Hey folks
Not really sure if this is in the correct place, still a complete noob to these forums but i had a quick question.
As it stands i have a Bugera 333 amp, plus a Marshall 1960BV stereo cab.
I read an article about how John Petrucci gets his live tones and i'll quote a section here.
"Petrucci, "I use a 7ms [delay] setting [between left and right speakers] on pretty much every sound. [Editor’s note: This is a technique utilizing a delay setting whereby one-half of the signal (either the entire left or right channel) is delayed by a slight amount in order to create the illusion of depth and space between the speakers. The delay is set 100% wet with 0% feedback so that the entire signal for that channel is delayed by the set amount with no dry (non-delayed) signal or repeats present]. I don’t really use that [2290] for echo. Instead, I use a TC Electronic M3000 unit for all of the delays. "
I was wondering how i would be able to replicate the 7ms split between both sides of my cabinet as my amp is a Mono head and i dont really understand how you would delay the sound between each side. I guess it wouldnt be as simple as sticking a delay pedal between the 2 outputs on my cabinet as this would mess up the load etc.
Any help on this would be VERY much apreciated as i would like to give it a try to give a little thickness to the sound.
Thanks in advance.
