Hey, thats my branding! :] Background tracks is generative, too.
Up-doot for sound tanks!
So cute you hate to stomp on :3
Where do you have the two eqs in your chain? Are those mxrs good on noise? Need to pick up another eq, as mine is a bit noisy.
My cable mgmt is sub par as well. (;
Theres also an ABY up top, the second EQ is for the other (dry) output. Will likely biamp live, and this will leave my lows uneffected. The MXR 10bands are really solid. These two are 18v modded, as are a lot of stuff on the board. More headroom for low freqs. If you can find an the ancient blue ones with the 110vac plug, its even better than the mod. Can't recall 100%, but I believe they are (or were) built as 'gyrating EQs,' very musical compared to constant-Q.
Cable management? Whats that? :p My noise floor is low, AFAIK, so its okay. Im secure with my mess. Next time I get some loot Ill probably invest in more/new patch cables.
Ebs flats are nice, and without them, I'd be even more of a mess for sure. I'll check out the older ones then. I know the older boss ones are better too as the new ones can't be modded. And I sure as hell can't spend hundreds on something like the empress Para eq, though it does look sweet.
Old stuff just has the goo, its kinda funny :] ParaEQ looks sweet (aside for the 300mA limitation). Im sure it does great, but almost anything should get you some reasonable hi/lo-pass. Extra tone-sculpting is always a perk, but the filtering is more important, imo. 10bands do pretty good for sculpting, too.
