What's your favorite effect type?

Post by devi ever »

You've had years to experiment with dozens of effects... but which TYPE of effect has always been your go-to favorite?

i think reverb/delay for me. distortion and non-traditional fuzz-effects are important, but reverb is almost always on.

Cannot live without: Fuzz, Delay, Octave, Amp Reverb
Good addition: Filter, Bit Crusher, Ring Mod

I cannot name just one.

As much as I love fuzz, delay.

Lots of delay.

Preferrably 2 or more in conjunction with each other, the little satanic interactions rock.

Yea, twenty-some now here myself, I miss the 'trade a DOD pedal for mushrooms' days or when some random dude would offer you pedals at a party that some former roommate had left behind.

Tremolo. Hard chop stuff, particularly. And of course fuzz and delay, but trem is an unsung hero for psych stuff.

Fuzz and trem, for sure. Filter is pretty close behind those.

Fuzz. A good fuzz pedal and I could even live without delay.

Delay, Verb, Fuzz. in that order.

This is deduced from looking at my current board. 5 delays, 3 reverbs, and 3 fuzzes. :evil:
