Wow, does this mean that I inspired a trend or something?
I'm glad I nixed my idea of selling my EX-7 for one of the RP units. Another classic "If you're really not sure what to do, wait for it" situations.

Exactly what I did.Originally Posted by marnold
I've been looking at them ever since they came out. I can't remember how many times I watched the video on the Digitech web site. I just wasn't sure about the sound quality after using and hearing other Digitech products though. They got this one pretty close to perfect. Your reviews helped me make a decision and I'm glad I finally did.

I'm definitely getting rid of some pedals. The wahs are really good. The tremolo sounds great too but the Chicken Salad has it's own thing going on as well. It's going to be hard to decide that one. The wahs sound as good or better than my 535Q. Go figure.

I've already sold 2 of the 3 pedals due to the EX-7. The last pedal is pretty much sold by the end of the coming week. The sold pedals were great you bet but this unit saves pedal board space and for me that's a plus.
This is one dang cool unit......go Digitech.

Justa to clarify something I mentioned in second best pedal...
I finally found a place this thing works fine on setting #3 for me thru a NS-2..
Actually, I removed some other pedals.. removed some cables that seemed questionable (I put them together would be the main reason)...
Putting the EX7 before the NS-2 has worked just fine for me.. I have an A/B box to split to both amps so all is well..
I dunno..may have been me all along.. but it just didn't seem right in the loop of the NS-2 on that one setting...
Both the NS-2 and this EX7 are keepers one way or the other! :

Hey Justa I liked those Space Station swells. We can do something with that in stereo on our next tour.
About your comments on the EX-7 and your pedal chain, in conjunction with the NS-2. I haven't put my EX-7 on my board yet because my Cry Baby is still there but I plan to put it first in line where the Baby sat. That will go first then I figure to put my TU-2 tuner, then the Micro Amp THEN those guys into the NS-2 which will loop my distortions/overdrives and EVH Phase 90 then loop back into the NS-2...then finally out from the NS-2 over to the delay then to the RC-2 Loop Station then into the BLUES JUNIOR YEAHHHH. : As you have discovered it probably does best out of the noise suppresion loop so the cool delay swells from the Space Station aren't cut off etc.
Here's some personal comments on the pedal. I realllly like the Vox wah setting. My effect knobs are pretty much straight up at noon on all three of them and as I switch between effects they all seem to give me the sounds I want to hear so I don't move them. The sound of the Univibe itself was worth the price of the pedal. That effect is super! The pedal gets smiles an nods from me on the other effects too...even though I'm not a big flange fan...it's still cool that it's there and it sounds great. I also have a good compromise on the knob settings for all the distortion effects. I basically tweaked the knobs for distortion on the Univibe/Big Muff PI setting to generate a good overdrive that isn't over the top and the distortion knob settings for that work well with all the others. When I first got the unit and turned on the distortions along with the effects the distortions were wayyy over the top. Now they're balanced just right. It does take awhile to learn what the knobs do and to tweak them to get the right sounds you want but when you finally do it's fantastic. I am very pleased with this one pedal and it's already replaced 3 of them on my board! :

So! What about the time I HAD to get that Vox AD30VT! That was all your fault remember! And it was Nelskie's fault for me just having to get that Peavey Classic 30 and it was Justa's fault for me having to get that NS-2 pedal and it was Voodooman's fault for letting me see his '56 Goldtop!!!

I've noticed that since we've been talking about the EX7 that they have become much harder to find so you are lucky if you can find one. Also, someone on another forum said that the prices are going up at the end of January and after that they are going to quit making them.
Oh I'm so evil.: (insert Devil smiley here) None of the above is true. I'm just pestering Robert...cause that's just what we do.
