The Elements is DEFINITELY a box of fuck yeah! All that's said is true....

I personally like the low gain setting with no diodes (middle), medium bass-cut (up), and mids switch in the middle the best. What is errbody else's favorite settings so far?

Because of the clean blend, I actually placed it further back in the chain to allow some grit from my overdrive and fuzz to come through.

Arrgh, that reminds me. I promise to get a BASS demo of the Elements up by the weekend!

I kind of like it near the front :idk:

I'm weird about the order of my pedals though. Very much so OCD. Also it's easier for me to plug an expression pedal into it where I have it.

I only ask because I'm planning my setup like this:
Dark Boost
Elements
Baby Thundaa
Colorsound Bass Fuzz
Bluebeard
Behemoth II
I'm not quite sure if the Elements stacks better with dirt before or after it.
I've got OCD when it come to how well a pedal stacks.

Yeah, I sold it to pay for my Thundaa. The CS Bass Fuzz became a TAFM.

That's a good question about where to put the Elements in your chain and I guess it just really depends. The Elements is buffered in and out, so it shouldn't cause any weirdness in your chain wherever you put it.

I think it depends on if you want to use it as a low gain or high gain kinda pedal.. I'd probably stack my gain stages in order of low to high but that's just a general idea. There's no rules here, man! *smile*
