Iron Ether Appreciation Society

4B540BF9-CB9E-4C50-B083-220CC70EBC80.jpeg Been working with this the last week. An excellent beast of a pedal. Highly recommend grabbing one during the next run.
 
Why do you prefer the SubT? Just curious, I'm interested in acquiring a DubT & am a SubT owner..

While the synths on the DubT are stellar, the stand-alone sub-octave just doesn't cut the mustard. The SubT's sub-octave has that rubbery, immediate snap that I've come to expect from octavers. The DubT is wobble-city. I'm a huge octaver nerd, even run two on my board, so I'm well-practiced in how to get the best sound and response from a sub-octave. No matter how I adjust my playing and technique, I can't get the DubT to behave properly. This is no knock on Iron Ether - I own and love every other product he's put out and use them extensively. I just can't gel with the Dub. The SubT however falls onto my list of absolute best octavers, along with 3Leaf, COG and Broughton offerings.

Ah, I see. That's good to know. Thanks for the reply..
