Thumbs up for the Power Corruption and Lies shirt.
DS1 is one of my go to effects for synths.
if you dont include the zoom ms70cdr multi-effects pedal, you need to look around at the world more. that is a standard synth pedal for
Yes, if you don't use the presets that come with this Zoom pedal and create your own, this is the best pedal for synths with not being limited to specific effects. Not only is there delay, reverb and chorus, there are compressors, graphic EQ and more. I own three today in the aux loops of my mixer.
@@WildernessMusic_GentleSerene awesome. another youtuber waveformer also has 3 of them and he is really good with the delay times. my favorite patch is to put a big chorus after several delays for a giant shimmer effect.
I got rid of my ms70 cause it ran out of headroom and CPU too easily. It was heaps better after I flashed the firmware to take ms50g distortion patches but quickly became unusable due to those weaknesses after the novelty wore off.
@@neilsheldrick8158 Yes, there are limits to this little $150 pedal. There isn't another pedal on the market for this price that you can create incredible chorus/reverb/delays all in the same pedal. If you're trying to place 5 or 6 devices in series there will be processor management. If you're using some of the highest processor intensive devices on this pedal, you may be limited to 3 in series. I have reached these limits only when using devices other than the reverb, delay and chorus.
For what it can do its an awesome pedal, I got one too and use it with both my synths and guitars.
That said, I'm pretty sure that, while the MS70CDR does alot of effects, it doesnt sound as lush as some more expensive pedals do.
I dont care about that at all, especially because of effects like reverse reverb, which in pedal form is not only hard to find but also expensive.
There is a difference, but not a great enough difference to buy a ton of more expensive pedals for
This is fantastic!!!
I love the Carbon Copy
Very helpful. Cheers! 🤖🤖
love this content!
Thank you Mr. Chris Cline for this wonderful video. ⚜️x🤘🏻x⚜️
You're more thank welcome! They're are more on the way!
If memory serves, that Phase 90 is Tony Banks' secret weapon to get his swirling organ sounds on songs like "Afterglow".
🤘
I'll look into this! Early Genesis (Gabriel) albums are my favorites in the prog universe.
@@midichlorian73 1977… not quite Gabriel era, but it has that vibe. They brought “Afterglow” back for this final tour. ❤️
great video thanks for this. As a novice this is a gold learning resource for me. Liked and subbed. Oh I already was subbed, liked then !
Glad you gleaned useful info from the video! We will take deeper dives in the future so please stay tuned!
Nice demos. Question: could you let us (consequently) hear the dry signal first and indicate where the wet signal starts?
In most instances there are 2 bars of dry signal.
@@midichlorian73 👍
The Behringer Echo Machine is great, that is probably why Behringer discontinued it.... XD....but really, it is the best clone pedal they ever made, shame it is not still in production.
Maybe TC Electronic has a varriant? I think TC is rereleasing behringer pedals but with a better housing
You're very knowledgable, and you're sharing much of your knowledge, and it's appreciated. But... even if a guy had the same exact synth laying around, tuning it to just the same would be nearlt impossible. If you would have only thrown a bit of the dry signal into each segment for comparison, this would have been so much better.
You should do an all orange pedal video
The tremolo pedal is redundant for most synths since the mod wheel can usually control the amount of LFO that goes to the VCA.
As do most other effects
Yeah but you can tremolo on the end of the external effects chain which is totally different
The DS-1 is a noisy pedal, MXR Distortion Plus and OCD are better options. D+ for drum machines especially and the OCD for the 303 acid.
For synths all yall need is a overdrive you like (if any) and Zoom MS-70CDR. End of story, thank me later.
I saw this post and looked into the ms-70. It came today, seems like a great tool to have in the studio. So thank you for the recommendation.
Did I miss the clean signal for comparison?
Having an H9 Max plus Timeline plus BigSky plus lots of on-board FX, the only pedal that sounds really interesting to me is the Tera Echo.
How are you connecting the pedals to the synths, what is the signal chain?
simplest :you run the synth output into the pedal. if you have a mixer with aux returns, you can put those pedals in effects loops and mix in several parallel effects.
If you are wondering about pedal order, here is a good starting philosophy: do distortion fuzz first in chain, then modulations like flange/trem, then do your time-based pedals like rev/delay. i also recommend playing with the order to discover weird new effects.
Pretty simple! synth/drum machine output > pedal input > pedal output > Focusrite ISA 110 line input > Focusrite output > Apogee Ensemble. This is not the only way, however, it is the cleanest way. If using the pedals in an effects loop, whether it be in your DAW or guitar amp, you're adding additional circuits and/or A/D conversion, which will always color the signal a bit more. And to support JJ Rusy's comment, that chain will certainly work, but it's also about what type of sound you're trying to achieve, which could have a direct influence on your EFX chain.
13:50 🤔..this needs further clarification, or a demonstration perhaps?
Not exactly budget, but my favorite thing to put a mono synth through is a Data Corrupter. It lets you have a completely different (nasty) sound with a single click. Pretty unruly so might only work in a noisy band. There's not a wet/dry on it, so no telling what it would do to a drum machine.
Earthquaker is a solid company! Data Corrupter is on my list of must-haves!
Mono Effects? Uhm
this is the most boring selection. There are so many unique and amazing pedals around!
Just get an iPad (or iPhone), an audio interface, and load up on high-quality effects apps.
Or, god forbid, use a damned laptop.
Some effects are better analog tho !
"JUST" get an ipad? dude, those are expensive, then you still have to "load up".
Yeah that’s what I do when I’m not at my main computer.
what a misleading title.👎
