Beyond Stereo
My tinkering won't stop. I added one more pedal (a TC Electronic Vortex Flanger mini), and now the pedalboard can run three amps. (I asked the promoters to provide me with three amps, so I've got to use them!) The signal path is:
Dunlop Jimi Hendrix Signature Wah
TC Electronic PolyTune 2 mini
Fulltone Deja Vibe
MXR Phase 90 Script with LED
MXR Distortion Plus
TC Electronic MojoMojo Overdrive
TC Electonic Alter Ego V2 Vintage Echo which has stereo outputs...
Output 1 goes to Lehle Little Dual splitter, which will feed two amps with identical "dry" sound.
Output 2 goes to the Vortex Flanger mini, which will feed one amp with "wet" sound (The mix of dry and flange creates a sound similar to Robin Trower's "Bridge of Sighs.")
I'll spread the three amps across the stage, and the sound engineer will probably wonder why he bothered to bring a P.A. system. But after seeing several YouTube videos (from clinics) where my guitar is too low in the mix, I decided to take action... with amps everywhere!
Will the pedalboard evolve as the tour goes on? Only time will tell!
Thank you,
Paul
