HEY EVERYONE,
looking for some cool passive or active tone stacks that you prefer and if you could tell me what you use them in and why your prefer them, i would love that, lets open a discussion about the best tone shaping tools for our DIY pedals
YOU KNOW WHAT THEY SAY ABOUT LARGE PEDALBOARDS....

.... I BET YOU WISH YOUR PEDALBOARD WAS AS LARGE AS MINE

I like using this one

Bass boost one way, treble boost the other way, unity in the middle, one knob. It can change the mood of a pedal completely, and doesn't take up control space.

I usually use tone stacks in my 'amp in a box' type emulator pedals.
and I usually start with a marshall or fender type tone stack, and change a few parameters depending on what i'm after...more mids ,less highs/ lows whatever...
but this program is a good place to start...

I have built a lot of distortion pedals, had Fender, Marshall, BMP tonestacks. But my favorite is Baxandell. To me, the most versatile tonstack. You turn the treble control you get more or less treble, and same with the bass.

yeah, baxandall is very good. does what it should do.

There is an EQ section in the schematics forum too.
