What and how many modulations do you have and what do yo actually USE ???
(This is trem/phase/flange/chorus etc...)

Phase first and foremost.

If I could find a flange that didn't cost a million dollars and could replicate the tape flanging of the old Eddie Kramer / Jimi Hendrix recordings, I'd be in heaven.

I like modulation, but maybe only use it pretty sparingly. Trem followed by phase for me.

if delay is considered modulating, than that would be my most used.
next would be subtle vibe,
then phase, least used would be trem.

I loooooove me some modulation. delay & reverb the most. vibe, phase & chorus next. pitch shifting and ring mods too (only ring mods with good wet/dry control, i only like a tiny bit of it dialed in, too much can ruin a good sound for sure--i use the zvex ringtone), and every once in a while a little bit of flange. flange can be really irritating sometimes though. I have the Hartman analog flanger which is basically like a classic Electric Mistress. I love how subtle you can make it.

But yeah. I've basically always got some delay and reverb on.

forgot about my most over used ,,a leslie simulator.

i still hang onto a WH-1, and some sequencers too.

I love modulation and use it a lot. Lovetone dopelganger is a fave and has stayed on my board for many years. Mini Vibe and Moogerfooger Murf are always on the board too and I always have a little modulation on my delays (either EH DMM or Skreddy echo). I have a hartman flanger too but don't use it much. Great sounds though.

I never considered delay as modulation, but I use delay pretty much non-stop.

In terms of actual live usage- I have a vintage MIJ CE2 that I LOVE. My go to modulation tone for sure, but I'd love to get me a subtle phaser. and I NEED a reverb pedal and I haven't found one I like yet. I think I like the hardwire best of the on the market stuff at this point... meh.


Give me an analog chorus from MP. yummy. or I could get a analogman, those are awesome too.
