Interesting. It seems as noisy as most analogue phasers, and certainly quieter than my Moog was. Either way, it really works for me. My Mr Black Gilamondo just got replaced without quibble. Overall, I’m finding them all amazing. I wish the delay had a tap tempo, but aside that, I can’t fault them. The chorus has absolutely blow me away. I couldn’t see a chorus dethroning the Horrothia Type One for a while, but this has done so in a heartbeat. Paired with my MP-201, these are all incredible.

Superb!

I don’t use delay often, but I used to enjoy the ‘wobble’ I could get from the EQD Disaster Transport, but these days I’m into the ‘reverse delay’ effect on the Line 6 M5; a little goes a long way!

Pool Hall Richard - The Faces

Three if my mates went to very expensive boarding schools. One has been fired from at least four jobs. One has bankrupted two businesses and a third soon most likely. The other one ended up selling cocaine so I then avoided him (I don't like drugs). A couple years later i heard he died of a heroin overdose. Ive also worked with several privately educated people who were mostly utterly hopeless. If I could afford to send my kids to private school, I wouldn't.

Funnily enough, I was also getting a bit disheartened with my teacher's focus on perfecting small seeming quite insignificant stuff - repeat, repeat, repeat again slower. Sticking to one section of one song until perfected. Focus on stuff that can feel a bit inconsequential like timing being slightly off, dynamics, pedaling....but I think cumulatively those things are what's important as you progress 'it's not what you play, it's how you play it'. I did take my teacher's advice and really committed to one song, I spent about 6hrs one day this week with that laser focus - if there was a small section I couldn't play I'd slow right down and just keep at it until I had it. Repeat. Repeat. I didn't move on from that song all day. Upshot being by the end of the day I could play 'The Muppets Theme' quite well, I was sick and tired of it but now rehearsing it to iron out things much more fun. So I dunno, but personally I think that committed focus and repetition for perfecting a small part can pay off. The opposite being my 30 years of general aimless noodling which didn't lead to much improvement... but was more enjoyable!
