And so do I

Got one off Santa Claus!

I like it already. It can make some weird old sounds – especially using the filter matrix. I wouldn’t say ‘classic tones’ but great if you are into experimentation. Haven’t had a chance to fully get to grips with it yet, but it’s a thumbs up from me so far.

so i tried it the day before yesterday and i wasn’t really impressed. The flanger is like “meh”… except the full depth settings, that’s hella cool. I was really pissed about the Rate not really working with flanger before 12 o’clock…

the big surprise for me was the chorus. I don’t like chorus, but the chorus on the SEM is really great! It really got me…. with my tele it’s like instant Message in the bottle

i kinda liked it with SMMH, but not really with distortion after or fuzz before it.

verdict: no, thank you… that pedal is not for me

that’s because below 12 o’clock is the “filter-matrix” mode…you can manually sweep through the flange range to find a setting that tickles you and freeze it there. above 12 is when it sweeps back and forth on its own.

i think it’s a great swirly little box, and it’s psychedelic lushness is enough to make my drummer tell me to turn it off.

I just went into a music store and tried the SEM for fun and my wife and I both fell in love with it.I actually tried it with a nano clone and I must say that I preferred the chorus setting on the SEM.I found it much more subtle and warm.And the Flanger is great.I’m a singer/songwriter who plays Reggae,Funk,Blues and Rock and this pedal the right amount of dynamics with out being over bearing.It can add the right amount of color to your rhythm and even spice up your leads.And you can be there all day just finding cool ways to mix them.If you are looking for an Avant-garde effect look elsewhere.If you want add some character to your music this is right up your alley.I say Two Thumbs up to the Stereo Electric Mistress XO.
