  1. I might have priced that a bit high. Let’s say £225 instead.
  2. Another super-powerful Source Audio pedal that I beta tested but then have never used. I’m trying to declutter my brain so listing stuff I don’t need. 10-band, dual-channel EQ that can be used as standard EQ or parametric. Bands 1 and 10 can be reconfigured as shelving filters. Band 10 can also be made into a resonant band pass or low pass filter. In as-new condition. Pictures to follow as it’s packed away currently. Price includes UK delivery via Special Delivery, fully tracked and insured.
  3. Having a bit of a gear rationalisation drive. This is another pedal I beta tested for Source Audio but have never really used since it launched as I’m not a big user of distortion. Far better for it to go to someone who will use it and for me to declutter my overloaded brain. It’s a fully featured multi-band, dual-channel distortion pedal with advanced multi-band tremolo and the same dual-band compressor that’s in their Atlas. It’s an incredibly deep pedal with enough options for years of exploration and inspiration. However, if you find programming daunting, you can simply download other users’ patches from the cloud via the Neuro app. It will do “standard” distortion as well as some really synthy foldover distortion. It’s in as-new condition and is the limited edition (100 units worldwide) with the very special paint job that isn’t on the standard versions. Just to be clear, the pedal is exactly the same as the standard versions internally, it just has the rather lovely textured paint and patterning. Price includes UK delivery via Special Delivery, fully tracked and insured.
  4. I’ve been feeling hugely overwhelmed by my pedals of late. Every one that gets added seems to exponentially increase the choices available and I’m finding that quite debilitating. And this coming from someone who is co-designing a MIDI controller. I’ve decided to pack everything away for a while and see what I end up missing. Think it’s probably time to shift a few things that I have never really used too (so keep an eye on the classifieds as there should be some nice bits of gear appearing soon). I’ll just get one thing out at a time for continuing testing Mortrix. This is my very minimalist setup now.
  5. Livestream has had the audio edited to remove some vocal artefacts.
  6. My favourite Dan album. Pretzel Logic is a close second.
  7. Do try. They did reply so hopefully it’s been sorted by now.
  8. Not sure. I’ll email them to get it fixed.
  9. Live now: https://www.youtube.com/live/xo5WE3RwCVI?feature=share
  10. Tune in tonight.
  11. I wasn’t talking about palm muting, though this can also be used if desired. I was talking about regular string muting which is a part of normal playing. i.e. how you stop unplayed strings from ringing out and how you bring a played string to rest. So a combination of having left-hand fingers resting lightly on unplayed strings and lifting a finger from a fretted note cleanly whilst quickly putting down other fingers lightly on that string to prevent any note-off noise. Then in the right hand, a combination of thumb/finger anchoring on unplayed strings and the Gary Willis right-hand finger muting technique whereby after you’ve plucked a note with one finger, the alternate finger is placed on that string to mute the note. Using all these things together where needed does vastly improve how the FI plays. Not only that, they are all useful tools in normal playing to help control note length, articulation and clean playing (no unwanted notes ringing out).
  12. Certainly, being able to mute at will when appropriate makes one a better bass player. It’s an integral part of being able to control note length. Nothing terribly controversial there. I actually found using the FI a useful practice tool for diagnosing some technique issues I needed to work on.
  13. Great stuff. It’s already available in the cloud along with the hundreds of others I’ve made and shared. Bear in mind, you may not get instantly good results. You do need to really concentrate on muting technique to get the best out of the pedal. It’s worth the effort as it’ll make the pedal respond better but will also improve your general bass playing.
  14. My favourite too. This was supposed to be blue but I changed my mind, hence the joke on the headstock.
  15. Not the greatest pics but give an idea.
  16. A really good P bass. Still, brand new strings so will take a few weeks before the clank of fresh flats disappears.
  17. Font has been shrunk slightly:
  18. Light is rubbish in my room with artificial bulb.
  19. Possibly. Depends on the date and transport.
  20. I posted two yesterday. I’ve literally not had a moment to play it since picking it up. Really busy weekend. I went straight from Jon’s to a meet-up with a guy about a potential future music tech collaboration and am only just on my way home now. Pictures will follow when I get time to have a proper play.
  21. It’s lovely.
