Members Faldoe Posted April 22, 2008 Members Share Posted April 22, 2008 Can you do the thing with an RE-20 that people have done with the verbzilla? - Running a cable from the mono out to right in and then from the right out to amp? Someone said you could get good sounds doing this with the verbzilla... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members frankenstone Posted April 23, 2008 Members Share Posted April 23, 2008 How do you guys run your RE-20s? Mine does not seem to want to play nice in the effects loop of my tube amp even though it's not a gain-based effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems to make it more hifi too, you should try it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members echodeluxe Posted May 8, 2008 Author Members Share Posted May 8, 2008 awesome man! welcome to the club!the tap tempo is awesome, i love it.the delays get dark and gritty and with a touch of the OD-3, its amazing sounding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members jordanjordan Posted May 8, 2008 Members Share Posted May 8, 2008 I played a melos tape echo last night, and as much as i love that warm natural sound of actual tape... it was a huge pain in the ass. really temperamental and unreliable unit. the re20 kinda seems a little too accessable and easy to use, but i can't complain. yay for technology huh.

Members dandy13 Posted May 8, 2008 Members Share Posted May 8, 2008 the re20 has been having trouble cutting through the mix when I play with another guitar player. I regret selling my ad900. tweaking the tone controls helps but gotta be carefull not to get too treble-y Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've more or less got into the routine of leaving it on the third mode, and just adjusting delay time, volume and repeats as needed. With my Vox the pedal does add a little hiss, but its far from unbearable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members gambit Posted May 8, 2008 Members Share Posted May 8, 2008 can i be slightly controversial and question if the artifical high frequency whirring gets on your nerves?i spent a solid hour with an RE-20 when it came out thinking i would love it, but even turning exaggerated tone settings kept the sschhtk sschhtk sschhtk artifact. if i could have dialed it out i would have bought one, but i couldn't, and every clip i hear since then has it.i know its part of the character but it would do my head in after a while. especially when using lots of repeats like i do.

Members houseofglass21 Posted May 8, 2008 Members Share Posted May 8, 2008 I thought the delays on the RE-20 sounded great, very similar to the real thing. But I couldn't handle the high frequency loss when the pedal was engaged, it sucked all the high end out of the signal. I'd have a great cutting lead sound and then I'd turn on the RE-20 and it would dull the sound considerably. I guess it doesn't bother most people, and usually I'm not too fussy, but I could really hear the difference. So in the end that's why I sold it. I considered getting a mixer pedal like the Radial BigShot Mix to run it in parallel, but it's just too much hassle. The Boss DD-5 I had never did this, so I guess it's something to do with the COSM on the RE-20. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Mandooks Posted May 8, 2008 Members Share Posted May 8, 2008 I just got the RE-20 a couple of weeks ago. This thing is pretty awesome. I just wanted to share this setting I was dicking around with. It has kind of a Bob Marley Exodus vibe to it.

Did you read my posts on Page 3? I had he same problem, and I solved it by moving my buffered pedals around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
