Are you using the Eventide Smart Harmony Models? I'm sure I did M9 Clips of it being Polyphonic

[quote name='waltsdog' post='913793' date='Aug 3 2010, 12:57 PM']Isn't the 105Q bass crybaby pretty much the same pedal as the regular guitar one but with a different capacitor for bass freq range, a white paint job and £50 added on the price?[/quote] Doubtful they sound completely different Which is also the issue with Bass Wah's they are more filter like than guitar wahs, my Freaker can dial between filter sounds and what a bass wah should sound like but the Wilson Vintage Spec 12 Position Wah is where it's at for Bass Wahs

[quote name='cheddatom' post='913677' date='Aug 3 2010, 11:18 AM']tayste just out of interest have you tried a Zvex wah probe?[/quote] Nope was told it was awful

I have a Wilson Freaker Wah, this thing goes so low it does LPF Most guitar wahs do indeed suck on bass, I would look at Wilson for a wah as everything else is a bit meh

[quote name='deej' post='913639' date='Aug 3 2010, 10:57 AM']I think you can do both with the Line6 M9/M13?[/quote] Yeah they can be fairly polyphonic

Eventide

For a man without very many pedals I sure seem to have a lot of pedals Not shown my band board X2 Wireless - Turbo Tuner - Subdecay Super Nova Drive - Catalinbread SFT on a PT Mini

[quote name='umph' post='909477' date='Jul 29 2010, 05:29 PM']no tone bender? no super fuzz? no rat? no scrambler? the list could go on ;o[/quote] Colorsound is a Tone Bender Don't like the Super Fuzz or what I've heard Rat isn't a fuzz Scrambler I've been considering some iteration of it between the Scrambler, the Fender Blender and the Foxx Tone Machine

Well I've changed my mind on the LED and no none are going on a board these will be grab and go with my wah pedal. Going for a dead simple vintage style setup, good bass into good fuzz pushing a good tube amp to be topped off with some bad playing

Since it involves some UK Builders I figured I would share my plans outside of the TB FX Forum So I got the plan finalised in my head today I'm just waiting for builders to come back to me on prices and what they have in stock. I'm going to be having 5 or more custom enclosures in a wedge shape (Prism I) made from pedalenclosures.com these will all be in custom colours representing the fuzz inside them. All fuzz's will have [s]no led, no dc in so battery only[/s], knobs on the top side where the jacks are leaving the top of the pedal with only the footswitch. So far I will be having Silver Vein - Custom cap modded SFX Bass Colorsound Fuzz Green Hammer - Big Muff modded to Swollen Pickle Specs with Defeatable Tone Control (Need to find a builder, but most likely SFX) Black Mist - Shin Ei Companion Fuzz (Ghost FX) Blue Hammer - Bass modded Ge Fuzz Face (Ghost FX) Then if possible Purple Hammer - Rehoused Mojohand Huckleberry V2 Si/Ge Hybrid Fuzz Face Red Hammer - Rehoused Subdecay Tomato Si Fuzz Face This may seem a bit crazy but in reality it's going to work out the same as buying a stock pedal or less and it will have a far more tailored feel for what I want. I may not bother with the Tomato rehouse as its the fuzz that's sitting on my synth board. The Huckleberry I've already had Tone Factor agree to sell me just a board if I don't want to have mine taken apart. I've bought the cases, I've decided on which fuzz is going in each box and what led colour, I'm going to have dc in on some of them, basically where it will fit as some will be 2 knob fuzz's others will be 4 with a switch, tbh I'm happy to run the lot on batteries but I do see the benefits of a decent power supply with them. Ge Fuzz Face will be the first ordered, most likely today. But any comments or recommendations for mods, additional features etc, is the colour scheme wrong?

The return of the soundclipman Chain is Valenti no3 Active Jazz into pedal into POD Bass XT set to tube preamp and then USB into Audacity and converted straight to mp3. I have to admit they do sound a bit different into my amps, as I guess you would expect but the Tomato is a lot less gated. Anyway here you have them.

Just a taste of messings to come [url="http://www.ourinnocencelost.co.uk/fx_soundclips/effect_jam.mp3"]www.ourinnocencelost.co.uk/fx_soundclips/effect_jam.mp3[/url] Enjoy

Sunday night I'll line them all up into my pod and get some clips up

Initial Thoughts I got about 10 minutes with each pedal yesterday with my big rig so hardly in depth but I won't get them to play them again till Monday as I'm out playing gigs all weekend. [b] Tomato Fuzz[/b] - Woooo love it, I've been away from fuzz for a while and I had a Colorsound the other week on loan but man this pedal is great. IT's got that Fuzz Face vibe but with the treble cut I can take out the spluttery highend making it very smooth. Plenty of volume and fuzz on tap, no low end loss, fine with active basses and the turning the buffer off gives a whole different range of tones. Only thing I'm not sold on is the bias but this was using it in huge increments the last 25% of it are really nice for just tweaking the sound but when you really start to take it down its a bit thin for bass but there is still enough volume to make it usable even at the lowest bias settings. [b]Liquid Sunshine[/b] - My guitarist took this off me about 2 seconds after I walked into the room, he loved it, made his Mesa solo 50 sound so much thicker. It's a very unique pedal on bass as most bass pedals work on leaving your low end clean or dirtying up your whole signal, this allows you to do you whole signal and then distort the lows and mids more. It's really fun as I'm not a fan of high end so I can get really crunchy bass sounds while not getting any shrill sounds. Best way to describe it is, you know when you love a distortion pedal and its huge on the low strings but then you sound like a lead guitar on your top strings and it ruins the vibe well this doesn't your low end is big and crunchy and the top end is slightly gritty. Not sure if it's a keeper for 2 reasons, 1 it's very transparent and I want something darker for my boosty gain type tones like the Phat Punk, CPD or even the Chilli Boost and 2 my guitarist loved it so much that I will likely let him buy it off me. [b]Proteus[/b] - I just didn't get enough time with it, so far I prefer the Prometheus but I really just didn't get anything I liked dialed in, it can do a stellar LPF with one of the knobs dimed and one at minimum but I can't remember which but this will be the first getting hammered on Monday. [b]Baby Quasar[/b] - Well the old quasar was my favourite filter of all time, this thing kills it dead, it sounds way better so smooth and chewy, the range on the speed knob is insane I set it where I expected it to be perfect visually and it was sooooo slow, so I turned it up and bit and perfect. I don't know why we don't see more of these. This was the real stand out pedal for me, really wasn't what I was expecting and just didn't want to stop playing it, this is easily better than all the phasers in the Line 6 M series that were the reason I sold my quasar in the first place, they did a passable replacement. Overall very happy, there will be a Tomato vs Huck shootout in a few weeks when the Huck gets here but personally at the moment I think the Tomato will win, I just don't remember being as happy straight away with the Huck it was always a battle to get the right tone, once you did it was great but the Tomato is like turn a knob BAM great tone turn another BAM another great tone but totally different. Anyway, initial findings Baby Quasar is a keeper, Tomato is about to go up against my favourite bass fuzz of all time and it's looking strong. Other 2 I'm not sure about but don't want to comment on the Proteus really as I just didn't have the time with it. Cheers
