Can anyone suggest some decent settings to coax a Pink Floyd'ish tone from my Rectoverb 25? Looking for a "Run Like Hell" sort of sound. I have a TC Electronics Flashback delay to dial in that portion but I can't seem to get that Floyd tone I'm after. Any suggestions? Thanks!
 
Are you talking about the chorded part or the single string plucking part? There isn't a lot that the Recto 25 can't pull off. That being said, one thing it doesn't have is a bunch of clean headroom, which you need if you want to play either of those parts loudly. For the chorded part you're gonna need a Telecaster in the bridge position. For the plucked part you're gonna need a baritone single coil something or other iirc and a compressor pedal.
 
I am pretty sure you're gonna need a strat. The amp settings should be fairly clean.
It's not the kill, but the thrill of the chase...the sound of squealing tires in a parking garage :p
