Good stuff Mick, when are you planning to start?

[quote name='wal4string' post='1022786' date='Nov 13 2010, 07:03 PM']Possible, or, your Flux Capacitor was low on Gigawatts. Just a thought.[/quote] funny, the mrs always says that

weird, it worked this time, must've been an eddy in the space time continuum. anyway, I gots it now, thanks very much

I can't download the file for some reason

[quote name='thisnameistaken' post='1016865' date='Nov 8 2010, 08:22 PM']I've never built a pedal before and I don't really understand electricity drawings either, but I love Big Muffs (and I cannot lie) and I've always thought it would be nice to have a Muff that can also go gated, and I've always fancied building something. Anyone think this is a really bad idea? Chances of me actually dying I think are fairly slim, I suppose I could annoy myself to death.[/quote] go for it, have a look at www.freestompboxes.org, they have loads of schematics using veroboard instead of pcbs, which makes things a lot easier and quicker. I can recommend trying a woolly mammoth type clone

hiya from yet another manc, try the for sale forums on here, that's where all my wages seem to go

[quote name='thisnameistaken' post='1011369' date='Nov 3 2010, 09:23 PM']Couple of plus points for the M9 though: It's easy to program, the interface is mostly sensible, although they've had to make some compromises over the M13 to pack all the functionality in. And the way you can set a single expression pedal to control almost any (or all) parameters on one, two, or three effects at once - that's a really nice feature that opens up a lot of slick possibilities.[/quote] [quote name='pantherairsoft' post='1011373' date='Nov 3 2010, 09:25 PM']So if your running 3 effects at once you can set the expression pedal to change a parameter within each effect at the same time? If so that is A - Mental, and B - Cool![/quote] +1 this is a fantastic feature, I use an M13 now because I slightly favour the interface and use the send/return to do the parallel processing thing. One nice trick is to have fuzz/OD in one path, and a clean or possibly eq'd signal in the other path, then you can use one (or two) expression pedals to cross fade the depth of dirt with the volume of the clean signal path to vary the dirt while maintaining the same volume.

hey Shep the m9 and m13 are a bit lacking on there own in the drive/fuzz department unless you use some kind of blending for the clean signal. Delays chorus' and flangers are all pretty good tho' and then you've got other stuff like ring mods etc etc

I recognise those power sockets

I'm sure there's a NS WAV megathread on talkbass where string options are discussed

Bought Pete's Line6 Relay G30 wireless. all went smoothly, the unit was in my hands within 48hrs of paying for it, and was in better (ie pretty much as new) condition than I was expecting. Top chap to deal with, i would happily recommend him to anyone. Cheers mate steve

we do a cover of 'I gotta feeling' by Black Eyed Peas if that counts, seems to go down OK used a chorus and IIRC an auto-volume delay on two parallel channels of my M13 for the synth part at the beginning

As soon the finer details are sorted we will be banging out an email to everybody who has been before as a first dibs on hotel accommodation and of course a place at the curry.... Best part about the whole weekend for me is the Sat night as its always a top laugh, and great to catch up with guys and meet new fellow bass plonkers...and come the Sunday you are all like best mates.... Most guys coming here travel a long, long way...some from way down south. Its a good indication of how much of a laugh we get out of it.... Its the most relaxed bass bash I have been to....top event Of course the hangover can sometimes be a little bit of a pain..... Dave P[/quote] great stuff, cheers Dave

[quote name='daz' post='998447' date='Oct 23 2010, 08:35 PM']If you can play ok like that then id stay with it.[/quote] +1 if it works for you, gives you the sound and feel you're happy with, then it's the right technique for you

[quote name='munkonthehill' post='998336' date='Oct 23 2010, 06:37 PM']I dont suppose your a hot little 17 year old female Alex?????[/quote] ever the optimist

I'll be up for a trip up to maffat again if I'm free Alan, can you add me to the list pls?

Nice review, and aren't they fantastic basses? had mine for over six months and I still get the same buzz form playing it now as I did when I first got it

[quote]Or, if you prefer, I could do you one very similar: if not the same. It'll take 2 weeks to build[/quote] I think some of the bass builders on here have been swinging the lead a bit if thats the case
