I didn’t mention crap. I said that lightweight basses sound lightweight. The resonance is different, naturally, and the deader deeper tone of a heavy bass can’t be quite replicated, in my opinion. But no, not crap, wasn’t even implied (my main gigging bass I would class as lightweight)
-
...my bad. Remove Fender from the equation 😂
-
Tone. Every lightweight bass sounds like a lightweight bass. There is something special in the lows/low mids with a heavy body with a good dense bit of wood.

Interesting review, thanks! I am tempted to check it out, although the idea of another scooped mid tech 21 pedal doesn’t initially fill me with much enthusiasm. They tend to sound great solo’d in the bedroom but not so useful in the real world.... Obviously the extensive mids controls on the X will get it to cut through anything, but can the DP3X do a decent impression in that sense?
-
An update for me. Happy to have Inertia back on my board 😀
-
How often do people change settings mid gig? I would have thought you would just have a preset for each variation and leave it at that, I doubt ill ever adjust a knob on the C4, except for maybe Level, and that will only be due to programming error.
-
I think the relevant blocks are the same?
-
It doesn't seem cheap enough to justify getting this over the C4, given this is basically just a stripped back C4...
-
No takers for the Ivy yet! I am interested in trades for more muff like fuzz pedals or light gain pedals, then again try me with anything -
X7 gone, Poison Ivy still available.
-
Darkglass Hyper Luminal Compressor. Excellent compressor for bass, huge upgrade over its predecessor with the 3 different modes and suite control over a range of parameters. Includes first class recorded shipping. -
Woo, my preset made the cut 😂
-
oOo, surprised! What does this mean for the sixer?

The brbr deng though...

Darkglass Microtubes X7: SOLD Flattley Guitar Pedal Bass Poison Ivy - Mint Condition Excellent Germanium fuzz pedal from a Britsh pedal builder. My review on the Flattley website:- Excellent fuzz pedal for bass. Classic Germanium design, adjusted by the Attack knob, with a crucial wet/dry blend. LOTS of tone packed into these, with anything from very warm, woolly, vintage sound to a harsher, hifi, more gated fuzz. Works well with active and passive basses (have a play, it’s very responsive to what goes in) and stacks really well with other drive pedals; I use them to tame the high end in the more extreme settings and give the clean tone allowed through with the blend a grindy edge. Fan of Muse? You’ll like what this can do. I’m a gear head and have owned countless fuzz pedals and this is up there with the best of them. Better still, you’re supporting a small Uk builder! I commissioned a custom Poison Ivy with a gorgeous oil slick metallic finish, very high quality feel and looks fantastic on my otherwise very black/grey board. My need for this kind of fuzz ended whilst it was still being built, so it's never really been used for its proper purpose. £259 new, but full disclosure I did get the benefit of Artist pricing so, despite it being spankers and only a few months old, Ill let this go for £165. And a little clip I made:

If you're asking that, I can only assume you don't go to many!

Ah awesome, thanks! 🙂

Yeah I realise, I guess I just feel guilty for downloading and not publishing many. Only one (basically unusable but fun Anti-Guitarist Fire) uploaded by me so far... The OC-2 ones sound great!
-
I’d be interested to try an FI with the updated firmware as I found the tracking awful on the one I had, but editing via midi with that quite nasty interface compared to the slickness of the Source audio software and USB is a no brainer for me. and, unfortunately, I’ll forever associate boss with the sounds the Syb-3 made! 😂
-
Must admit that I am generally leeching somewhat with this preset community as a lot of this is entirely beyond me. I miss the simplicity of the Deep Impact still 😂 I am finding making a patch from scratch quite difficult. I have seen two but I thought I read somewhere that someone was working on doing a preset mimicking the Deep Impacts 9 voices? Also, I am looking for a good set of envelope filter sounds; I loved the presets on the Soundblox unit but again I’m struggling to dial in my own, finding it difficult to set sensitivity/depth etc.
-
Like I say, it doesn’t remove the noise completely, so yes it is likely just that it’s very efficient...or it’s magic. End result is all I am concerned about, and end result is a very clean (well, no, but you know what I mean!) high gain sound that sustains throughout the natural decay of the note, as well as the basic muted noise gating action you’d expect. I love it 🙂
-
*disclaimer* I have no clue of the internal mechanics of a noise gate, so I don’t even know if it’s possible to be analog or digital... 😂
-
I still think it’s Analog...have you seen something somewhere saying Digital? Not that it matters in the slightest, but power consumption is very low for digital, and the fact the manufacture refers to it as “power hungry” seems to indicate it’s analog, as I don’t think anyone could say 40ma is power hungry for digital. The Sentry is 100, for example. Just to be clear though, it does 100% remove noise around the note, you still seem to be doubting it 😂 I’ll try and record a sound clip at some point to demonstrate.
-
I assumed analog but I don't actually know, it only needs 40ma. Here is a good thread which comments on the noise reduction whilst playing e.t.c. https://www.rig-talk.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=194020
