Jumped on a local Reverb listing for a Medusa. I pick it up Friday.

thumbs up for the graphic

The thing I like most about this thread is that there are people in here whose lack of self control rivals that of my own.

...that and the dope demo and music clips.

I know. The Zoia isn’t even here yet

Anyone want to take an Erebus V2 off my hands? Only played by a little old lady on Sundays.

Tempting. I just realized that at the moment the Abyss is nowhere to be found.

Wannabe ambient board.

I’d say the out of focus look is artistic, except it isn’t.

Just ordered a Hologram Dream Sequence. Anyone have any tips/ thoughts to share? Will be running it in the effects loop of the Plus pedal I think...

No tips. But that looks like a ton of fun in a pedal.

so tempting. I'm such a fool to go watch demos after seeing that post.

If I were to delve into the ambient relm, which type of pedals should I start with ?

I run two identical heads if it matters to which recommendations offered.

you’re running stereo? i’d start with volume pedal, and stereo delay and reverb pedals.

Not true stereo as in a separate pickup to each amp. I'm currently using an ABY.

I've been looking at the Strymon pedals.

Strymon make great gear... Though they are most popular for their reverbs and delays, you really can't go wrong.

i consider that true stereo. the different pickup to different amp seems different to me.

anywho, that’s how i run stereo. getting a delay/reverb that has good stereo imaging will make that come alive.

if you get into the looping thing, getting one that has stereo possibilities is also very cool.

I'll check that one out this evening when I get home from work.

My favorite vendor has them 12 months same as cash, so it might wind up on the short list.
