Hey guys!
I'll cut to the chase!
Last month I bought my first effects pedal, a Bass Big Muff. I love it! It sounds great with my amp and bass guitar and was the exact sound I wanted.
BUT!
As you might have already concluded, using it when I'm playing live at a gig, it really doesn't seem to break through and it gets completely lost in the mix and doesn't seem to exist! (This is also partly down to having a VERY heavy handed drummer lol)
I would really like to solve this problem and have a 50/60 quid budget, I really can't go any higher due to christmas being around the corner!
I have ofcourse been told about the Boss LS-2 Line Selecter which seems to be able to solve my problem but is there another pedal a little less in price that would simply just help my clean bass line blend with my fuzz so it finally has some impact?
Also, why I'm in the presence of bass gods! Is there any advice you could give to a budding bass player on how I can achieve a better sound with a heavy drummer and 2 overdriven guitars? I would really like to know what sort of EQ setting you would recommend to hit in. I like a big bass presence but I do also really like the 'twang' of the mids. I just feel the EQ spectrum of my band is very 'full to the brim' on mids. Should I prehaps ask my 2 guitarists to mix up their EQ so it evens out the playing field?
EDIT: I also have a Tuner Pedal so I'd need it to be True Bypass.
All replies are greatly appreciated!
