Members Stravinsky Posted March 1, 2008 Members Share Posted March 1, 2008 If pedals were women, I'd own Wilt Chamberlain in the number I've been through. I met the XP-300 Spacestation today and can't fathom where this pedal has been my entire life. I haven't even had a chance to run it through any mod/filter/delay stuff - just straight into the amp. The negation of tweak-ables didn't even phase me, 'cause I can't believe my f'ing guitar sounds just like a synth. B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Fender&EHX4ever Posted March 1, 2008 Members Share Posted March 1, 2008 I think I've watched Hurb's demo about 50 times now. Great demo, but I want more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Stravinsky Posted March 1, 2008 Author Members Share Posted March 1, 2008 I'll post some clips or a vid in a few days of how the XP-300 interacts with some mod/filter/delay/dirt etc... Will my PP2 power this on the L6 jacks, or is that where the AC version comes into play? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members cobalt-60 Posted March 1, 2008 Members Share Posted March 1, 2008 How much do these go for? $250-$400, and the last time I asked, there is no plan to reissue them. If I ran a company, an evolved version of this thing would be the first thing I'd make, it is sick nasty. It'd be great if Digitech plunked one of these and a Whammy in a RP-200 unit, with knobs and patches. It'd be big, but it would be the most insane digital noise machine on Earth. I use to have one, it was pretty intuitive, it just needed a dedicated bypass switch above the patch pedals. LOL at the last three "tv-sitcom-flashback" patches. Anyone know what distortion he turned on half way through? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members aaland_brian Posted March 1, 2008 Members Share Posted March 1, 2008 I had one for about a year and had a lot of fun just jammin on it, but trying to work any of the swells into a song was hard. It has a cool delay that goes from a normal delay, to no delay in the middle of the pedal sweep, to reverse with the pedal down. Another problem mine had was I had to calibrate it on almost a weekly basis. Save yourself some money and headaches and get the EX-7 for the synth swell stuff.

Members Coma Larkin Posted March 1, 2008 Members Share Posted March 1, 2008 Guitargeek over at guitargeek.com has a pretty cool mod where it's all 4 of the XP series in one housing. You have to unplug it to get the next XP pedal loaded up, but it's a somewhat minor quibble for the convenience of having 4 of them in one. Never used much more than the Space Station, and even then, I just didn't use it enough to justify keeping it. I used settings 3-7 the most, and while it had a cool glitchiness to it like a Whammy, I didn't think it was versatile enough to really be used as a synth type effect. It seemed to ape Vangelis type swells, and even then, they weren't warm and inviting at all. Just wasn't my thing, I guess. Sincerely glad you're enjoying it!

Members cloudscapes Posted March 1, 2008 Members Share Posted March 1, 2008 it's nice but the bypass is kind of borked on mine (it's 3 tiems louder than it should be). also, the effect range is pretty shallow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
