MXR M82 Bass Envelope Filter + Z.VEX Box of Rock (clone!)
with this combination (+ some clean blending via X-Blender) i get very very close to that RHCP "Sir Pyscho Sexy" sound. |

| | | | MuTron III+ and TAFM, actually running the filter before the fuzz, sounds killer.
The other good one is QTron+ with a SPII in it's effects loop.

I'm currently running a Green Rhino into a WMD Superfatman. My back up filter is a 3 Leaf GR(v1). I like the Fatman so much, I may put my GR up on the block.

All 3 give a different flav. |

|  | Registered User | | Join Date: Jan 2007 Location: SF (North) Bay Area | | | My fave dirt>filter combos are thus: TFR or Oxide into Xero D (w/express pedal) and TFR or Rusty box into Proton. I've also been known to throw an OC2 in front of all of the above for synthy goodness.
Edit: I've got a FEA Dual Band Distortion coming (I used to have a v1) and I'm sure I'll be using that in combo with both the Xero D an the Proton.
I guess I'm a sucker for dirt and filters.

| | | | I used to be all about having my Q Tron + running into my MXR Bass Blowtorch (with BBE Maximizer at the end). However I've been doing some adjustment to my amp EQ and I can't seem to find the funky-screamy-but-still-heavy sound I had before. I just ordered an Enigma Q balls, we will see how that plays out when combined with the blowtorch, I can't wait! | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
