Cool SS! What made you decide to get that one? You tried in a store or something or you heard some kick-*** clips somewhere?
Oh those Germans with their engineering and design... they got me... g.a.s attack late in the afternoon.....
I just HAD to order a 600 dollar direct record preamp pedal from them... *sigh* the pain my wife will deliver upon my humble body and soul....I better get her some flowers...

I can't say that I've given up on a flanger cause I've never liked the effect either. I also can't say the same about Tremolo. I hate them both equally. - Tone2TheBone 2009

The Law of Gravity is nonsense. No such law exists. If I think I float, and you think I float, then it happens.

I havent tried it, and I havent heard much clips of it either. But I have sold a lot of H&K stuff in the past (when working in a music store) and the reviews on Harmony Central tells me that this is H & K at its best. Sounds pretty much like their top end tube amps according to a friend that has the first version (which I´ve tried and liked a lot). This one is all that the MK1 had with a upgraded integrated Red Box ProOriginally Posted by Robert

It's must be the knob count - I mean 10 knobs on a pedal. :
With that many I would expect it to be able to save presets
But what do I know ?

It does sound very nice. Looks gorgeous and very well built.

I think it's the fact that it's a shiny object that it gets my attention

That's right SS sold his Tonelab & his Pod.Originally Posted by Justaguyin_nc
He's a Big Game Hunter on the prowl for the ellusive perfect tube-like direct tone.
sssssshhhhhh, he seems to think he's got it in his sights now....sssshhhhh.

Haha very funny... Grrrr..
The PodXT and the Tonelab are two GREAT sounding direct record units. No doubt about that. My personal problem is that I love to buy/sell/trade stuff and I love to test out new gear.
