FreqBox in the Chain

#206 in my grubby hands so.. you guys might say try it out in different positions but where do you find it sounds the best with your other Foogers?

There seems to be the consensus to run it before the RingMod but I remember someone saying the reverse.

TIA :slight_smile:

I like mine before the RingMod…I use the RingMod for either tremelo-style effects or high-freq “glass” on top of my sound. Whereas the FreqBox has a certain “Fuzz Box” quality to me and that’s how I’ve been using it. For clarity, my entire audio chain is currently:

Voyager → Z.VEX FuzzFactory (fuzz) → MF FreqBox → MF RingMod → Frostwave Resonator (filter) → Small Stone (phaser) → Deluxe Memory Man (analog delay)

Mind you, there are also CVs being sent all over creation between the Voyager/FreqBox/RingMod/Resonator which is cool and helps keep motion in the sound.

I think the freqbox sounds best first in the chain, like you would on a regular synth (osc section first). Then you can manipulate it’s sounds with the other foogers. Plus, having the hard sync of the freqbox get a clean signal from your guitar or keyboard is a plus, so if it’s first in line on the chain that really helps. BTW, it sounds amazing with my wurlitzer 200a!!! It sounded pretty cool with my sequential prophet 600 too but the wurly and the freqbox go together like chocolate and peanut butter!!

I’ve run my nord electro through it as well and I have to agree - a great sound!
