Another approach uses BANDMIX to blend the input signal between low & high bands. The XOVER point stays fixed; distortion is added to both the LOW-DRIVE and HIGH-DRIVE controls. COMPRESSOR and LOW BOOST are folded in downstream, along with ‘just a touch’ of FILTER-POST cut.
At the expression pedal heel, the BANDMIX is set to LOW 99+HI 15.
Expression pedal toe is at LOW 15+HI 99.
Distortion character, and apparent pan position, are continuously variable along the expression pedal sweep [ BANDMIX ]. I left in a little ‘leakage’ from the opposing band at each pedal extreme. A rhythmic foot (at less aggressive settings) can approach ‘harmonic tremolo’ sounds.
Glitching effects are possible: just ‘silence’ one of the two bands. Controlling the expression pedal mappings with an Aux Switch can really help there (instant band switching). XOVER + BANDMIX – latched together via expression pedal – is also a dynamic combination for fine-tuning via foot control. Lots of power here.
