pedals since it can vary depends on your amps + if you have a good amp, u don't need one  :D

Analogman chorus <-quality quality quality, best service, nice sounding chorus, although sometmes i miss cheap sounding of boss ce-2

HBE phylocybe <-so unique, best sounding phaser imho, great colour too
 
MSD Silvermachine Mk2 <-by far the best modern wah pedal i've used, puts bad horsie to shame

Axess BS2 Buffer <-beats dos mos in my opinion (through marshall tsl), it's really worth trying out

quite interested getting tc electronic nova delay when it finally comes out though. also foxelectronic TZF flanger sounds awesome!!

Well, I'll only speak of my own pedals because they're the ones which I have experience with in a practical way:

1. Dunlop Crybaby From Hell: Amazingly versatile wah, built to last and sounds amazing.


have you got any good settings you could share?

My fav pedal is my Boss CS2 compressor I got for £25. I don't use it with my band or anything but it sounds great into clean or mildly driven amps.

I'll certainly try to remember - I have a gig tonight so all my stuff is at home anyway, I'll try to get a peek at the settings. I have it set for a really, really broad and wide sweep to really accentuate the wah effect. And ALWAYS with the boost function on, that little baby is so good.

Hullo, first post here, just ordered me some Mother's Milks t'other day for my Strat and noticed the forums :).  Anyways, my favourite pedal is my first generation MI Audio Tube Zone all the way from sunny Australia (their prices have about doubled since I bought mine ;)).  Covers more boost/overdrive/distortion territory than any OD pedal I've ever used and really works well with my JCM 800 (one of the earlish all valve vertical input single channel jobs).  Keep meaning to upgrade to the newer model with more knobs, maybe one day....

Dave Main is the guy behind D*A*M* pedals.  I had a Dragonfly and a limited edition (1/4) MXR/DAM Phase 100 a couple of years ago.

V847 that I will eventually mod a bit. I dont use any other effects, unless a tuner or eq in the fx loop for lead boost counts?

No not a pedaltone I got the amp, a Powertone II. I've got a HBE Power screamer with fat boost but it doesn't come anywhere near my amps gain. It's different sounding though so it may have a use. My Fav' pedal is the HBE Dos Mos, it's just pure class! 8)
