I’ve had the Zoom MS-50G for several years, and it’s pretty much the same but with amp and cab models for guitar and bass. You can’t beat it for the price and portability.

Great video, and I was totally thrilled that the MS-70CDR is getting some much deserved love. I think it's awesome, despite some idiosyncrasies. There is another pedal I bought a couple of years ago, which is another HUGE bang for the buck and sounds amazing, but gets little to no attention on the interwebs. It's the Mooer Audio Ocean Machine. It's a dual delay + reverb with a lot of bells and whistles. I would LOVE it if you did a video on that thing....

I really love the microfreak. It is my on the sofa doodling in headphones while my husband watches basketball synth. The microfreak is like Plaits on steroids. the UI is fun and all those piano lessons from elementary school are still useful. For effects I sometimes dump it straight into clouds for some old-school eurorack granular fun. I also have the Strymon starlab in the rack. What is weird is I have many efx pedals for my bass and guitars, but i usually do not run my synths through them. I'm not sure why but between instruments I don't share efx. Hmm.

I do not have a microfreak but every time I hear it it's amazing you can get one new for 350 bucks. The zoom pedal isn't perfect but there's plenty of boutique reverb that aren't much better, cost twice as much and aren't as flexible. Add a distortion pedal and maybe a compressor and volume pedal and it can turn a pedal board into a much smaller setup than some people use.

@robotparker Год назад

I actually use three MS-70CDR's in my shoegaze band, where I play guitar and a Microfreak. the first one is at the very start of my guitar pedalboard, and I've loaded it up with a chain that includes a noise suppressor, a gate, some EQ, and some light compression. if you hold down the foot pedal for a moment, it enters tuner mode. so this one pedal takes the place of 4-5. the next one I use as Zoom intended. once I have a chain of effects that works for a particular song, I save it under the name of the song so I can easily swap back and forth when I'm playing live. the third one I use with my Microfreak. I modified the firmware so that it also has some of fuzzes and distortions from the MS-50G. they make the Microfreak sound so fat and warm!

@Stadsjaap 2 года назад

Well, yes and no. I call the Freak the Stephen Hawking of synths. Great brain, but the chassis... The physical instrument is clearly made from the cheapest possible components. On mine the headphone jack went in the first 6 months. And it's an import, so not worth sending back. Still. It's one of very few synths that I would replace on the same day when it goes completely bust.

When I started getting into pedals for bass I started with the Zoom MS-60B. I don't really need it for bass anymore, I got an extensive pedal board, so now it lives next to my Korg Monologue. I will probably buy a Microfreak this summer and hook it up to that. These pedals are far from perfect, but they do so much. I think the real magic in them is there being so many options that, even some aren't great, there's always another one and you can combine several of them for whole new sounds (sadly the MS-60B only allows up to four though). The real weakness of these is the drive and distortion options though, the MS-70CDR doesn't even have any. I paired mine with a really cheap, but good overdrive that goes into distortion. I'd recommended others to do the same.

I got the broadly similar MS-100BT, one of the most annoying pedals ever made. Not for what it is, but for what it should have been. The BT stands for bluetooth, and when they announced it, I was very excited about what they'd use bluetooth for: library system, real time control and patch edit from a phone, etc.? Nope, it was used *only* to buy and download more FX. What a criminally lost opportunity. In the event, I picked one up cheap, and shortly after Zoom pulled the plug on the idea and made *all* the paid FX free, making it a mega bargain. Quality is variable, and editing not at all intuitive, but it's a fun little pedal.

Wow you could make a whole movie soundtrack with this!

@hanspeters1796 2 года назад

Caution. This pedal always passes the dry signal to the output! There is no chance to get only the wet signal. If you have a send-return-setup, this pedal is not for you.

@VenusTheory 2 года назад

True and false - it's only on certain effects that this happens. I have no idea why they did things that way, it's a bit infuriating at times. But, given the price point, I find it pretty hard to gripe with this pedal too much.

@hanspeters1796 2 года назад

@@VenusTheory I read the same thing, that it's only on certain effects. But on my unit with all effects I tried I get the full dry signal no matter what, and even if I turn the effect off.

one of my favorite pedals, both on synth and guitar.

@jjrusy7438 2 года назад

Good call for gear that most people can actually afford. I got an MS70 after Waveformer(youtuber) worked insane magic with his 3 MS70's. I usually dont chain over 3 effects and it behaves very well. Glad you mentioned the real cherry on top: that software that enables the MS70 to have basically any patch zoom has created loaded onto it. I have not even needed to worry about that yet. what is in there is almost too much. another crazy pedal you might like is the oceans 12 stereo reverb from EHX. it has 2 separate engines and a ton of combinations. BUT it is like $260. BUT still cheaper than the real nice pedals. PS. The freak sounds off the chain when controlled from a large keyboard. mono or paraphonic, you just cant play that keyboard beyond simple notes and doing noises. I made a demo video demoing several factory patches on the freak, but played from a yamaha MX88 as the controller. sections 3 and 4 dont even sound like it is the freak, but it is all 1 track, some with some reverb from the mixer ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-unwbP8bXxMs.html

Screeching: I bet it’s artifacts produced by the algorithms somewhere in the same place of the spectrum, that when your effects in the chain combines them up, they are reinforced to the point that they are noticeable. The de-noise works well because of this.

I just ran my Korg Monologue through my Zoom B1 Four and Palmer Pocket Amp Bass. Every effect worked like intended. I had my eye on this pedal before that, but after daring to try the pedals I had with the Monologue, I lost the need to get this. Blows my mind how suitable the stuff from Zoom is with all the gear I can think of. Quality content BTW, helped me to make my mind with the Modal Cobalt 5s, which was the synth in mind when I started to test and mess about with B14, Palmer Pocket Amp and synths.

I have this little unit and haven't even cracked the surface with it. It does so much and possibilities seem endless. I got it for the shimmer and backhole FX for synth but as learning guitar as well it seemed liked a good starter pedal as you can checkout different pedals FX . If not sure what the FX are at first. Rather than buy separate pedal everytime. For £85 British poundingtons it was a no brainer. I use mine through the FX send on mixing desk.
