New to Modeling and Want to Dip my Toe in the Water

[Moe45673]

I never use presets. I like the ME-90 because I can set my tones by twiddling knobs like a real pedalboard. Also, when I turn the thing off and then back on, it sounds like where the knobs are set. Like a real pedalboard.

I don't even save patches. I just use it in manual mode. Like a real pedalboard. All the controls are physical.

Too trebly? Turn down the tone on my dirt "pedal". Like on a real pedalboard. It's right there.

Delay too quiet? Turn up the level on the delay "pedal". Like a real pedalboard. It's right there.

here, I color coded the damned thing so you can easily see what maps to what

Those foot switches are atrocious. Ignoring all my other usual boss twitches, that's a big nope for me.

Sorry, I didn't realize you were the OP. I withdraw my advice

 

[JiveTurkey]

Hypocritically speaking; it is a good recommendation given the criteria at hand

Did you get a Helix stomp yet, OP?

The Pod Express is cool too, and cheaper. That would be an excellent choice to dip your toes into, imo.

He started a thread on TDPRI. I fear now that he may wind up buying a Peavey Bandit, ditching cable, and exchanging his smartphone for a Nokia flip.

All those actions are statistically correlated with a greater sense of fulfillment and inner peace! We can't have that kinda outcome 'round here!

You yuk it up now, but see how funny it is when he starts posting videos about his journey toward mastery of the pedal steel.

Tb3 thread approved!

journey toward mastery of the pedal steel.

That actually sounds cool.

That actually sounds cool.

I wonder what a pedal steel would sound like through a Triple Rec…

I heard he was going to get some headshots and set up some interviews at local agencies.

I wouldn't want to put words in your mouth, but I'm slowly getting the impression that you like the ME-90.

We done gave OP a taste of the water and he spat it back out

I do, but unlike the rest of you mooks, that's not why I recommend something to someone

I got the right amp for it.

Just do it:

FS - FM3 w/HP jack - $650

Very clean, fully functional FM3 w/headphone output(FW 7.0). It is loaded with a major commercial preset pack. $700 plus S/H/Ins. PayPal G&S for both protection. Also available is the Gator case I bought to travel with it, that has some rough but very functional padding to keep the unit tight...

Doesn't meet all your criteria, but that's an amazing deal, just for the effects alone!

Edit:

Oh, and btw the factory presets and the paid ones he's selling it with, you won't even need to bother creating any, I'd wager my paycheck on.

This. You really can’t get a better modeler for the price.
