first in line is a cocked wah/MKI Bender, next is a Rangemaster. not pictured - I usually have Randy's Revenge somewhere in the chain. I power the delay and tuner with a Volto.

how do you make a rangemaster have 3(!) controls though?
The smallsound bigsound sparkle motion was a rangemaster with 5 controls! And I've breadboarded one with 4 that was great. I talk about doing that again every year and yet it's never become an actual pedal.
It's not really that nuts basically there's one "classic rangemaster" setting with the bias set in a particular position and the tone control (this is varying the input capacitor iirc) at max. Everything else does other sounds. Can be turned into more of a midrange boost and get a bit overdriven
idk for a treble booster it is pretty nuts! most of the old ones didn't have a gain knob! Does it do the rangemaster thing where it peaks at ~1k with the volume up and becomes a more literal treble boost as you roll off?
imagine finding out your son is your daughter & she's into noise music
I can't quite remember to be honest I sold it years ago. The one I breadboarded (silicon rangemaster) boosted roughly the same frequency no matter where the volume was if I remember right.
You're right it's a lot of controls "for a treble booster", because what they all tend to do is turn it into other things!!
Thanks!
Love the Volante. Could probably spend more time with it and make some rad presets, but I usually only use the sound that is dialed in and the looper. LOOOOVE the looper. The best part of this pedal.
