Members echodeluxe Posted March 22, 2008 Author Members Share Posted March 22, 2008 if you want it to be a dd20 killer, you are looking at this the wrong way. if you want it to be a space echo, this is the pedal for you. no patches, no saving, no dotted eigth note (you need a setting to play this? what happened to just knowing how to set it?) no crazy bells and whistles. it is a space echo. it has tap tempo and an added twist function. thats it. it does the space echo amazingly. sounds fantastic. sounds like the best tape echoe ever.

Members houseofglass21 Posted March 22, 2008 Members Share Posted March 22, 2008 Great pedal but it definetly does alter your tone when it's on. It takes away some high end and adds a weird digital coloration. It most noticeable when using dirt, as soon as it's turned on there's less high end. Kind of unfortunate because it takes away a lot of the high-end cut when playing lead stuff. I'll have to make a clip of it because apparently nobody believes it. It's easier to hear it at a lower volume, say, through a practice amp. and btw, the tone control only affects the tone of the delay, not the dry signal...so turning the treble knob up doesn't help.

Members echodeluxe Posted March 22, 2008 Author Members Share Posted March 22, 2008 thats how i roll. all factual and {censored}. ANYWAY. ok, so i played around with the expression pedal a bunch and came to the conclusion that i really dont need it to do what i want. yeah its cool, but all the tweaking i need to do can be done without it, and i kinda like it that way. the function is badass, but i am trying to slim down and having the extra pedal isnt justified for me. i did try the re-20 at practice for the first time today and it rocked so hard that my DRUMMER noticed it. he was all "man that pedal is badass. im playing drums and wishing i had one to mess around with!" yeah, thats how great it is. this is probably going to be my go to delay from now on. im keeping the de7 because it has a different sound and the oscillation rules. i will most likely use the de7 as my hands on tweaking delay. basically getting rid of the de7 was a huge mistake last year and getting one again was the best idea evar. selling it would be stupid. i always have the reverb at about 10 o clock. i like the sound of it, its short but cavernous and kinda quirky. i can dig it. boss hit a home run. i mean, seriously. out of the park into the san francisco bay. amazing pedal.

Members mike.sartori Posted March 22, 2008 Members Share Posted March 22, 2008 Hey everybody, I too love the RE-20, I am much happier with it than I was with my Diamond Memory Lane (once I got over the fact that it wasn't analog and just listened to how good it sounds) - However, I have noticed that sometimes it's really hard to get it to even volume, I really don't know how that input volume knob is supposed to work, it seems like it can boost or cut my whole signal while the pedal is bypassed, but then it boosts the signal when I turn it on. I just want to be the same volume. Anyone who has mastered this knob lemme know what I am doing wrong! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members echodeluxe Posted March 22, 2008 Author Members Share Posted March 22, 2008 turn the input volume up until it starts to fainlty blinka little when you strum really hard. thats the ebst place for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members CicadaSilence Posted March 22, 2008 Members Share Posted March 22, 2008 I can't wait 'til I get mine back. I had basically sold it, but my nephew plugged it into a Moog powersupply ( ) so I had to have it taken in for repairs. I'm stoked to play it again...

If you buy this pedal it will take away you gas for pretty much everything.RE-20 + BD2 + Buddah Wah = All I need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
