Members MattACaster Posted November 15, 2010 Members Share Posted November 15, 2010 I remember there were some latency and signal strength issues when the pedal came out and I really hadn't heard anything about it since then. Does anyone use one of these? Have they released any firmware updates to fix these problems? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, it sounds best when the input trim is cranked, despite what the manual says. It does add a slightly "boxy" element to the tone, but for what I use it for, it's bad ass. Here's a clip I did....Guitar is tuned to drop D standard, then pushed down to G with the Droptune. http://www.netmusicians.org/files/93-02%20Stream%20of%20Consciousness.mp3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members LithiumZero Posted November 15, 2010 Members Share Posted November 15, 2010 My bandmate just picked one up this weekend. If it works out well for him I am going that route too. I would much rather carry one guitar (plus a backup) than the three I currently have on stage. I tried the pedal out at GC. There is some latency but you get used to it pretty fast. It works well at 1/2 step down but beyond 1 step down it gets really strange sounding and seems to really step on the tone. I figured I would wait to hear his at practice before I buy.

I dig the clip too! A buddy want to start going open mic nights around town and it seems like this would be great to have on a pedal board so I can fly between tunings with only 1 guitar.

That might be an issue. Ideally I'd like to be able to float between E and C. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
