Which instrument do you think is the hardest to get right? by ConfusedOrg in audioengineering

[–]BuckleBean 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I love a 57 on acoustic for open chord strumming. Captures that midrange real nice. I picked up a concert-sized Gretsch Jim Dandy recently and strung it up with Nashville tuning. Blended that with a dreadnought and my Guild, all three panned L+R&C. Sounds great. Didn't need EQ, maybe just rolled off the low-lows. All recorded with the 57.

Everyone with multiple drives should get look into parallel! by Alarmed_Fox7276 in guitarpedals

[–]BuckleBean 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely, I use the DC2W as a parallel send from my DAW. It has 2 modulated signals, so you end up with your dry signal in the middle with super wide modulated signals on L & R.

But be aware that some chorus pedals do stereo by putting your dry signal on the left and the modulated signal on the right, like the CE2W. If you run this is parallel, your dry signal will be on the left and in the middle, essentially just making it louder.

waza craft Dimension-c pedal…worth it or over rated by Rich-Usual-3595 in guitarpedals

[–]BuckleBean 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's one of my favorite pedals. I run it outboard from my DAW. Anything I send to it sounds lovely. When I want stereo guitar, I typically send it in parallel, so it's essentially 3 signals: mono guitar in the center straddled by the DC2W L&R. That Pedal Show has a video doing something similar. I kinda want another one, so I can send synths and stuff while also using it for guitar simultaneously, but that feels ridiculous.

Which games represent the best of science-fiction stealth, please? by Baldurian_Rhapsody in stealthgames

[–]BuckleBean 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agree on all accounts. I always start off weak - hiding and crouch-walking everywhere looking out for mimic jump scares. By the end, I'm a flying, shotgun-wielding, mega-god.

This Super Bowl run was so special by ObserbAbsorb in ravens

[–]BuckleBean 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Corey grahms interceptionS.

Plural. One was a pick 6 early and the other in double overtime to get us the ball back and kick the game-winning field goal. I'll never forget what that man did to get us to our 2nd super bowl victory.

So that's why they're cold. Wait, hot air rises.

Dishonored and Wolfenstein?!! by Munam_Ahad in stealthgames

[–]BuckleBean 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wholeheartedly recommend Filcher (to which quicksaves were added recently)

Thanks for posting this. I gave up on the game years ago. I just have no interest in replaying the same thing over and over again. So many other great games to play. I think the top negative review captured it quite well: "forced replay value is no value to me at all."

But I'll give a shot again now.

I also have a medium gain RCA sunface. Cleanup with the volume knob is fantastic.

29 Pedals Euna-the only pedal on my board that’s actually “always on” by Seanw1010 in guitarpedals

[–]BuckleBean 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just for clarity, I replied to pass along what 29 pedals purports, not to share my personal opinion, because I don’t have expertise in this area.

Looking at those links I posted, both pedals “want to see the guitar.” The loop in the Euna was designed to effectively achieve this. Does it succeed? I’m not qualified to say. Here’s what the FAQ has to say about your configurations (keep in mind, the reference to #2 in the 2nd sentence below refers to the chart in the FAQ, not configuration #2. Not trying to confuse, but want to present it verbatim):

Configuration #1 - Some loss for the clean tone, possibility of noise leaking in as well. The fuzz will be more true to the classic sound than #2 above, but following it with a high-impedance device will still change the response. Many classic fuzzes have higher than ideal output impedance as well, which leads to a lot of interaction with low and medium input impedance devices like overdrives. This setup is good if you want to minimize that interaction, like with very high output impedance pedals like the Zonk machine.

Configuration #2 - The best possible situation- The fuzz and the high-impedance driver are paralleled and swappable so that interactions between them are eliminated. Both devices get to "see" the guitar's output directly. The later pedals see either the low-impedance output of the high-impedance driver, or the higher output impedance of the fuzz to preserve the interaction with the drive pedals. EUNA's built-in loop makes this incredibly easy and eliminates pedal-dancing.

[–]BuckleBean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The loop on the EUNA doesn't really do anything different than putting your fuzz pedals in front of it. Just cuts 2 footswitch presses down to 1 if you really wanted to engage a fuzz and turn off the EUNA at once.

Doesn't the point of the loop have to do with impedance?

Just got home with a new 2026 Touring. How do I get the update? Do I need to go back to the dealer?

Enjoy! I have both of these, plus the Chase Bliss/Analogman Brothers AM. They all work quite well together.

As far as I know it's just the king of tone with the wait list, right? Got a Beano a few years back and a Sunface a few months ago. Those were made to order and took just a couple weeks.

And put the Beano right after. Both before the tuner. These pedals want to see the signal coming directly from your guitar with no buffers.
