Well its been a while since i contributed something. So heres an update... the end is near :D

So... heres all my toys.

Korg DT-10 - Tuning needs

Jekyll & Hyde - creamy smooth distortion and a PHAT grinding grit sound

Looper - Locally made, loop 1 is my "bigballs" distortion loop. Basically running my muff with some nice fuzz into a bassballs with the distortion off and sens set low. Makes a really nice synthish fuzz. Nothing as outrageous as a prunes and custard, but i love it. almost time is running out type sound

Boss V-Wah - My first wah, wasnt getting an aggressive enough sound. Ive been trying to sell/trade it for either a small stone/phase90/digitech BSW, but have had no luck. So im using the uni vibe mode which is cool. But if you are looking for one of these, PM me;)

Weeping Demon - My lovely demon. Awsome wah, set for an agressive sound. holds bottom end wonderfully and great tone while very versatile. Sounds great with distortion too.

BF-2 - Great little flanger. same as justin chancellor too:smug: I liked this taiwanese version better than the japanese, its more transparent sounding. Very versatile too.

EHX small clone - Awsome chorus. Simple to use and sounds amazing. I have it set for a slight chorus for playing melodic parts. I like it without the wobble, so the depth switch is down.

Aphex bass exciter - I bought this to compliment my new rig. GK400RB into a Warwick pro410. The cab is very midrangey, so i got this to phatten and warm up my sound a bit. Permanently run aswell.

To come is a Chunk Systems Brown Dog, for all my fuzz needs. (i like distortion:smug: ) and a boss NS-2. The NS-2 is for the BF-2 and Aphex, theyre a bit noisy. Im also thinking about delay now. Damn you Matt Till, telling me i need delay!:D Also, id like to get rid of my v-wah for a BSW or phaser, so if ur interested PM me ;)

Im going to make my own board, hook everything up with ye olde George Ls, and probably use a Godlyke to power my pedals.

Currently (I'm still waffling)
NS-2 -> Analogman Bi-Comp -> POG -> Bad Monkey -> Cool Cat -> NS-2

That's a nice board. How do you like that Cool Cat? Also, is there a lot of noise from the Bi-Comp? Thanks.

I really like the cool cat, but admittedly have not tried a bunch of other chorus pedals. That said it hits the sound I'm looking for (generally a dark shimmer) and I'm not out looking for something "better".

The bi-comp is an intresting beast and the most recent addition to my stuff (so I'm least familar with it.. in fact havn't even had a full band practice with it). The only noise sitution that I've really noticed with it is when both the ross and the juicer sides are turned on. That said, I'm not super sensitive to compression noise issues and it's dead quite when turned off (even without the NS-2). I'm lovin the juicer side for everything but slap (where it seems to swallow notes) and there I find the ross useful. Getting it into the band mix will really help firm up my opinion on it, since its just by music room doodling so far.

Thanks for the info. I have seen a few boards with a Cool Cat and have been interested in hearing one. I have an MXR Stereo Chorus, but it is a little too subtle for some things. I've been thinking about a good comp, too. So far, I've narrowed it down to an EMMA TransMORGrifier, HBE ComPressorRetro or the Analogman. It sounds like the Analogman might be the better choice. Thanks again.

I have heard great things about both of them. The only reason I'm considering the three I listed above is availability. I can buy the EMMA or the HBE at my local shop, and a friend of mine is willing to sell me his Analogman. Thanks for the notion, though. If I end up ordering something, it may be the Demeter.

I've messed with the Emma Disco quite a bit and while I liked it very much I thought the versitility of the of bi-comp suited me better. I'm not much of a knob twister... I want to find a sound that works for me and go with it. The Disco had great sounds, but I wasn't intrested in twisting knobs all the time to dial them in.

I do wish it had a littre more hi end when totally pressed, But I might be opening it an turn the wah pot a bit to treblle side ( a current and easy guitar wah mod)

but the auto off is totaly freaking cool, don't be afraid of the off delay, you just need to turn the internal pot!

It was at 187 euros here in Belgium, I got mine for 120 because I' asked for a deal (some minor scratch&dent because of demo model)
