Illustrated instructions! Nice one.

I find your attitude towards physical labour lazy, and your attitude towards animal labour sickening.

Heh, I used to have a headphone splitter on my board and felt very embarassed about it.

Does anyone just carry their combo/cab? I used to carry my peavey combo from the car to the stage and back no problem.

people will recommend the custom cable builder OBBM on this site.

[quote name='thisnameistaken' post='510307' date='Jun 10 2009, 04:02 PM']I think what TaySte meant was to put the Y cable before the Brown Dog, send one split to the Brown Dog input, and the other to the 00Funk envelope in. Same solution I suggested using an LS-2 really, but much cheaper. I'm always a bit sketchy about using Y-cables, but not for any rational reason.[/quote] Oh yeah....deeeerrrrr [quote name='thisnameistaken' post='510307' date='Jun 10 2009, 04:02 PM']But I would try it with a Y-cable first like TaySte suggested. If it works well enough then it'll be much cheaper than the LS-2 solution.[/quote] +1

[quote name='Gunsfreddy2003' post='510296' date='Jun 10 2009, 03:51 PM']Sounds complicated b ut if it works then great - but the LS-2 is another £75 which is a pain! Can you advise what a Y cable is - not heard of that before. Where do I get one from? Also any advise on the crank type jack pedal connectors - good ones and where to get them from?[/quote] A Y cable is two jack cables joined together at one end by a jack plug.

[quote name='tayste_2000' post='510293' date='Jun 10 2009, 03:48 PM']Surely just a Y cable will do output of Brown dog into ev and the input?[/quote] Yes but then the envelope input will be post Fuzz.

Yeh that's way simpler, I was thinking to use the LS-2 to bypass the brown dog and switch the envelope signal, but there's not need as you can use your original dry signal for the envelope input.

OK, get a Y cable, plug the Y end into the envelope input on the agent. Plug A into the envelope output on the fuzz. Plug B into Send B on a Boss LS-2. Plug the fuzz into the LS-2's A loop. Set it to switch between A and B. EDIT: The only problem with this is you might loose some volume when you're on "A" (bypassed fuzz) i'm not sure, but you could bring down the level for loop B to compensate for that.

Arrrrgh!1 that's not right, it's making my head explode! I will figure this out in a min.

Get an A/B-Y box, and switch between A->Brown Dog, and Y-> Agent Funk input AND Envelope input.

Can't you get the brown dog to send the envelope output even when bypassed? EDIT: If not, you would have to make a relay to run off the brown dog's bypass to switch a buffered split of your signal into the envelope output. It seems pretty stupid that the envelope output feed doesn't keep running when you turn the fuzz pedal off.

I think most people grow out of that sort of attitude after high school. I use a pick a lot but most of my favorite players use their fingers exclusively. The main ones I can think of are Justin Chancellor and Pat Badger.

Everyone knows Helium sucks tone.

[quote name='bilbo230763' post='504836' date='Jun 3 2009, 04:48 PM']We aren't disagreeing. You sound good, you groove. Just because you have no pedals doesn't mean you don't sound good. Just because you have a bad amp, doesn't mean you don't sound good. Bad sound = less convincing groove, IMHO. [/quote] It took me a bit of thinking but I get it now. Perhaps i'm becomming stupid!

Tone is very important but "that's where the groove comes from; the sound not the notes"? No!! I can groove through a sh*t amp without my pedalboard. I may not enjoy it as much, and probably won't play as well, but i'll still be able to "groove".

[quote name='OldGit' post='504634' date='Jun 3 2009, 01:11 PM']BTW what's east 17?[/quote] Don't google it at work!

IS that your "bass hat"? Everyone I know would be reminded of east 17 by that.

Just so you know and don't stop posting - i'm following this with keen interest! Cheers.

I just noticed this thread and thought i'd share my experience.... I've always used lots of pedals and distortion. I always thought what I needed was one amp for clean, and one for my pedals. One day I actually got to try it, and it was awful. So, I tried running the full range of my pedalboard, blended with a small amount of clean, all into a large full range bi-amp rig. That sounded amazing. So, perhaps a bi-amp rig will get you the sound you want, but I would do your crossover after your pedals. From the above I assume you've just got the full range of your board into the full range of 2 amps, which will no doubt sound massive. Nice!

Nice one!
