Compressor Effects Pedals

MXR M102 Dyna Comp

Avg price: $90.49

MXR Squishy Comp

I have a love/hate relationship with this compressor - it sucks the high frequencies from your tone, but it gives you that infamous squish that you've heard on all classic records. On clean, you sound like Chic. If you use it before your OD's, it pushes them a little bit more just like a boost and when you place it after OD's, it keeps overall volume just fine (but as mentioned before - it sucks some of your highs).

Build quality is great and I prefer it's switch more than on any EHX pedal.

Preferred Settings + Usage:

Output - 3:00, sustain 9:00

Fuzz Effects Pedals

Behringer SF300 Super Fuzz

Avg price: $40.23

Overdrive Effects Pedals

Great BD-2 clone

I wasn't satisfied with a tube screamer, so I tried Cinders and this is definitely the overdriven sound I had in my head. Versatile for almost any genre and I'd trust the box to last some heavy stomping as well - it's heavy and sturdy.

Preferred Settings + Usage:

Tone - 13:00, volume - 13:00-14:00, gain - either 13:00 or full on

Overdrive Effects Pedals

Fuzz Effects Pedals

Pumpkin Pie

Being a huge Smashing Pumpkins fan, I love this pedal. When compared to the classic NYC reissue, this has more balls especially when you bypass the tone circuit. Build quality is solid as usually, though the sound is a one trick pony, you either love or hate Muffs. You have to play it into the clean channel, no amp gain or drive at all, unless you want the notes to choke.

Preferred Settings + Usage:

Volume - 14:00 Tone - OFF Sustain - anywhere from 13:00 to max

Chorus Effects Pedals

Fantastic clone

This is a really great chorus pedal. I bought it thanks to the infamous JHS video and once you dial the right settings (level not so high as you might think), it gives you that sparkly chorus 80's sound. Plastic enclosure is solid - what a surprise. The knobs are quite tight when you try to turn them, but that's a good thing. in my opinion.

Preferred Settings + Usage:

Level - 12:30-13:00 Tone - 13:00 Rate - 11:00 Depth - 14:30

Delay Effects Pedals

Electro-Harmonix #1 Echo

Avg price: $113.44

Great great great great...

Cool digital delay pedal - clean and pristine. Combined with the Muff you get that David Gilmour lead tone. The only issue is the blend signal has a natural volume drop (just like almost any other EHX delay pedal).

Preferred Settings + Usage:

Blend - 9:30 - 10:30 Time - around 14:00 Feedback - 11:00

Flanger Effects Pedals

Versatile flanger

This is a very nice flanger with the top-mounted jacks to save some room. When you take time to learn what each knob does, it's very easy to get almost any kind of modulated sound. I understand it's a clone of BF-2, but I couldn't get the infamous Prince tone out of it. Neverthless, it works as it should and it's built very well.

Preferred Settings + Usage:

Rate: 11:00 Depth: 12:00ish Manual: 11:00ish Feedback: 9:00
