Hi Rig Doc. I’m looking at building a new rig. Taking your advice into consideration. Would you recommend using a Warick V16 as a power supply? I can’t find if it’s the type you recommend to eliminate low noise. Also looking at getting one of your vertex boost pedals as a boost/buffer. Is there one you would recommend over the other?

Alan, my pleasure. The Boss buffers just aren't comparable to the quality of buffers we can make now. They've remained relatively unchanged for about 30 years. They weren't designed to address today's pedal applications and are poor line drivers, have a lot of color, add noise, and attenuate your output for each series of Boss buffers you run through (almost every pedal of theirs has at least two buffers in series - a JFET input and BJT output).

Hi Mason, love your channel! will you use the pedalboard in stereo by placing the cab m before the collider, the collider would sound way better, no? An high quality direct box after the collider would assure you a balanced signal. What do you think? Thanks, Daniel

@VertexEffectsInc

3 жыл бұрын

Thanks for watching! It's still in mono through the Cab M, it's split in the interface/buffer so it's just two mono signals, one goes to the amp, one goes to the Cab M. I don't usually use them both, just one or the other - but I could use both if I wanted. I don't think it sounds better and I couldn't use it with my amp side if I did that. If you wanted to run the Collider in post, you'd be better off using the line output and feed it into something like the Cab Zeus to feed another channel on your mixer and use it more like a wet/dry type thing, or wet/dry/wet if you used it in stereo and it already has it's own parallel mixer and goes 100% wet/kill dry.

Hey Mason, recently purchased one of your pedalboards through Sweetwater, very cool getting your products available through them. Question about the riser screws, is there a thumbscrew available from you, or some kind of quick-latch device to put there instead of regular screws? I like to have it fastened because I like to pick the whole board up by the shelf, but I also need to access underneath at gigs without having to use a screwdriver. I'm sure I could find thumbscrews somewhere, but maybe you already have something for that? If not, maybe a good idea.. what size are those threads? Thanks man.

If you're soloing, staying at unity won't be very helpful, also in a track the difference of 3-4dB isn't that noticeable with a full mix, just like you have to make a gain way more saturated to sound like it has any noticeable gain in a track. Of course you can also use a volume pedal too as a pad if you need it.

@vinicioserafini5929

3 жыл бұрын

I always run my TS808 at really low gain last in the drive chain and that evens out a lot of the volume and gives all the drives a basic tone structure. Then I run my JHS Charlie brown still at very low gain when I need a crunch tone, a Havalina fuzz for fuzzy tones and the Charlie boosted with an Archer in front for leads. Believe it or not, if you keep the gain down on each stage, you can improve your rig's efficiency a lot and it helps even if you have to play each time through different backline amps because the 808 is acting as your drive section's master volume. Also, this way I'm able to control my Archer's huge huge volume range a lot better than running it on its own.

Hi nice work you do there.. you mention you don't like the boss buffers, would that include the buffers in the ES8 which I use for switching? If so, I'd be interested in a work around, pretty sure I can turn those buffers off if there's something better available. Thanks!

I don’t feel I need the height and want to cut down on the bulkiness as much as possible. Maybe it’s not as tall as it looks.

Hey rig doctor! Any thoughts on using the Cioks power supplies vs some of the ones you mention the most on your videos? Looking forward to the rig!

Hi Mason. Great, very informative content. I’ve read some complaints about hiss when activating the SA Collider? How say you?

I've not heard this issue, wonder if it's a PSU problem with a linear supply.

@@VertexEffectsInc There's some murmurs on the usual gear pages. I've seen a "shorts" video here on youtube demonstrating it, but with no discussion of their power, cabling etc. Good to know that you're not getting it. I have one on order.

Hi Mason, I really love all these videos, i'm learning a lot!! Just a question on the output buffer: I'm considering buying a strymon Iridium, do I still need the output buffer between my last pedal and the Iridium? because in this scenario there wouldnt' be any long cable after the output buffer and before the Iridium. cheers from italy

If the iridium is the amp you don’t need an output buffer
