Was a/b'ing some pedals lately and realized that some pedals react to my attack so much faster than others. For instance, my Alpha Omega or BBR Cmos is what I would call fast. I play, my attack comes thru with no sag. My Dunwich ODB (which I absolutely love) seems to make my playing a lot less articulate in that the attack seems squishy and slow. So I've taken to using the Dunwich for doomy parts and the Darkglass for parts where I need articulation. Anybody else here have a preference for fast or slow attack? If so, why? Also, please let us know which dirts you use that are super articulate or super squishy.
My fastest bass dirts:
Darkglass Alpha Omega
BBR CMOS Bass Overdrive
Idiotbox Landphil
Cog Mini 66
Slowest:
Dunwich ODB
Dunwich VT125B
Dunwich Wizard fuzz
Boss HM-2
Just want to add that one should not read fast or slow as "good" or "bad." My Dunwiches, although slow, are some of my prized possessions.
