Do you prefer your ring mod pre or post fuzz?

[bdunlap]

And why? I'm debating on a certain something

[smile_man]

pre i suppose. post for noise.

[Gunner Recall]

I don't have a dedicated ring mod, just a few modulation pedals that get ringmod-ish, so I guess post fuzz?

[Bellyheart]

Post. I like the ring mod to capture the fuzz and dominate it.

[bigchiefbc]

Yeah, I gotta say post. If it's pre, I don't think it really sounds like a ring mod at all. Then it just sounds like you're playing out of tune

Both. See, this is why you get more then one fuzz pedal.

I usually have a Frequency Analyzer sitting in-between my dirt pedals that way I can do both. I use it pre-dirt for a more subtle effect and post-dirt for more obvious ring mod sounds.

[floating opera]

think i'm gonna try this pre & see what happens. seems like like a good either either way.

[CBGB]

Post.

It's ace.

But come to think of it I've never tried pre-....

The Postess with the Mostess.


But I'm starting to think....
The ring thing can get pretty subtle.

[cheesecats]

I do both, depending on the pedal. I have a couple of Atomic Clocks (Fredric Effects) that are over the top--I use those post. I also have a couple of Grumbly Wolfs (again, Frederic Effects) that are a combination distortion/ring mod--I use those pre. The effect is more subtle and is more noticeable in the upper register. And I use a Fuzzhugger Phantom Ring, which is pre, of course. There's a video on my Vimeo page called isotope blues that demonstrates the Atomic Clock, which is post fuzz.

But what are you post guys doing with the carrier bleeding of most Ring Mods? Its getting really loud when you run it into a fuzz...

[magiclawnchair]

right now i run phantom octave>randys revenge with mix dimed>ilftaur(true bypass klon clone) for epic bells!!!

run that into fuzz for epic fuzzy bells!!!



i used to have it last, then i got the ilftaur and found that it worked best in front of everything!!!

but i guess it depends on what you are looking for...
