EQD Dispatch Master - anybody enjoying one of these?

[jellodog]

Now most of you on here seem to enjoy your big old RAWK tones; but perhaps there is someone that enjoys a nice clean ambient tone from time to time here?

@the swede ... is that you?

So the EQD Dispatch Master - have you tried it; and if so .... thoughts?

I appreciate that it's just another FV-1 spin chip like most of the other reverb / delay pedals and that it's more than a decade old now, but is it still a classic?

I like what I hear online.

Also wondering if it noticeably changes the dry tone part of the blended signal when engaged. That sort of thing really annoys me.

What am I looking for? Well I already have high quality delay and reverb devices, but by all accounts the Dispatch Master has a sweet and musical quality to it. I feel that I'm looking for that when I'm in an ambient mood. Something different.

Ooh. I will add you to my mental list of ambient / clean TGF peeps where @the swede already resides.

My only issue with it was sometimes running a drive or fuzz in front of it would cause
the pedal to clip. But man, I don't think you can do better for all in one mostly clean
ambient machine.

Also... "pants tight" is like, the highest of all accolades; without a doubt!

@la szum What? You too?

I thought all you guys on this forum were mercilessly thrashing your Diezels and SLOs night and day and that I was the odd one out.

This is very comforting.

Haha! I enjoy both an hot cup of tea, and a stiff tumbler of whiskey. Not at the same time, though.

Someone said tight pants?

Dispatch master is great, it’s just so easy to use and sounds good no matter how you set it.

I’m starting to move away from snagging drives/fuzzes and need to start focusing on time based/modulation stuff. I’ve been really curious about EQD pedals, they’ve definitely got some stuff that answers the “What’s next?” question in regards to pedals. There was one delay they did a limited run of, I think it was a collaboration pedal….the Time Shadows, that sounded cool as f*ck but they were sold out by the time I found out about them.

GC has a ton of EQD stuff in stock, I need to go in and just deal with the salesmen to hear how they sound.

I’ve considered swapping my DL4 for a Dispatch Master. Lose some versatility but gain simplicity. DM does a thing, and does it well.

 

[jellodog]

Yes, I'm increasingly attracted to simple.

Typing that ^^^ looking at the FM3, then back at my mini pedalboard

 

[spawnofthesith]

The dispatch master is literally one of the greatest pedals of all time. It will go down in history. Very special pedal, dont delay buy now

 

[hemmelight]

Operators are standing by!

 

[jellodog]

dont delay buy now

Don't delay.

Phuq. Amazon just make it too easy to press that button.

Arriving tomorrow. One of the few benefits of living near a major airport and distribution centre, I suppose.

Thanks all that commented here for your... uh... enableing encouragement.

Spin chip incoming!

 

[jellodog]

One in, one out. Just sold the Fire Bottle

I think Gilad Hekselman (awesome jazz guitarist) uses one as well.

Pls do report how you find it!
