Thanks for the response guys, I get what you mean about the drums Ed, thats just how they ended up sounding. Literally set up two AKG C414's either side of the kit for the overheads. I just asked my Drummer about the crashes and he said he only used one side for most of the track, which would make sense as to why it sounds so 'one sided'.

As for the bass, I did the mix with my monitors connected to a sub... Maybe thats the cause of it being quite bass heavy, although I haven't had a proper go at mastering it yet. I also should have side chained the kick with the bass...maybe that could make it less bass heavy in parts.

Hey all, haven't posted on here for a while as iv been a busy one at uni!

Im in the process of creating an animated video to this audio track but in the meantime id like to hear some fellow bass players thoughts on how the track sounds/mixed etc...
I think iv pretty much got it how I want the track to sound like, maybe a few adjustments hear and there once iv finished the video.

*Update* It's been a few weeks since posting this topic and I have finally finished the video. It's a stop-motion animation that consisted of taking just under 4,000 photos and a bit of green screen footage and compiling it all in Adobe Premier Pro and Adobe After Effects.

Let me know what you think!

Up for sale my bass Gremlin overdrive pedal. It's got some really great sounds and is pretty easy to control.

The pedal has a switch, for switching between the two different filters. The two filters 'notch' and 'bandpass', make a hauge range of overdriven sounds as you can tweek the overdrive frequency range with each knob.
Each filter has a mix button, which allows you to blend the overdriven and clean signal together. This is a great as it allows any lost bass responce from the overdriven filter can be brought back!
The Drive knob controls the amount of overdrive and the level sets the output volume of the pedal.



Below are a couple of links for extra information if your interested in the pedal:

Looks like Dave's website is down for the moment.

This pedal is now in the process of being traded. If for whatever reason it falls through, you will have a PM tanuki

For anyone who fancy's a tube distortion pedal, THIS is for you!

I've taken a pic of Dave's website, although it looks exactly the same and is in perfect condition.



For all the info about the pedal, check Dave's website [url="http://www.davehallamps.co.uk/Products,%20VT1-MK3%20Bass.html"]HERE.[/url]
I'm looking for £100+ postage. It comes with a power supply that can be changed between 9v and 12v. Any questions, feel free to ask.

**Trades for other distortions/overdrives will be considered**

If I could have two signals going to my amp, I would be much more inclined to try out various guitar pedals like the blackstar. Unfortunatly I don't know how id even go about doing that without owning two amps.

Does anyone know if it's possiable to split your signal with one pedal then merge two signals together just before going into the amp input?

Thanks for the quick replies, with regards to the Blackstar pedals, my guitarist has a HT dual. I had a crack with it a while back and to be honest I thought it just sucked all the bass out of my pedal. EQ tweaking sorted that but I dont think I would buy one if I had to tweak the EQ like that every time I wanted to use it on a different amp.

English muff'n looks good. I like the construction of it and im sure the dual valve could work a treat. Slightly worried about the fact its mainly a guitar pedal though, going to need to find some samples for it or try it out.

Been checking out more info on the EBS over on talkbass and harmony central and it sounds too good, Might have to go for one! Off to the wanted section

Super Synth shounds awesome!!! Great reviews guys.

Has anyone got any idea about the Distorsore They say it's to be released in 2009?....humm

Iv been looking for a decent valve overdrive and was wondering what is out there.
Iv checked out the EBS website and heard soundclips from the EBS valve drive pedal. Sounds pretty much exactly what im looking for (nice amount of overdrive which can also supply some slight distotrion) HOWEVER it's very pricey.

Iv tried a DHA eq drive pedal and that was just lovley and again after a bit of tweaking I could dial in a great tone, although as cool as they are with the custom paint jobs and what not, im not to hot on their look.

What other valve driven pedals could I have a look at which would deliver a really nice overdrive, whilst adding more warmth but ceeping the clarity and tone of my bass in tact?

Mike

Come to Pappa!

Your more than welcome to any time Andy. That goes for anyone else who is interested too!

It's also worth saying that I'll be in the Croydon area over the Xmas period if anyone want to try this beast out.

Bump! This must go before Xmas!

I thought i might add, iv also got some pickups;

seymour duncan bass lines (neck & bridge)
Wizard 64s (neck & bridge)

Could add to this to the sale if the price is right

Up for grabs is my beloved 92 Fender Jazz. (Mexican model)

I can take more pictures, feel free to ask


It's in fairly good condition although it's been pretty heavily gigged and has a few dings on the headstock and in a few places on the bottom of the bass.

Comes with original pick-ups, Schaller tuning heads (including a drop-D tuner on the E string tuning head) and original bridge.
Also comes with a padded soft case and it's got almost new strings on it.

There is one problem with the D string tuning head though. When playing without an amp you can hear a slight buzzing noise. When you hold onto the tuning head it goes away. A simple replacement would sort that out nicely tho.

As far as the price goes, im going to go with £300 posted or nearest offer for now.. However if people feel that's too high or it should be lower for what it is, give me a shout and ill make amends.


Thanks for looking and any questions, feel free to give me a shout.

Still availiable! Sorry no trades on this anymore, cash only

Indeed, could be a nice xmas prezzi for someone!!

Bump

Still available

Bump with yet another price drop
