if you haven't yet, try the band delay from the time factor. I was able to get some pretty awesome filtered sounds from it. just turn the delay down all the way and the mix to 100%.

Do that.

The Wahoo isn't all that either.

I hate you guys. I apparently can't live without a micro synth.

3 Leaf Audio Proton, Wonderlove (no 3Leaf although the Wonderlove does sound good)
Aguilar Filter Twin (this actually sounds pretty fucking good, no expression though? Fucking shit)
Black Cat Mona Deluxe Vintage Wah (meh lol)
Dreadbox Epsilon, Lamda (interested in the Epsilion but the Lamda has that horrible hiss that makes me want to shoot myself)
Dwarfcraft Devices Attack Release Filter, Gears (hard want)
Frostwave Funk A Duck, The Resonator (I wish, hard as shit to find
Gigahearts FX Meatball (too many knobs)
Henretta Engineering Big Zapper (this sound ok, but I do want a least a few tweakable knobs)
Ian Marks Meatball (what is this? LOL)
Maxon AF-9
Moog MF Drive (looks hot)
Mu-FX Tru-Tron 3X (this thing sound badass)
Robot Factory Brain Freeze (sound great)
Sonuus Wahoo (gives me a woody but I wonder how hard to use it is? I DUMB)
Wilson Freaker Wah (it's aight)


I love the suggestions guys!! Thanks so much.

FWIW, the Big Zapper pedal mentioned here has tons of knobs and available tweakability on the OUTSIDE of the pedal. You must have it confused with the Green Zapper. ;)

tiny square pedals with no knobs...and more!

Probably. Lol. Is it low pass? Or what kind of filter?

Made a pretty bad ass sounding one with my H9 last night. Not perfect but pretty damn good.

Thanks for all the love shown.

I have a mooger mf101 and a real Lovetone meatball.
Meatball is more versatile while the moog is easier to dial
The worst thing about the moog is no reverse sweep :/

I also have a big box qtron, that tends to overdrive a bit which I don't favour...

I'm with you, i like using both and they are both great tools but the meatball is sooooo tweakable for a much wider range of incredible sounds. its really not that complicated at all considering all of the knobs/dials once you sit down with it for a couple minutes. its also the best sounding of any i own/played. if i didn't already have all of the lovetones i'd be looking to you to build me a lovetone clone, your builds look incredible and you own the actual pedals so you know what they should sound like.

Yeah for the most part once you figure out the relationship between attack and decay the sens blend and colour are largely set and forget, and I tend to use full bandwidth on lp, so then only vary the up down and frequency range..

Ten controls looks hectic but it's quite easy in practice.
Regards buids, your comments are Very humbling, thank you.

I'd look into the LAL CP.


I'd skip out about 5:20 in this one. I had no idea what I was doing for the first few minutes.

Fuzz in front, fuzz after. I really like what it does at 5:50. Got to play with those settings again.

2:43. With expression pedal.

Can work great as a tabletop pedal too. Play with those pedals you got from the secret satans! About 2 min into the video. The crackling sound is just my lousy cables.

I'm so horny right now for that Lastgasp. DAMN YOU!!!!!!


So I did not realize this until reading on Exotic's (because there's a lot of velcro on the back of my Robotalk), but it has dip switches on the inside. MY GOD. Flipped them bitches and this thing is fucking INSANE. I love it!!! UGH! I feel so damn dumb.

I still want to try some of these though. Soooo stupid today. SOOOOOOOOOOOOO very, very stupid. LOL

Why, that thing sucks ass, one of the worst, non heavy / deep / fat filters ever, it's bound to sound like absolute crap on bass, or I'm missing something.
