I don't have this pedal, am i gonna survive?

Any word on this? They now have external control for brightness and overall level, those were inside before. Plus also an internal control for bass cut that was on previous version.

Edit: would also like to have some insights compared to the Retrosonic take on the EM. i read some people preferred the Retrosonic saying the pastfx is alot brighter even with the bright knob all the way down and that the bright knob affects also the dry signal. it's hard buying a pedal without playing it and relying on YouTube demos...

NPD - Hardwire CM-2 SC-2 TL-2

The 3 analog dirts from the digitech hardwire line:
TL-2 metal zone clone with toggle to fuzzy circuit
SC-2 i think it's a kind of Marshall in a box, toggle between lower and higher gain circuits
CM-2 a tube screamer/ bad monkey with higher gain toggle with less mid hump

Any digital chorus/flanger with Analog Dry Through?

I have a Boss CH-1 Super Chorus (analog version) and a Mooer e-lady onboard. Also have an Ibanez DFL that is digital (don't know if it has analog dry through).
With all of these units i have a hard time dialing in desired volume with the desired blend of the modulated signal, especially when combining with dirt pedals (i have dirts before and after modulations, into a clean amp). I tried with not much luck to find a digital chorus/flanger with analog dry through to have more control of the gain and eq of the effect, plus it would be nice to explore different choruses like tri-chorus, dimension, polychorus and others. I think i read somewhere it's a problem to have analog dry through with chorus/flanger because of phase issues?
I know i will probably won't hear/feel any difference with full digital pedals but my rig is analog and i prefer to keep it that way.. i recently got a Source Audio Nemesis delay that now have analog dry through and i really like it with my clean signal staying intact.

I have an option to buy a used PastFx stereo chorus PX65, a clone of the DOD FX65, with added blend and volume controls but from demos it sounded a bit too bright to my taste and i lacks eq control that i would like to have and i'm used to with my CH-1.
Another consideration is the J.Rockett Aqueous chorus but i can't tell if it's digital/has analog dry through.

So is there a stereo digital modulation lab device with analog dry through?

I'm an analog snob what can i do

Hardwire reverb/chorus - analog dry through?

I was wondering if the RV7 and CR7 Have analog dry through mixed in when the pedal is active or it's all converted to digital? I found very little info on that.

BOSS CH-1 Volume mod?

Hi i have a BOSS CH-1 chorus pedal (analog version) that i like. My problem is the more i turn up the e.level the chorus signal turns up resulting in an overall volume boost. I would like to have the option to control the overall output level to be able to get heavy chorus sound at unity gain level. Is it possible? Some pedals have that option like the new j.rockett aqueous with mix and preamp knobs but i was wondering if i can mod the CH-1 to get the same function.
Thanks!

I really like the sound of my Boss CH-1 chorus (analog version) and Jam Ripple phaser but i would love to have more tone sculpting tools in them. Looking for pedals with more knobs that could replace them but still sound close.

Chorus with overall mix control - when i turn on the CH-1 and want a more pronounced effect with the E.LEVEL up, my whole signal gets drastically louder, especially after dirt (i have my modulations sandwiched between two dirt sections). A chorus with an overall mix control would be much easier to dial in.

Phaser with more than one knob - the Ripple has a great sound but i miss trying different options like feedback, depth, blend, stage selection.

My requirements, other than having a similar sound to my current pedals, is that the pedals will be analog (i know digital stuff is good but i rather keep it only in the delay/reverb section while retaining my analog dry signal), and that they won't take more space than my current pedals.
Also, the CH-1 works as a buffer after my wah+tuner and first drive section, that are all true bypass, so a buffer would be nice but not must. i could just get a dedicated buffer and stick it beneath the board.

Thanks!
