Much more enjoyable sounds than I have managed to get out of my bassballs. It was a bit of an impulse buy and I didn't realise how huge it would be. I'll probably send it back and get something small. It does look cool and feels quality for the price. Even if it is giant. I didn't send mine back. It's too much fun and didn't cost much. Quote

Just goes to illustrate how finding the best filter for your own style also needs to take into account the output and bandwidth of your instrument. 3 Quote

Kev Posted April 2 Posted April 2 Doesn't sound right, even the most basic of mutton circuit clones should have more than enough range to stop it from triggering. Quote

Kev Posted April 2 Posted April 2 try another, maybe? The scratch could be indicative of it already having been returned before for being a dud. Quote

The gain works just fine. Sorry you had such a bad experience. 2 Quote
Jean-Luc Pickguard Posted April 2 Posted April 2 I was excited when I first heard about this pedal in the dim and distant past, however I've now decided not to bother. On my all-boss gigging pedalboard I have an AW-3 which makes a wide range of funky sounds, and my recently acquired HX effects has a pretty decent sounding model of a mutron III that I have been having fun playing with.

Autofilter will also get you there or thereabouts with some fiddling Quote

Quatschmacher Posted April 4 Posted April 4 Got the Mutron Microtron III I bought yesterday and, as expected, much better. Quote

stewblack Posted April 4 Posted April 4 So, last night I combined my Behringer Octave divider with the B Tron and produced the most wonderful squelchy synth sound. Sat perfectly in the band mix. Two wonderful pedals for the price of a cup of coffee. Win! 5 Quote
