Hey guys, recently I've been experimenting with using a compressor directly after my TS-8 boost pedal to see what kind of tones I can get. When I first got my boost, I never thought to use them together, and since I liked the tone of the boost better than the compressor, I haven't been using the compressor at all for many, many months. I figured I'd try them together after a tip from a buddy. I got some pretty good results.
I recorded a quick little random riff with my Road King, came out pretty decent. I'm running an MXR 10-band in the loop to kill off sub-125hz frequencies, otherwise it just sounds like Satan is pounding on my fuckin' house with a sledgehammer from hell. (BTW, if you boost 62hz on the 10-band, the amount of chunking low-end that comes out is indescribable).
Let me know what you think, I'm gonna try doing some recording with my Mark IV tomorrow afternoon to see what I can come up with, hopefully I'll be able to crank it up a bit more as well if no one else is home.
