Ps: I'd also like it to have a limiter to control any spikes that might potentially damage my ears too.

I'm currently running a wired IEM system using a 3 Leaf Audio Enabler as a preamp. This all works fine and is nice and portable, however I would like a more high end rack setup. What I'd like is to mix 2 signals (my bass and the aux send from our desk), have some form of EQ on board, nice high sound quality and all in a 1u rack. Does such a thing exist? Most of the studio headphone amps I've looked at are for several pairs of headphones - I only need one. None seem to have any EQ. Any assistance greatly received.

[quote name='flippyfloop' timestamp='1423750265' post='2688591'] I love mine. Wish I could afford to buy this as a spare. I'd be lost without it. Best thing for me is the ability to assign any effect parameter ( or multiple ) to the expression pedal. Something you can't do with many individual FX. Victor Wooten uses these as well, nuff said. [/quote] Thanks for the kind words. To follow up it appears its so good that its already sold - not to Victor W though. -
Only bought this a year ago from Andertons. It’s served me very well but I’ve started using a wired system and bought some expensive moulds that work much better for my gigging needs. The system includes the body pack, transmitter, Power supply, rack ears, SE215 Earphones, spare foam eartips and the respective Shure branded bags. This is all immaculate and as new. I have only used one set of the foam eartips so there is a range of sizes unused. I will of course remove the used ones before sale. Whilst the SE215’s are as new I understand that people might want to use their own headphones or buy some new ones and so I’ll happily keep them as spares and knock £50 off the price. I’m happy to post as I have all the original packaging, manuals, warranty cards etc. Bearing mind the RRP is over £700! I’m asking just £350 for the whole kit including postage in the UK!

*SOLD* Great multi effects for bass in very good condition, worth owning just for the synth! It’s fully working and includes the power supply and all the original packaging. Whilst on its own it can be a bit fiddly to program, when combined with the free fxfloorboard software it a doddle: [url="http://fxfloorboard.sourceforge.net"]http://fxfloorboard.sourceforge.net[/url] I liked this board so much that I recently upgraded to a GT-10B and so this is now surplus to requirements.

[quote name='Bottle' timestamp='1423142016' post='2681292'] @ the OP. Have you thought of using the Akai Headrush Looper/Delay pedal in Tape Echo mode? It has four discrete outputs - one for each 'virtual' Tape Head, so you could route output 1 to the rest of your signal chain for further processing and the Mix output would then just have Tape Heads 2,3 and 4 but not 1, so could be fed into something else. The pedal has a tap tempo function as well. Here's the user manual: [attachment=182965:Akai_E2-HeadRush_OM_153058.pdf] HTH, Ian [/quote] Sounds interesting, do you mean instead of the Freeze or alongside?

[quote name='lefrash' timestamp='1423133953' post='2681111'] Why not a floor midi controller triggering a laptop or somethin? Seems alot of faff. [/quote] Please expand.

Get Unrealbook: https://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/unrealbook/id370135173?mt=8 Its the best thing for gigging. You can take photos using the iPads camera of your existing charts, import pdf's of other charts. And you can arrange them into set lists for each band. I take it to every gig! so useful.

Having thought about it the way I have my signal chain running at the moment all I need to do is mute the incoming signal once the Freeze has taken its snapshot. On a momentary switch I can just release and the signal will be un-muted. My other idea was to add a short delay to the muting, but it looks way too complicated to make. I'll have a bash at a few things and see how I get on
-
Thanks Paul 5, that looks a lot more difficult that I alone can cope with. Perhaps time to enlist the work of a professional methinks!

[quote name='paul_5' timestamp='1423080472' post='2680538'] Press it half a second later? Dunno, small timer circuit (simple resistor and capacitor affair) then use a transistor to do the actual switching maybe? Or a transistor and a relay (is that over egging the pudding though?) [/quote] Can you point me in the direction of a simple timer circuit and / or transistor switching? I've not come across either. Many thanks for the reply
-
Hello peeps, not been in here for a while. Following a discussion in the main effects forum, can anyone enlighten me as to how I could make a small circuit that would allow me to delay the switching of a momentary switch by about 1/2 a second after I'd pressed it? Thanks in advance.

[quote name='cheddatom' timestamp='1423042421' post='2679802'] ahh, balls, yes you're right, as soon as you let go of the ABY switch, it'll turn the freeze back off. What if you put the freeze into latching mode? Does it stay on after one press of the switch? If so, in this mode, you would just have to tap the switch again when you want it to turn off [/quote] Yes, I'm latching mode that might work. Ill mock something up and see how I get on. Thanks for all your help Cheddartom!
-
Actually, sorry, on closer inspection: if I press the new switch the freeze will capture and the organ sound will be heard. If I release the switch the freeze will stop and the organ sound will mute. correct?
-
[quote name='cheddatom' timestamp='1422971123' post='2678978'] OK, so it looks like a standard momentary switch. If you were to get an ABY pedal, replace the Y footswitch with a momentary one, then connect the switch poles to the switch poles on the Freeze, or to the two solder points on the white cable, your ABY should then switch your freeze on and off, as well as switching the Y on and off at the same time. Then you just mix the two chains back together with an LS-2 I'd do this temporarily at first before making any holes in the pedals. You could get a momentary footswitch from maplins for £5 and an ABY off ebay for £15 or so [/quote] This is very interesting, you've gotten round the problem of switching the effected channel very nicely. If I can figure out how to implement it into my signal chain this is a goer. Many thanks!
-
[quote name='cheddatom' timestamp='1422971187' post='2678979'] I've not used the freeze myself, is it not instant when you turn it on? [/quote] Yes, it should be.
-
[quote name='cheddatom' timestamp='1422968539' post='2678924'] ahh, OK, sounds a little more complicated that I thought it'd be. I'd need to see the inside of the freeze to figure it out. I once wired two pedals together so that pressing one footswitch would do both of them, which is really simple. If the Freeze has the option to be momentary or latching, then I guess it's a fancy complicated switch which might not be easy to wire like this [/quote] I think my main problem here is the switch would have to have a short delay so that after the freeze has taken its snapshot the input mutes. Then you'd need to somehow un-mute again before the next snapshot is taken - i.e. before I'd pressed the Freeze's switch for the capture. Its a proper chin scratcher!
-
There are some good gut shots here (thanks Elephantgrey), but I can take some new ones if you needed something specific: http://www.mattgallagher.me/2011/07/replacing-the-footswitch-in-an-ehx-freeze-pedal/

[quote name='cheddatom' timestamp='1422962977' post='2678828'] sorry, yes, you're right. Replace the footswitch in an ABY pedal with a momentary switch. Connect this switch to a new jack socket (as well as retaining the ABY connection) on the ABY pedal. Drill a hole in the side of your Freeze, put a jack socket in connected to the footswitch. Plug a patch cable between the two new jack sockets. Sorted! That sounds like a right PITA the Freeze is a momentary footswitch right? And I think the zoom has a footswitch input? I'd wire half a jack cable to the footswitch in your freeze, just tape it on, then plug the jack end into the zoom's socket, and see if you can make the freeze footswitch control the zoom. [/quote] I think I'd need a diagram to fully understand what you are suggesting at the top - sounds like it could work though. I'm happy to undertake a PITA if the result is favourable. The switch on the Freeze is either momentary or latching depending on how you have the switch set. The Zoom however does not have an expression pedal input.
-
I just noticed my signal chain diagram is wrong, so I've corrected it. Also, please note my question is purely concerned with being able to Freeze an effected note and play clean bass over it. The fundamental switching of the two signal paths I have sorted, I think?
-
[quote name='cheddatom' timestamp='1422958200' post='2678736'] If you had an ABY switch, you could have it set to Y, then play the note, then switch back to just A. Have the output of both chains blended back together using your LS-2. So, you don't use the input or sends from the LS-2, you just use it as a mixer. [/quote] I would still need to use both feet to operate the switch and the Freeze, wouldn't I? [quote name='dannybuoy' timestamp='1422961790' post='2678796'] I would put the freeze before the organ sim. Assuming the organ has some kind of rotary speaker sim or other modulation, it won't sound quite right when 'frozen', but if a frozen note is put into it, it can add its goodness on top. Also consider getting an EHX B9 or C9 for organ sounds, there is nothing better! [/quote] I tried the Freeze before, but I like to Freeze one sound and be able to switch to another patch to play over the top. Believe me, if I can sort out this switching problem I'll be buying a C9 immediately. Having browsed the Youtube a bit this morning I noticed that the EHX Superego has an Auto mode, which could solve my problem? leaving me to just switch channel 2 in and out.

[quote name='bagsieblue' timestamp='1422952967' post='2678671'] I'm pretty sure I've got an extra one I could supply to you. [/quote] That'd be great! I've been using a standard 5mm Allen key, but I can't get enough torque with it. Ill pm you, cheers

I'm sure I'm not the first to ask, but where can I procure one?

[quote name='TG Flatline' timestamp='1422905923' post='2678228'] You've piqued my interest with this! I'm half daring myself to have a pop at some point, in either 1590C or 1590XX. I imagine the cost of the POG will be the main barrier to this being reasonably priced though... [/quote] Cool, might be worth waiting for this to keep the cost, price and size down: http://www.talkbass.com/threads/new-pog-nano.1130297/
