Another favorite of mine is the Red Llama - I only have a clone but I hope it's similar to the proper one else my recommendation is useless

recording at SSR in Manchester

... in case anyone is interested in hearing the guitar one on bass I have a weird thing on my soundcloud here: [url="https://soundcloud.com/cheddatom/xxl-bass"]https://soundcloud.com/cheddatom/xxl-bass[/url]

in addition to playing about with the order of effects in series, I really like blending different effects chains in parallel, although you need extra kit to do that, just thought it was worth a mention

damn, thought so, I have the guitar one and it is good but would really love a go of the purple one

what's your budget for the interface? And mics?

what a great read, excellent! I was talking to him about his pedals outside a gig in Manchester but was too drunk... He said to me he was using the Bass XXL (the purple one) but I can't see it in your pics and you call it "Tech 21 XXL" - can you confirm which one he's using?

cool, let us know how you get on stevie

how are you going to split the signal before it gets to the pedals? I'd just go with an LS-2

I know quite a few people do it, but my thinking was that boosting the full range ouldn't give you an alternative to a channel switch, which is what it sounds like OP is after. It would give you a big low end boost, on top of distortion, as opposed to just dirtying up the signal while maintaining a constant level. Having said all that, I've just checked out the Streamliner 900 and it looks like the control you're talking about is just a gain control, so I'm wrong, you do just want a boost. Alternatively it's just a push switch so it'd be fairly easy to wire that up to a jack on the back you're not using, and plug a footswitch in to that.

I reckon you might be better with a treble boost, or an EQ to boost just specific frequencies. A normal clean boost might give you too much low

The AW-3 is a really cool pedal. I lost mine

I've been playing just 6 strings for years. I've had a couple of people who clearly think I use them just to show off, but who cares? I know why I use them, and how to use them, that's all that matters.

I don't know of anything that would do this all in one box. An obvious solution would be an LS-2 or similar blending two chains, one of which has an EQ pedal with mid cut, the other has dirt pedals with a bass and treble cut at the end of the chain. I think there'd be a lot of demand for this sort of thing... I think the J-Lo dirt pedal just distorts mids and leaves the bass and treble alone? But obviously that's just one pedal and you really need 5 or 6 dirt pedals to play with

[quote name='Sibob' timestamp='1358898529' post='1946957'] Really cool setup! Although tuner at the end? That would annoy me, having to turn pedals off to get a true reading, best at the start IMO Si [/quote] Would distortion significantly mess with pitch?

well the DA2 sounds perfect for bass where people sometimes struggle to get higher notes to cut through The MO2 sounds like what I've been doing with distortion combined with EQ and compression for ages... I can't wait to try them in a shop!
