I'm close to copping one of these two pedals, probably new. Can anyone help with these question, please?
1. If you've tried both, how close, really, is the EH to the Mu-Tron? I've read on TGP and here that's it's very close but maybe not exactly equal. Is it close enough to save the $$ on the EH or enough of a difference to spring for the Mu-Tron?
2. How is the triggering on each? For the Tron Up model on my Line 6 M13 (which gets remarkably useful tones, if not precisely like the original), unless I precede it with a compressor, I'll be killed by the high transient spikes. With the compressor, it's perfect. Will I suffer from the same outcome with either of these two pedals and thus also need to precede whichever one I cop with a compressor/limiter?
3. Where do you place your Mu-Tron or Q-Tron in your signal chain? More specifically, when're you're using a guitar without an on-board 'Blaster and are including a 'Blaster-in-a-pedal effect on your board, do you place the 'Blaster pedal first, before, or second, after, the Mu-Tron or Q-tron? (Same question, I suppose, for any other type of clean boost you normally place at the front of your chain.)
Many thanks!
