Mr.GrimMember
you should be able to use the screws from this box, there the same ones EH uses.
Mr.GrimMemberdont give up yet, i know they have a euro version of the adapter for you, i think Ron or sum one els can find the info, i just dont have the info myself.
Mr.GrimMemberas far as i know EH will not send or sell the screws for the pedals, they only get 4 for each enclosure they buy to make each pedal, but you could buy a whole new enclosure, they cost under $6.
Mr.GrimMemberif its under warranty, just get it fixed professionally, but if not, it should be an easy fix, just open it up, look at the switch and get an exact replacement, and copy the wires onto the new one.
im 99% sure its just the switch itself thats the problem.
Mr.GrimMemberthats what i was trying to say….lol
Mr.GrimMemberit sure wont look original, but you can try using large washers or sum type of plates and sandwich them around the hole (one in one outside) and have the switch going threw them to get it to fit in the hole, so it will at least work for you.
Mr.GrimMemberthe only way you can connect these two amp together, is if your saldano has a pre amp output, then send that into the 22 as the power amp, but thats probly backward from what yu wanted, you probly wanted the power from the saldano. but its not possable if you plug the speaker output of one or the other into the input of one or the other, you will fry the second amp. highly unrecommended!
Mr.GrimMemberreverb needs to be after distortion most of the time, so it would work if you were using a pedal for your distortion/OD before the reverb pedal, but because your using the amps drive channel, you should place the reverb in your amps effect loop.
think of it like this, you want to reverberate your drive signal, not drive/distort your reverb.
you end up distorting all those reverb trailing ends, that end up sounding like a mosh of crap. in some cases (but not yours obviously) it sounds ok to sum people and they want it to sound that way.it may also help if you think of the reverb as a short delay, when drive is first you are echoing the notes your playing with drive, end of story. but if you place reverb/delay first your driving/distorting every echo after the first, so each extra echo gets two, three, four, times the distortion added or doubled up on the signal with each echo.
Mr.GrimMemberthats what i was thinking.
Mr.GrimMemberi am also aware of all these behringer clones, and dipped my foot in the water with the “Vintage Tube Overdrive” do to the fact that im currently on a tube pedal kick.
first off does anyone know what this is supposed to be a clone of? im not thinking its a EH based clone.
and second, my opinion of the pedal physically, well i think it is ridicules honestly, there choice of the way it was built and components just dont make scents to me. first thing i do with a new pedal before i even plug it in, is open it up to see what im working with. well the enclosure seems fine, its heavy duty bent steel, but i dont understand there choice of pots and switches, the pots are surface mount to the board 2 inches away from the top of the pedal, and the knobs themselves have a almost a 2 inch shaft that extends down into the unit to connect to the pots. and the footswitch really bugs me, it is made to look like your basic mechanical switch on the outside but, its a tactile switch (like Boss or DOD) 2 inches into the pedal being pushed with a pole that on the outside only looks like a normal switch. i really dont get that, i would think it would be cheaper and easier to just use a normal switch like EH ect. so if anything ever broke on these pedals , good luck fixing it! (at least to original state, it can be modded)
and i honestly cant comment on the sound just yet, although i got it used but in new condition with box, power ac, manual, ect…, it came with a bad tube, so it currently sounds like shit, i will update when i get a replacement. i have seen vids that show this pedal being used with different tubes and it makes a huge difference.
Mr.GrimMemberreally? i have poor eye sight, and have no issues with the white
on black, i think it works well.June 24, 2010 at 9:33 pm in reply to: New Devices: Germanium^4 Big Muff &, .44 Magnum, Freeze, Neo Clone, & Headphone Amp #109795Mr.GrimMemberit is nice to see that they (EHX) listen to us here on the forums! as it looks like all the new pedals that came out were projects suggested and requested a number of times here in the forum!
Mr.GrimMember^^thats his subtle way of saying, look right on the pedal, its shown at the top.
Mr.GrimMembernot sure on this pedal specifically, because i don’t have experience with it, but with other pedals with a similar light, it just means that you have a high level signal being fed into the pedal itself, it really don’t mean much, if everything sounds fine to you, i wouldn’t worrie about it, nothing should go wrong, unless your feeding a power amp type thing into it, then you could break the pedal.
and i may be wrong, but i could swear that i seen Howard Davis (EHX designer) comment on the same issue with the poly chorus, and sed you can just ignore it, it don’t really mean much.
Mr.GrimMembernano clone is another pedal i have herd sum people had issues with, but again i never had an issue, so again i guess its another “try it out and see” situation.
and i cant comment on the “Muff” od, because i don’t currently have one or tried it in a chain, but if its anything like the Double Muff, Ive used that in a chain with no issues.
but if you were referring to his “Big Muff”, i don’t have one right now, but i do use a Little Big Muff Pi with the chain with no issues.
