Recommend a Delay and Reverb pedal for 80s metal

[GrimTrigger]

I get my '80s tones, hair metal and more, from my ISP Theta Michael Sweet gear:

This is the only digital amp model I’m interested in. But even though it sounds awesome for that 80s sound ala Ethan Brosh a little antiquated in terms of features (no usb).

I emailed ISP and they told me they have something new in the works….

Yes, it's old school; it reminds me of my old rack gear from back in the day (ADA) in a floorboard format, and programming patches on that little LCD screen was and still is tedious compared to touchscreens and software editors today...but the sounds in the ISP kit are worth it.

Last year I made a computer software rig, and I use that 90%+ of the time, with no plans to get any more hardware gear, amps or cabs. I still have around a dozen tube amps, most 100W no plans to sell, but I've sold / selling my hardware modelers....so I don't plan to get any new ISP hardware gear either.

Nothing like 50W, 100W tube amps with the power amp opened up, but that's because I'm old and nostalgic....my computer plugin rig is really all I need.

What about the MLC stereo line mixer? I’m confused how you set individual levels for effects. It only has the Mix 1 and Mix 2 like the old Bradshaw racks. Not sure how it works.

Generally with parallel mixers you control the mix with the output level of your effects unit. Run mix at 100% and control the amount of effect with the output level.
