MUSE – Live at Reading festival 2011 – a fan-made proshot DVD

Anytime…It’s great pedal and best reverb there is (only the new Eventide Space gives me goosebumbs but anyway it’s just a big fat clunker compared to Cathedral) ! The Cathedral has got loads of features but it really doesn’t work as two pedals at once :worried: Definitely a great buy !

And as for delays – just try the Deluxe Memory Man before any other – then you can either settle with something less awesome (which I did and now I have a tough time selling it for a decent prize), get a different delay in features or get the DMM right away (which would have saved me a lot of money)…

Hi ! I have the cathedral as well as Deluxe Memory Man and Boy and the delay on Cathedral is good…I mean obviously it’s not an analog delay but it has also a filter and additional reverb option and the core sound is quite good…BUT the problem is that the Cathedral is a reverb with 7 modes and for example I’m using it heavily for that so I’m not using the delay mode often because I’m using other modes…There’s just too many features on the Cathedral ! But the delay itself is good especially if you’re new to delays so if you don’t mind using Cathedral only for delay on some songs then go ahead…Anyway go ahead – you can find out if you like delays and finally end up with 4 delay pedals as me (one is for sale though )…

Because the only thing missing on the cathedral is the ability to change modes via footswitch – I know there isn’t enough room on the pedal but still…there could be an external footswitch for that…

EDIT: Sorry, I didn’t read your post properly – no it’s not a reverb and delay simultaneously. The delay on reverb modes is just a space until the reverb comes. The delay mode is a proper delay but you can’t use reverb and delay mode simultaneously. On the delay mode you can have some reverb on the delayed notes but still – it’s not the same as running delay and reverb pedal separately… So either reverb or delay not both – but still it’s a greatest reverb pedal I know

WOW Great, there’s never enough delay pedals on the board…

The rest would be guys like The Edge…

If I can contribute to the Edge’s delay – it’s hard to do it. Firstly, you need to find out the exact delay time and voicing of the chords – how much modulation etc…Then bear in mind that he often uses 2 delays and also some modulation effects, octavers for shimmers (go in a separate amp) etc…

I would suggest an analog delay (like the Deluxe MM) and a digital with gazillion of features – I’d like to recommend SMMw/Hazarai but it doesn’t have a tap divide function and that can be a problem…So maybe the new Memory man with Tap tempo and Hazarai could do the trick…I have DMBoy, DMM and Vox Time Machine (I want to swap it for SMMwH) and it works great…

Then the only vital thing is to play the same rythmic patterns, mute strings correctly etc…I play Where the Streets Have No Name with my band occasionally for fun (I’d be only interested in MUSE cover band – the rest is just for fun). And it can be done easily – I’m using two delays and it works fine…The most difficult part is the beggining of the first verse I guess (muted parts), but that’s maybe because I’m not a big palm mutting fan and I also sing the song…

Are you sure it’s not because your settings…?
When you turn the feedback up (past 12 o’clock) you’ll get some volume increase but that’s because the reverb repeats just too many times (with fuzz box it’s almost like oscilation, long drone almost unbearable to listen to…)…So just check this…otherwise there shouldn’t be any volume increase…
