I think jwar has a dual Elements pedal. I'd also love to hear the effect of stacking them!

There's a guy who posted on TGP recently who's running three Elements in a row. He said he had no plans on it, it's just that the Elements kept bumping his other drives until it was all Elements. By the by, they were all the same finish and looked killer side by side by side.

I've never stacked two (have one that I use constantly though), but am sure it would be amazing. If I wasn't so happy with my current drive lineup, I'd be buying another Elements to pair with my current one.

I've got two but they're set up a/b in a looper, so I can't stack em. But I'll be changing that. Going to move low gain elements last after reverb and delay.

Wicked!

Maybe we all should have just gone in together and bulk ordered more Elements from Ryan.

OH! Sorry I mean I do! :)

I also have a second Bitquest on the way. And a Dual Mini from Brian at Smallsound Bigsound. I'm all about the dual sexy pedals.


I can make a new demo. My last couple weren't very good IMO.

Any requests as to what you'd like to see? I'm a bass player, keep that in mind.

You can use the notch filter on the BQ and the expression if you don't have a wah :D

Gaw man, a dual BitQust setup! Isn't that like screwing with the God particle or something? Is a black hole going to finally consume us all?

I think you're gonna enjoy the duo, Ian, and thank you again! I think you should set both to high gain mode, dime the gains, and then either dime or zero the mid knobs... that'll be the most fun I reckon.

Geeez I love Rob, what a guy! Those 3 look pretty cool and I think he uses them to cover all the gain ranges, low to high. It's funny hey, sometimes I read posts from people saying they couldn't get the Elements to sound good with any gear they tried, and then a guy like Rob thinks it can't be beat... the highly subjective nature of sounds. I gotta say though... I think Rob's right. *big smile* *Ed McMahon voice* Hheeeyyoooo!

I like this idea.. let's do 4 Elements each, for earth wind water fire.. it'll be cool...

So funny you have 2 BitQuests, that's perfect! I'd love to hear a dual BQ demo, I've never plugged in 2 at once!
