« As reverbs! »
Published on 03/27/12 at 11:02What are the effects, or types of effects available?
reverbs galore
Are they edited? Via an editor for Mac / PC?
location "Toneprint" is editable via USB on a computer or directly from a smartphone, after downloading the ad hoc application
Is it a rack or rack-mount model?
no, it's a simple pedal effects
What technology is used? (Analog, digital, tube ...)
given the number of reverbs available, I would bet on the digital
What is the connection? (Audio / MIDI)
2 in / 2 out (stereo would have it), the socket-type boss (center negative, classical), and mini-USB plug to be able to update the firmware and to change the edit toneprint
UTILIZATION
The general configuration is simple? / The sound editing and effects is easy?
there are three knobs, a 11-position rotary switch and a mini, not to mention the inevitable footswitch.
First, choose the type of reverb you want from the 11 position rotary switch:
- Room that simulates a "regular size"
- Hall that simulates a large room
- Which simulates a spring reverb springs
- Platform that simulates a plate reverb
- Church, which simulates a church
- Mod that adds modulation of the reverb
- Lofi as the name implies, dirty sound
- Tile simulates a very very small room reverberation
- Amb which "emulates the feeling of space" according to the manual
- Adding a gate door of her (hence the name) to cut the end of reverb
- Toneprint which loads a set from a choice of settings available on the TC Web site (for free, and can be changed as often as you want, and always free)
Then set using the corresponding knobs DECAY (the length of reverb) and TONE (tone of the reverb).
Then assayed the level of the effect using the FX LEVEL knob (100% dry to full left, 50/50 dry / wet bottom right but it depends on dip switch that I discovered tonight).
The mini switch lets you choose between a PRE-DELAY long or short, thus leaving the original signal spend a little before the processed signal from becoming an add.
Finally both dip switch (stashed in the warmth of the pedal) allows for one to choose if the pedal is "True Bypass" or "buffered bypass" and, for another, if the pedal is "buffered bypass ", you can mute the Dry signal on the output of the pedal. This must be used according to the manual, when the pedal is plugged into an effects loop in parallel.
The manual is clear and sufficient? ...
I did that traveled diagonally, I will abstain from judging
SOUND QUALITY
The effects are they effective, responsive and realistic enough?
The effects are just great, simple enough to adjust, and they sound superb!
Which instruments do you use?
I use it with my guitar
Which ones do you prefer, you hate?
for group play, I love the reverb Amb. It's hard to describe, but I would say we do not realize that she is engaged until the cut: it provides a "little extra" to the sound. The Spring Room and are also very nice. There are none that I hate, but only that I am using very little, Lofi and Tile in mind.
An important advantage of this pedal is its location Toneprint: it can load on the fly (using a smartphone) reverb, based on models of the pedal, but whose parameters "hidden" have been adjusted by big names in music.
OVERALL OPINION
How long you use it?
I use this pedal for about 8 months.
Did you tried many other models before buying it?
No.
What is so special that you love the most, least?
Most: toneprint
The least: there is a site toneprint
How would you rate the quality / price?
pretty good, although I do not have too many bases for comparison
With experience, you do again this choice? ...
YES!
