I've had trouble with mine. I can't find anything searching the EHX forums for blogger. I think I may have fried it anyway.

No one has mentioned Timmy C!!!

Fair enough. My band don't like it, so for rough demos we do just use the PA, but when i'm trying to get a "proffessional" sound I force them to wear headphones. The review was great by the way!

Maybe you should be practising with just headphones for everyone? No PA?

You use a line-out from a CD player to drive the unit? If so, just use a line-out from your mixer.

I suppose you're thinking that you might have different pedals on the effect out from the big muff? The Y setting on the morley pedal isn't really a mixer, it just splits the signal. I would have thought it'd work to be fair but obviously there's an issue. I used to get cross talk when using the same pedal to switch between (and both) two guitar amps. Using an LS-2 which has an active mixer eliminated all that. Do you have two inputs on your amp? You could send the two outputs from the muff to the two inputs on your amp?

Si can't you get trigger type things that stick on to the skin? Or would that not be appropriate for feeding the sidechain?

You're not going to use the mic so it can sound awful. It's just to feed the side-chain. You should be able to find some crap mic for £10 or less off ebay.

I don't know if there is a pedal compressor with a side-chain input. I think you're probably looking for a rack unit. You could have a footswitch on the kick drum mic so that when you don't want the compression, you just remove the input from the side-chain.

You could get a little clip on mic or trigger type thing to add to the kick drum when you get to a gig, seperate to the soundman's mic.

yeh, when SS came out I couldn't beleive he was doing it with fingers. That made me learn to use 3 fingers. EDIT: Not that he does! It's just there's no way I could do that with two fingers.

Where did you get the animato??

it should be normal until you turn the feedback loop on. You can get a momentary footswitch for less than a fiver from maplins, it'd be dead easy to swap if that's what you wanted.

new born used to kill my left hand when I was young.

a fun one is Zvex wah probe. If you put it in with a dirt pedal then the wah "plate" controls the pitch of the oscillation.

I use mine a lot. I really like it with my whammy set to octave up and some delay. You can get some pretty mental sounds, depending on what you have to put in the loop. Just try everything and have fun

Why does the OP imply this bass is going to go on sale? I did read the article, but can't find any mention of it?

most multi effects will have a few "types" and you can run one of each type at the same time. I think in the Zoom, you have amp, pitch/synth, modulation, OD, compression, EQ, reverb You can use one of each at the same time. So, you could have octave, chorus, compression, but you couldn't have wah chorus compression, 'cos the wah is in the same "type" as chorus. I'm not sure about the specifics of each "type" though

[quote name='Rumble' post='1087076' date='Jan 12 2011, 07:16 PM']Are you able to layer effects with the Zoom B2 and the Boss ME50-B?[/quote] If by "layer" you mean in series, then yes, but if you mean in parallel, then no.

[quote name='Doddy' post='1086324' date='Jan 12 2011, 01:24 AM']Well,I wouldn't say that he'd moved on from Primus-what with them touring right now and with a new album currently being recorded. I really like his solo stuff though.I've got a soft spot for the 'Holy Mackerel' album especially. And his London gig last year was killer.[/quote] Yeh I was there too, it was amazing. I really like the latest album that they played a lot of too. I don't really understand why some people would like early primus and not his latest solo stuff. It sounds like a natural progression to me. I can't wait for the new album!!

If you want cheap, [url="http://www.behringer.com/EN/Products/AB100.aspx"]this[/url] might do it. Otherwise SFX make one I think. what's up with the LS-2?

My shock and dismay at the op cannot be expressed in words. I'm just going to leave this here

I don't normally like the sound of tweeters, they always seem very harsh. I do think that amping the lows and highs seperately can help. When I record bass DI, i'll often have a go at EQ, compression etc in the computer to try and get a sound I like. I can never get as good a sound as when I duplicate the track and use EQ to create a crossover. I can't explain the reason for it, but that's my experience.
