  1. Randomly found this while laying in bed ill, it’s a pretty good decription to being a musician in a worship setting
  2. Screw press? Strawberry and cherry juice?
  3. looks amazing - and enjoyed the blocks and frets video from Manton too
  4. A c4 combined with an Eventide H9- The Butyl pedal
  5. Maybe they have taken the best bits of two pedals and smashed them together? so a popular boost and a modified blues breaker- SA super morning Glory Hard On Or a Canadian fuzz from Fairfield and a chase bliss thing- Randy Mood
  6. The big problem we have is poor @Quatschmacher has 5 more days of this!
  7. That’s dreadful - Want me to have a look? No promises, but I can try trace the circuit out (in Farsley)
  8. Sssshhh @tauzero I forgot compressors!
  9. I disagree - for an amateur PA operative a digital desk with everything pre-set and saved discourages thinking and learning - and often will hide any problems behind layers of screens - the bass EQ might be behind 2 button presses - on an analogue desk it's always infont of you. With an analogue desk you plug everything in, zero everything and have to go across the channels getting things roughly right - it's a process the PA person has to do each time - and as they do they are learning to listen, learning to mix and how EQ works - what I've found with digital that the non musical operatives will take the "John set this up and saved it so I don't want to touch" approach
  10. I once bought a 1985 thumb bass that arrived loose in a cardboard box!
  11. This is a good example of why digital desks can be too powerful for amateurs
  12. that's great! Question, have you found it at the end of the chain, you know, and finally... ?
  13. Wee pedal clearout of things not being used on my board... Zoom MS70-cdr £55 posted gone Picked up recently on here to play with reverb and delay and stuff... loaded it up with bass amps etc as you can using Zoom effects manager, . Fantastic compact multi effects and ability to chain things up is lots of fun. Only selling as picked up a H9 - which in some ways is more limited, and compare like for like there's not much distance between them. Value for money its unbeatable, and Not many pedals have their own reddit Bright onion loop switcher £25 posted gone I put the Zoom in this, it is a loop switcher, it switches a loop in an out with a passive switch. It's not like a looper that will turn you into Ed Sheeran. It just turns things on and off. Mosky Dyna compressor £20 posted It's a 1590a one knob compressor. It compresses things, sounds quite nice and actually through hole parts inside! Probably more useful on guitar than bass but I've had it sat on my shelf for ages now and it's not doing anything. Irn-Bru clone of a Fairfield Barbershop £80 posted Clone of a Barbershop MK1 (Ie the big box) but in a 1950b (MXR size) - I like this and built it a few years back on the PedalPCB PCB measuring and matching JFets to the spec wasn't fun, used at church a couple of times (ie not hard gigged) and then replaced with one of my clones of a Smallsound/Bigsound Mini which is the same Topology. SolidGold FX Beta is in same group of low gain overdrives that add a bit of hair to your sound. I like this and don't really mind if this stays sat on the shelf, but it's in the photo so available if anyone is interested. Trades, you can try me Multiple pedals and the postage gets cheaper, pickup in-between Leeds and Bradford if you'd like. Questions, just ask.
  14. I almost think you should go with chunky Nuetrik L jacks rather than those silly lightweight EBS ones!

    The end of a big lump of 4*2 ish steel bar.
  16. One tuner.: love my Turbo tuner st300 accurate and pleasant to use. One drive: I like JFet drives, I really like the barbershop clone I built - but the Iron man (SS/BS mini clone) I built blows it out the water. one fuzz/distortion: Not really got much love for bass fuzz, Creation Audio Grizzly bass really impressed me but I wouldn't end up using it as a fuzz. one envelope filter: C4 one octave: Fave so far is Valeton OC10, OC2 clone, but I prefer sound to an actual OC2! one modulation, Providence Anadime Bass chorus - for me, this pedal is perfect. Deep, but simple. one preamp (doesn't have to have DI out) Colourbox v2 - if I bought a Warwick hellborg preamp when Thomman blew them out I would have had a pedalboard made with a 1u rack in it - but I didn't so this is as close as I can get. one pedal that does reverb or delay (or both) not enough exp. other than zoom, Line6 stuff. The H9 is nice but still learning how to use it musically. and one wildcard... every time I jiggle the board around I take this off, and then put it on again. The clone I made of the Fairfield shallow water. The thing is subtle to the point of being useless, and can go places that don't sound right - but it's so so musical sounding (JFets again) I use it far more than makes sense
  17. So you have a limit - and can only pick one thing in each category... One tuner, one drive, one fuzz/distortion, one envelope filter, one octave, one modulation, one preamp (doesn't have to have DI out) one pedal that does reverb or delay (or both) and one wildcard... So 9 pedals maximum, what do you choose? (and why?)
