    [quote name='casapete' timestamp='1503124746' post='3355817'] Never got this album at all - too perfect and clinical for me, lacking in soul - runs for cover........ [/quote] Me too, it's just lacking in feel; terminally over produced.

    SSD for both drives. Uber big improvements. I run a 2011 MacBook with protools that was choking up using impulse reverbs then I put a solid state drive in. Bingo!

    Dear god, it's like the Human Centipede all over again. Except worse.

    Just finished my (3rd) phase 90 clone. Nice.

    Why not go modular and use 2 smaller cabs like Barefaced 1x10s? My cat weighs more than those!
  7. paul_5
    I had a GP7 head (100watts or so) and a pair of cabs (2103h and 1153) which I gigged with for years. I found myself always fiddling with the sound and never being overly happy with the sound. Then I got an Ampeg head. 😉

    [quote name='CameronJ' timestamp='1501613233' post='3345974'] Out of interest, for those suggesting octavers on fretless, do you mean specifically octave down or octave up? [/quote] Octave down. It's great fun to play Stevie Wonder lines up the dusty end with a sub octave. Try it, you might like it.

    A smidgen of overdrive to add some extra harmonic content and growl.

    Wow, he's quite a curmudgeon isn't he? Doesn't stop him being right though..,

    [quote name='TheGreek' timestamp='1501365547' post='3344329'] I showed him how to play that.. [/quote] I showed him how not to!

    Anything with flats (or the tone control rolled back a little)

    Ultimate bass wah

    paul_5 replied to X111j004's topic in Effects

    Uncoloured bypass (or true bypass) is a must; I've lost count of the number of Wahs that I've modded to true bypass for other players. Blend control is pretty much a necessity for bass - in addition I'd put some sort of hpf on the wah circuit to allow the user to tune which frequencies get affected by the wah. Just my 2p worth.

    Can't wait for this. I tried listening to 'Clean Your Clock' again this morning, but haven't been able to get through it; makes me sad to hear his voice on this album as it sounds feeble and a shadow of its former self.

    Ampeg SVX plug in?

    paul_5 replied to SH73's topic in Effects

    Give this one a try - http://www.pluginboutique.com/products/2266

    Freebie GK amp sim here: http://www.pluginboutique.com/products/2266 Not a bad sounding little plug in.

    My eyes!! My beautiful eyes!!!!!
  18. paul_5
    Chunk Systems Agent 00Funk will do that, as will an EHX Bass micro synth if you set it right.

    My home made clone of a Dark Arts Revelation Super Bass. Currently it's had the amount of gain reduced, but it's a 2 minute job to change it back to stock. [attachment=249280:IMG_0406.JPG] Really transparent overdrive that'll go from mild grind to stupidly filthy. Some demos of the real thing (at $149 plus import taxes) [url="https://youtu.be/AqBxMXwc77c"]https://youtu.be/AqBxMXwc77c[/url] Price includes P&P

    Digitech SDRUM!

    paul_5 replied to dannybuoy's topic in Effects

    Wha? Getting to play with a drummer who does what you ask and whose tempo doesn't fluctuate massively from minute to minute? How does that work? 😉
  21. paul_5
    I made an exact OD1 clone last year. I think it cost me about a tenner...
  22. paul_5
    I agree with Dood. I've played festivals/outdoor marquee gigs where the sound engineer (who's also in charge of the generators) wanted to know the power rating of our amps so that he could work out how many generators he'd need. I've also played outdoor gigs where there hasn't been this attention to detail and forward planning. Guess which ones the generators tripped out for?

    Might try finishing off my Phase 90 clone before rehearsal tonight. I NEED a phase on the bass for 2 bars of one song; I can already hear it in my head but not out of my speakers yet.
  24. paul_5
    I had great results from a Chord OC-50, but I think they're discontinued now. The EHX Octave Multiplexer is pretty good too.
  25. paul_5
    Yup. I really don't like the look of Les Paul (style) basses - they just don't do it for me, but that is one good looking chunk of wood. Well done Dudgeman.
