Which delay pedal does the edge use

It will do two parallel delays or you can do a single double tap delay to get the Edge rhythmic stuff. The TC Triple is also a great U2 sound machine and the ability to do multiple delays in parallel or serially, really lets you do some Edge-stle sonic exploration. A Flashback single and an Alter Ego also single. Wire them up in stereo. DMM modes will get you War and Boy. Cascading delays is fun stuff. Go experiment! LordByron said:. Stratburst70 Member.

It depends on how in-depth you want to get. I have the DD and I love it for U2-type stuff. Kyle Byquist Member. Messages 6, Eventide TimeFactor is by far the best I've used for U2. For the early stuff, you need a DMM. That said, the H9, Timefactor or Timeline will get you there.

If you didn't need dual delay I'd suggest the Providence Chrono. If you don't care about the time readout, there is always the DIG. I always thought his thing was DMM.

The other knobs are also affected somehow to this parameter so you have plenty of room to experiment and dial up the perfect sound. The other great thing is that this pedal comes with a switch for enabling or disabling the cabinet simulator.

In fact, lots of users mentioned this pedal really shines when you use it this way. But as mentioned earlier, this guy is really useful going straight from the back of your board to a PA or a mixing desk. It has to be mentioned it is also more expensive.

You can check the price on Reverb here. But… what about actually using a real amp? After all, I think we all know the sound of a real amp is hard to beat.

Last year VOX brought to the market this new amp series which consisted of 5 models. Obviously, the AC30 type was one of them. This little guy just weights around grams like 1 pound but has 50 watts of power! Adding more to the hype, the pre-amp circuitry contains analog components which help to reinforce the classic dynamics of a tube amp.

Some people complained that it would have been perfect if the amp had an effects loop. I get it, a lot of guitar players run their effects through that. Can this amp replace an AC30?

Also, this is not a combo amp. With that being said, this little piece of equipment does offer a lot of versatility. You can also use a pair of headphones and suddenly you have a full sounding amp through your ears without being an inconvenience for the rest of your neighbors :.

The MV50 AC can be the perfect practice amp or can also completely replace a regular amp especially if you gig a lot on small venues well I mean, with 50 watts has enough power for a regular venue too!

You can check the price on Amazon here. Here I will try to examine more closely the combinations of all the gear mentioned before and how we can make a budget for it. The idea again is to start from the simplest option and from there go to the more complicated combinations.

I hope this helps you to get the idea on how you can keep making scenarios. I did have a lot of fun researching and checking the different options here and there.

It took lots of hours though… But it was totally worth it! The whole idea behind this was to show people it is possible to find your way around in a sea of expensive gear and still somehow emulate the sounds of the guitar players we all love. What do you think of the list? Is it cheap enough? Is it still expensive? What would you change or recommend? Please leave a comment and give your 2 cents!

This creates a small contradiction because the guys from Herdim make the picks on three different colors and gauges: Yellow: 0. Image 7: Here you can see the first version of the Flashback on a pedalboard. I recommend you to get the Flashback 2, same look and size but better features.

Out of curiosity, I studied the audio tracks closely and calculated the exact settings he used for that song and others and I found out that the real answer is a little more interesting. Hopefully it will help you think a little bit differently about how you use delay in your own songs.

What is this site all about? Sending the different delays to separate amps allows more control when mixing the songs -- you can vary the levels, or send 1 delay to the left and another to the right.

I believe that usually, the initial dry signal is sent into both amps by both delay units. However, in some cases, one amps may be used for the initial signal only ie no delay and the other may just have the delays ie no dry signal.

See the above picture - that will make the explanation a lot clearer. Since sound travels through air at around 1. Sometimes he puts a mic behind one of his amps. Is this important? These echoes were probably accidental, but they do influence his sound and help to give it a bigger, more stereo feel. BB code is On. Smilies are On. Trackbacks are Off. Pingbacks are Off.
