    That's how I'd do it except switch the places of the OD and Flender

  • I always keep an overdrive of some sort right after my wah, in the chain, but on the board it looks as if it's before the wah...

    so right when i'm about to kick in the wah...i throw the od on, and then the wah this way when i'm cocking the wah back and forth i'm sure to cut through the mix

  • Don't switch the OD and Fender Blender. I think you had it right the first time.

    When put after my fender blender, my tubescreamer kills the tone of the flender and kind of squishes the sound - and I imagine most any OD will do that to some extent.

    I drive the sound with the tubescreamer, then fuzz the driven sound with the flender, then boost the volume and crunch the sound up with the greedtone last (because the flender's output level is kind of low despite it's nastiness).

    It's all up to taste though. You'll get different sounds with every order.

    If you decide to switch it, that's only if you're using it as a booster (which is what I do).

  • thanks guys, i'm gonna switch my flanger to sit after the blender.

    i was surprised how low the blender is when the boost is off.

    pearl jam and toast........have you any ideal settings for the blender?, im still playing with mine but i guess thats the nature of the beast

    I have everything (except the volume) cranked. Also, I sometimes have the tone at 7, sustain at 10, blend at 8, and volume usually sits at whatever is tolerable.

  • Good settings off the top of my head..

    1. Turn everything up.

    2. High Volume, low sustain, blend at wherever you want it. (good to have one of those 'boosters' here).

    3. High Sustain, low volume..

    You get the idea. Judge the amount of distortion and nastiness you want and set the blend, then adjust the volume vs. the sustain to get the right.. volume and sustain.. for your purposes, then adjust tone to your liking.

    It's also cool to crank the blend (esp. well with the spinal tap setting) and roll back the tone knob(s) on your guitar. The octave effect really comes through. (Use delay or reverb!!).

    +1...

    Binaraul was recorded very oddly though so it's very tough to figure out.

  • obviously he has it drenched in reverb, delay and wah on top and alot of panning

    finding it hard trying to get a 'pure' amp sound coming through like mike does but maybe i'm still searching for the right setting :)

  • There is ONE note of that song that sounds AMAZING. It's RIGHT after the first chorus and before the solo. I know the note but even with the flender, it's close to impossible to find it. I'm gonna try it with my wah, delay, and reverb.

  • the best way i describe it is 'thunder' its damn awesome. i remember the first time i heard NAIS and thought 'what the hell is that effect?'

    i just love it. i'm gonna try later on too!
