Hi guys,
I read on this forum (and/or Gearslutz? ) that having two matrix 1000 slightly detuned will make a very big sound. I have always love my matrix 1000 but thought it was missing the punch I have with the NL2X or the Proteus 2000. I have been running it in stereo through an Lexicon Mx200 and I don't see that much of a difference....
Would it really be a good idea to have a second one and to run them slightly detuned? If yes, what maximum price should I pay for it?
Or is the Mx200 not enough "vintage/analog" compared to pedals ? I run the NL2X through 4 TC electric pedals....
Just give me your advices...
Thanks sincerely

Re: Second Matrix 1000 makes sense?
This dual voice with one slightly detuned strategy will definitely phatten up your sound, not just for Matrix 1000. One caveat though, when you do this with bass voices you will actually lose some punch as the phase differences shift between the two...works great for leads though!

PS -- if you buy one and are not happy with the results, I may take the extra one off of your hands (a sucker for GAS)
