Raptio has been a staple of my live boards for years now. Revolver if Im getting fancy or want to hold my glitches.

It was priority, and should've been delivered the last day it was scanned (still leaving its origin state). Luckily after a single call from myself and at least 3 calls from the wonderful JonnyAngle, the package magically appeared at my local sorting station yesterday and is out for delivery today. I feel like I just got hit by an 18-wheeler full of relief :yay: :yay: :yay: :yay: :yay:
Dude! So excellent!

i haven't turned my ghost echo off since i got it. i can't remember how long. 4 or 5 years. it's the perfect always on reverb pedal. switching back and forth from heavy dirt to clean. i love it. also, the ape blaster fuzz. i keep buying really awesome dirt pedals that i love and plan to keep forever, but no matter what i keep coming back to a BAT badascan running into the ape blaster as my main dirt sound. it's fucking insane. also, i use it somewhat sparingly, but i have a big box dmm that i'll never sell. i got a great deal on it and i know that if i sold it i'll probably never be able to afford another one. and when that's the sound i need, nothing else will do it. that's actually most of my board. i'm boring. i have a disaster transport that i've loved for years that i use for all other delay besides the dmm. the foot switchable modulation is fucking great. i'll probably never sell it either. while we're at it, i use a turbo tuner. why would i ever want another tuner? it rules. so i guess my whole board is forever pedals. i have some other dirt that i switch out here and there as another option. I'm not a big pedal flipper though. i tend to every now and then expand what i want and i'll end up playing/buying a lot of different stuff and when i find the one that works i stick with it. except fuzz. i may have a "keeper" dirt sound, but i'll always keep trying new fuzz.

For me it's the clusterflux, no contest.

Second pedal I ever got, second only to a delay. Don't know how I even knew, I was such pre-ILF know-nothing when it came to effects, but I just knew. And lo and behold, here we still are, together 4 ever, almost always on. The funny thing is that I use it so subtly - little bit of drive with a hint of flange to it, at the end of my drive chain, just gives the nicest bit of motion to things.

Wish it was a little smaller tho... but it's ok baby, I still love you just the way you are

RV3!!!

Timeline in second, just because it's so dang useful that I can never go without it.

Bitquest third. It's not always on, but it's always comforting knowing that it's there haha

I'm getting an RV-3 next week! Stoked to finally try it out.

Mini is my forever pedal. I can always get a tone I like out of it. I've thought about getting a second one a lot. I'm always torn between using it as a light always-on OD or a big nasty crumbly distortion.

Hope you enjoy the RV3! I don't think it's for everyone, but there's something about how cold it is, especially on the plate setting, that really creates the perfect space for me.

I'm looking forward to how cold it is haha. Especially for short delays with some plate verb on top. I think it will work well in my weird noise surf punk band.

It used to be a V5 Big Muff, but now it's my Eau Claire Thunder.

Paired with a SHO clone

Eventide Timefactor. Still the delay-daddy after all these years, this will be prized from my cold dead etc. I could wax lyrical about this guy forever, every big box delay that has followed has failed to equal it.

I guess you're not the only one, Neil Halstead from Slowdive has two of them on his board. :love:

For me it would be the Mini, I just can't play without this on.

Elements. Although I wish it had preset/midi capabilities, unfair to chain the pedal to one setting, and can't be sacked writing all the settings down and changing them as it goes. Millennial Laziness you know?

That's hot. And here I was thinking I didn't need another delay pedal when the obvious answer was there all along!

Teach me. I have one on my board and have maybe explored 3% of it.

Side question for this thread:

Are there any consistent US dealers for MASF? Can't find much, and the MASF site is understandably a bit weird. I was reminded I'd really like to pick up a Raptio one of these days...
