This company creates complete foot pedal systems called <a href=\"http:\/\/line6.com\/products\/\" rel=\"nofollow external noopener noreferrer\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"ext-link\">Line 6<\/a>. This product came to my attention through a recording studio that I worked with for quite a while. They introduced me to the <a href=\"https:\/\/feverishthoughts.com\/guitar\/2007\/04\/03\/line-6-floor-pod\/\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">Line 6 Floor POD<\/a>. It&#8217;s a great system when all you have to do is to go into a studio and just plug in through the main board or a snake cable. The type of sounds this produces is just mind boggling, but it&#8217;s impractical to use when playing live.  <\/p><!--CusAds-->\n<p>A close second is the <a href=\"https:\/\/feverishthoughts.com\/guitar\/2007\/10\/06\/tonelab-le\/\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">Tonelab LE<\/a>. I had the honor of playing with a Brantford musician <a href=\"http:\/\/www.peeler.ca\/Welcome.html\" rel=\"nofollow external noopener noreferrer\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"ext-link\">Craig Peeler<\/a>, at a birthday party in Paris, Ontario one night, and he was using this system. It looks both simple to use, but it has this hidden complexity that I will need while attempting to find THAT sound I am looking for. Both the LINE 6 and this one allows you to adjust the sound in them and then program them into the pre-set buttons for fast recall when using the system live or just practicing.<\/p>\n<p>There are also endless products of single pedals that are designed specifically for one sound. The <a href=\"http:\/\/www.guitarlicksandtips.com\/2008\/11\/14\/vintage-morley-power-wah-fuzz-volume-pedal\/\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow external noopener noreferrer\" class=\"ext-link\">vintage Morley Power Wah\/Fuzz\/Volume pedal<\/a> or any BOSS pedals and a wide range distortion pedal would be a good start. <\/p>\n<p>I have ALWAYS been a firm believer that when you buy anything, you should get a product that is dedicated for one thing and one thing only! No bells and whistles please. This would be a slow and painful experience for me right now. It is the right way to go, but if CounterPoint comes to the conclusion that I am indeed worthy of playing with them, then I have to get my act in gear Chop, Chop!<\/p>\n<p>So for all yo musicians out there, which way should I go!<\/p>\n<!--CusAds--><p>Sing_cerly<br \/>\nClearly confused in Canada!<\/p>\n<div class=\"c354d1e329b235f1862b41000f5a4d18\" data-index=\"9\" style=\"float: none; margin:10px 0 10px 0; text-align:center;\">\n<br\/>\r\n<div align=\"center\">\r\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\"><!--\r\ngoogle_ad_client = \"pub-3375789278566919\";\r\n\/* Guitar_inpost_300x250 *\/\r\ngoogle_ad_slot = \"3631424768\";\r\ngoogle_ad_width = 300;\r\ngoogle_ad_height = 250;\r\n\/\/-->\r\n<\/script>\r\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\"\r\nsrc=\"http:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/show_ads.js\">\r\n<\/script>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<br\/>\r\n<?php if ( is_search() || is_single() || is_page() || is_paged() || is_category() || is_archive() ) { ?>\r\n<div align=\"center\">\r\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\"><!--\r\nch_client = \"dragonden\";\r\nch_type = \"mpu\";\r\nch_width = 468;\r\nch_height = 120;\r\nch_color_bg = \"FFFFFF\";\r\nch_color_title = \"7dc246\";\r\nch_color_text = \"333333\";\r\nch_non_contextual = 4;\r\nch_vertical =\"premium\";\r\nch_sid = \"guitarlicks_betweenposts2\";\r\nvar ch_queries = new Array( );\r\nvar ch_selected=Math.floor((Math.random()*ch_queries.length));\r\nif ( ch_selected < ch_queries.length ) {\r\nch_query = ch_queries[ch_selected];\r\n}\r\n\/\/--><\/script>\r\n<script  src=\"http:\/\/scripts.chitika.net\/eminimalls\/amm.js\" type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n<\/script>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<?php } ?>\r\n<br\/>\n<\/div>\n\n<div style=\"font-size: 0px; height: 0px; line-height: 0px; margin: 0; padding: 0; clear: both;\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I am getting to the point that I am contemplating either buying a dedicated\/complete foot pedal system or just gathering individual ones to use together.
