So I got a dod fx25 pedal, and I like it a lot. But I keep using it with the sensitivity knob all the way down to get that dub/reggae tone (like Slightly Stoopid/Sublime's bass in some of their songs).
right now I'm just using it as an on/off pedal and I can just get one dub tone out of it. So my question is, are there any other more versatile pedals that are used to get more dub sounds? |

| | | | most envelope filter will be able to get different kinds of low pass filtering depending on their control over your signal.
its adjusting the knobs where the magic begins, sometimes a half of a half of a millimeter will get the right sound. it takes some tinkering around to find out what a pedal can do.
also playing style. these pedals are very sensitive to where you pluck on your sting and how hard and kind of strings and and.....just try different things, you will see. there are many many sounds in there, just gotta coax them out. |

| | | Here is one soundclip of OC2 + Ebs Bass IQ from our rehearsal http://maihinnousu.net/s/?song_id=3417 (click on the play sign)
Zoom recorder cuts out bit of the lowest frequencies, but you get the idea |

This is an simply yet very effective tone control...2 knobs, volume and tone...the tone control is kind of like a filter with pretty low resonance...turn it all the way down and it will cut out all the high end and give you that nice dubby reggae sound you are looking for. Turning it up progressively adds high end, nice if want a real up front slap sound...also cuts out a little mid range as well.
I have the old version which was $80 shipped...they updated it and its a little bit more expensive but has an additional bass boost i belive. This is a great preamp tone pedal, i always leave it on, its my main tone and volume control. Really adds some smoothness to your tone as well...just an awesome pedal for the price, one of my favorite buys for sure |
