I think that i've eased out of having a super drenched reverb sound now. Cranking my amp's Spring rather than massive gazey verb seems a little more palatable to me ears for the time being. Playing with a mid delay with heaps of repeats is the bulk of my tone. Cutting out the massive reverb cuts the mushiness. Never liked those wanky super pitch shifty, modulated and filter flavoured reverbs so maybe a simpler sound is the next step.

I accidentally low-balled a person on Reverb (too many tabs at 3am will do that to you), messaged him apologizing and told him to decline the offer. He accepted it nonetheless. :facepalm:

In one hand, I feel like a total douchelord, on the other hand, cheap pedals!

Don't know to embed the player on my phone, but here's a super-jank demo I did after work:

REALLY fun to try and find melodies and progressions to play against the weighted strings!

I've been thinking about selling my Echo Degrader for an In Limbo II. Be my guiding light, ILF.

I wasn't all that impressed with the Echo Degrader when I got to try one out, and the In Limbo has some sweet/uncommon functionality. DO IT.

Complete opposite for me. Didn't like the Limbo (first one) at all, love my ED to bits.

This is where I'm at. I like the ED, especially the complete degradation of the signal it can do, I just don't find myself using it that much, if at all right now, and the clip Ruiner posted yesterday in the GAS thread with the ARP mode popped a big one in my pants.

Some of the coolest stomps ever are the stomps you use the least. The same way you don't use a sharpie for watercolours.

Like, I feel you (except not using sharpie for watercolours), but the the pairing idea of a Hexe Revolver + In Limbo II with ARP delay is like a mind blowing revelation in my head.

And man kbit, totally destroyed any sense of certainty I felt with your recommendation :lol:

Well, you should get the Limbo II then. It's probably going to get harder to get ahold of than another ED down the line. :cool:

Just note that as with the RM-1N, no ED sounds 100% alike.

I mean I'm in the same boat with my DC so I'm totally with you emotionally. The best answer, if possible, is to keep it and just buy the other.
