^^ yes i agree with this chain completely!

i place my phaser (V1 small stone) right after my dirt pedals (OD distortion ect) and it sounds awsome, but thats all personal preference..

to clean up my signal chain, i use a BBE Sonic Stomp at the end of my chain, i must say ill never play without one agean, and you can get them at a fare price, i got mine used on Ebay for about $40.

i also use a tube Black finger compressor (on always) at the beginning of my chain, it really helps drive the signal, it has a lot of power/gain of its own!! even if you set the compression low, its like a preamp.

i have and use the m-audio ep-1 i think its called, i admit i didn’t want it at first because its plastic, but it is actualy very sturdy! and its cheap and works with everything that i can find (definitely anything EHX, they actualy include it with sum of there larger models)

it has a pot on the side to adjust the range, and a switch on the bottom to turn it into a different type to work with other pedals.

i also use a couple of different personal made expression pedals.

i haven’t found much use for the expression on the other modes, just the wah setting really, it works well with it, but otherwise like i sed the phaser, vib, and trem, modes i dont realy use it for that.

it is against site policy to sell things threw this forum, the only thing they will allow, is a link to an ebay auction, or sum thing like that, you cant sell directly threw here or ask for offers.

EHX does not want to be held responsible for a bad deal or get a bad rap from one.

of the list you gave us, i would go for the English Muff’in!

^so do you, we deff need to keep in touch, but unfortunately at this time i do not have a site, im lazy internet wise, and im horrible at and hate HTML!….lol

i definitely need to get sum thing going at sum point, i usually just sell my stuff on Ebay for now, here is a link to my facebook page, there is a couple pics of projects i built on there, i have many more i need to post pics of on there, and my pedal board and guitars i built.

^^^ true astrozombie, and i agree with everyone on the quality of his vids, but unfortunately hes the only one do as many comparison vids as he does, despite weather they could be better or not, plus im sure he has limited funds as most of us, he gets requests to do different pedal demos all the time, so hes always buying new pedals, and probably hasn’t got around to saving enuf money for another amp and guitar, i keep doing the same thing myself dammit!

wow i guess great minds think alike!

below i will attach a pic of my version, its essentially the same thing but i also have a toggle switch to turn from footswitch/knob control, to optical expression control.

also the internal trim idea is not bad but i just used small knobs on the back of the pedal instead, that way i can still adjust on the fly if i want, but there out of the way.

ive been recently calling mine “the Worm Tail” because i use it with the newer EH Worm pedal. i use the optical setting to turn the work into a manual wah, and the footswitch/knob option (same as you) i also use in the wah setting but that way i can select threw three different filtered tones, it works great for that, i hear a lot of people wanting a more flexible filter matrix type thing, its a very cheap substitute!

it also works nice on the phaser setting, i can select different ranges on the go.

i always wondered how this thing would work out for other pedals!, i love your vid of it with the Holy Stain, i didn’t know it had a pitch option!

side note, i checked out your I Heart blog site, nice stuff, ill have to check out sum of your bands material sum time, and i can wait to see your secret guitar project!

speaking of your world location, do you or anyone els in this forum watch “Burnistoun”? im in the US and its hard for me to find (mostly youtube vids, cant wait for a DVD!). i F’n love that show great stuff!! i been watching a lot of Scottish comedy shows lately! (yes i know your from Ireland, not Scotland, but i thought you still may have seen it)
