Line 6 M9 & M13 Club

Yeah... I have tons of questions... :hiding:
Going to spend the rest of the day reading through all the M9 threads thats are out here.

You guys are making me GAS for one.
I wan't interested in the M13 because of the large footprint. But the M9 seems appealling for transportability reasons. (I'm into downsizing these days.)

Would an M9 + expression pedal be more compact than a pedalboard with: BOSS CS-3 -> EHX XO Worm -> Ernie Ball volume pedal -> EHX XO Deluxe Memory man + maybe an other pedal (BDDI)?
I guess so. :)


Oh and Rich, thank you for modelling the Lightfoot Labs Goatkeeper. :spit:
Now my Goatkeeper devalued on the [DEL]extortion[/DEL] used market. :(

:D ;)

Thanks man.

I am not sure about the footprint. The size is 10.5 x 6.5 inches.

Our tremolo was inspired by it. The Goatkeeper does a bunch of things that the trem doesn't. It is a super cool pedal. There is no way to devalue a great pedal like that. :)
 
Hey all, due to some recent developments, I've been forced to reconsider the pricetag on the M9 - perhaps one day I will own onee again, unfortunately, just not now. So I will be turning in my number. I'll pass it on to Rich, being that he has been so helpful and informative to all of us regarding the M9 and M13...
Hopefully you guys will perpetuate the club and grow it! below is the latest member # list, somebody will have to take over the # dispensing from here. Take care all!!

I shall treat it with respect.

Thought I'd spark some love into this thread again.

Anyone just use this and no other pedals? I'm wondering whether the fuzz/od/distortion on the M9 is better than, or close to, single dedicated pedals. Only reason I ask is because on my old ME50-B, the drive section was poor. Really need to try one of these out.
 
I still technically don't 'own' an M9, but I constantly borrow my room-mates to play with until I have my own (saving $$).

That said, I wanted to start a thread where people list pedals they've replaced with the m9/m13. This seems like a good place to do that. Also it would be cool if people listed things they decided they still needed after the m9. For example, I'm not convinced with the compressors yet, and I see a lot of people still using a separate tuner. I also haven't heard the latest update with the octaver, so I don't know if my OC-2 will be going anywhere.
 
I just wanted to bump this thread, thinking of getting the M9. Also, thank you for making this thread "line6m9" for search purposes.

Being for guitar kind of scares me a bit, hows the tone suckage?

I'm really interested in the octave, compression, some over drive and envelope filters; I'd probably get the expression pedal for it as well. How do these features hold up to stomp boxes?

Either the M13 (which I used to own) or the M9 (own now) are great with bass. Most effects have a 'Mix' know, so you can control how much effect and how much clean signal passes. I use the Tube Comp model constantly... it's an always-on effect.
 
I just spent my first week with an M9. I purchased it to see if it could replace some of my individual fx boxes (boss bass chorus, and flanger) which it can certainly pull off. The octave is great and there are so many great patches it's going to be a challenge to set up the scenes in a manner that I won't want to change daily.

So put me down for a number because I'm keeping this thing!
