I've been experimenting with different settings with my Maz 18 NR with my Basic Audio Scarab Deluxe fuzz and just wanted to know how other people were setting there Maz to play fuzz pedals?

When using a fuzz with the MAZ, I like to have the master up pretty loud, the mid all the way up, the cut at zero. Everything else can be wherever.
I use either of a couple of EQD fuzzes.

Thanks!
What I'm really trying to find is a setting that provides a really nice clean tone with the pedal off and then a great cutting wall of fuzz when I engage my pedal.
Actual settings would be greatly appreciated.

Does your MAZ have the tone bypass option? If so, that is a great feature for use with fuzz. You would dial up you clean tone the way you want it, then switch out the eq and engage the fuzz for face-melting fuzz tone. You can set the level of the fuzz a little lower to balance out the volume difference if needed.
My opinion is that a fuzz sounds nice into an amp that running kind of hot and has some high treble rolled off. Otherwise, the fuzz can sound too bright to my ears. All just subjective, of course!

If your fuzz has a ton of boost (like a fuzz factory) you can set your amp's clean tone on the border of breaking up. This way, the fuzz will push your amp - allowing it to sound full. If your amp is too clean, or your pedal doesn't have a lot of output it will generally sound trebly and shrill.
I run a tonebender mk 1.5 copy into mine as my main dirt. The same pedal into by band mates antidote sounds shrill and thin since the amp is never set close to cooking
