Re: Question about guitar pedals
I think the reason why the Guitar Digital Multi FX type units sound worse than the older pedals/delays is because they don't blend the original dry signal into the sound without converting into digital first.
The old '80's Digital Delays / Pedals for example kept some of the dry signal to blend into the outputs, some had wet/dry balance controls for this.
Best to split the guitar signal into 2 paths & combine them at the Amp &/or Recording stage.
Mind You most Guitar FX units even expensive ones still have that "Wasp in a Jar" sound for Overdrive/Distortion type sounds! I usually bypass those& use an old Pedal/Sansamp GT2 or similar instead!
