Members dgc480 Posted October 18, 2010 Author Members Share Posted October 18, 2010 I guess my main question is, how many loops can you save to one preset on the MARS manipulator? This will be a big factor in my decision. thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members ben_allison Posted October 19, 2010 Members Share Posted October 19, 2010 I guess my main question is, how many loops can you save to one preset on the MARS manipulator? This will be a big factor in my decision. It looks like 8 loops, and 8 presets; a preset being able to store any combination of the 8 loops being on or off (same capability as the octaswitch).

Phil O'Keefe Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 Like I said, I've never tried it, so I don't know the details about the Mars Manipulator. I THINK it's 8 presets, but I'm not sure. Again, there's someone on the forum who used to own one (Andrew?), but I don't recall who it was for certain. Sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MOEN Posted December 2, 2010 Members Share Posted December 2, 2010 Good to talk about moen guitar effects commander, the latest addition to the commander line is GEC9 which support up to 9 pedals, This effect switcher will feature unparalleled freedom to recall many more presets of effects than ever before along with control options for amp switching and other devices that accept 1/4" jacks. Find more detail here- http://www.moenfx.com/gec9.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members voodoogreg Posted April 17, 2011 Members Share Posted April 17, 2011 Plus one On the GEC9. My friend got one off e-bay I expected it to be crappy made and not really pass a good clean signal. I was surprised how well it was made, and that it very clean sounding, that I am thinking of getting one for my small board. I work for a store were i teach, and also make custom cabling, pedalboards and were trying to ge a moen dealership for these things. Plus the ablity to switch functions on amps and other devices.

Members One Man Banned Posted April 17, 2011 Members Share Posted April 17, 2011 The MusicomLab EFX2 is better: It's TINY! Has 8 loops, split into 2 groups of 4 which is nice if you want to have a volume pedal before some fx and after others. Also, each group of 4 has its own buffer which is nice cause you can turn the first one on or off (some fuzzes, etc, don't like buffers). But the buffers in this thing sound REALLY great. It can also handle a bunch of MIDI if you like, AND control amp channels/reverb which is awesome if you want to program amp settings into your presets! It has a direct access mode (allowing control over individual fx if you like), AND if a pedal or cable goes dead, simply unplug it, and everything else runs like normal. This is GREAT for live use if something goes wrong. It's really easy to program too, even live on stage. I use it to change pedals, scenes on my M9, and when I had an RV50, the Clean/Dirty channels... all with one button press. It's one of the best purchases I've ever made. Amazingly well thought out, built like a tank, and for what it is, takes up hardly any space! NO regrets. That's what I use on my board. I've been very happy with it.

Members voodoogreg Posted April 17, 2011 Members Share Posted April 17, 2011 That's what I use on my board. I've been very happy with it. I have used these in builds, GREAT unit! The midi is a great addition, and these have infinite possibilities. I despite the irritation to ilovemyfender, was looking for a forum thread on pedalboard mounted switchers for anything new I didn't know about. think the moen GEC9 is a good substitute for some of the more expensive units aka, musicom and G-Lab. Particularly if midi is not needed. VG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
