nice job with the narrative!!!

[KingTretten]

I`ll get mine some time the next moths. I ordered it fromebay, but its been a long time int the sort facility in L.A.

I saved one of these from certain death, cleaned it, and it works fine. Never had time to check what it can actually do, but right now I'm thinking about the right reverb (I own the Ibanez SDR1000+ (also called Sony MU-R201), Lexicon MPX100, ART Multiverb Alpha 2.0 Studio Edition, Alesis Midiverb II, Roland Space Echo RE-201, and this puppy right here) to connect to the "send" of my Mackie mixer for analog mixing in our semi-pro studio. Any ideas? Thanks

does slash use reverb live?

[SharkGTS]

he's right got one used it in the 80's still use it now. Had to clean the pots replace the battery but otherwise works great.

Hey, I just got one of these on eBay... It arrived at the house today.... I'm just starting to mess around with it..

Do you have any recommended settings to use for the AFD sound?

[diablo9333]

@waveonetravel okay I am a noob at rack equipment.How do you use rack equipment? How do you plug it in? Need to know for when I do guitar covers.

[waveonetravel]

@diablo9333 The same way you would use a stompbox. There's an input and an output jack just like on a pedal. And that's it. To operate the unit, it's a bit more detailed than a pedal, but instead of knobs you have buttons. 

[diablo9333]

@waveonetravel Oh thanks. Is it being detailed also why it is more money than other pedals? ex. Whammy is $200 but the rack is like $500. BTW How good does this thing sound?

[waveonetravel]

@diablo9333 Yea one of the reasons it's more money is because the system is more detailed. You have many options when it comes to dialing in the sound. I absolutely love this unit. The reverb is so sweet and warm it's awesome.

[diablo9333]

@waveonetravel k one more question. What do you use to power it?

[waveonetravel]

@diablo9333 It just plugs into the wall. A standard household outlet. I personally run everything though a surge protector and power conditioner just to protect all of my gear.

[diablo9333]

@waveonetravel LOL but after watching a video I have 3 more questions. Does it come with the power cord? And I also see people with something called power conditioners if I only use 1 rack effects pedal would I need one? And what is the power conditioner used for?

[waveonetravel]

@diablo9333 It does come with the power cord, the cord is not removable. A power conditioner is always a good thing to have, not just if you have rack effects. Everything I use when I play is plugged into the conditioner. The amp, the pedals, the rack unit, it all goes to the conditioner. It will regulate your power to prevent it from spikes and make sure your equipment always gets a balanced signal. Also, it can quiet down some hum in your system caused by electrical interference.

[diablo9333]

@waveonetravel so in other words the power conditioner is not required? Nice to know. Thanks. Now I will officially get out of your hair.
