During the ÄÄNIPÄÄ session held from August 4th to 8th, 2012, Stephen O'Malley used the DOD FX32 Meat Box. This information is documented on the Ideologic website.
Juan Alderate demonstrates his FX32 Meat Box in this interview from Premier Guitar. At 5:16, he explains, “When it hits those subs out there it vibrates everything on stage.”Then this is the Meat Box and Meat Box is just sub. It’s just speaker popper… When it hits those subs out there it vibrates everything on stage.”
The “ba, ba” bass part on “Subump” is a sample of the DOD Meatbox. I was messing around with it one day and posted it on Instagram like, “Check out the Meatbox when you really distort it. It sounds crazy.” After I posted it, I was like, “I have to use that.” I tried to recreate that sound in the studio, but I couldn’t, so we basically took my Instagram video and sampled it—that’s that sound.
"Right now I'm using mixer feedback with filters, ring, DOD Buzz Box, DOD Meat Box, and a Korg multi-distortion unit."
