I thought it'd be cool for those of us with physical pedals to discuss our arrangements
Going in order of cabling the guitar plugs into...
They are ordered in this way so all distortions are applied before the finalising effects. They're velcro'd to the case and don't move.
These are the only pedals I use for my tone/effects.
Any questions or comments welcome - however, it'd be great to see what kit you use!
Going in order of cabling the guitar plugs into...
- Behringer TU300 Chromatic Tuner (bottom right) - an ok tuner, though the power LED is deadly bright. Would like to change this tuner one day.
- Joyo JF-01 Vintage Overdrive (the green one) - this is made in China, metal construction, True Bypass, and a jrc4588 chip - the same chip as some of the Tube Screemers, but this is certainly priced more afford-ably for me. IMHO it sounds warmer than the BD-2 and doesn't breakup to soon as gain is applied.
- Boss BD-2 Blues Driver (Blue one at the bottom) - probably my favourite Boss pedal. It has LOADS of gain to play with, but to me it sounds a little bottom heavy and certainly breaks up quickly (guitar volume knob helps to manage this).
- Boss DS-1 Distortion (orange one) - for when I really need a dirty sound. When I use this I always need to turn the amp up as the sound muddies a lot (I'm thinking of using the Joyo as a booster to resolve this but still trying settings).
- NUX Time Force (white one) - this is a digital delay pedal, but I did my research - it's SERIOUSLY affordable and has: 11 delay types (yes 11!) a color digital display, L/R stereo output as well as a Tap-Tempo button buit in. Claims to have True Simulation of Analog Circuit - I could find no other product so feature rich - even compared to well-known brands! If you can - get one, you wont regret it!
- Biyang RV-10 Stereo "Tri Reverb" (blue, top-left) - true bypass and 3 types of reverb (hall/spring/room). full stereo L/R input and out (so the stereo NUX output can be carried through the reverb stereo effects). This baby is metal construction and has an A/B switch that affects each reverb type (giving 6 types in total). For me it permanently sits on the spring setting and is never turned off!
- Fender Champion 40 - The actual amp on the clean channel
