EDIT 16/12/19 I’ve ordered a Lakland PJ so this is now definitely for sale/trade. These were a limited edition in 2016 and very hard to get hold of. This is in outstanding condition. There’s some swirling on the pickguard now from slapping and a light lacquer mark on the back of the upper horn (can only be seen by tilting to the light at a certain angle). Very light marking (normal playing wear) from rubbing against clothing on the back that is only visible from a particular angle. (I’m being really picky.) There is no buckle rash. Set up by Jon Shuker a couple of months ago with Rotosound Swingbass steel 45-105. Weight is 4.25kg. Comes with the fender ABS hard case and all case candy. Pickup in Sheffield preferred. (I might be able to deliver in person to central London, Bath/Bristol or Darlington combined with a visit to friends/family but only if paid for before I travel.) Possible trades: Stingray SLO Special (single H, 2EQ) Fender USA Jazz Deluxe (pre-Elite model) Fender 75 reissue Jazz (Japan or USA) Lakland 44-64 with jazz neck Lakland 44-60 Sadowsky UV70 Sandberg California VS4 or TT4 Rosewood boards only, please. In natural or white (or Honeyburst in the case of the stingray).

I’m pretty sure I mentioned this to you: MIDI Pad 2 on iOS devices. £3. I have mine set up as below. Each button is a program change number and jumps straight to the stored patch. You can also set it up to send multiple CCs and a host of other stuff. On iPhone the formatting is too small for one page with 128 buttons. There are a couple of improvements I’ve suggested to the coders (such as the option to have the last-pressed button remain highlighted).
-
This is true, often backing off the input volume is key. Certainly for the patches I sent, you can leave them set like that and then adjust input volume until the desired effect is reached. Part of the problem with retriggering is that there are no separate controls for attack and release. The Enigma fares better at this and I’ve dug mine out, got some pretty nice results. You can get an external tap tempo switch cheaply if needed.
-
Also, you can hook up to an iPad and use something like Knob Lab to control all the parameters easily. It’s even possible to map several parameters to one knob (with specific ranges for each) to vastly change sounds on the fly!
-
If you just need two presets then you can set the hub to write the patches to the hardware preset buttons and just stomp between them.
-
That’s right, normally the link comes through automatically as soon as you’ve registered the product to your account. Which reminds me, I need to register mine! Did you email [email protected]? I got a response about a feature request I sent to that address. Failing that, it might be worth contacting someone like Adam or Amos directly (usually first name in front of the @moogmusic.com).

I meant the single-line melody. I’d like to try an EWI sometime as flute is my main instrument. Waar in Nederland kom je vandaan?

Crazy. It’s already dirt-cheap. -
I enjoyed that. What was the lead sound on the outro played on? Are you Dutch/Flemish? Or did you just like the word?
-
Nice one, you’ll love it. Once I finally get around to downloading the editor, I’ll email you some cool patches I’ve made.
-
Yup, the Doom is an excellent dynamic octave fuzz. -
Not essential I suppose but to be honest I wish I’d got one way sooner as I lost a bunch of presets I liked because I wanted to save others I was working on. Having the hub takes away that problem. It also allows the use of a regular expression pedal, which can be mapped to any parameter; this means you can vary the sound of a preset easily.
-
I’m at the other end of this at the moment. I have 3 fantastic octavers (Octabvre, MXR BOD and Octo-Nøjs) and I'd like to let at least one of them go and am having real difficulty deciding.
-
128 actually, plus the two hardware presets. Definitely get a hub if you’re getting a Manta (there’s no difference, other than cosmetic, between the Soundblox V1 and the Neuro).
-
A phaser, but if you get a Manta then you’ll have that covered.

@GisserD, @funkydario -
12 inch radius on these which is a very flat board. -
@drlargepants these have a 38mm nut and are great basses as @BassBod can testify to.
-
£85-95 is usual though I think one went for £75 once on here.
-
Indeed. The two I’ve sent sound utterly boring on their own but sound amazing with octave and fuzz in parallel running into them.
-
They are different but there’s some overlap in the sounds they can create. I’ve owned both and I ended up keeping the BOD and selling the Octamizer. The BOD is the tightest tracking octaver I’ve played and is incredibly good value. I found the Octamizer a bit sluggish sometimes in its tracking whereas the BOD never misses a beat. For me, feel is also important.
-
Glad to hear it’s sorted. Have you switched it into “extended mode”? If not, you should as you get 24 filters in total. I find I mostly use the 4-pole filter but there are some really nasty-sounding others in there. The controls are very interactive and can be quite extreme. For example, when programming a down sweep envelope you can often only use the “slow attack” side of the mod source dial, the speed knob no higher than half. You then need to take care to not set the frequency too low if using a large depth setting as it’ll just go straight into sub territory and stay there. Since I can’t share preset files with you until you get a hub, try replicating these from my screenshots below. When using the Octo-Nøjs, try experimenting with its volume levels as it has a big impact on how the filter responds, often you’ll need to back the volume off. Definitely get a hub otherwise you’ll kick yourself when you lose sounds you’ve created. @BenR24

You should also do it with Octamizer and Mastotron in parallel.
-
That is a good price on the Octamizer and similarly priced to the excellent MXR BOD. I’d get the Octamizer now and try out other stuff next to it later. You’ll easily sell it again if you prefer something else. The cheapest I’ve seen a used Octabvre for was £180 but that was a one-off, usually they are about £200. The mini version about £160.
