Hi,
i'm thinking of either buying the digitech BassSynth Wah or the Dod fx25b i think, and i'm not sure which to get. I've tried both in the shops, but its hard tell which i prefer without playing in my band/s.
Any opinions on these too pedals would be much appreciated  and depending on my next pay cheque i might consider the q-Tron instead lol

i suggest you tape/staple your mail shut |

| | Registered User Endorsing Artist: Aguilar Amplification, Dunlop/MXR | | Join Date: Oct 2006 Location: Southern California | | Q-trons are nice. I sold mine a couple of years ago because I wasn't using it much but now I'm finding that I miss it. I'm looking at the Q-tron plus.
Other filters to look at are the HAZ Lab Mutron III+ and the EBS Bass IQ.
I don't know much about the Digitech Synth Wah but you may find some reviews on it here if you do a search. I tried a DOD once before I purchased the Q-tron. The Q-tron beat it hands down IMHO. It really all depends on what kind of sound you want and the type of music you're doing. I was looking for an old school funk Bootsy Collins era vibe and the Q-tron has that sound down. The Q-tron can also give a synthy vibe as well.
Just be honest with yourself about what you expect out of an envelope filter and you will get the right one for you.

It’s also rather small in size; about a inch around bigger than a DOD. And it is made in Australia.

| | Registered User Mr. Wiggles the Worm | | Join Date: Nov 2007 Location: New Jersey | | | i have the ehx bassballs and bass microsynth, both of which i love. i haven't heard the digitech pedal in action, but from my experience you can't beat that analog sound. |
