Ah ok the clock noise and such, I’m with you. I just got my Stereo Clone Theory and I’m not getting a lot of noise. Like I would not say gee that’s noisy. I wouldn’t even think of it if it hadn’t been raised in online reviews and forums.

The thing I don’t like about it is the echoey sound it has. My Boss CH-1 is a similar sounding chorus but it’s not got that long fixed delay time. I didn’t like the Small Clone for the same reason. Looks like EHX chorus is not for me. On the other hand if you ignore the echeoy sound as part of the flavour then it’s got far too much depth that it sounds significantly out of tune unless you bring it well below the 12 o’clock point.

The jury is out on it, I really want to like it and I run the boss at full depth and mix, so that’s a sign of maybe needing more. I guess the Stereo Clone Theory is that MORE!!!!! :doh:

wow you need to relax, not everyone is perfect! i own about 30 EHX pedals and i dont have a single issue with any of mine! based on your rant, you dont sound very “professional” and if you dont like wasting your money like the rest of us, do extensive research before you go buying something you know nothing about, like read up on anything on the unit here in these forums, or watch half a dozen Youtube vids first!

this unit is a reissue of a classic pedal, and nothing was perfect back then, but thats also why a lot of people like older or reissue pedals, because weather there perfect or not, there unique and have character that sets them apart from the rest. the only significant change they made to the reissue was make it stereo.

im just saying you wouldn’t be here ranting if you did more homework for yourself before you buy, there’s nothing in life i buy without knowing its right for me, that how i dont wast my money.

and no i dont “suck up” to EHX i own many many pedals from many many makers. im just saying i do have plenty from EHX and i have no issues with the ones i have………..and for that matter then….yes i do love EHX, but not for any random reason, because they worked out well for me so far, im sorry for your bad experience. no i dont own the stereo clone theory myself, otherwise i may have the same issues, but you cant judge all of a company’s products one one bad item.

you say your a professional musician, what if sum one went to a performance, and you slipped on a chord, forgot a line, or sum thing went wrong that wasn’t in your own hands, like the sound man or lighting? would it be fare to judge and or boycott you on one single bad experience?

i understand your frustration, i just think boycotting a whole company because of one bad item is going a bit far, get over it, and sell it for your money back, there are plenty of people out there who will take it off your hands for a reasonable price. no you wont make all your money back, especially your shipping costs from the exchange, that was your own mistake for not looking into what you were getting into in the first place, and 2nd because he sed they were noisy units to begin with and you still exchanged for another one.

Ive had plenty of bad, or horrible pedal buys in the past, we learn from our mistakes and make sure it don’t happen again, at the most go online weather its here or harmony central or whatever and give the specific pedal a bad review for others, instead of posting multiple pages trying to bring the whole company down, that just sounds like a childish temper tantrum.

and it wont get anywhere, because even the die hard fans i found here can admit that EHX is not perfect at everything, and no one is, but what they have done right has helped shape music history for over 40 years, tell all the great musicians from history (a fraction of them listed here: https://www.ehx.com/about/artists) that they were wrong, and tell me they wouldn’t be the same without EHX, your ranting will only brighten peoples day with a chuckle.

im done, no one will hear from me on this subject again, despite any immature personal attacks.
but anyone els reading this agree? other than the person who posted the topic? let me know if im wrong im not stubborn like sum people, if not maybe it will enlighten our friend here.
