[quote name='dave_bass5' post='35746' date='Jul 22 2007, 10:56 PM']During Come on Eileen last night my bloody AKG cut out again. Cant figure out whats going on. I did three gigs without any problems after the first time it cut out. The reciever is still getting a signal, the cable ot the amp is fine as i plugged that in to the bass so i guess it could be the lead going from the bass to the transmitter. Trouble is i cant get it to happen when i want it to. Tried wiggling it etc but nothing sounds wrong. I even used it all last week, every night at home in to my PC just to make sure it was ok for the gig. Ill give it one more chance i think. Im getting very nervous about using it now.[/quote] Check that you aren't clipping it as I've done this a few times and if you consistently clip the receiver for a while it cuts out as some sort of protection for the units. Else if you are really unhappy with it I'm still after a second unit

[quote name='Aussiephoenix' post='35945' date='Jul 23 2007, 03:12 PM']Ahhh, I get it, thanks for the explanation guys, it makes sense to have the env before the comp after all. I didnt know that the signal in the fx loop was hotter... strange, most guitarrists defend that their pedal chains sound better in the fx loop than between guitar and amp...[/quote] Any sentance that starts with I'm a guitarist and I think........ can generally be ignored

[quote name='Aussiephoenix' post='35929' date='Jul 23 2007, 02:40 PM']Y not? wouldnt the env filter have a better signal to process that way? what advantage is there in having the compressor after the env? Toasted, looking back at it, you did explain it well... I am curious though... why shouldnt I put pedals in the fx loop? whats the difference between pedals and rack gear that would make rack gear more suited for the fx loop? (say a G-Major or something like that...)[/quote] It's to much signal for most pedal is the main thing it's a much much much hotter signal that striaght out of your bass so it would probably overload most of the pedals and make them sound awful. Having an EV Filter before a compressor means you are feeding it a bigger signal and then the compressor is protecting your amp from the huge peak that may occur while using an EV Filter.

This is a 2 stage phaser based on the old Dod 201 and the MXR Phase 45 but it has many improvements over these old models. It was my favourite phaser for a long time and I found it much better and by better I mean tonally smoother, no volume drop or jump, dead easy to use and no massive huge swooshy sweeps that migth sound cool in your bedroom but get totally lost live. For me it beat out the following Maxon Pt999, Phase 90, Boss PH3, EHX Small Stone, Akai Intelliphase, Red Witch, Pigtronix EP-1. I finally got rid of it when I needed money and had a Subdecay Quasar which just gave me more varity I needed but it's huge in comparison and more expensive that this and does get that old school phaser sound that the Nebula did. It is also true that Tone Factor don't make these any more and they are now rebranded under the Mojo Hand Brand but they won't be available in this colour again. Also Tone Factor will no longer sell these direct to the UK you will have to use a UK Distributer which has pretty much doubled the price and also currently aren't available as of yet. This has been a free party polictical broadcast

[quote name='Aussiephoenix' post='35835' date='Jul 23 2007, 11:05 AM']Hmmm... so, looking at the whole thing, would you set it up like: Bass -> Amp Amp Fx Send -> Multicomp -> MXR M80+ -> WOBO Looper -> CE-2B -> Amp FX Return WOBO Fx Send -> fx25 -> PH7 -> fx94 -> WOBO Fx Return ?[/quote] Unless you're using the M-80 for distortion place it after the wobo so that you can DI all your effects

So every year or so I try to have a noise jam with some friends, generally I rent a room in a church so I have the room ambiance that adds to a recording. I thought you'd like to see all the gear dotted about. It was a shame as due to postal strikes over here in the UK I didn't have the following pedals Tone Factor Fuzzsaw Tone Factor 442 (Bass) Aria FL-5 80's Proco Rat Catalinbread Serrano Picasso Boost Catalinbread Hyperpak Which was a shame, but everything still went well and I had a lot of fun and the recordings worked out alright. Here are some of the better clips from the day. These were recorded using a Shure SM58 in the middle of the room run into Garageband I haven't done any editing or anything to it which is quite apparent. The whole point of the day is to have some fun and make some noise and nothing is discussed or planned before hand so it is rough and obviously here I'm making excuses in case you all think it's crap but to be honest I'm pretty damn proud of it.

[quote name='Basszilla' post='34107' date='Jul 19 2007, 01:48 PM']Here's my board then. It's a bit tight but managed to get everything on there except my tuner, I don't mind that though. Multicomp > Cream pie > LTD Silver > Bluebeard > UF-01 > VBF2 with a 18v Cat in the loop. I haven't had a chance to give it a good kicking yet in a band setting, so I'm looking forward to that. I'll probably end up moving it about a bit at some point. [attachment=1259:DSC00404.JPG][/quote] AWESOME and I don't say that a lot

What was used to make the sound other then bass and a delay pedal

Tone Factor 442 is my personally fav. I'd let you come round and try it but its on loan to someone else but I'll let you know when I get it back and you can try it.

Completely different but I prefer it to the Q-tron. But different sounds completely really

No to all answers keep guessing

Now this is something new I picked up and you have to guess the effect I'm using to produce this sound [url="http://myselfalone.com/tayste2000/Weird_Effect.mp3"]http://myselfalone.com/tayste2000/Weird_Effect.mp3[/url] I will tell you what I've used except for the mystery item. Passive 60's RI MIM Fender Jazz with Flats, tone rolled all the way back and neck pickup with a Digitech PDS2000 set for about 5ish repeats at less than a second just for that bit of ambience then it is straight into my computer hence the odd pops and stuff dotted about but you'll get the gist. So guess the effect
