Cheaper, and knobs are programmed to be more filter centric. You could program the C4 to be that way, but I’m not much of a deep diver.I thought all the spectrum patches can be done on the C4? Why switch it when you can use the C4 as both?
Next time I'll have a MT2 available will keep it and try this mod. Thanks!its a simple dog mod metalzone, and its more like a vanilla hard clipper now, not sounding like the beehive you might think. If you have a metalzone hidden in a drawer, try this solderless mod.
some tips regarding metalzone usage on bass
.you need to keep gain among 0 and 2 out of 10 to get a usable sound.
. you need to cut the highs as you most possibly trying to achieve more of a low mid focused sound with a band.
. you need to boost the lows a wee bit as well but not too much, cause it turns boomy.
. then you search the freq you like through mids and parametric mids knobs.Boost or cut at your liking.
. Level at will. you re done.
. Tone get 1000% better as soon as i turn on the Ampeg Clone. Mt-2 loves getting stacked into tubelike tones.
thanks for your reply my brother.
P.S.
DIY: Boss MT-2 Metal Zone “Simple Dog” No-Solder Mods – Mr. Furious Audio

second picture - band rehearsal setting, trying to get pick-like sound that can help me stay away from volume wars with my fellow guitarists : )
That video is brilliant. One of the most (if not the most) sold pedal ever (more than a million units). Never owned one but talked and played a while. One of the tricks for guitar was to put a noise gate after as is a hi-gain pedal, designed probably to compete with JCM900, Rectifiers, etc. in a pedal format.I don't you an MT-2, but I'm well aware of the rep it has. This video is interesting though. It's guitar focused, but it's a good example of how application/placement is everything...
My noodling/new ideas pb...will be replacing the Clockwork v3, with a Specular Tempus soon.View attachment 3866092
I didn’t have the I2 very long, but they’re quite different. As you know, every looper has pros/cons...the I2 more suited to live play, with two loop options (verse/chorus) and trails.How does the Clone looper compare to the Pigtronix Infinity 2?
I'm going to have to try my Timmy w/ a Barbershop/Modele B. I've got a Barbershop on both of the bass boards right now mostly for the sag, but some how it never occurred to me to try the Timmy for bass...Just finished putting this together...

Hmm. Doesn’t look like it takes a stereo input. Am I missing that? Ideally a stereo 1/4” input with a headphone out, powered by 9v C-
OBNE has a mono in version. Maybe I could ask for a Custom. Saturnworks might have something too.
