Line 6 Delay Modeler

[Steve Hinson]

I've been using this thing in the studio the last couple of days-it's awful close to a tube echoplex...much quieter tho.It will do digital,tape,analog and several other types of delay.I don't use many effects,but I'm going to keep this,I think.It gets the best Scotty Moore/Sun records slapback I've heard in a long time(with guitar).It gets that good Sneeky Pete echoplex sound too(like the Heart Like a Wheel album).

Steve,
Does the line 6 gizmo have any modulation fx ? You know, like the electro-harmonics delay. Did You check out the Akai Headrush ?

If you like the LINE-6 pod you'll love the LINE-6 flextone amp.no more goodie boxes

Bob-Line 6 makes another pedal for that-it does the CE-1,Phase 90,Leslie,etc.I'm not much of a chorus guy(I've kept them all though-use them on electric guitar some)so I went for the delay pedal-I haven't tried the Modulation Modeler,but I hear it's as good as the Delay Modeler.

Bob-as a matter of fact,the delay pedal does the E-H Memory Man-but the chorus is only on the REPEATS! didn't know it,but the real Memory Man is like that too...

By the way, if you want to hear some great sounding, upfront in your face steel by Steve, check out "Wake Up And Smell The Whiskey" which he recorded a little while back with Roger Miller's son Dean.I haven't heard the steel mixed up this loud on a country record since " Don't Rock The Jukebox" and there is a reason for it, it sounds really good.To put it bluntly this is non-pads steel at its best. I know I'm biased by why not?....

Thanks Pete!You know the old saying..."sometimes it works,sometimes it don't"...
