The Boss OS-2 is good on synths, particularly bass synth with the character control most of the way towards distortion as opposed to overdrive.

It's cheap and I bet you find a use for it.

Perhaps not for the faint hearted though.


P.S.

It's often NOT a good idea to have the synth output volume turned all the way up when going directly from synth output to pedal input as this limits the range of distortion possible. Also try running it from a power supply with less than 9v for some other interesting filth !
