Time amp settings — Boss GX-100
The Pink floyd guitar tone for “Time”, dialed in for a Boss GX-100 with a Enya sonic go Les paul. Studio version, The Dark Side of the Moon (1973)
1969 Fender Stratocaster (Black Strat, single-coil pickups) → Colorsound Power Boost → Univox Uni-Vibe → Binson Echorec → Hiwatt DR103 100W head → WEM Super Starfinder 4x12 (Fane Crescendo speakers)
| Knob | Setting (0–10) |
|---|---|
| Gain | 5 |
| Bass | 6 |
| Mid | 5 |
| Treble | 6 |
| Presence | 5 |
| Reverb | 2 |
| Master | 7 |
01X-DRIVE block (Nat OD or T-Scream mode)
Simulates Colorsound Power Boost—mild overdrive for sustain, not high gain
02PHASER block (Uni-V or Phaser mode)
Simulates Univox Uni-Vibe; slow swirl for intro/riff, faster for solo—adjust Rate in Performance mode
03DELAY block (Analog or Tape Echo mode)
Set delay time to 350-400ms (dotted-eighth at 120bpm); darker repeats mimic Binson Echorec
Hiwatt DR103 is a clean, punchy Class A/B amp with forward mids—GX-100's cleanest amp type (JC-120 or Fender Twin model) plus X-DRIVE block replicates the Power Boost overdrive without double-gain stacking. Les Paul humbuckers are thicker and darker than Strat single-coils—neck pickup with tone rolled to 6 warms things up without muddying; gain set at 5 instead of Hiwatt's 6 compensates for higher output. Treble 6 and presence 5 keep articulation without Strat's natural brightness.
