Space Station

[zepolant]

I just can't get enough of this pedal. Does anyone else own one? I like to really dial in my Phaser and use any of the synth effects (usually Number 6). The sounds that you can get are pretty damn amazing. Synth has enough of a delay on it's own so not much use for the pedal on that one, and too much verb can really bleed the sound to death, but if controlled you can get some pretty bizarre feedbacks as well. Not to much on the highend either. Just wanted to share.:rolleyes:

I know nobody has one.. and theres at elast 2 or 3 others on here too

I love mine. I mainly use the synth sounds with a generous portion of more delay and heaps of reverb ... using a volume pedal to swell in the notes.

I also really dig the pixelators with an ebow and finding those spots with the expression where the note crackles and breaks apart.

Wayjurn has one too

Hell yes, and it's the most awesome thing ever. The synths are great, I like some of the warp delays and the sample hold too. I've got 2 sample hold boxes now.. psycho. :D :D :D

How about a DIGITECH SPACE STATION club, Sky? ;)

[zepolant]

Nice a DIGITECH SPACE STATION club. Suhweet. I've only had mine about 2 months now. A friend of mine has one and I just couldn't get enough of it. So Ebay I went. Lost the first one I bid on by seconds. Then another came up many bids with the "Buy It Now" option. $220, but it was brand new.

I haven't played too much with the other effects, but I do like the pixelators to, hell I love everything on it.

using a volume pedal to swell in the notes.


I may have to add my volume pedal back to try that out. Sounds interesting.

[Wayjurn]

Mine was a steal.. $150 at a local place.. brand new. :D

There gone? I just saw two on there the other day. Nope one leftDigitech Space Station (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2551686310&category=41419) They don't make them anymore, but plenty of people have them and are always selling them. Good luck!

i have one, and like it more and more. its finally made its way into my rig with my band. i was very lucky and found one on ebay for like 80 bux. but that was a couple months back. unique pedal. the synths are fantastic.

[zepolant]

Hey Coldbuggin is that your band link on the bottom there? I like it a lot.

[whirlaway]

i had one. sold it beacuse i found w/out a way to manipulate the sounds it would serve not too much purpose. it's not like it's a pedal you can use for everything, you have to be minimal or you will sound like a dumbass.

besides that, it was fun for a bit.

But the treadle does allow you to manipulate the sounds to a degree. Yeah, you can't use it for most stuff, but the stuff that it can be used for is very interesing and unique. I won't sell mine, it's one of those "Hey, how did you get *that* sound?" pieces of gear.

I'm increasingly curious about the Space Station (even though I'm not a Digitech fan). Sounds like it could be a lot of fun. Are they really out of production these days?

Of course, I'm wondering how many noisemaker pedals I really need -- I've already got a Death by Audio TSA, which kicks ass. But hell, guitar weirdness is a lot of fun.

Yeah, they've been out of production for several years.

Ah. Well, maybe I'll bid on the one Zepolant pointed out.

Ever notice how big name brands always seem to discontinue their best pedals? Why would they do that?

Seriously. I was scoping out their "Reverborator" from that same family of pedals. It kicked ass. It is a shame that, seems to happen way to often. I'm thinking of trying to buy another Space Station incase mine ever breaks.

Because not many people realize how cool those pedals are until after they're gone.
