^ Thanks for this! I was trying to come up with a bell sound the other day when I happened across yet another one of your amazing videos.
Another great video!You just convinced me to buy another pedal!
But What about the clock bells? You didn’t give any information about them. Also if you do a reverse of a reverse, like in your “voices from the other side”, does it play the sound forward?

Jack the guitar I use on a daily basis in an old Ibanez JEM guitar.
It about 22 years old now and just sounds and plays great in any style.I have been a studio musician for many years now and for me the best way to get great sound is by going direct.
I am called to get every sound imaginable and to get them very,very fast.
Going direct and using amp sims is the most consistent way for me to get a great repeatable sound.
Use an amp with a mic is great but the sound changes from room to room, mic to mic, engineer to engineer ect.
I have a great set of Genelec monitors here in my studio and when I create a sound here direct, I know I can plug into any studio anywhere and get the same sound.
Many less variables and more control.
Going direct also give you the ability to have a greater high end response which helps in the more synthy sounds.For the EHX things I have done its all been direct with ether no amp sims or a very clean Fender Twin amp simulator found in the Roland/Boss units.
You can hear the clean amp sim at the beginning of the reveb show.For me in a live situation I would use one of the amps built for simulators or keyboards or a very clean guitar amp with a good top end responce.

Thanks for the reply! I will definitely try recording direct. You mentioned amps built for simulators or keyboards and an amp with a good top end. Is there specific ones that you would recommend?
I was actually planning on purchasing a Fender 65′ Reissue Twin Reverb. What do you think? (and if there is a better place to post such question please inform me and I will move this; I don’t want to highjack this thread)
I was wondering… What guitar are you using? It’s got a very unique design.
And why do you record direct (versus through an amp). Does it help when creating the sounds, not having the amp get in the way? Do you ever play direct live? And What kind of D.I. would you recommend for recording?
A lot of question I know, sorry… I’ve become a fan
