Default Guitar...

So I don't know if this is in the right spot, but here goes:

I love using my GT-6 because it has this very synth like patch. I'm also going to purchace the Line 6 FM4 Filter/Synth Modeler Pedal. Does anyone know any other guitar pedals that do simialr things?

these ones really don't give you lots of filter options like those two previous ones you mentioned but the options they do have are quite good:

the Alesis Philtre:

Ibanez PM7 (Phase Modulator):

The Electro-Harmonix Micro-Synthesizer is pretty rad, I really like plugging my guitar into my Moog Rogue and using the filter/modulation on there for effects too. Mutron makes some mad modulation pedals. I believe Maestro made a really cool one too.

guitar->wah->MXR blue box->overdrive.

your wah works as a "cutoff" type sound and the next thing you know, your guitar is a TB303. I love it. Turn the wah off, play high on the neck and you sound like nintendo.

nintendo hunh? that's pretty cool. i've never tried the blue box, but i hear that it puts out a tremendous amount of bottom end. it's a fuzz and octave in one.

guitar-->overdrive-->distortion/fuzz-->whammy-->delay.

The first overdrive overdrives the signal of the distortion/fuzz, giving you over the top distortion which gives you instant sustainable feedback. with that, you put it into the whammy, crank that puppy up about 2 octaves with the delay and slowly back down. it sounds like a 747. it's one of my favorite tones on my pedalboard.
