AB-Synth stacking?
Has anyone tried stacking 2 AB-Synths or running an ABS through an Upper?
Any demos?

While I haven't tried it, an ABS in an Upper WILL sound good because Uppers are amazing and make everything sound good.

mmmmm not Upper, not another ABS, but yeah, it will probably give Your ABS really sharp teeth.
Mine is in the Hugger loop, where there is also DOD MeatBox and some octave up fuzz and delay and other crazy shit. Giving it a considerable pre-boost brings out more distortion-ish upper harmonics - as if it wasn't a nasty box already.
BUT a pre-boost/fuzz in front also narrows the range of all the different oscillation flavors. The oscillation seems to work best with the bare geet/bass signal, to my experience. Actually, the manual suggests so also.


SO, basically, go ahead - find the right combination and pedal order for You.

Stacking 2 AB-Synths isn't something I'd do except for oscillation fun.

One of my favorite things ever is running the [Phantom Octave / Lo-Glitch]...which is mode 2 of the Arcade...into the AB-Synth. It's monstrous!

FoxRox Octron (octave UP) > AB-Synth 5k is amazing (but the oscillation part does not work in that setting).
AB-Synth 5k > Fairfield Circuitry Unpleasant Surprise is very cool.
AB-Synth 5k > Empress Superdelay (revers mode with octave up repeate) is awesome.
AB-Synth 5k > Dr. Scientist The Elements (as an EQ) is cool too.
