This idea opens endless possibilities; these pedals identify some useful combinations.


Subzombie

                     SE-4

A simple, fast control arrangement that produces a huge array of sounds -- sweet and creamy, or harsh, or brain-sucking ... and in-between. This combination provides 3 distortion signals in closely spaced gain increments and double-inverted phase.

Mix Muff

TOTAL CONVERSION MODIFICATION
of Big Muff Pi

This one mixes three signals that tend to be more different from one another, requiring a more complex control scheme to get the most from it. Derived from the original gain stages, the signals are Clean, Overdrive (antiphase), and Distortion (normal Muff).
