Borrowed an EQD Disaster Transport SR

[JiveTurkey]

Friend of mine had a brother who passed a few years back. Great guy, ran FOH and tour managed for a bunch of bands. He had a TON of gear. Buddy lent me the EQD Disaster Transport to see if we could run vocals through it. I put it in the loop of the Multiwatt and holy fuck! Good stuff! I always thought you were paying for the paint job with this company but this pedal actually does something quite nice when engaged

Modulation is weird and my "beard" is nowhere near neck-y enough for it. Reverb is still eluding me but I am also playing at home volumes so my perception is I am sure a bit skewed. Delays are VERY nice though!

If it sounds anything like the EQD Dispatch Master, then it must sound spectacular. My Dispatch Master is practically hardwired to the fx loop in my Badlander 100.

I like it in the MW loop. Didn't bother to try it with the JVM loop but up front delays are 100000000% NOT my thing. Sounds KILLER in the loop of the Rectifier though. Oof!

Great pedal! I picked up the Disaster Transport reissue not that long ago because they had a good sale because I really liked how the Sr was voiced. I like to run the modulation speed real slow and turn the depth down pretty low as it gets wild quick. I also have the Space Spiral which is similar but has darker repeats - the space spiral reminds me of the Carbon Copy and the Disaster Transport is like a Boss DM2 (a little brighter) - it sounds great going into the front of the amp too.

I've pretty much given up running anything in the JVM410H loop other than a gate.

Interesting! I need to try it in front of the Boogie. It was fine in front of the JVM ran super low into the Suhr then into the III.

Its GREAT thru the Suhr and AXE for post. Probably best way to run it at mortal volumes with fx.

Sweet! Haven't tried that one but want too. Eqd pedals always have mojo.

Nice man, I really want a good delay for my home stuff and they have a sick deal on it right now. I think it’s like $130?!

I had the Plumes and was smitten with it for about 10 minutes then it fell off hard for no real reason. I'm interested to hear this up LOUD and see how it does

That's a good price!

I love the Disaster Transport. I got mine from EQD Day with my Dispatch Master. It was buy one pedal get a DT for $100. It’s become my favorite delay. Definitely in the memory man vein. Set the modulation low and conservative to get what you want there. A little goes a long way. As much as I like the dispatch master I think the disaster transport overtook it. Plus it’s named after an indoor roller coaster at Cedar Point.

It's very rich sounding without me feeling like I need to play Z grade Baroness riffs with it or whatever At least at low volumes. I should have some time over the holiday weekend to get it up loud

Awesome! EQD are no joke. Pilgrimage to Akron sometime for EQD Days!

Nice. I grabbed a B Stock Disaster Transport from EQD’s Reverb outlet for $99 recently. Its killer. Couldn't tell it from a new unit either.
