Pedals that stack with the MXR MC-402

Dr. Scientist Frazz Dazzler

Push the Frazz Dazzler's low-gain fuzz with the MC-402's transparent, musical boost stacked in front for extra saturation without losing clarity.

ProCo RAT 2

Boost with the MC-402 first and the RAT's cutting low-gain drive gets pushed into fuller, more sustained saturation.

MXR Dyna Comp

Ahead of the MC-402's transparent, touring-grade boost, the Dyna Comp's compression evens out dynamics before the clean boost adds its own push.

Electro-Harmonix Bad

Put the Bad's subtle, resonant sweep after the MC-402's transparent, musical boost so the modulation colors a clean, defined signal.

Meris Polymoon

Run the Polymoon's stacked modulation and delay after the MC-402 so the effects track an already-driven signal. — goes in the amp's FX loop (or last, into a clean amp)

Neunaber Wet Mono Reverb Pedal

Let the Wet's muted reverb wash trail the MC-402's warm, transparent overdrive instead of blurring it upfront. — goes in the amp's FX loop (or last, into a clean amp)
