Eh, fuck it. For $50 its worth a try.
Ordered from Amazon.
I've got them all allocated already. Plus I like the idea of just being able to boost whatever I've got going on at any point.Couldn't you set up one of the loops as a dedicated solo boost?
If you have the 8 looper, you could still have 7 other rhythm sounds preset and run whatever pedal you bought as you're 8th loop.
Do they have problems with the switch? Or is it just every pedal's switch has a problem with Wein
I suppose for you're setup that makes sense. Once my build is complete I'm debating wether to set it up like yours with a variety of usable sounds or create patches for each song (or a patch for songs that require something different or out of the ordinary).I've got them all allocated already.

If I were dealing with a smaller list of songs it might also be easier but we have about 120 tunes so programming each song isn't going to happen. I do have a couple of things that I e programmed with specific songs in mind though.I suppose for you're setup that makes sense.

I ma go the hybrid route with some basic sounds that I can get a lot of mileage from and then create specific patches for songs that need something different.
My amp has a dedicated solo boost so it's a bit different than what you've got I believe.
The thing that has me intruiged is the momentary boost thing. I can see that being pretty useful with the stuff I'm doing.My vote is the for Wampler dB+
I use that function on the tapping part in my band's song Old Bodies.The thing that has me intruiged is the momentary boost thing. I can see that being pretty useful with the stuff I'm doing.
I do, but mostly over my low gain sounds. The loud crunch sounds take care of themselves in a trio. I don't like running anything in the loop of my amp although I've never tried a boost pedal before. Maybe I'll give it a spin this week.Wait a minute....I though you wanted a solo boost type pedal.
I was assuming you would run it through the Fx loop like say, an mxr micro amp....
If you used the db+ you wouldn't be able to put it in front of your amp and take advantage of the buffer.
And in an already high gain situation (rhythm) you may not be able to get a volume boost from the pedal in front of you're amp once you run out of headroom.
I run my reverb, delay, eq and depending on which way sounds best, sometimes chorus and through the loop.I do, but mostly over my low gain sounds.

We'll see how or if the Tumnus fits in.
It seemed to be a decent one to try (I hated the Soul Food) that would also have a decent resale. I was also thinking about the J Rockett Archer but after checking all of the demos this seemed to be a good combination of sounds and resale.OMG it's a horsie pedal!
