Re: steve riley accordian sounds

i;ve only seen him use one thing
a phaser pedal
he has it set for kind of a subtle effect
it;s some standard guitar stomp-box thing

i could tell you what *i* use
it does what 25 stomp boxes could do
kind of complicated though

Re: Re: steve riley accordian sounds

well why dont ya go ahead and tell me I can handle it

Re: Re: Re: steve riley accordian sounds

ok
ha ha

boss VF-1

which is the updated version of the
boss SE-50, which is fine too

the older one is harder to program, has
a few less features, the only new festure
i really
wanted was auto-wah-wah

the SE-50s though, get old and their displays
fade out

but
what can i do with it..?
flanger
phaser
wah wah, either auto or with foot pedal
a 'louder' setting for solos on the bass side
octave doubler [simulates a lower
bank of reeds, good for cheap chinese
3 rows]
key changer - play one key, comes out another
[though it;s weird if you can still
hear the acoustic version too]
chorus
distortion
leslie effect
gated flanger [weird robot thingy]
reverb
wet sound [slight detuning]
spiraling ascending effects for end of a song
old AM radio sound
more

some of them can be combined


a ton of things that are not that useful for
accordion

things for sound board use, or for electric
guitar, or vocals

Re: Re: Re: Re: steve riley accordian sounds

not even sure where to find a VF-1
music stores don;t seem to carry them
i got one on ebay for about $165 which is
typical
the SE-50s seem to go for $50-100
be sure the display is ok
