Guitar Effects Pedal Setup/Settings

bro, all u need to do is increase the mids of your geetar. U can go 2 possible ways with ur setup : you can directly increase the mids of your eq ala inverted v and just compensate the sound with your metal zone, or you might want to go semi flat with your eq and boost the mids all the way up with your mt-2. in your mt-2, ur mid freq should be all the way down, while u go way up with the mid selector. I know a couple of geetar players from the more prominent bands use this setting.

Well, before you go for that, it matters really the geetar,pup as well as amp u are using so u shud be familiar with ur tone and try to replicate it depending on ur amp. this is esp. true when u have gigs, since most of us don't have the luxury of bringing our own big amps on gigs.hehehe

a noise suppressor is quite a great help too...i use it as a booster for my sound.it's particularly helpful when you are doing the "chugga chugga", but not so much for leads i think. I prefer to keep it off since i like the sound of pick scrapes and the little nuances that comes with playing leads. The gives the "feel" and "vibe" of a player - kunuhay ba.lolz

or better yet, i have a better solution for you...you can get rid of the extra pedals if u mod ur mt-2,just search for keeley mods on the web. If you have a friend who knows how to read electronic diagrams, then you can do it yourself. better yet, you can check out sa philmusic.com for peeps who do mods on all kinds of gadgets for a minimal fee. the more prominent modders are bamf and ricabb777,u can never go wrong with these guys. They make your stock pedals sound so much better.

whichever path u choose bro,have the best of luck.

Boosting your mids, depends really on what your guitar pickups are..PAFs, these would definitely work with the scooped mid response of this pickups, but with Evos, i wouldnt do that lol, and super also true to the super tele pickups.

Yes the keeley mods and analogman mods pedals make stock pedals some of them sound much better i have the DS1 mod,

master bry onsa man sad ng evo's og tele nga pups? is MT-2 + DS-1 = clear solos? mka advise kag other tips para klaro jud imo solos esp if mg sweeping.. libog jud kos setting ani.

MT-2 + DS-1? e dungan ug on para solos? ngak lol, Grg270 imu guitara? stock pickups pa? STD pups sa asia tawag daun powersounds sa? kai if mao na imu pickups taas naman na sila mids, practically maka ingon ka balance sila paminawun, kung wa budget gamita nalang ug graphic eq na flat ra pero kwaan gamay sa imu lows

MT-2 + DS-1? e dungan ug on para solos?

agree ko kay bryan, isug na kaau kung dungan na xag on, with a guitar setup like that.. IMHO, ds1 is capable for a solo as well as MT2, you just have the right settings and depends sa imong music na gina tukar. you have the ge7 right? the mt2 is has 3 eq di nga lng graphic.. pero as Primal said, to cut through the mix.. boost the mids..

pro IMHO, dirt naman gud ang ds1 and mt2, i suggest having a drive + dirt, it works for me.

hello! nice thread!

share lang ko =) mao ni akong set-up sauna. na mugna ni tungod sa "midrange" nga notion.. ang rhy channel sa tonebone naka boost og +7db and mid, nya ang lead ch. naka boost og +12db.. and akong BB Preamp wala nako gi-gamit as booster pero as OD and biased towards bass side and EQ nya. ang problema lang lisod kau e-timpla on-stage labi na nag dali2x naka ug 4 ka channels imo e-level @ the same time.. pro ok ra japun basta midrange! LOL! bahalag mura nag baho paminawon ang lead..hehe
