I have to make a correction here. There is latency with the Pog, I kinda feel it when I play along with tracks. I don’t have a DAW otherwise I’d just look. It’s not bad, It just loses some sense of immediacy. I don’t care because the growl function into OD really pops. I’m going to go with that and free up space. It’s just a matter of getting my gain structure right and that won’t be a problem. Plenty options here.

I have one of the latest batch of Xenograph Deluxe. My understanding is that I can use a Dunlop Mini and set min/max sweep on the XD using the Freq and Sense knobs right?

You would set the min frequency with the Freq knob and the max with the Exp[ression] knob. The Sens[itivity] knob controls how much your playing dynamics sweep the filter cutoff up or down.

If you're talking about the Dunlop X Mini volume/expression pedal, you can set the min sweep, and not the max. I have a regular 3 knob Xerograph and I couldn't get the sweep I wanted because of that, so I bought a Moog EP-3 which works perfectly.
I guess that the Xerograph deluxe works like mine, so you can only set the min sweep.

On the current version of the Xerograph Deluxe, there's an expression knob that sets the maximum frequency the expression pedal sweeps to. Not necessary when using the EP-3, but it makes it possible to use other expression pedals and get the exact right range.

Wait what? Dubterranea? Done and done!
Taylor is killing me. I’m literally rationing food to buy this stuff and I’m from Inglewood Ca. the land where no good deed goes unpunished and the folks take Bass seriously.
A used SubT was my introduction to Iron Ether and since that time I’ve purchased 2 more from the shop, saving for another and now this? No joke I stayed up till 1:00 am last night with the SubT and XenoD, I just couldn’t stop and there is so much in there. It’s been a steep learning curve for me admittedly but I’m starting to genuinely appreciate the fact that these are not “baked-in sound” mass produced crap.
Taylor and Talkbass have been a great help. Thank you.
My use is just old school hybrid Funk/Soul/R&B. I’ve got a Divaricator working for the Rock stuff that actually pays good.
That’s on a different board, really hope the gigs come back. It’s a ghost town man.
Take care everybody. It’s gonna get real-deal weird where I’m at.

Oh and any suggestions for a compressor in front of the SubT soon to be DubT-Fuzz-Xeno-Polytope? Simple is fine and small would be great. Thanx, Manny

For a small compressor focused on adding sustain for synthy combos I'd recommend either the Fairfield Circuitry Accountant or the Pigtronix Philosopher Bass Compressor Micro.

@Taylor Livingston ?

It's not on the website yet, nor has it been mentioned on the FB page.

I'm scrambling to get everything ready to announce it as soon as possible. Hoping for this coming week. I'm almost out of stomp switches and my normal suppliers are out of stock or shut down due to the lockdown in NYC, so I just need to make sure I can actually get good quality switches before I can announce it.

I'll keep an eye out. I do like low numbers. ;)
