IMO, putting an 'other' option defeats the object of picking your favourite from the list.

I voted other since my favourite is the Akai Headrush with the Zvex Mastotron a close 2nd.

what I meant by other is of the effects listed (chorus, Envelope, octave, wah, and synth), which is your fav and if the brand isnt listed, post it as a reply and tell me what kind of effect it does. sort of like kaputsport did with synth. I dont need any digital delay, distortion, compressor, or micro amp options.

the thing is we dont really have a spot to go that list everyone's fav effect for each effect. we should do a sticky with a poll for each kind of effect.

I'm just silly for a good old analog delay- I love my Ibanez UE-405's Maxon-built delay; having the controls in a rack allows easy tweakage of repeats & time to SO like a bad 50's sci-fi or drunken thereminist. I also have a[digital]Soundtank Echo Machine which is convinced it's analog.

Just so I can try and be helpful, let me get this straight. You want suggestions for Octave, Chorus, Phaser, Synth, Envelope Filter and Wah? Sorry, just don't understand the poll and only being able to vote once.

But...if I'm understanding your request right, I'd go for:

Octave: Boss OC-2 or Foxrox Octron

Chorus: DOD Ice Box or Boss CE-5

Phaser: EHX Small Stone or Phase 45 (reissue coming soon)

Synth: not something I'm too good with to be honest, but I've heard good things about the Chunk Systems Octavius Squeezer, Akai Deep Impact and the new MB Supersynth.

Envelope Filter: DOD FX25(B) or EHX Qtron+

Wah: Morley Power Wah

Just my opinion of course, hope that's of some help .

Electro-Harmonix Enigma Q-Balls would be my favorite. Big Muff (for bass of course) would be #2.

Here are a couple more suggestions:

Octave: Ashdown Bass Octave, DOD Octoplus

Chorus: Digitech Bass Multi-Chorus

Phaser: MXR Phase 90 for something more 'fleshy', EHX Small Stone for something more subtle, Boss PH-3 is also an excellent choice

Synth: Not a fan of synth myself, but I've heard the EHX Bass Micro Synth can do no wrong

Envelope Filter: IMO, only one option here: EHX Enigma QBalls, although you might want to give the new MXR Bass Envelope Filter a try

Wah: Dunlop 105Q or Morley Dual Bass Wah

thats perfect, but I thought I get everyone's #1 pick with the poll. you know, so out of all of your suggestions, which are great, which one would be your #1? if its in the poll, select it, if its not, then select other.

Ive never used any of those pedals, so I voted other.

Octave: Have yet to use an octave myself, but Id consider something as far as an octave up pedal

Chorus: Closest thing I use to a chorus is my EHX Stereo Pulsar (Trem), I need to get myself a decent chorus

Phaser: Boss PH-3 is also an excellent choice (this is what I use, I like it)

Synth: I really love my Digitech Bass Synth Wah, I guess that could also be consider an envelope filter

Wah: Morely Dual Bass Wah

From that list, it would have to be the FX25B, closely followed by the Small Stone.
