Damnation Audio Fan/Appreciation Thread

What's that?

I'd bet it isn't a muff based fuzz

I had fun doing some Dirt Fixer demos last week, so i thought i'd share it here. This is a first for me, including using a daw, but after a few trials it was pretty fun so i might do some more.
First batch is all about rats, DI from home practice amp (Vox 50BA), no plug in or cam sim

Here is a Earthquaker Devices life pedal V2 clone, sometimes pushed by my oldest compagnion.

Now that's how to do a demo!! (not saying Damnation products don't have great demos)

Thanks for putting those together! If you're planning on additional vids could you play around with the contour switch also?

 

[Bleezar]

Thanks ! I really enyoyed the official demos and trying to make some myself is indeed more of an homage and a humble contribution to highlight a very cool piece of gear.
Also for pure untertainement purpose I'll try to cover bands / riffs fitting the pedals when possible.
Unsane and Amen Ra here. Next time i'll mess more with the switch, i kinda forgot as it is an always on for me, i like the scooped sound (also why i keep the odb3 as a booster / clang machine when things get too muddy for my ears, or just to get a very aggressive attack over a fuzz)

I'd probably keep it up all the time too Don't get me wrong, I'm loving the juicy raunch you get

I sill love the ODB3. That is one great bass OD/fuzz.

I haven't used my Hilbish Pessimiser (based on the ODB3) in a while... Might need to fix that.

Looks great!

If I didn't already have Broughton FFXL and Byte Heaven Sugar Britches, I would get this pedal...

Anyone use MBD (any variant) for high gain purposes? Played around with it yesterday and it can sound really massive. I might use it for higher gain stuff instead of my muffs.

Sometime I feel like I might want a second MBD as I’m loving it as my always on low-gain tone running into an Origin Super Vintage. Adds a ton of low-end girth and grit, super articulate and deep with my P-bass. Step on the boost and I get a nice medium-gain drive. But it can do high gain so well as well as you suggested!! I’m using a W&C Super Russian as my high gain and a B1K as my medium gain and both sound even better running into the MBD3, it just thickens them up beautifully!

I use my mbd 1 with a bit of clean, gain at 3 and depth at 4… volume to taste but just gets a massive clear articulate grind. I’ve tried a song we do with a combination of doomy ringing chorus with a fast paced verse with a turbo rat or green Russian and just keep coming back to the mbd1

Man , I’ve always had a soft spot for the MBD … had the original grey box , and then the smaller version … this newest one totally rules with the gain footswitch. Finally able to knock a fuzz off my board. Going in the studio in two weeks and it’s looking like the MBD will be the base of my tones

Did it knock the Demhe off, by chance? I've been interested in that one for a while, but haven't pulled the trigger. I also LOVE my MBD (the 2 version), so if this does whatever the Demhe does but better, I can maybe take it off the list... It's a long-term goal of mine to downsize and keep only pedals that get used or have a specific niche I know I'll need. And my fuzz winner is always a Muff these days!

 

[fdbishop1]

I am 85% positive it did. I don’t 100% love the demhe, and don’t use fuzz much except for a few spots here and there … so far I am enjoying being able to make the MBD dirtier and not have my tone change drastically.

 

[mouthmw]

Loving my MBD2 as a higher gain distortion recently. Fat, smooth but also grindy and punchy tone lends itself really well for this purpose. Massive sounds!

Hope this is ok to post here. But we’re doing a live event at a guitar store here in Baltimore.
