I just bought the M9 for the second time after many years, i only use it for modulations, what i find great in this machine is the way it works and the possibility to have 6 pedals in one scene, it is really a one of a kind multieffect, i think it's got very good delays, verbs and mods but what made me buy it again is the layout, also another cool thing is that you if you need two effects but not together you can place them one above the other and one will switch off as soon as you switch on the other with one push, to me this is a very nice features, i paid mine second hand but like new 190 euro, not bad.
Haha, that would have been great, maybe with the new helix hx effects you can but i like to have my single pedal as well so i think the m9 it's a great tool....
Hey man I'm thinkin of buying this too just for the effects as I have a good distortion tone with from my tube screamer and distorion pedal. Would this change my tone alot if I'm just planning to use tremelo. Reverb etc...? And where in the chain do you put this at?
Yes it is a very nice pedal, I had one too. But at some point the FX chip broke down and there are no spair parts for it. Damn !! I tried to buy an other M9 but expensive and difficult to find on second hand market. So I bought a POD HD bean. Almost all the effects of the M9 are the same in the POD HD !! And in combination with a Line6 Shortboard you can run 8 effects at the same time, or switch on/off.
It’s great for inserting some versatility into a pre-existing analog pedalboard loop. Some sessions/gigs, you don’t need the stuff on this. But when you do, this is a beast.
I’d have to check the manual because I can’t really remember - but I have a feeling you just hold down the respective button for about three seconds, and your patch just gets remembered. Open to be corrected on that though :-)
I just bought one a month ago. I use the demension and tremolo mainly. Would have paid the same price for a good chorus and tremolo pedal. I use the tap tempo alot.
I would like to know how the routing is in the pedalboard, I mean that I understand that it is possible to connect the stomps in an order as it is done regularly in separate pedals, wah first, then distortion, then modulation etc. etc. how we do this?
Each column of footswitches is like an indiviual pedal. You select which effect goes in each column and it works like three pedals in a row: 1, 2, 3. You can look at the full manual by Googling "Line 6 M9 PDF". Hope tha helps :) Gearfacts

Cool, I didn't know you could have 6 effects running, I thought it was only 3. Thank you :) Gearfacts
Wait maybe i didn't explain well, i meant 6 effects ready in one bank but only 3 running at the same time
haha yeah I was all excited for a moment, then i googled it and realised what you meant :D Good to start the day with a laugh :) Gearfacts

A pedal for the creative guitar player I'd say. Not a complete solution, but LOTS of fun :)
The JVH M9 mods are quite worth it and make you like unit even more.
Yeah it's legendary:) GF
@@gearfacts are you being facetious?
What are the mods?
How do you save your custom settings to patches A , B and C?
I’d have to check the manual because I can’t really remember - but I have a feeling you just hold down the respective button for about three seconds, and your patch just gets remembered. Open to be corrected on that though :-)
Would I b able to get that lo-fi sound on this pedal? Like that vibrato and chorus sound?
Definitely
@@gearfacts Awesome! Thanks man 👍

@@michaelgranka7904 Yep that's the way I see it - if you only use 2 or 3 of the effects it's still a cheaper and more versatile way to go

Want one
❤
can it load IR or is this before all that malarky?
IR as in infra-red data transfer?
@@gearfacts Impulse Response
No IR loading
Any good for volacals.
Not ideal, but yes it'd be possible.
Can i see the settings of your particle verb?
Sorry Ferrer this machine has left the studio :) #Gearfacts
just update software to version 2.04, all problems solved 👍
Good video now i no not to buy one
That’s the purpose of Gearfacts :) helping ppl choose gear that makes them smile
It fell apart with the distortion terrible
That's just my bad taste in sound, can't blame Line 6 for that, haha. Great unit!
