Re: your effects setup?
my experience with analog delay is pretty limited so it's hard to give it a just assessment. I prefer it over the carbon copy by far, I find it more reverby/smudgey compared to the EHX Deluxe Memory Boy but the mod on the RN is the best mod i've ever played. I've considered selling it and trying a supa puss but will probably just try harder, give it more time. remembering i prefer digital delay so much more. x)
also considering trying everything after my vol/wah in the effects loop, saw a video that showed the mt-2 in the effects loop and it sounded so different, better? maybe, but shall have to wait until next rehearsals. newest pedal is the super spring theory reverb and that is a reverb game ender pedal right there, wow.

Re: your effects setup?
From what I can tell, that's pretty much the way everything from Subdecay is. I don't see them on tons of boards, but once they're there, they seem to not move...soggy mittens wrote: ↑Tue Aug 28, 2018 7:46 pmnewest pedal is the super spring theory reverb and that is a reverb game ender pedal right there, wow.

Re: your effects setup?
Considering getting a new board, but really happy with this set-up
Guitar>Tuner>80s Rat>Subdecay Liquid Sunshine>Moog MF-102>Boss RE-20>Digitech Polara>EH 720 looper>amps
There's also my Tremolux's tremolo switch + the expression pedal on the left for the MF-102 (usually to control frequency) and the one on the right to control the rate of the RE-20

Re: your effects setup?
Funny thing about that pedal, I traded a Boss DD-6 for it. I found a guy on Craigslist out there looking for that and wanted to trade for the Experience.
I didn’t use it forever cos I jus didn’t really use fuzz that much. Obviously my tastes have changed a bit.
The octave pushing the Lucifer is unreal. Octave all over the neck and really useable if you turn down too.

Re: your effects setup?
So a few months back I was embroiled in a manic quest for a board-mounted reverb pedal to finally replace the ungainly (and becoming unreliable) Midiverb II I had perched atop ofamp for years--I went through probably ten pedals in the matter of months, Strymons, Eventide, Boss, etc, etc, obsessing over specs and reviews, only to be unsatisfied each and every time and subsequently taking a slight loss each time I flipped a pedal for the next one. I finally settled on a Boss RV-500 (fantastic pedal for anyone looking for an end-all, be-all reverb btw) for a while, but found myself seemingly spending more time editing patches and tweaking minutiae than playing...it was a depressing realization, thinking about all the time and money I'd spent consuming myself in the pedalsphere, chasing some vague sound I had in my head that seemed to become ever more elusive the more I invested in trying to capture it with effects.
{Warning, blooz lawyer content ahead:} Thinking back in part to some excellent ruminations on pedal minimalism in the past from Mijmog, StevenO, and other forumites, I decided I needed a break from pedals entirely, and played more or less plugged straight into my tape echo and amp for the last two months or so. What a liberating experience that was...I found myself playing more creatively, getting as wide a variety of sounds with the amp's onboard trem/verb and my volume knob interacting with the tape echo's preamp as I was with the whole kit and caboodle of my pedalboard, and most importantly, I was deriving more enjoyment from just playing than I had in years. In something of a fit, and with some school bills looming on the horizon, I sold off nearly all of my pedals, the couple rack units I owned, and my second amp and pared things down to this:
I'll occasionally stick a fuzz face and/or a wah in front of this little board, but 95% of the time, this setup going into my Klemt Echolette (or currently while the tape echo is awaiting new glass, a Deluxe Memory Man) covers any sound I want to make. The Carlin compressor adds welcome low and and ringing, sustaining compression, and the distortion knob yields a surprisingly nice light overdrive; the Broadcast covers everything from neutral clean boost, to snarly treble booster sizzle, to raunchy overdrive, to sputtery fuzz mayhem, and the MXR M300 can cop a decent enough impression of most of my preferred Midiverb settings, with truly spectacular plate and modulated reverb modes. I won't delude myself into believing I'll never go down a pedal rabbithole again (already thinking about big fuzz pedals to stick in front ), but it's nice to remind myself that this is more than I'll ever need.
Sorry for the ramble--I know there have been plenty of threads on simplifying/paring down in the past, but man is it a good feeling!

Re: your effects setup?
Nice! Absolutely less is more! I'm really kind of over the huge board thing. I got really deep into soulful players like Reggie Young, Bobby Womack, Jimmie Johnson, Eddie Hinton, Steve Cropper, Ry Cooder, Smokey Hormel, and Blake Mills, just to name a few, and really learned a lot from how they were/are able to weave interesting guitar parts into songs without using or relying on a pedals to bring out their creativity. It's made me a better and more musical player for sure. Glad it's been working for you as well
