Please, do tell more - like what songs do you mean? I'm not familiar with the C4.
I have quite a number of pedals but this is what I am using at the moment.
But all of that could change tomorrow!

Mostly Funk stuff from the 70's and 80's. Flashlight, You Dropped a Bomb,Wip It, that kind of stuff. Old vintage sounding key bass stuff, that I've been trying to sound like for years, using various filters, octaves and dirt (all seperate pedals) to chase these tones. Now they are all in one box, and actually sound like a synth, because they are a synth! And, the tones that Michael League from Snarky Puppy gets, are at my finger tips. Super excited!
They're similar but the Ampeg has a lot less grind, it's more simple (clean) EQ, works well with my AGBs and EUB. The SV-Pre has more versatility and, let's call it, gumption. It's more of a hard rock pedal with more emphasis of gain. They're modeled after different decades, I believe.
I originally thought the SV-Pre was going to replace the Ampeg but found out it's better to keep both.
Every time I see the Leeds on a board I get a fuzzy feeling in my heart. Criminal how little attention it got. Are those the settings you usually run? I havent used one in years but even still I can hear those settings in my head.

Really happy with this.
I've tried way too many envelope filters and always come back to the FX25. Tried a few different switching/blend/mix pedals and for me, the EHX just works the way I'm expecting.
Just need to get it onto a board.

The patch bay and ac are one the right side of the board with a built in on/off power switch
These are not cheap by any means but I love mine
You can check them out on YouTube

Ok, so a little more squaretooth and sawtooth kinda sounding.
I am still looking for the Holy Grail of Stevie pedal, that fat Living for the City Too High Dream Weaver Moog thing. I wish the Syb-3 was more stable....
I’m pretty sure you can get all of that from the C4, you just have to figure out how? I’ll get there eventually! That’s what I’m chasing!
I’m waiting on my daisy chain and TC sub-n-up, and I’ll have a dedicated bass board.
Everything should be in Monday/Tuesday.
I stole the cord from our Christmas tree, it has a stompbox to power on and off.
Gorilla glued some wood together, velcro’d it, and it all fits in a laptop case.
BASS BEFORE.....

Sorry for the blurry photo. Each and every pedal was chosen over the years among their alternatives.

As a Who fan if there was one pedal in the Character series I was going to get, it was always going to be the Leeds which I really like and which I believe is based on the Hiwatt 100 which both Townshend and Entwistle used around the Tommy era. The settings shown are quite clean and I usually have it set for Entwistle's tone from Live At Leeds which are:
With everything set flat on the amplifier
Level - 8.00 or to taste.
Mid - 2.45
Character - 1.30
Drive - 1.00
Low - 2.45
High - 2.45.
Hah that's why I bought it too and that was my go tone for when I wanted that bite! I kept low around 1.
Nice. Yeah usually had to back off the lows. I was using an SVT4 with 8x10 in a medium/small practice space with two other guitars and a drummer who absolutely hammered the kit.I will give that a try.........
I still have the Leeds I think I'm gonna have to pull it back out.
