This pedal can be powered by the included ECB004 18-volt adapter or the DC Brick, Iso-Brick and Mini Iso-Brick power supplies. Try both if you can - you really can't go wrong with either one. The MXR Ten Band EQ lets you tune your bass or guitar rig in seconds, and it's been upgraded with noise-reduction circuitry, true bypass switching, a lightweight aluminum housing, brighter LEDs, and a second output. It seems that pedal kind of filters out fizz even with all the sliders at zero. Surprisingly, I bump the highest slider down every so slightly with my Boss and find that it cuts all the fizz necessary. Both increase the grind and clarity of your riffs in a mix, but I feel like 1.6khz is a little thicker and meatier.įinally, I always cut fizz with the highest slider on my MXR (16khz), which really helps reduce fizz to nothing.

I like boosting 100hz a little bit more (with the Boss pedal), as it seems to introduce a hint of sub-bass, still without making things muddy.Ĭutting 400hz with the Boss or 500hz with the MXR does indeed reduce the cardboardy, cocked-wah mids, but I find that the upper end of that can still be nice to have in your tone, so the Boss wins there as well (for me).įor the upper mids, I like to boost at 2khz with the MXR, and 1.6khz with the Boss. Boosting 125hz a bit increases the thump without introducing mud.

The lowest two sliders on the MXR are useless, as guitars don't really produce anything in the 32 hz range, and 64hz is too low to be useful (aka - mud). The key to getting "my sound" is in where I attenuate the mids, and where I boost them, as well as where I want the low-end to punch. Last year I bought a GE-7 just to try it out, and lo and behold, that is the one I find myself using almost exclusively now.įor me, the differences come down to where the bass is affected and how the mids sit. It really takes that amp (and all other amps I've tried it through) to another level completely. I ran an MXR 10 for a lot of years in my various 5150s and was quite content.

But they have distinct flavors, as their selected frequency bands are different, plus who knows how wide the "Q" is on their respective sliders? Both the MXR 10-band and the Boss GE-7 will achieve what you want.
