Congrats! I’d love to know how it compares in tone and features to the new Voice Box.
Fender&EHX4everModeratorQuote:Now, where’s the solar pedals?Yeah, the LPB-0 !
Or the Sol Preacher !
Actually, a solar powered power-strip with a rechargeable battery would be awesome for powering a pedal board!!!!
The amp is the killer :doh:
Fender&EHX4everModeratorLOL
There’s just no pleasing everyone, is there?
Fender&EHX4everModeratorQuote:Is it possible to buy any of the magic SAD1024 delay ICs today?I see them come up on eBay periodically using this search: reticon (bbd, analog, sad1024, “sad 1024”)
They typically run about $30 +/- , but once in awhile some joker will ask an outrageous price, like $100. You could almost buy a vintage Electric Mistress or Deluxe Memory Man for that price.
Fender&EHX4everModeratorThe Stereo Polyphase does have a lot of features. It’s not my favorite EHX phaser though.
If you can find one of these, go for it: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&item=280331410466
I really love the phasing on The Worm and The Flanger Hoax as well.

Fender&EHX4everModeratorQuote:Are these chips inferior to the old ones? Or are they the same?The same. Only the oldest, 4 knob blue face DMMs have the Reticon SAD1024 BBDs, which are notoriously lofi and noisy (although, cool in their own way).
Fender&EHX4everModeratorQuote:Quote:Thanks!Well, anyway it seems the GeOD works OK with Wahs and Compressors before it, right? It doesn’t have the impedance issues as the Double Muff and other fuzz pedals, does it?
Help me please GeOD owners!
I haven’t noticed any issues, but then the GeOD isn’t really a pedal I would use for dirt in conjunction with a wah. Maybe as a boost. Also, I prefer compression after the GeOD if I use compression with it at all. It gives it more crunch, somehow, though less attack.
I feel like without compression the GeOD works best when pushing the tubes in your amp.Fender&EHX4everModeratorQuote:I didn’t think any of the trim pots had to do with the chorus/vibrato sound?
I thought they dealt with the delay time/ feedback/ and volume?I mean I really have no idea, I’m just throwing that out there.

I don’t really know either, but if I were trying to save a few $s instead of sending it to an expert, that would probably be the first thing I’d try. Just be sure to mark the current setting in case it was irrelevant.
Fender&EHX4everModeratorQuote:Right now I have mine pre-distortion.Me too. 90% of the time I prefer to place dirt after pitch shifters because the tracking of the pitch shifter is often affected by an effects used before it.
Fender&EHX4everModeratorPour moi:
Zvex Fuzz Factory ( Fuzz!) – EH Micro POG – Zvex Box of metal ( distortion ) – Wah wah – EH Micro synthesizer – MXR Carbon copy (analog delay) – EH Holy Grail Plus –
The Zvex prefers to be premiere
Fender&EHX4everModeratorQuote:Thanks, Ron. Of course, the Hotfoot. So now the list reads as follows:1) Crying Tone
2) Volume Pedal
3) Muff Fuzz Crying Tone
4) Talking Pedal
5) Hotfoot
6) Pan PedalAll share the same housing and treadle. Does a series of re-issues of these pedals make economic, and musical, sense? I certainly think so.
Don’t forget the treadle versions of the Bad Stone and the Octave Multiplexer :thumb:
See here: http://www.bostonguitar.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=CTGY&Store_Code=BGWI&Category_Code=VE-EHI would love to have the whole series. I currently have the Volume Pedal, the HotFoot, the Crying Tone, and the Muff Fuzz Crying Tone. I would get the Talking Pedal if it weren’t so outrageously pricey on eBay.
Fender&EHX4everModeratorQuote:thanks,
which one? and how do you mean?
–ed4 out of 5 of them are set around 50% (keyhole horizontal). 1 is not (keyhole vertical). That one might need some realigning.
Fender&EHX4everModeratorOne of the trimpots looks potentially out of alignment.
