Fuzz w/ Most Low End but No Blend

[jufros]

Any thoughts on this? The Brown Dog is absolutely amazing and isn't going anywhere but I wish it could get a little deeper. The same goes for the Orbit.

[whoatherechunk]

i thought that the supercollider had gob loads of low end. most? i'm not too sure of that but it did have good low end.

Though it's one of those love/hate things (I personally dig it), the Way Huge Swollen Pickle had gobs of low end.

mxr el grande....

[Gashaponcito]

from what I've heard I think the Bass Big Muff (bass boost) and the Woolly Mammoth can get pretty deep, also da new Mastotron has a sub switch to get a deeper

Frantone Lo Tone, very fat bass!

+1 on the pickle.

I used to have a MessDrive but I sold it. I do remember it having massive lows though. It wasn't gated enough for me but now that I have the MP-201 controlling my filters, everything is different. If I can find one, I'd definitely be willing to give it a whirl in my current setup.

The devi ever cherry pop fuzz pedal has a huge fizzy sounding fuzz that has massive lows.

i play a muff clone that i built after doing many experiments with building a tonebender on a muff board.

through this i learned that fuzzes only really need large caps, tweaked tone controls (if present) and actually LESS clipping in order to get that big bottomless low end.

a great mod to any muff clone to make it instanty more bass friendly is to simply pull the first pair of clipping diodes.

if you want all the crazy clipping then find all the values of your particular boxes' tone control and plug them into the tone stack calculator provided by duncan amps. then tweak the values to get a curve you want.

since doing this research and understanding how the circuit works i've never had ANY problems retaining lows - in fact my experiments frequently produces results that boosted the lows.

the red messdrive is the hands down champion of "most lows"

its a really sweet pedal.

woolly mammoth qualifies too, but its expencive, and hates actives.

[jufros]

Yeah to clarify, I'm looking for boosted lows rather than low end retention. I might need to try a Mammoth unless the Mastotron can get just as deep. This is for a synth board.

With the subs switch on 3, you'll get crazy lows.

[takfar]

yup. Mastotron with subs switched to 3 is the way to go for big lows (provided you like the mastotron fuzz itself -- I do).

[Valerus]

i had the mastotron, it hits LOW. seriously. and it can get pretty synthy

[jufros]

It's really too bad that there isn't a Mammoth clone out there. I'd buy one in a heartbeat. I very well may give the Mastotron a try though. The price is excellent. I really need to just give up and do a PT-Pro I think...

[rratajski]

There are a few mammoth clones out there and the schematic/wiring diagrams are online.
