Zoom MS-70CDR Guitar Effects Pedal

Product Information

If you're decided to get your hands on a Zoom MS-70CDR, you could try the Musikhaus Thomann webshop. Overall, I would say that the navigation isn’t that difficult. It may be for others, though; especially for people who are used to only using individual stompboxes. Live Use

From a warm, vintage sound to a clear, modern tone, the MS-70CDR can do it all. Its powerful line-up of 86 diverse effects includes 16 chorus, 26 delay and 29 reverbs, including classic models from famous brands. In addition, there are more than a dozen flangers, tremolos, vibratos, phasers and other modulation effects'everything you'll ever need, all in one stompbox.Especially today's budget analog synths tend to have very few, if any, effects built-in. For example, Changing patches - I've seen some noodlers complain about the way you have to change patches on the unit–I guess their hands are busy–so if you're a guitar player you might not like this thing for live use if you need to play footsie with it. I've seem some third-party switches for it that solve that problem though. But for my setup the patch change buttons are preferred. That said, it is a bit of a drag scrolling through 137 FX but they're at least organized by category (reverbs, delays, etc.), which gets you there a lot faster. It's also very difficult to see what patch you are on because the display for the unit is so small. you would literally have to bend down to see it. the Zoom G1on is better in that sense. You can see the display very clearly while standing unless you have vision problems. With the CDR unit, you just can't read it if it is on the floor and you are standing. I sit while playing, so it is less of a problem for me. My Solution for Live Issues Considering that Zoom released these pedals nearly ten years ago, at a time when the only, truly respected, digital pedals on the market were the large, high-end units from Strymon and Empress, the humble MultiStomp still managed to make a real name for itself as an incredibly reliable way of achieving a lot of the same, far more expensive sounds, on a budget.

Use the Tap Tempo feature to set the tempo in real time to the rhythm of the song you're playing. Tap Tempo can also be used to set delay times and modulation effect frequencies. The MS-70CDR's three parameter knobs double as selection buttons. These can be used to open various menus, which allow you to tweak effects settings to your heart's content and to easily remove and/or rearrange effect parameters, turn the AUTO-SAVE function ON and OFF, recall patches, and more. You start building your own pedalboard from scratch. You get the basic pedals you need for your core sound/tone first [assuming you already know what you want]. For me it was a stepping stone into the world of pedals, but i have since sold it to buy dedicated pedals with higher quality output. When you start to pair it with high-end pedals you start to notice the difference in output pretty fast. And all of a sudden this brave little multitool that felt like magic before now started to feel like the weakest link in the chain, dragging the sound quality down.different chorus and modulation effects for guitar and bass are provided, including phasing, flanging, tremolo, vibrato, detuning, auto-panning, rotary speaker emulations, and pitch shifting—even an intelligent harmonizer that plays along in key. Vintage sounds include simulations of the TC Electronic Corona Chorus and Tri-Chorus, Boss CH-1 Super Chorus and CE-1 /CE-5 Chorus Ensembles, MXR M234 Analog Chorus, and Electro-Harmonix SmallClone, as well as the ADA flanger.

Like the sound of a patch, but want to tweak it more than the parameters will allow? Simple! Just add one of the many compressors, limiters, or parametric and graphic EQ's into the chain to give you even more control over the sonic flavour of your patch.

The MS-70CDR's cutting-edge DSP microchip performs 32-bit floating-point calculations, giving it the ability to create sophisticated studio-quality effects such as the 25 rich, dense reverbs and realistic spatial simulations found here. These rooms, halls, arenas, plates, and springs allow you to add depth and spaciousness to your sound. Vintage emulations include the TC Electronic Hall of Fame and Nova, as well as the Digitech RV-7, the Eventide Space, the Electro-Harmonix Holy Grail, and the strymon blueSky. I’ve been a “separate pedal” bloke for ages. Got this after watching some YouTube videos. It’s now replaced my pedal board! Intuitive, good quality sounds - an inspiring piece! There are expensive boutique pedals like those from Strymon and Eventide, there are great mid-price influenced by big name pedals from well-known manufacturers, and in many cases you get very close to
