Sounds great. £250 -
Best octaver pedal for 5 string fretless. Your opinion.
fretmeister replied to nilorius's topic in Effects
Anyway, I like the OC-5 best. It tracks better than the MXR even though the MXR has a slightly nicer tone to my ears. I always run an HPF after an Octave so I can leave it on even when playing the lowest notes. Everything octaved below a normal B (A string 2nd fret) then cuts off before it goes to the amp. Stops a lot of muddy nonsense. -

It took you 12 hours to reply to the previous post. Poor show indeed! -
Odd one: Which way do you put your board into it's bag/case?
fretmeister replied to lidl e's topic in Effects
If the pedal bag has a handle on the thin end... then that removes the horizontal alignment of the board in the bag as an issue. -

Never thought about it in 37 years of playing. -

Nice colour too! -
P vs. J vs. Ray4 vs. Yamaha BB comparison/poll
fretmeister replied to Vanheusen77's topic in Bass Guitars
I liked the ray best. That surprised me as I’ve been mainly playing P types for a while. I liked the PJ more than the jazz. The jazz just sounded a bit boring. -
Did anyone here actually buy a EBMM Joe Dart?
fretmeister replied to fretmeister's topic in Bass Guitars
Nah! I still want one! But with kids at university I just can’t do it at the moment. I am tempted to mod one of my less used basses to put a passive MM type pickup in it though. -
Spare. I’ll soundcheck with both to make sure all is well. If at the check one is sounding a bit better in the room for some reason, then I’ll use that. But I won’t swap during a show unless something goes wrong with my first choice.

High Fade. Love a bit of good funk.

It's normal for Boss Pedals. No - you cannot change it.

The little Mooer Ensemble King sounds bang on to my ears, with the advantage of having a level control. I have an old CE-2 from 1989 and the Mooer and they can be dialled in the same.

What's the fan noise like? [/Stuck record]

The Meatball designer is currently working with ThorpyFX and on their 'to-do' list is a new filter. Hopefully sometime next year. Thorpy's build quality is like I've never seen! Not really a surprise from a former bomb disposal tech!

I've been watching demos. The slightly gainy / drivey / farty sort of warmth is lovely. Hopefully the price will stay low until after Xmas and then I shall treat myself.

Damn you....

Headphones for practice and general listening at home.
fretmeister replied to Ramsay777's topic in General Discussion
For wired cans I have Beyerdynamic DT770 closed back and Senn HD599 SE open backs depending on what I need. Both good, but I do have a large noggin and the Senns are more comfortable. I use them with my Helix when recording. If I’m just noodling then I have the Boss Waza Air headphone amp thing. Amazing bit of kit. I’ve played far more since getting them. Expensive, and I was a bit nervous about buying them, but they’ve turned out to be a great buy. Boss needs to update the app though, it’s clunky. -
As said, Nordy will make anything you like as a custom order.
-
I still want one. Might sell off a bass to get the funds.
-
Nah. he’s ace.

Yeah - I get the feeling anyone turning up to that gig with a Kemper would be found at the bottom of a river weighed down by it!
-
I did my last gig. Funnily enough as I no longer gave a crap I think I played far better than I have for at least a year! It's not like Count Basie tunes are easy either, I usually have to concentrate quite a lot. Strange how the brain works sometimes.
