Individual FX or stick with g-system?

Post by m3at »

Considering selling the g-system and going individual pedal route. yes/no? fx I use are delay, verb, wah, whammy, and sometimes chorus/phase...

The fx I use the most are delay and verb. The others I use occasionally.

If I go the pedal route, what suggestions do you have for at the very min, delay, verb, and wah.

I'm actually leaning the other way right now.

What advantage do you think you will have going back to sngle pedals?

Id stick to the Gsystem! Patch controls, tap tempo and its has enought stuff to keep things experimental.

Less signal path loss also from the rack unit vs many floor pedals and long cables

This is what I've dealt with in the past going down the stomp box road. If I did do this I would use my delay/verbs in the loop of the mark iv and then obviously everything else in front. The Mark IV has its own pedal that I could use to turn the loop on/off so that's another option.

Don't sell the g system. Buy pedals as you can. There are pros and cons of both.


I like multis bc you can switch from hugely different patches quickly.
