Trace Elliot's dual band one is highly regarded among bassists, It sounds very good, and can have quite an effect on the signal, but can still do subtle and transparent, it compresses the low and high frequencies seperatley which is very useful I just happen to be selling one (shameless, I know) in the For Sale: Effects forum if you're interested, I could even record some sound clips if you're interested

Couple of new arrivals, still no actual board, but y'know, can't have everything, crappy camerphone pic: The chains not obvious from that, it goes: Bass/Guitar > XP-100 Whammy (dry out) > Craptastic tuner Whammy (wet out) > Crybaby bass Wah > Feedback Looper (Send) > EHX Microsynth > Cherry Pop Fuzz > Modded Bad Monkey OD > Feedback Looper (Return) > Cool Cat Chorus > Trace Elliot compressor > Boss DD-20 delay > headphones/amp I'm selling the Trace compressor, It's great, but it's shown me that i just don't need a compressor, so I'm flogging it in the effects sale forum if anyone's interested

[quote name='josh3184' post='442989' date='Mar 23 2009, 07:48 PM']those designs are great, gotta love a pedal that references the greatest sport know to mankind![/quote] Snail stomping?

[quote name='burno70' post='438792' date='Mar 18 2009, 11:26 PM']Is that the standard (and pricier) Box of Rock or the Vexter Box of Rock which was the one I tried? I spent more time with this one that the others as I really did want to like this pedal - it's small and looks ace, but it just didn't sound right to my ears.[/quote] The only difference between the vexter and regular models is the paint job, the regular ones have fancy (read: expensive) handpainted enclosures, the vexter ones are plain painted, teh vexter innards should be identical

[quote name='dangerboy' post='438103' date='Mar 18 2009, 10:53 AM']I have one of these for sale in the 'Effects' forum. [url="http://www.martoneaudio.com/PulseSynth.htm"]http://www.martoneaudio.com/PulseSynth.htm[/url] And it's even got extra switches! Lovely synth-ness for half your budget.[/quote] The pulse synth actually looks very interesting, which means you have PM

Some very helpful stuff [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=40389"]here[/url]

Thanks for the advice people, what i'm probably gonna do is splurge on a deep impact, sell if it i dont get along with it, and get a decent octaver and envelope filter to combine with my fuzz/od to make a constituent synth sound

It's in html code, it won't display here for some reason, if you PM me your email address i can mail you the proper file edit, didn't think to make an image: This is the table of settings kiwi gave in that thread hamster linked to I can still mail you the file if you want

That £150 mf-101 looks very interesting, dont they usually go for £250+?, can the mf-101 do more extreme sounds? Subtletly isn't really a requirement for me, i prefer my effects extreme. [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f_bk-9EghNQ"]this[/url] is kind of the sound i'm going for (which will be a deep impact), but i really want a wide range of sounds, i tend to have a paticular sound in my head and try and achieve that with what i have, rather than base a sound on what i have

[quote name='DanOwens' post='435571' date='Mar 15 2009, 09:52 PM']I would go with maybe a POG and a filter. Maybe the Electrix Filter, or something with and expression pedal control. I get some HUGE sounds out of my OC2 > Mammoth > CEB3 > MF101 > DL4 rig. Perfect for noisecore stuff!! I love borrowing my guitarists MicroPOG, tracks great and the +1 octave makes my rig sound even fuller (obviously!!). Dan[/quote] Combining pedals sounds interesting, but i've already got a whammy that serves my octave up needs

[quote name='thisnameistaken' post='435549' date='Mar 15 2009, 09:29 PM']Deep Impacts tend to go for £300-350 when they turn up. The Korg G5 is usually about half that, but I only found one sound I liked on it and it's huge. If you've got £170-ish for a G5 go demo a Bass Micro Synth instead, it's a really good pedal. It won't do pure waveforms but it mimics that classic Moog bass sound surprisingly well, and does a bunch of other tricks too. And its filter is just generally a bit special, nothing sounds like it. For the money I think it's a brilliant box. It depends what sort of sounds you're going for really. Can you link to some tunes for us?[/quote] I'd probably be willing to spring £300 for a deep impact, are they as good as their newer, cheaper rivals? Is the price justified? The microsynth does look pretty good, what else is there available though? I had looked into the G5 and it's size put me off straight away. As for sound, that's a difficult one, I'm a big muse fan (hence the deep impact lust), but the stuff i'm mostly playing nowadays is post/noise/art/experimental/punk/drone/stoner/dance/rock. I'm probably gonna get a bass and drums duo going after exams, think death from above, lightning bolt, mad capsule markets that kind of stuff. Versatility is mainly what i'm after, i enjoy playing all sorts of stuff, and i like having a very wide range of sounds, also with just bass and drums, a big full sound would be good too, i play a lot of lead/high register stuff too, so bad low end tracking wouldnt really put me off if the rest is good.

I'm in the market for a synth pedal, but it's an area i've got little experience in, I had an Ibanez sb7, which i liked, but i defintley want something with more versatility. I've got quite a budget (£250 max) so i'm looking at the high end (not quite as high as an octavius squeezer though). I'm sorely tempted by a deep impact, I've wanted one since i first heard of them, but are they worth the exoribtant money? Is there anything newer that's better and cheaper? I'd appreciate any advice

Hmm, this is a little eerie, just today i did some maths and realised i'm gonna have about a grand spare from my student loan next term, so i've resolved to get one of these (I've wanted one ever since i first heard of them), and at the same time a 2 year old thread gets ressurected.... anywho, may aswell take advantage, are these things actually worth the exorbitant prices? (I've earmarked £300 max) I've heard about power supply problems, bad tracking, software corrupting, some people say it's too subtle etc., would i just be better off ignoring the hype and legend status, getting a EHX Bass Microsynth (I do actually want a synth pedal), and saving £150?
