  1. Not a serious suggestion above, just fitting in with the theme! What about a wah pedal? That’s the only thing I can think of that could come anywhere close to what you’re describing.
  2. Maybe, but nothing wrong with that! I’d just bang a Spectracomp in front of the Ultra and call it a day!
  3. It is mine, and I've owned a ton including the Meatball and Mutron!
  4. I had one but sold it! Great pedal, should've kept it in retrospect. Would still like to try a Red Ripper though just out of curiosity. The TWA DynaMorph / MiniMorph are meant to be similar too, also some of the Source Audio distortions can pull off a similar sound.
  5. Sold a pedal to Paul, instant payment and smooth transaction!
  6. Maybe people are using those trays as cheap pedalboards?!
  7. So you got yourself a YYZ then @Al Krow? A few tips: - Tight switch is always in for me. It cuts the lows going into the dirt section. The clean side is EQ’d to be dark and bassy, which more than makes up for this. - EQ knobs affects the dirt side only. So don’t be afraid to back off the bass here either and bring the lows back via the blend. - Mid control is before the dirt, bass and treble after. So boosting mids gives more distortion, and it acts a bit like the character knob on the VT but at a lower frequency.
  8. The issue with the Peg for me was lack of gain control and difficulty reigning in the master volume. Other than that it sounds amazing. The switch flips your gain between clean and dirty. With my P bass the dirty setting was spot on, but it was too overdriven with hotter basses. I would have liked an in between setting, or better still a knob! When the gain is boosted you need to keep the master just a hair above minimum for unity gain and it’s very touchy to get it in the right spot.
  9. Is the Hartke first in that clip? If so I might have to look out for one!
  10. First question to answer is analog or digital. Digital = flawless tracking but a slight latency/delay, and octave up possibilities. Tone is just the incoming signal pitched up or down. Analog = no latency delay, but wobbly tracking on low notes (but the idea is to use it when playing higher up). Tone is generated so can sound like a phat synthesiser. Then when it comes to analog, you have the classic Boss OC-2 that sounds awesome soloed, and the OC-5 / Octabvre / MXR Vintage Octave that copy it. Then there are analog ones like the EBS and Aguilar that sound more natural but blend in with the dry signal better. If you’re looking to shake the foundations, go for the Aguilar or a DOD Meatbox!
  11. Glad you like it! The Fwonkbeta and Discumbobulator ended my filter search, although I'm curious to try the Spectrum (although I didn't like its predecessor the Manta) and an original Mutron!
  12. Always wanted to check one out to compare to the Prunes & Custard... Well after Mike Kerr bigged it up and they got hit with tons of requests, they are reissuing it! https://www.instagram.com/p/CTCoYmtLNBu/?utm_medium=copy_link
  13. I hear the BDDI v2 is a good one to go for if you like a lot of deep low end... Also don't be afraid of engaging the speaker sim when using an actual speaker, I have it engaged regardless as it just sounds better with it on!
  14. That's quite a low bump! Some of us are running HPFs specifically to get rid of everything under 30Hz! I forget which button it is, probably Bite - doesn't that engage a subsonic filter? Never had a problem with low end loss with the VT, but the drive can overly compress the low end, that's where you really notice the increased openness and thump with the YYZ.
  15. Yeah, I have so many pedals sat unused in a drawer, time I moved them on! This is surprisingly capable as a mild overdrive / dirty boost when set correctly!
  16. Classic tubescreamer-style overdrive tuned for bass. So good I bought it twice. Buy this off me so I can buy it for a third time later! Excellent condition, comes with original box. £100 posted
  17. Faux double tracking with a variable 'tightness' control to add a slight random element to the delay time... great for thickening things up or splitting out to 2 amps. I used this with a Royal Blood style octave up fake guitar sound to split the signal to 2 guitar amps and it sounded absolutely monstrous. Mint and boxed. £55 posted
  18. TC MojoMojo - meant to be a guitar pedal, but no shortage of low end here! One of the very best pedals (regardless of price) you can get for a fat old school Motown/blues tone. Mint condition and boxed. £30 posted
  19. TC Ditto looper, mint and hardly used. £50 posted
  20. A slightly juiced up version of the Beta, this has more gain and has more upper mids / treble than the original. It still has a lot of crossover with the original though and you can get those same smooth vintage tones from it! £100 posted
