Wampler Ego Mini for guitar - Zoom MS-60B for bass - For my DAW (Logic Pro X), I use the compressor
model included (it's amazing), but sometimes use Waves CLA plugins with SSL compressor.
My Mini Tumnus IS GOLD, but it's an overdrive, sadly.
If I pick a pedal , I like to stay with a company that has a good rep for quality. I am still a firm believer you get what you pay for. I don't like the odds with a cheaper Brand, it seems like a 50-50 chance if you get a good one or not.
I had a Mojomojo -- and MANY others
the amp/pedal pairings vary and with the Lil Sexy 5 watter ---
THIS makes AMAZING tones----
however it doesnt sound very good with the Mesa Subway Blues---or the Marshall -- and the F30 and Peavey bandit have absolutely NO NEED for additional overdrive as both have literally STUPID levels of gain -- the Bandit to a point of total UN USEFULLNESS after a level is reach -- cranking all the knobs to 10 on it is like a nuclear explosion of LOAD and need never bee done by any human ----
I do use this little hairy devil to add "flavor" to the subway blues----which is a MUCH MUCH cleaner single channel Mesa.
