What I'm not comfortable is the thought that I have to step on a thing that has a "feminine gender" on it. It's pretty much like having someone's mom/sis/gf's name or pic on the pedal then stepping on it. At least that's how it comes across to me.

Members jorhay1 Posted April 7, 2012 Members Share Posted April 7, 2012 So it's a new fangled Pod with tubes of some sort? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members the Dodo Posted April 7, 2012 Members Share Posted April 7, 2012 No. Its nothing like a POD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ambient Posted April 7, 2012 Members Share Posted April 7, 2012 Oh boy. I think the dude you quoted is Japanese. In Japanese culture feet are seen as even dirtier than in the west. It is pretty offensive to touch something that represents another person (their belongings etc) with your feet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the end, it's just a wah with a silly name - hardly the hateful racist statement people in that TGP thread make it out to be. stephenfryquote.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members roquero Posted April 7, 2012 Members Share Posted April 7, 2012 Just nailed one from Musician's friend for $274.99 with the discount coupon they offer.I've always loved Yamaha's modelers [got the DG Stomp and Magic Stomp when they first came out] and am glad that they are back in the game!

Members iodine74 Posted April 8, 2012 Members Share Posted April 8, 2012 If I didn't have a MagicStomp I'd be all over this I think. I use the modeling alot on the MS with headphones at night and have gotten some sounds I really like. Even have some tthat sound great through my Princeton as well. I really hope this amp succeeds and Yamaha takes it to the next level. Robo how is the sound tho? Does it sound like a "little" amp? And does it feel like an amp? I know when I run through Garageband or Mainstage models through similar sized stereo speakers, it just really lacks something (MS actually sounds better).

Members Pewtershmit Posted April 8, 2012 Members Share Posted April 8, 2012 the yamaha rep brought one of these bitches in the other day. It was super cool, way smaller and lighter than I expected, but it didn't sound like it! From what he told me they were trying to utilize higher end home audio power amp/speakers so it could be toneful yet small and light. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EdMan57 Posted April 8, 2012 Members Share Posted April 8, 2012 Glad you like it.Btw,is the original production run "hum" problem with the ac adapter still an issue?Also,does the delay go longer than 300ms,and with more than one or two repeats?

Members RoboPimp Posted April 8, 2012 Author Members Share Posted April 8, 2012 So it's a new fangled Pod with tubes of some sort? its like a pod in that its digital modeling its not like a pod in that it did it really convincingly it looks like a tiny little amp head it sounds like there's an invisible twin reverb hiding somewhere the delay time seemed much longer than 300ms, with the tap function it would go quite long, long enough to do some "sound on sound" type stuff. That was one thing I loved about it, you turned one knob for delay, turn the same knob for more delay, turn it some more if you wanted delay and reverb. Its definitely not flexible enough for the delay/reverb ambient type players, but for adding air it worked really well. The phaser didn't sound too bad either... oh and the tremolo didn't seem to be able to change speeds I tried using the tap tempo switch and no... oh and when you did tap in a new tempo it made this little weird noise like "weeeooouuuuuuup!" that was annoying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the info.So I take it that the delay will allow for multiple repeats on the trails? Ed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members RoboPimp Posted April 9, 2012 Author Members Share Posted April 9, 2012 yeah, the knob seems control feedback/level simultaneously so as you turn it up the repeats get louder and repeat longer, then the tap tempo button sets the time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ryan. Posted April 9, 2012 Members Share Posted April 9, 2012 HOLE LEE {censored} amazing this thing pretty much defies reality in size/sound and the clean tones were some of the most fendery shimmering awesomeness I've ever heard. This is the lunchbox you've been looking for. Yamaha always brings quality. Dirt bikes to drumsets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Yarbicus Posted April 9, 2012 Members Share Posted April 9, 2012 Has anyone tried it with bass yet? That is primary selling point of the 10 over the 5, at least for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members RoboPimp Posted April 9, 2012 Author Members Share Posted April 9, 2012 the lowend was really impressive for sure, held together nicely on the clean tones but I can't imagine using it for bass except for maybe studio work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, that is what it is for. In Yamaha's own words, it is for "everything you do OFF stage." If it is able to handle a low B with decent clarity, then I am sold.
