IMO it's portable, sturdy, Japanese made, multifx that let you have all the options of the valvetronix amps at your feet.

what is the diff between vox stomplab 1g and 2g? sorry for the noob question

"The StompLab IIG and IIB provide an expression pedal that lets you control a variety of effect parameters including wah and volume"

assuming that it follows the same mechanics as the valvtronix thingy, it will be good for overdriven, classic tones, where it doesnt fare too well is in heavy metal tunes.

the high gain setting on the vox pedals tend go have a buzz saw like tone and lacking in low end punch

Is that vox stomplab 2g have sustain, whammy etc. sorry for my noob my question again

First link is the product page, second is the IG product manual, third is the IIG product manual.

Not sure what you mean by "sustain" effect, but both seem to have pitch shift (whammy). I'm not sure if that parameter is controllable by foot pedal, but I'd expect it to be. The manual should have all the details.

oh I mean what is foot pedal use for? Im just wondering is it same with whammy pedal, wah pedal.
btw thanks for the info. still downloading right now

go check out, honestly i think no one here knows

vox has changed its lineup for amosteverything nearly every few years, the vox tonelab series the original of anything "lab" or "tronix" has went through few changes now.

the new products also are the same.

hence if you really want to know how it works theres no substitute to going down to CK and trying it out

the old tonelabs use the expression pedals for everything, you can preset it to your pleasure. adjust gain, wah or volume depending on your needs. this might have changed later

I have the Stomplab 2G but have yet to check on the pedal part.

AFAIK it can be used to control most effects parameter, like the tonelabs before, and also can be used as a volume/wah pedal.

Maybe I will check tonight to see if they have a good whammy effect and let you know how it goes..

thanks!

My Digi Bad Monkey was rosak. Should i repair it or get new overdrive ?

What happened to it?

Hello lyn. Can you all explain me what is 'true bypass' in some pedal. what is the diff with another that did not have true bypass. Sorry, Im new in electric guitar stuff. thank you

pedal bad monkey tu kena tekan banyak kali baru hidup....

if you remove the battery cover, youll see that digitech pedals have a tiny switch that is pushed down by a rubber piece attached to the cover. Is there a problem there? That would be the simplest answer.

The above link is a good read. That said, although more than half my pedals are true bypass, I dont care about it myself. It's just another thing that guitarists obsess about and then never get round to actually playing guitar. World class performers use loads of pedals without this magical true bypass and you dont hear the crowd going "OMG THAT TONE SUCK! USE TRUE BYPASS IDIOT!"

I thought most of them use true bypass loopers to get around buffered pedals?

I have read those article but can you explain me with an easy form?

True bypass sometimes can be a blessing or a curse.

My understanding was that true bypass mods were popular because back then there were a lot of pedals with low quality buffers in pedals. This results in a change in tone that can be bad for some people, for example some will make your Telecaster indistinguishable from your LP etc.

True bypass circuits are implemented in the pedals to overcome this issue, as the signal was directly channeled to the output without going through the buffer and pedal circuits. This ensure to have the purest signals pass over the pedals when disengaged.

The problem with TB pedal is when you chain too many of them together, signal loss can happen without any buffer in between to buff up the signals, resulting in muddy, lack of high frequency tone. That is the reason people with many pedals will stuck in at least one or two buffered pedals somewhere in the pedal chain.

Another thing to note is a lot of quality pedals these days have good buffers that doesn't alter you tone that much. Still if you're craving for the purest guitar tone available, it's advisable to use less pedals and keep signal chain short (that includes cable).

If you have a few pedals, just try it out yourself. See if there is a difference when guitar plug direct in, in between several TB pedals and with some buffered pedals in between..

Cheers!

Btw, the true bypass pedal will produce diff sounds compare with non true bypass pedal? Haha Im still not get it. Sorry
