My latest Rockmodule came in. It's a Stereo Chorus / Delay.

I recorded a complete song to demonstrate the Rockman Sustainor and Stereo Chorus. It is "Wish You Were Here", written by Roger Waters and David Gilmour of Pink Floyd. It was recorded to GarageBand using a Peavey Raptor EXP electric guitar, Rockman Sustainor and Stereo Chorus. You can find the...

They are extremely rare, but there is the Pro Bass Rockman. If you ever laid your hands on one, you's probably love it. The Pro Bass includes compression and a 9 band graphic equalizer. A foot switchable 3 band equalizer can also be used to change the EQ during a performance. It has an onboard...

Oops. I made the Rockman Stereo Chorus video private. Sorry about that. Try watching it now.

If you are interested in the Rockman Stereo Chorus, I've put together a feature review: oWdwSiFmCyY

Here's another pedal arrangement I have. I use a pair of Boss FS-6's with my Rockman Sustainor and Stereo Chorus. This particular rig, doesn't have any stomp boxes in it. No audio flows through the pedals. The way it's currently configured, the left FS-6 controls the Sustainor channel and output...

I just added a Rockman Stereo Chorus to my Sustainor. It sounds great!

You should pull it out of the drawer and give it a try. You might find out that it still sounds great. That Sustainor I demo'd on YouTube is 27 years old, and has never been refurbished.

I put together a demo of my Rockman Sustainor. KZTM85wVQTA Never mind the amateur guitar playing ;)

Hey Little B, do you have any videos up of one of your performances? I'd love to see your XPR in action. Best, --Bruce

I've been making a full-court press to improve the Wikipedia article for the Rockman: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rockman_(amplifier) Let me know if you have any comments. Thanks, --Bruce

I had read that many use it as a DI box. I believe it has flatter response than a guitar amp, and the compression helps smooth out the dynamics. I'll be experimenting for a while. Right now, I have it in front of my Delta Blues 115. I'll have to try it for DI as well.

I've started to add some Rockman gear to my Peavey Delta Blues 115. It's an Acoustic Guitar Pedal, designed for clean guitar work. It is basically a compressor with bass and treble controls. It's intended to make an electric guitar sound more like an acoustic guitar.

If you have never heard the Rockman Sustainor in action, you might like these 4 videos put together by David Accomando. There are lots of examples and he discusses and demonstrates different lineups. c98IT9toO7E y9iOpqw1MII i9VjwWXvf2c JpEcxUrn7Ts

Another interesting line is the Peavey Vypyr VIP series. They allow a lot of experimentation with amps and effects. It's a hybrid amp. Peavey's analog "TransTube" circuitry is used in the pre-amp. Then it goes digital for the effects. The list of effects is kind of surprising. Depending on the...

I take it that you are a cable into the amp kind of guitar player. I have a lot of respect for that. Sometimes I just turn all my effects off. It can be kind of liberating.

Mine is more like a pedal pile ;) It's pretty simple for now. These are the pedals for my Peavey Delta Blues 115. There is a noise gate in front of the amp. There is a chorus and delay in the effects loop. I use the amps lead channel for overdrive.

If you are familiar with the Rockman Headphone amps, the Sustainor isn't much larger. Here is my Rockman Guitar Ace, next to my "Blue face" Rockman Sustainor.

I think it might be the Sustainor: http://www.kemper-amps.com/forum/index. ... eadID=5816 I saw some other references to the X100 headphone amplifier. Of course, it's easy enough to go get the real thing. Sustainors and Distortion Generators come up on Ebay pretty often. The half rack form...

The low noise XPRa must be tough to find. I bet they go for a good price on Ebay when they list. I think they were only made after 1991.
