    This from the EHX website:
    Electro Harmonix Big Muff Pi with Tone Wicker — The Electro Harmonix Big Muff Pi with Tone Wicker taps into the sonic power of the legendary Big Muff Pi, but creates new tonal possibilities at the flick of a switch, or two.
    More Details:

    The Big Muff Pi with Tone Wicker taps into the sonic power of the legendary Big Muff Pi, but creates new tonal possibilities at the flick of a switch - or two. Use the Wicker switch to open up three high-frequency filters for raspy, sustaining distortion with top-end bite, or flick on the Tone switch to bypass the tone control for unabated tonal slam. Want the original Big Muff sound? Just switch off the Wicker and turn on the Tone. The ability to create your own personal Big Muff sound is what truly makes this the Wicked Wicker.

    Features/Specifications:

    True bypass
    The Wicker switch opens up 3 high frequency filters providing a sustain that is raspy and defined
    The Tone switch completely removes the tone control, providing you with a devastating broadband Big Muff slam!
    With the Wicker switch off and the Tone switch on, you have the original Big Muff Pi
    9 volt battery included
    Optional US96DC-200BI power supply available

    I was using a Boss ODB-3 into an MXR Bass Octave Deluxe for nice synth sounds with a very short-lived Electronica outfit. (bringing an envelope filter to the party created something quite special I can tell you!) I ended up selling the BOD a few weeks ago as I wasn't using it but I've decided to reinvest in one as they're excellent pedals.

    Initially I had some issues with tracking but after posting on this forum it was suggested I have my set-up looked at. After that there were no problems at all with tracking. Brilliant pedal.

    I've since purchased an El Grande and am using that with a filter for some heavy duty synth bass! I can't wait to hook that lot up to the BOD too! :)

    the El Grande looks great - just watched the demo.
    do you gate the fuzz or put a noise suppressor in between the fuzz and the filter?

    the BODs got a great sound! - are you not having the noise issue i was getting [i]at all[/i]? (its pretty subtle)...

    I'm going off my own topic here, but what about tracking, did you find one better than the other on that?
    [/quote]

    i've recently been investigating octave pedals...
    for me [i]by far[/i] the best tracking was the MXR bod, spot on every time.
    the aguilar and the boss oc-2 track about the same, which i would describe as ok tracking, not great but very useable.
    the aguilar in particular seemed to flake out on open strings and certain other notes, but i expect all these pedals might behave quite differently depending on strings and pickups etc. playing style too.

    i also thought the MXR was the best sounding and most synth sounding but it has a little noise issue - low level clicking when no note is coming through. another guy told me on this forum that theirs was silent but i demo'd a new MXR today and it had exactly the same issue, so not quite sure what to make of that. its pretty subtle but for me i found it a bit annoying.

    anyway, back on topic - i picked a zoom ultra fuzz but not had much luck getting a synth tone from it but only played around for about half an hour today. will try again tomorrow!

  6. the price seems to be high because its got no real competition?
    it seems like a fairly limited but effective digital synth, with very good tracking (from what i hear).

    in contrast the keyboard synth world is currently full of great true analog synths that would [i]exterminate[/i] the DI in terms of fat bass sound! (and price!)
    if only they could be played by the bass :)

  7. [sold pending]

    I've got too many pedals for strange and other worldly noises, so selling a couple :)

    This is a really great and interesting ring modulator and is very tweakable. It has a way to tune the ring mod to a note (push and hold switch) so its much more useful than a lot of ring mods. It also does pitch shifting over a wide range, controllable by lfo's on the unit or cv expression pedal (not included). More info here:
