I is doing this with my revelation and Black Forest. It is fucking thick and brutal.
I almost wanna stick my dynacomp in front but my brother has it.
Anyone putting comps in front of their stacked BATs?
Never been into stacking. I had some good results with the Pharaoh and some other pedals combined but I use two amps and that just makes more switches for me to have to be concerned with. However I just bid on a compressor so I will hopefully be seeing how that works out with my set up.

BF into Pharaoh is killer. I run a pharaoh gain pretty full up, Si mode. Low Input mode, EQ as above. Then BF lower gain for boost and EQing.

Seriously, the coven is beastly. I like to run the BF into pharaoh where BF is set at a little bass boost and a little treble cut. Really beefs up the pharaoh. Run on neck pup with the tone rolled back, dat electric wizard tonez.

I saw that Pharaoh on there used page but didn't feel like driving to check it out. Was it in Coconut Creek? I live in Miami and its a good hour or so to get there, stupid me. I own an old style Pharaoh with a 80 something serial number. Love it, but its just not on my board right now. Also own a custom color Ritual.

just snagged pharaoh #187 (murder edition) in the original gold off ebay. beyond stoked.... been wanting one for about a year now. and thus completes the unholy trinity of dirt, oath -> black forest -> pharaoh. do you guys who run a lot of BAT pedals ever have any issues with the daisy chaining? i know some fuzzes can be temperamental about that shit...

Marks pedals are so shapeable that individually they can do more than a lot of other pedals, to get the added flavor and stay in that sweet spot, you kinda need to turn things down. It's counter intuitive, and when I started using more than one pedal for dirt I would set each pedal where I thought it sounded best on it's own, but after time and messing around I have found its much better sounding to treat them as one giant pedal, and to set them to compliment each other.
Quoted myself from another thread with similar stuff,
I was running a destroyer>Pharaoh for a while and actually made a looper with volume controls to tame it down a bit. Ended up being usefull for all kinds of things, but yeah man, that should be nuts.

i should clarify, when i say "daisy chaining" im referring to any issues that might come from running them all on a 9v daisy chain multi plug thing

Those three shouldn't be a problem. I have an Oath, Pharaoh, Quantum Mystic, and Ritual, (oh man I feel like such a fanboy nerrrrrrrrrd) and the only one I've had any problems with getting noisy is the Ritual, and that's just cuz it doesn't like buffers/too much input

My pharaoh did not really like being daisy chained. Before I got my PP2+ I used to just run it on the 9V all the time. YMMV.

could you explain a little bit what you mean by this? does one of the pedals affect your tone without being activated or something?
