Broughton Audio Super Thread

[Lowendtech]

Yeah I’ve learned from the master. Hi Evel took one for the team on that one. Like why??

I took a set of H bars in the nethers once when I was dirt biking as a mid teen. I cupped up after that. Thank you hockey gear.

I’m going down to build a custom, one off, TrickyDick special, ramp. I’ll use the bag it’s currently in, in a pinch.
I believe I’ve posted my grandiose design already.

Ya gotta love the reverse pelvic thrust that the full on handle bar yank gives.

Wow. My local moose is on the ball.

It’s a lot smaller than I thought it was.

There's a lot of power in that small box. It's still my favorite Broughton pedal.

I like the sounds of the size description. Nice wood surface there too. I might have to use my upscale surface for some future pics.

Narrowly escaped getting roped into that one.

I knew I had to be quick. That one was too easy, lol.

I saw on one of the pictures you posted some time ago that your clean LPF was set at the lowest point (330 Hz) - was the idea to reproduce some kind of crossover to keep lows 100% clean, and blend back the wet signal with no lows (HPF set higher than 330)?

I've had multiple Bloops but always found the 1k clean LPF to be too high. The FFXL goes to 330 Hz and sounds so much better with dirt. I want definition and clarity in my dirt and my clean less defined. I always found clank and fret noise to come through with the Bloop. This does not happen with the FFXL and it makes EVERY dirt pedal sound better. I currently have 9 dirt pedals running through the FFXL and I get a consistent, killer sound across my pedalboard.

I set the HPF going into my dirt a little higher than 20 hz so they don't see too much low end. I let the low end on the clean side shine in that regard. I also do this because I run two octavers before my dirt and it sounds so damn good!

I set the LPF on the effected side to take away the brash, harsh upper frequencies. You can set this to taste but that's where mine landed.

Excellent, many thanks. That's about what I intended to do. In the digital (HX Stomp) world, I used to have a crossover even lower (160-200Hz) to do exactly that (well, I will try the Octaver thing with my BC - which is about the only Broughton I have that you don't own ).

And I imagine you meant you set the Dirt/HPF a little higher than 200Hz, not 20. Does that not create a little volume bump in the 200-330 region though?

I could definitely go lower than 330 Hz for some sounds but I figure it's significantly better than the Bloop's 1k. My effected HPF is at 9 o'clock so it's somewhere in between 20 and 100 Hz. I do raise it sometimes when using the Meatbox into it.

I've been wanting something along the lines of the FFxL for a long long time now. Your description makes me so happy to finally have one incoming. Now all I need is a RFE. And an Archetype preamp.
