This one is a bit tricky... you can, of course, put the EQ in front of the overdrive stage, but then you would probably also need one after the overdrive because a lot of what you are hearing is generated by the overdrive stage and will be present even if you have EQ in front. An interesting thought, but two lots of EQ makes the pedal a bit unwieldy and expensive.sclitheroe wrote: ↑Fri Apr 02, 2021 2:39 amI'm probably quite wrong in my thinking, but I sometimes can't help but wonder what the EQ stage would have been like in front of the clipping instead of behind it - mostly with an eye to being able to tighten up the bass just a bit when desired, while preserving the overall gain structure. Sometimes it's just a bit too loose on the bottom end, although most of the time that is also it's appeal.
Edit: my rationale is the the BSD is unique in having an active EQ - so with EQ in front of the clippers, you could decide how much clipping occurs for a given frequency range by driving more or less bass or treble signal into the clippers.
Makes me wonder if the dry blend is actually what I've been looking for
Perhaps the "add dry" will do what you are wanting... you will be able to try in a couple of months
