Dual dirt pedals

I don't think the Bass Drive should count because it's just one drive with a boost.
A good number of those.
Xotics RC Booster Scott Henderson?

This looks interesting! I had the Aftershock and it played nice with my passive basses, but it was just a fizz machine with my Stingray. No amount of EQ'ing or preamp tweaking could save it from the classifieds.
i've had a few Double drive pedals ...
but ... nothing seems to have the variety of my Dr Scientist ' the elements ' ... ! 3 clipping modes , 2 gain stages , 3 band EQ inserted at the right spots , mid/bass filter switches , mix knob ** that can be control via it's volume pedal jack **..!! , all analog , very well made ...

Egads, don't doubt his pedals at all, but for Gods sake, please fix that website Doc! Now off for some electroshock therapy...

We'll add any two effects together, but unfortunately the gate/boost mod for The Demon only applies to the Demon. The Cat Tail circuit can't gate.

- I like 5, 8, 10, and 12 string basses
I think the Two Notes LeBass might be closest to what you are describing. I have the Cog Effects Knightfall 66 but the channels don't stack, they are only individually selectable. I believe the LeBass can run one channel or the other or both either in series or parallel.
Hello. You can remove the Fulltone Bass-Drive from your list, I think. The versions I'm familiar with feature only one drive circuit plus a boost, not two types of drive.

Gotta vote for the awesome and inexpensive Pigtronix Disnortion. THREE different dirts - OD and fuzz in parallel, and then an octavia type that you can use alone or stack on top of the others. The EQD Hoof Reaper is also of this variety, with some different details and a heftier pricetag.
I know Fuzzrocious can do two pedals in one or one pedal with two footswitches to switch between gain levels. Maybe pick your favorite between his Green Muff/Rat/OCD clones and go with one of those?

Fuzzrocious Cat/Rat w? 2nd dist mod
Way huge Green Rhino can do one or the other at a time
IdiotBox Blower Box can do one or the other at a time
DOD Carcosa can do one or the other at one time
Brimstone XD2
Darkglass B7K Ultra or Vintage Ultra
Many out there. These come to my mind immediately though.

The Wounded Paw Battering Ram is killer, still on my GAS list.
+1 to Empress MultiDrive.
DVK's Invalid Link Removed is an 808 and Rangemaster in one, but neither of those circuits is known for retaining low end. I have one, but haven't been using it much, so I couldn't say whether it loses low end or not.
Jekyll & Hyde from Visual Sound/Truetone is another – based on 808 and Shredmaster. The 808 bumps your mids so you cut through and the Shredmaster makes sure your lows aren't lost by the 808 — or so I've read from bassplayers happy with this pedal.
HERE HERE! uhr, HEAR HEAR!
You could take two Elements and rehouse them in one enclosure, it makes for a GREAT pedal. Then add in the original Elements you first picked up and killer tonality for daze!
Yeah, stacking 3 Elements is the shizzle.
Nuttin' really wrong with the Dr Sci website, it's slow-loading, but fun.
Oh yeah, my Dwarfcraft-built Big Distortion Sound Machine is funtastico, but would need to be modded for separate stompability of both circuits (The Ruiner and Torn's Peaker).

I've been really interested in this but I can't find any reviews or demos that use it on bass. What are your thoughts?
