mcnach Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 I have to vote for the Soundblox BEF. It's a bit larger than I'd like... but god, does it sound good! It also seems to make a bit less of a tonal difference if you play fingerstyle or slap. Pedals like the DOD FX25 you have to set the sensitivity for each style, or you would get either too dark fingerstyle or too bright and lacking bottom slap. The BEF seems better in finding a compromise... plus it has a million tones. I end up just using a couple of them, and using the knobs to alter as needed... I use mine now with an OKKO Basstard for that Sir Psycho Sexy sound, and it's sounding great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pantherairsoft Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 I am now rocking the WMD Super FatMan and oh my goodness is it amazing! It has replaced both my 442 & my Groove Regulator from my board, and every other envelope in my collection has gone (other than a sweepable low pass filter). Amazing Tonally and with a massive host of features. I was hoping I'd love the Source Audio BEF Pro as every raves about it and lots of guys doing similar music to myself rely on it as the main stay of their sound - I however thought it was horrid and very very digital sounding. It lacked balls when used with an octave down (not bad on a clean tone but I run an octave down pedal 90% of the time). I was all round disappointed in the unit. This is of course all a matter of opinion as lots of folks love them and it has ALOT of features and options in one box. It just wasn't for me!!

pantherairsoft Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 The ability to blend a fat envelope filter with just a tiny bit of LFO (So you hear the wobble fade in when you sustain a note) is lovely. http://www.wmdevices.com/superfatman.php I use a WMD Geiger Counter too. Amazing pedals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
