As far as the Weeping Demon, I find it like it best in the context I probably use it in least, which is with heavy distortion + low notes (B string & E string use). It gives it a really growly almost yelling quality. But clean it sounds kinda poor, and with heavy distortion + high notes (my position most often used) it doesn't give much of a "WAH" quality as a keeps the speedy sounds going kinda thing... anybody have settings advice? I use a relatively high Q, really low bass, and not quite sure what my settings underneath the expression pedal are.

I disagree on the clean comment. The pedal is very dependant on the strength/quality of the signal going into it. For example, I only use passive basses, but if I single out the bridge pickup on my Jazz and really dig in above it, the Weeping Demon sounds far funkier than my old Morley or my Dunlop did IMO.

Also a tiny bit of tweaking can make it scream, not that I personally ever use that. Then again I'm running overdrive>wah and your running wah>insane mental distortion!

As far as settings advice, just play around with it and the Metal Muff, switch the order, see what you think, then just TWEAK! :)

Steve - remember the Weeping Demon has five variables, check out mine in the post, I always have the range under the pedal full. That gives me a really thick beefy wah sound with some overdrive. Quite Calm Like a Bomb-ish.

Mm, I'll be sure to give it a try... I never was quite done tweaking it.

What does the auto/off/delay thing mean, exactly? Kinda confused on that.

And I see you're using auto switch as well, it's really pretty sweet.
