The poor tuner pedal isn't in the signal chain at the moment due to no space. I need to cut a lengthwise slot for better cable management, as well.

Members Blakemore Effects Posted December 13, 2011 Members Share Posted December 13, 2011 I replaced my Mini-RRR with the El Capistan on my gigging board. Don't get me wrong; I love my RRR more than just about any pedal I've ever owned, it's just that we have one song where I need a huge wash of sound, and I missed having reverb and delay. The RRR sounds great, I just needed both effects at the same time in order to truly {censored} up my sound enough. I'm pretty damn happy with this board though. The only addition I can think of is that I may build myself a favorite switch for the El Cap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use mine (it's a rack EQ) in the amp effects loop, but if I had a pedal on my board...I'd put it after the distortion/OD, but before any sort of pitch/modulation/delay/volume stuff. It's really up to you though, but I know I don't use my EQ to shape the sound of my phaser or delay pedals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The D*A*M gets swapped around with a couple other fuzzes when I feel like it, namely a Drag'n'Fly, Meathead Deluxe, Cognitive Dissonance MKII, Mayonaise MKII or Sun Face NKT. SBEQ is holding the place of a Providence Sonic Drive, Red Witch is holding the place of a Providence Anadime Chorus. just ot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I usually prefer EQs early in the chain, pre-dirt, but I know plenty of people prefer them post-dirt.

Sounds great boosted by the Black Forest. What do you use your EP Booster for? I've been experimenting with different spots on my board. Right now, it's first in the chain, providing a gain boost. I might try it as a clean boost at the end of the chain though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use it as a clean boost, especially for my Strat or Mustang that have low output pickups. It's also a great boost for the other dirt pedals.

It's also a great boost for the other dirt pedals. I call it my "sound better" pedal. I have my OCD set to low gain and high volume (basically set up as a cleanish boost) and when I run it through my TC Electronic Mojomojo Overdrive, which I have set to high gain and low volume, it's just .

I also use mine that way! The Malekko is very cool. Sounds somewhere between a Phase 90 and a Small Stone IMO. Simple and effective, and tweaking the internal trimpot brings more tonal variations.
