@@LeonTodd We need to talk, brother! 2023 was shit and unfortunate. You wouldn't believe what happened, But like the Scorpions sang... The Best is Yet to Come! Onwards and Upward
Great stuff as always! While that time period was an uncool era in the west for stereo rack stuff here in Japan it was opposite with Visual Kei boom (think continuation of 80s glam rock evolving without grunge ever being a thing.) So you had bands like LUNA SEA and MALICE MIZER showing off their rack rigs up to the 00s.
That's a very cool sounding piece of gear that I never heard about. Personally, I think the TC Electronic 1210 would give that a run for its money because it's just as lush but has a simpler user interface. Just my opinion mate. Great video demo though, it has me thinking about it 👍
Was that Mondo Rock's Come Said The Boy you were playing at one point? Banging tune if it was. All of the obligatory Rush and Police riffs covered too, which I appreciated. And Pleiades.
I was about to ask and then you more or less answered it, but besides maybe the processing power, is there any substantial difference between this unit and the SE70? Since I already have one of those...
I got this the mentioned Sony, a kurzweil rumor and a dl8000r for basically nothing a few years back. I wish id still have them weird uo. I eally wish my fm3 could do the shimer chorus. I miss that Sound.
@@LeonToddThat would be great! Quite hontestly if it would not be for your blocks i would have likely sold the unit. Now i am finde but initially it had quite a learning curve. So thanks for sharing!!
*DETUNE SHIMMER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Do it like I do the SE-70! Run 2 of them and stereo series and use the second one as the DETUNER and the first one as the chorus, flange, phasor!*
I'm a self-confessed chorus slut - it'll never go out of fashion for me!! There were some nice chorus tones in that thing. But to be honest, for me, the CE-1 is the original and the best.
Right on Leon... Ill be at the end of the dock waitin for you with my 💯 foot Lamborghini cigarette boat stocked full of cigars.. make sure you bring my favorite 🐈 .... 🌏
Leon, im surprised you got down from your steel horse and left the Marshalls gun behind in the saddle to hit all of Roland's sdx banks and made it back alive with some heavy bank rolls .. sure sounds good but now you're wanted dead or alive mate and its a long swim to the Mexican border.. 😂 😺❤ 🌏.. stuff the sdx330 in your saddle and make a run for it and hopefully we will see you next time. ! 😂 Cheers mate

Vintage rack gear is my love language.
THIS
Chorus, the greatest effect ever created.
That wave chorus on the Heaven Above lick is one of the most glorious things I've ever heard. Molten gold.
Rivers of Gold!
Leon Todd, Roland, and Chorus. Three things that go together 🤘
Lush! Hope you are doing well my friend

Whooo old school rack time! Love these rack attacks.
Hello @Line6 this would be a great update for Helix and HX Effects
Such a good review. This is a great and very capable processor. Big vote up, plus you played Distant Early Warning, one of my favs! Thanks!
Wow. I actually had a Roland guitar processor from this time period. Brings back memories.
Yup, that dimensional expander took me to other spaces and expanded my mind.
oh my, that detune chorus on clean ... instant Rush sound
Love this so far gonna have to look for one of these to try out.
Leon's guitar playing face, It is awesome.
Love a good oldskool chorus. That sounds incredible at Phase Chorus
YES! Please DO bore us with the chor-us!!! ❤🙌🔥🤘🏼I’m here for this ALL day brother! Love it!
Nice piece of kit. Knew someone who had one he bought new back in the day.😊
Looking for one of these 240vac to go with an SRV-330 and SDE-330. Be good if you could demo the RSP-550, Leon. Underrated unit.
Ah I forgot about the RSP! Definitely keen to try that
Can't believe the SDX 330 has been around 30 years. Man, I'm getting old. And get off my lawn!
I need to try the SDE now
ambience chorus + dist = Faith no more "ashes to ashes"
The rack version of the Pearl-pink Boss DC3 Digital Dimension pedal :)

You got it! We cover that with Ragdoll too
@@LeonTodd nice one!
Nice. Roland / Boss make some cool FX.
Cool demo from hard to find model 😁 hope you'll find boss SX-700, I think it's SDX SDE SRV 330 crammed into 1 affordable unit 🔥👍😎
So keen to try that one
I was about to ask and then you more or less answered it, but besides maybe the processing power, is there any substantial difference between this unit and the SE70? Since I already have one of those...
SE-70 has the Wave Chorus which is rad - there's a few algos on this it may lack though?
Snuck in some Mike Landau I'm Buzzed riffage, cool!
It had to be done with chorus this glorious
You are the chorus guru!!!! I'd like what you'd do with Jackson audio new wave chorus.
So keen to try that one

I'm going to try match it and add it to my blocks library

Ooooh, I love me some greasy grease.
That is pretty darn greasy.
I had one these and sold it for next to nothing. Yeah I regret it of course

Chorus sucks unless it doesn't. It's good when it's good, usually in other people's hands.
