Line6 M9

Updated my M13 so it has all the sounds of the M9

Ok I apologise for these as I think they have come out a bit quite but since you want to be listening to them on some decent speakers (not laptop) you can afford to crank it up a bit :rolleyes:

I'll do some more this week with my Radial Di box.

All sound samples are my Valenti Jazz (active) tuned DGCF so when you hear the super low notes on the octaver thats down to D not just E into the M13 into a 1970's Simms Watt PA100 Head into a Matamp 2x12 cab with a cheap Stagg kick drum mic on it.

First up, Harmoniser set to A Major with 5th up and octave up which you can hear the differences I even do some 100% octave up to show the tracking.

Partical Verb, loving this so far what I've done here is set the expr to go through the different modes stable, critical etc so you can hear different degrees of it.

Phasers, first one is the script which is awesome and probably my new favourite mod on this pedal, then it goes to the Barber one which I haven't quite got right, there is some clean playing between them to distinguish.

Whammy, ok so here I am playing with 1 and 2 oct's up, I also do 1 and 2 octs down but the 2 octs down is pretty inaudible, the tracking is stellar and it's polyphonic, so I'm just wiggling the expr and tweaking the shift and stuff so its doing the 1 or 2 octave up with either 50/50 mix or 100% wet signal.

Octaver and chorus, this is the new EBS based octaver which I use first on it's own, then the analog chorus on it's own then both together. Tracking goes iffy around G but will still sound reasonable to D :) below E, it can just about handle double stops but not chords, the Whammy model can :lol:

Like I say these are a bit quiet but it's late here and I can't keep playing away through my amp, I'll redo these at some point and record new ones that cover my dirt and wah's and other weird noises that I'm yet to get nailed down, but in the mean time hope you enjoy these.

Cheers

I was just thinking it wouldn't make sense to waste one of the patches on 'volume pedal' setting while you could just put the volume pedal before or after the m9 anyway... Yeah.

I think I may have been convinced you know. I'm going to assume from looking at it that I wouldn't be able to fit two EB pedals, an M9 and maybe one or two other pedals onto a Pedaltrain Jr?

This is starting to grow on me now. Ive never really been a fan of multi fx pedals, but this seems very useful and good quality. Im seriously considering selling half my pedals and getting one of these instead.

Does it have any good fuzz settings on it? I havnt heard anything about that so far, and a fuzz seems to be one of those pedals that everyone is picky about with specific sounds.

It looks like they did hold the price, I need to check the invoice when it arrives though. My account on Dolphin still shows the same price though, so without contcating me, they cannot charge any more to my card!

Could be the best £215 I've spent for a while!

I got to go away for a few days tonight though, so probably only gonna get a few minutes to have a play, will have to wait until sunday for a good work out with it

My mates recently bought one and is really raving on about it. I'm looking forward to trying it out on friday.

I wouldn't have thought I'd ever contemplate selling off my pedals but I'm at a crossroads where I want more effects but feel reluctant to upsize to a more cumbersome bigger pedal board.

The more I think about it the more it makes sense - providing I like the M9 when I try it out I could sell most of my pedals and by it, along with a pedaltrain mini and and I wouldn't have to add much more to swoop on a Mutron.

If a lot of people jump ship and move over to the M9 wagon will that drop the costs of pedals down in the MarketPlace with a lots of boards going wholesale I wonder?

Ok if you google about the M9 at the moment people are moaning about how it's on old firmware, well I looked and the only fx missing between what they advertise are below:

Bass Octaver
Sync to Midi Beat Clock
Resync LFOs
Relative Mode
Heel/Toe Pixels

Only annoying one is the Bass Octaver but this update will be there very soon, so don't be put off. People are just making out like the thing has come bare bones, even I paniced.

I paid for mine last night but will still have to wait 10 days for it.

Takes up more room than I'd like to do that. M9 is fine for me on its own with a couple of expression pedals. Infact, what's the smallest pedaltrain I can get an M9, two EB jr pedals and a couple of other stompboxes on? I don't think I'll fit on a Jr but I'm thinking the PT2 might be too big :/
