Strymon Timeline with Mark V.

[jckessler]

Anyone else here running a Strymon timeline with MarkV? I just got one for xmas and its great. I put it in the loop. Sounds amazing.

I played around with it for about 2 hours last night and I did have a blast with all of the patches and the looper.

I always end up on a slap-back type delay for a general sound. Just wanted to see what other settings anyone else was using with their timeline.

Seems to me a midi foot controller is a necessity to get the full capabilities of the timeline as well.

I have a Nova delay instead of the Timeline. But I do have the Strymon Mobius and - yeah you can get lost for hours with the thing. Congrats on the Timeline. Strymon makes great products.

Sounds great in the loop to me and I've always hated using loops in other amps so far.

@Deijavoo,,,i just got a timeline on friday,but only had about 10 minutes to play with it so far...this thing is amazing...im running mine so far through the front...definately will post an update when i get more familiar with it......your set up looks great,,,mobius will be my next pedal,,,want to keep it simple,,,im comming from a huge rack full of stuff with my 2:90 rig to "back to the floor" with the MKV.........what is the eq pedal you have in the corner...i see you have everything going to the back?

No it's Korg poly tuner, POG 2 and Mobius in front, then Timeline and Big Sky in the loop. I normally hate using loops but this one seems to work for me and I really can't explain why. I normally use all sorts of percussive stuff with delays in the front end.

Love Strymon gear.

i was running a g major in the loop but didnt like it too much....but will try the timeline in there..what is the switch next to the tuner...

There isn't one mate, maybe the cable end?

I used to use a buffer at the front end but honestly no need now it's just a few going in front now. Plus Strymon have awesome buffers if you decide to use them.

That little black foot pedal is the poly tuner.

Korg Pitchblack Poly Tuner
