whurly Posted October 12, 2006 Share Posted October 12, 2006 I'm doing some live recording on the weekend and I'll be running my Electro through a very clean valve amp. Does anyone have any suggestions for reverb/delay/other effects that will round out the sound a bit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Julien Posted October 12, 2006 Share Posted October 12, 2006 Hi Whurly, I like to add a bit of overdrive to my real wurly via a Hot Cake pedal. But then again, that's through a JC-120. For my digital stuff, sometimes a good tube preamp helps (Speakeasy). John I like to move it, move it (except The Wurly which can be a bit temperamental and the 122 for obvious reasons) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eric Posted October 12, 2006 Share Posted October 12, 2006 I like the Boss Giga Delay pedal - I think it is the DD20. There are a few analog delay settings that give it a nice, crunchy echo - either subtle or extreme, depending on how you move the knobs.

Steve Nathan Posted October 12, 2006 Share Posted October 12, 2006 There are some lesser known boxes worth hearing if you can find them. I have used a couple of Menatone overdrives on wurly. I especially like his "Top Boost in a Can" and "Blue Collar" pedals. They're kind of like AC30 and Fender amp sounding (respectively). In addition, there are some really nice sounding pedals by DamageControl, also a little hard to find, but worth a listen. Don't rush me. I'm playing as slowly as I can! http://www.stevenathanmusic.com/stevenathanmusic.com/HOME.html https://apple.co/2EGpYXK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whurly Posted October 13, 2006 Author Share Posted October 13, 2006 Thanks folks, I've been looking at the Hotcake but it's a bit expensive. I think the DD-20 might be the way to go because of its versitility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Julien Posted October 13, 2006 Share Posted October 13, 2006 Originally posted by whurly: Thanks folks, I've been looking at the Hotcake but it's a bit expensive. I got mine directly from Paul Crowther for $200. (you can order online, he even accepts paypal) The most difficult thing was finding him on the web - I'll track down his address if you're interested.

whurly Posted October 13, 2006 Author Share Posted October 13, 2006 Thanks King Julien, I'd appreciate the web address - I assume we're talking AU$ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Julien Posted October 13, 2006 Share Posted October 13, 2006 Paul Crowther [croth@clear.net.nz] and yes $A198 and BTW he recommended a bluesberry version for my particular needs. Very helpful. I gather he then went out to the back shed and built it himself! Had that sort of feel about it anyhow:) I like to move it, move it (except The Wurly which can be a bit temperamental and the 122 for obvious reasons) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whurly Posted October 13, 2006 Author Share Posted October 13, 2006 Thanks again, I've just emailed Paul for details. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bridog6996 Posted October 13, 2006 Share Posted October 13, 2006 I like a Rat2 distortion pedal, with just a little drive and a lot of filter. I'm not real big on reverb. I like the sound dry, and with the Rat2 you get a real round, warm tone. Also sounds fantastic with clavinet. You get that really punchy clav sound like John Medeski (after all, John does use a Rat with his clav). It's also fun to occasionally kick the drive way up and rock hard.
