Divide By Zero

An original sound

This is a great patch for modern worship church players. With this patch you can go from clean to light overdrive to medium overdrive to thicker medium overdrive. Running the drive pedals in parallel yields more clarity than stacking them when they are both activated, IMHO. The LA Studio Comps at the end of the chain are always on. In general, I find that adding this comp to the end of the chain livens things up while still allowing your playing dynamics to come through. There are a few neat features that I really enjoy: sine/square wave switching for the tremolo on FTSW1, delay mix (35%-50%) on FTSW8, parallel overdrives, and different delays and reverbs on the left and right cabs. The delay mix switching is especially useful for filling out lead parts. I set my global EQ with a 2.2dB boost in the mids at 2.2kHz and a 3.5 Q spread, 100Hz low cut, and 8kHz high cut. This works great with the FOH system at my church and flat EQ on my two Helix channels on the board. YMMV, obviously. The signal path is thus: Pitch Wham 0 to +24 (activated by EXP1 toe) > Dual Pitch -12/+12 > Deluxe Comp > Teemah / Scream 808 (in parallel) > Divided Duo > Tremolo (wave shape sine/square switching on FTSW1) > Volume pedal (log curve) >> [LEFT (top)] Tape delay (1/4) > 1x12 Celest 12H > Plate Reverb > LA Studio Comp > Simple EQ (solo midrange boost) >> [RIGHT (bottom)] Adriatic Delay (1/8 dotted) > 1x12 Blue Bell > Octo Reverb > LA Studio Comp > Simple EQ (solo midrange boost)
