Ah! I've actually got it set to swell already... it just doesn't have the same sort of peak as what I'm trying to achieve, and the cut off doesn't seem as sharp.

The 5th interval made sense... the rest was all swaheelee though! 😂 what do you mean by amp envelope?

Hey all! My band has recently started doing a techno version of Eminem's "Without me" (youtube link to the song we've based it off is below) and there's a very specific bass synth "wub" type sound that I'm struggling to nail... I'm convinced it's hiding in the C4 somewhere, and I'm close - but I think I'm struggling to get the filter right! Any suggestions would be much appreciated! The "wub" begins at around 42 seconds in

I think it depends where he is at the time - my Taylor Shift shipped from Turkey. Wasn't valuable enough to incur fees though.

I've had to remove the rattler from my board as I need the ultrawave (not pictured) for a song or two on occasion. I hugely miss it, and the ultrawave/hx one doesn't have anything that comes close to it... any one have any suggestions on a board between this (nano+) and the nano max where I'd get the rattler back on? (Ideally a small tuner, too)

A very long and very expensive journey with a lot of bass casualties along the way 🥲... Hopefully this is the destination though 🤞 I get it though, given the P is where it all started you'd expect it to have been surpassed - horses for courses 🤷‍♂️

I'm glad you didn't! 😂... I feel like Fender get alot of stick on the youtubes "sire showing fender up" etc, but truthfully this feels a level up from the two Sires I have.

Thought I'd try the stripped back board again... without the slight tube compression from the Sushi Box space heater my c4 levels were a bit all over, and I'm not totally sold on the Taylor Shift. As someone in GAS recovery though, I'm fighting the urge to automatically sell off my big board, 3 Leaf Octabvre, SA Ultrawave and aforementioned Space heater to buy preamps and octavers I don't need.

Another day, another NBD! First, a bit of back story... I'm Paul, and I'm a GASoholic. I've been playing for around 22 years now, and in this time can only think of two times I've truly been happy with a bass... First was an Aerodyne P around '07, which I let go for peanuts as I was convinced I needed a jazz bass in '16, and second was an EBMM Sterling 5 which developed a faulty pickup, but PMT would only refund (both pictured below) Other than this I've had premium, budget, mid range, headless, short scale, fan fret, four string, five strings from Ibanez, Yamaha, Rickenbacker, LTD, Spector, SBMM, Nordstrand, Sire, Squier, Sandberg, Fender, Charvel, Harley Benton... you name it! Every time, I find something I'm not fussed on, and either move on at a loss, or modify past the point of no return - whether it be neck profile, knob placement, active pickups, inherent mid scoop, perceived low end loss or ergonomic issues and so forth... Most recently it's been a Sire Z7 which I was convinced would push me through the mix, but I struggle with the weight and preamp and the cycle resumes... After weighing up my options I decided I'd like to try a P, but that it was time to grow up and a Sunburt P would be the way to go... no luck in the local stores (as usual) but then I spotted Greeneking's P on the FS section... After a couple of messages and an impulsive post xmas cross country drive, I arrived at Peter's house raring to give it a try. It didn't take long to decide it was for me, and off I went 1 bass heavier... And here she is! A fender Player II P... nothing fancy, and couldn't be any more opposite to the basses I've had in the past (P's are so boring, right?) But it totally clicked, and I'm in love! It plays like a dream, the neck isn't as fat as I remember Ps being, and it's light but it still roars and has that P weight to the sound. Ive played this bass EVERY night since I got it, (often into the early hours before remembering I have work tomorrow 😬). It's just so good in every way! I had a Mex Fender P back in 2010 and it was a DOG and put me off both Ps and Fender, but I've gigged this now around 6 times and each time I've been so excited to play it... For now at least, it feels like a forever bass! If you made it this far... thanks for reading!

I can't believe this hasn't been outed yet! Talk about anticipation!

I've been really interested in the bassrig '64! As a master of synthy stuff, have you tried running your C4 into it for FOH? The cab sim colouration is the only thing that scared me off getting one!
