I just scored a two timer for 90 bucks because it had been used as a display model in some guitar shop. Ebay is a wonderful thing.

Any good? Anyways, imapiratearg, which area are you in? That could have something to do with the lack of BBEs.
imapiratearg:
Vermont. Location could certainly be a factor.

Yeah, that's what I'm guessing. I'm in Alberta, and we have all sorts of effects here. One place even has Z.Vex :laugh:

Unplug it from the power. Press and hold the footswitch, then plug the power in. Keep holding the footswitch until the status light stops blinking. Then rock the treadle (thats what the expression part is called) back and forth. This sets the range on it.
Do that and you should be ready to go.

Tried that, and something weird is happening. Everytime I do, rocking the treadle (thanks for giving me the proper name lol i'm a pedal n00b) does what the knob does: lights up the lights for the modes. I'm doing it wrong, aren't I.
No, that's exactly what should be happening.
As it goes though the modes you're setting the sweep of the treadle.
1. step on the switch while plugging the unit in
2. release switch when led blinks
3. press pedal all the way forward then all the way back
4. press switch again to exit calibration
If you do that and it is still acting weird, PM me.

It's pretty good, but the bad thing is I turned down an old Boss CE-2 for it. I was 13 and was like "COOL THIS THING MAKES WHOOSHY NOISES HOW MUCH." I've seen a CE-2 at another place though (one that sells Z.Vex too w00t), could replace my CE-5...
--- Quote ---RC2 is great too, but having a footswitch thats bigger than the real pedal is is ridiculous.
You should do the footswitch mod to it http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oU8daIYOTeY .

I agree with that, mod looks neat.
Looked up a video of the Gristleizer, holy shit (even if I'm not a big TG fan), that's awesome. Also, I decided to put my wah before the Muff today, and I'm keeping it on my board for sure now. I got some neat sounds out of it. Also, sorry for tl;dr post.
