‘Evening,
Well, my first clip…. Here goes:
Basic review:
Very simple pedal, depth switch (from user manual: “controlling the amount of frequency change in the altered signal”
and rate knob (from user manual: “controlling the speed of chorus modulation”. Messing with the internal trim pot ain’t recommended. Much warmer to my ears than the Boss CEB-3. The Neo Clone can almost sound flangish or tremolo-ish with certain settings. As for my preferred settings (for now): rate knob around noon with switch off, and no more than 9 am if switch on. Can get similar sound to Neil Young’s Keep on rocking… bass tone (beginning of last verse) with the last setting.
Set-up:
Peavey Grind 4 str. (both pickups on @ full volume, tone knobs at 90 %) > Boss CS-3 > EHX Neo Clone > SansAmp PBDDI (on light overdrive setting)> Recorder (Fostex MR-8 mk II).
Not my usual chain, as I left a few pedals out of it. I would’ve also gone chorus last, but wanted to use the SansAmp’s DI, so I switched them. I apologize for the playing and unwanted noises (due to either a bad cable or the pedal order?), but at least it gives an idea of what this chorus can do.
Here’s the sequence:
"Off switch" demo (fingerplaying)
0:00 > clean (SansAmp and CS-3 always on)
0:08 > Enter Neo Clone, rate knob @ 9 am
0:14 > rate @ noon
0:21 > rate @ 3 pm
"On switch" demo (pick):
0:00 > clean (SansAmp and CS-3 always on)
0:09 > Enter Neo Clone, rate knob @ 9 am
0:17 > rate @ noon
0:26 > rate @ 3 pm
As much as I wanted to buy this pedal, I can’t say it’s love at first sound, but the more I play with, the more I like it. Is it because of the switch from the digital CEB-3 to the analog Clone… could be. The final test will be when I use it with my live rig.
