John Mayer's use of the Q-Tron+ has been quite prominent since the Born and Raised/Paradise Valley era. Songs like 'I Don't Trust Myself', 'Wildfire', and 'Rosie' use this envelope filter. Also, since joining Dead and Company, the pedal has been essential to recreate Jerry García's tones.
But dialing and achieving his tones with this pedal has been quite frustrating for some people, so I wanted to share how I set mine to dial those tones and how this pedal interacts with other classic JM pedals.
