Bierrepc « Its good to know that being patient »
Published on 12/24/13 at 06:39Everything has already been said!
Pedal FULLY configurable.
With POD edit, you can control, effects, amps, as well as the surface of the bracket:
you can call a button to one or more effects, also the expression pedal that can be called on any button of any effect.
(I do not use it, but who wants to, it can really be awesome).
You can also have a pre-amp in the loop that will be piloted for the little it is noon.
UTILIZATION
I Pod for 1 year and a half - I did a lot of different configurations, and it is quite difficult to get something right now.
I used the headphones and a sound system, but it was not enough to edit something really correct.
Today, I turned to a pair of Adam A5x + 22VSL a presonus, which allows me to edit something more serious and I arrive at least grind the amp simulations.
The manual ... I have open at one time or another, but ... once you're on the PC, you can configure everything just enough.
SOUND QUALITY
Guitar:
I play on a RAN 7 strings, I was a bit mixed on the sound, but I realized that it is because microphones too straight (EMG 81 and 85 require) - change to predict.
When you leave a guitar with more singing microphones, it will alone, really good pedal.
I also bought a VOX ToneLab ST - To have stood there a few days ago, I found much richer dynamics (? Presence lamp) on the other hand, although it is immediately a good sound ... I fucking shit myself!
Short! All amps are not magical with all guitars, but you can always find a good sound.
Fender are quite interresting for clean, the same way as the Hiwatt and Soldano.
The Crunches are not bad either.
The only "catch" remains for distortion - Notice to fans of Marshall JCM800 - take solo overdrive that provides more gain and a better control programming channel.
Low:
Not so satisfied.
I have a 4 and 1 June rope.
I am actually quite pleased with Ampeg, so that the drive not spin too: 15/20% after it goes into a really usable overdrive. They could not have put us SVT??
The Reverb and Delay are pretty good, some distos to troubleshoot and many other effects for guitar fans ways or pink floyd dream theater.
OVERALL OPINION
So yes, it certainly is not a FX axis, but it's good, it's 5x cheaper and is in almost all music stores.
For someone who wants to spend time to shape the sound is nikel, for others, you take a preamp or analog pedal simpler beast.
It is a tool that is made to be plugged into a PA or monitoring system, so do not plug it into a skyscraper amp for the preamp can there not be deactivated.
Goodies:
The versatility of effects, settings of all kinds, routings,
The effects are not bad
A satisfactory number of amp to find just about happiness.
Cons:
Too many pedals kill the pedals,
Not enough amps and still some gaps in the simulation,
One loop effect, it would benefit so we can have a genuine Swiss Army knife.
Bass amps not at all convincing and too little: Ampeg and Fender Studio ...
The product is not perfect, but it is not the most ridiculous compete.
However, it should well take your time and have something to make it sound very neutral to configure everything well.
So I put him a score of 8 - I hope that the successor of HD and HD-X will give me full satisafaction.
