It’s so heavy!!! And the low end so pokey in my setup with hi headroom amp and 215 cab is where I need to work a little to get it to sit
I just got a Montreal Assembly Too Positive in the mail.
Haven’t had a chance to fire it up yet, but it seems very well suited for Rick-o-Sound and Stereo setups. Independent stereo in and out overdrive with seperate controls and foot switches for each side.
I don’t often gush over a pedal, but every minute I spend with the Spite Box makes the love grow. I’ll soon be checking out a noise improv collaboration and I know it will be on my board.
Tonight while noodle jamming, I forgot to breath, oxygen deprivation made my lower gums itch.
Following a Xerograph Deluxe with high resonance was so complex harmonically, in the coolest way. I can’t even….

Would love to get a Spite box, times be tight though! Id a grabbed one by now otherwise.
The Spite Box is next in the queue. I just need my bigger board to arrive first.
Just think of them as different categories.

Y'all mind if I add some of your feedback on the Spite Box page?
I don't have one, but I'd be a lot cooler if I did.
wish I could contribute too. I’m hoping one of these months this summer I’ll be able to swing it. Is the sprite just a special run or is it going to be a regular pedal?
I am joining a new pop punk/skate punk band and I'm looking to build a simple but effective board for it.
Nothing crazy, just a Tuner, a drive of some sort and a DI (maybe a preamp with eq like a Aguilar Tone Hammer).
Setup is simple, I have a Fender P/J into a Mesa Subway D800+. The band is a power trio, guitarist/singer, drum and bass.
I'm looking for something with some presence, some treble but I don't want to go the SVT route. Seems to obvious to me and overheard. Is the MBD-2 can do the job here? Is there enough mids/treble in the little box of wonders?
I had the MBD-1 in the past but with another amp and bass and I used it in another band so I can't really trust my memories of it.
Thanks for the help.

Yes. Shift switch up for more mid-forward drive sound (or down for a touch of scoop/more bottom end). Then just roll the tone up past 1:00/2:00 and use the Depth + Clean knobs to dial in the desired amount of thump and fundamentals. The only complaints I've heard about the MBDs not being punchy or bright enough are from folks who failed to explore the tone knob.
