danny-79 Posted June 10, 2010 Share Posted June 10, 2010 Just a quick question. I'm currently using a Marshall Eco-Head Delay , just wondering what kind of expression pedal would be good to go with it, what type etc Was thinking this could be used like a hold function maby ? Seen this on the bay : [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=270588890078&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...e=STRK:MEWAX:IT[/url] thanks in advance.

cheddatom Posted June 10, 2010 Share Posted June 10, 2010 I didn't think it had a hold function? That would do for tap tempo I think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Marshall Eco-Head if you are familiar with the effect) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheddatom Posted June 10, 2010 Share Posted June 10, 2010 yeh I have one. Tap tempo means you set the rate or tempo of the delays by tapping. On some pedals you have a little tep tempo button to do with your finger, but the echohead has a tempo tempo input for a momentary footswitch so you can tap with your foot!

dlloyd Posted June 10, 2010 Share Posted June 10, 2010 I used to use a Boss DD-5 with an external tap tempo. Loved it. A boss FS-5U would do the trick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danny-79 Posted June 10, 2010 Author Share Posted June 10, 2010 Thanks all for replies, makes sense now. (kind of) so with the tap tempo foot switch, would that mean i could change the delay rate/time as an when needed ? , like by remote kind of thing ?

Just tap your foot on the switch to the beat and repeat when the music tempo changes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
