Re: what is the state of things with pedals these days?
Wow. I remember the Deja Vu but I don't think I'd gone pedal intensive yet
at the time. If it were stereo, it would be a slam dunk for me — probably
much better than using the El Capistan as a looper. Of course, stereo
would also up the complexity of the inserts. I wish I wasn't so fond of
stereo chorus and delays.
As for the TC delays, I pretty much always use them in the quarter plus
dotted eighth mode, but the Nova has other options. I'm trying to love the
expression pedal with the Alter Ego X4 but I'm finding it to be a pain to
program.
