Stacking/layout suggestions?

Postby sprawlstopper » Sun Mar 18, 2018 7:31 pm

Good evening, ILF.
Long-time lurker here coming out of the woodwork for some insight. I've been playing for quite some time, a lot of which was (shockingly!) spent without multiple drive pedals. I now have a few. How would you arrange/stack these?

Jext Telez White Pedal v1
Dr. Scientist Frazz Dazzler v2
SS/BS Mini
SS/BS Buzzz
SS/BS Fuck Overdrive

Plus:
Recovery Effects Cutting Room Floor v2
Catalinbread Zero Point

For reference, I play a Tele and Strat through a Vox AC30HW2, which I usually run pretty clean. One Greenback and one Scumback M55 (fuller, cleaner, bassier than the GB).

I've tried a few different layouts but new insight is never a bad idea.
Thank you.

Put them all in parallel.

I haven’t tried the jext or the buzz, but of the others I’d go mini>frazz>non dirt pedals>fuck.

Least dirty in front to most dirty in back

Or if there are some that aesthetically should go next to each other, do that.

That's an awesome collection. If I had those bbs, I would do as I normally do and split the chain. Maybe Mini--Cutting Room--Zero Point, then something like a stereo chorus (Ibanez CS9/10-series, Boss..) to A: Frazz--Fuck--AC30 and B: Buzzz--White Pedal--Mystery Amp

As a second amp, I'd just use whatever I had or could get cheap, on whichever side compliments the pedals before it. Only have the Fuck from yr list, but as I understand the White Pedal is a SS VOX/console-style preamp? I'd put those last, anyway.You might even want to have the modulation in parallel if you ran a stereo setup. Or not, but that's just the way I'm used to doing it. In mono I would have a harder time deciding which order, but would definitely want to keep all of them on the board!

Thank you.
The White Pedal is indeed based on SS Vox onboard fuzz circuitry. Actually considering selling it because I rarely use it. It sounds great but it isn't something for which I find myself reaching.

I hadn't thought about a stereo set up, though now I am. Dang it.

Oh, and added a Fairfield Barbershop to the mix. Never thought I would get excited over a low gain/'transparent!' OD, but holy shit...this thing rules

Well if you ever sell The White Pedal I would be interested, if only because I love The White Album and have no Vox-y sounds in my arsenal. The Barbershop I have only heard good things about, so congrats on the new haircut!

Stereo setup is so worth it. Not necessary unless like me you have to compete with a player that uses three amps, but it just gives you more options for blending/positioning sounds.

Decided I am indeed selling it. Messaging you now.
