Thoreau – ‘simplify, simplify’… have the metal muff w/ boost, but can’t figure out how to attach it without having some annoying hum… no hum there right now- only when i bring in the MM… any help?
Are powering the pedals off a daisy chain? It can often cause unwanted noise. Try using a separate power supply for the Metal Muff.
Does the nano small stone use vintage and hard-to-come-by chips? Is not the nano cheaper compared to earlier big box versions? Then in that sense what dose the nano stand for? cheap,clone/knock-off of vintage versions.
AFAIK most of the rehoused Nano pedals are identical to the version that preceded them immediately. I had the chance to compare the previous and nano versions of the Holy Grail myself and there was no difference between the two. (A notable exception is the Nano Clone, which apparently is different from the Small Clone.)
i heard that… i found out that i had used to put wah like everywhere so i’m currently avoiding them too… the CAE is kinda pricey, but i bet it’s worth the money
Yeah, I mean it’s not in the same category as standard Cry Babies or Vox’s. You’re aiming higher when you splash out just under € 200 for a pedal like this one. And you do get your money’s worth with the CAE.
hey, cabomano, congrats on that CAE/MXR wah! is it “teh sex”?
nice board
It’s silky smooth and well voiced. I’m not using the built-in boost all that much but the two Fasels offer some useful versatility. I consciously avoided using a wah for a long time, I used to be a wah-wah junky and wanted to steer away from that. But when I heard the CAE wah on one of the PGS demo vids a couple of months back, I got the craving again and couldn’t resist.
Here’s the latest incarnation of my board. I stripped things down and made some key changes to the order of effects.
Here’s how the signal goes now:
guitar 1 & 2 -> EHX Switchblade -> Boss TU-2 -> MXR Super Comp -> CAE wah -> Keeley DS-1 -> Maxxon OD-808 -> MXR Micro Flanger -> EHX Stereo Memory Man w/ Hazarai -> CAE Boost -> amp
Seems to me that EHX have abandoned the forum and are focusing on the facebook thing. I mean, they’ve just started a contest without even bothering to put a link up here.
