Re: m13 - m9

[Jeff Duke <jeffloops@gmail.com>]

Of course the M9 isn't perfect, I personally think that the delays could be better quality. I wish it had better level controls for some patches, especially filters. I am thinking Obi Wah in particular will clip like mad on some of the peaks probably like the wahs you mentioned Bill. my m9 runs after the preamp /comp pedals also. There are other things but...

What is does right is give me tons of cool sounding fx in a tiny footprint. Y2K would have been difficult for me if it wasn't for this little beastie! The ex peds give me plenty of control also. I really do like the looper for pre fx use. I feed it to some Alesis mod fx and a Vortex, then into my 2 other loopers (2880, DD 20)

I want Eventide Space pedal also but will have to sell something to get it!

Agree Rainer about the 100% wet/dry split but I wasn't looking for that in this instance. In the old days much of the good rack stuff had this feature if i remember right.

The buttons are a bit noisy but it doesn't  affect me since I run direct into my computer for everything at home. It might if you mic.

best,

What's missing for me with the M13 relative to the AM8000R from a signal flow standpoint is if I want to get some straight signal in addition to the ambient effects. There are definitely interesting effects to get by cranking the mix to fully wet on the earlier effects and reprocessing with the later effects and this isn't really viable with the Line6 effects if you also want some dry signal since each effects section just feeds into the next.
Maybe you are using a different effect than me???? There are a few dry thru delays on the M-9/13  that allow just what you are taking about, and then there are individual mix controls for every effect, which will do the same thing, So you are lamenting the lack of a wet and dry output?  Mark,  i can't wait to see the looper/multi effect you have on the design board. It will have every feature known to mankind!!!!

The way I understand Mark's post - and from the M9 manual it seems it's not possible with the M9:

Let's say you want the following:
Your dry signal goes into a pitch shifter. The full wet pitch shifted signal goes into a delay (50/50 mix). Then both the output of the delay and the dry signal go into a reverb.

The way I understand the M9's routing concept (which is, basically, like three stompboxes in series), that is not possible with the M9.
Btw, Mark, perhaps you can find a Sony GR-MP5 w/ optional remote control for next to nothing - because that's something this old Sony thing can do. (but then again, it's a 9.5'' rack unit).
