Total Watts

  1. Roger Dean prints I take it. Very nice.
  2. A home turf gig last night at the Brit Club for our blues band Purple Haze (a two minute walk for me). Considering a lot of people have gone home for Xmas we still managed a good crowd, even people who were going out on flights early in the morning turned up, so we seem to be getting a bit of a following. Played for two hours, one hour of which was new material, mostly old blues standards, kept the fav Hendrix numbers in of course. On the MM bass I replaced the electronics with just a Delano Xpure (I know I know!) but in my opinion the raw sound of the pickup is an improvement! The fretless jazz got an outing as well. New Charles Guitar trem on the Strat, so lots of wammy use as the guitarist made the best of it, plus new compensated saddles on the Tele. All sounded good and have to say Charles Guitars make some good parts. Did a slowed down version of Hey Joe with an almost country beat (Otis Taylor style) and slide guitar which went down a treat. Last gig of the year and a fun one at that.
  3. Do it! Use the whole thing as an excuse to vlog said 'dramas' on youtube. That could prove more profitable than the gigs.
  4. Warm Audio Mutation Phasor II into an Aguilar Grape Phasor. WA does slow Phasor rates well, the Aguilar does the higher rates well, run both together and it sounds almost like an envelope filter, only imho much better. My latest go to funky setup.
  5. Aguilar Octamizer into a Mr Black Fwonkbeta. Funky synth sounds.
  6. Cog T65 with an Idiotbox Blower Box distortion in the loop. A most viscous synth sound!
  7. I’ve just bought one of these, mostly because it has knobs and doesn’t look like I need a phd in programming to operate. I’m not seeing much on the forum about them but I am seeing a few people sell them! So, a few observations. The amp modelling is good but all the effects I can do better with individual pedals… but then some of my one trick pony pedals cost more than this. However, the one thing I’m struggling with seems to be input gain. Without adjusting anything on the pod I plugged in my MusicMan and on the ‘round’ amp setting it was so distorted. Pressed ‘alt’ to adjust the gain and I had to turn it down to one red led so it didn’t clip. Now has a nice B15 undistorted tone. Does this thing have very low input headroom? My MM is not standard; pickup goes straight to a Delano Sonas xpure, no eq and the output is not hot by any means. Anybody else come across this issue with input sensitivity? I plug this into an xr18 so I can see the input levels, and out of the pod, without clipping the settings, it’s low. Consequently I’m running it thru a xotic super sweet to use as a clean gain boost. How have others found this pedal?
  8. Since installing a Behringer XR18 in my practice / rehearsal room, I use that and the powerplay controller for remote monitor mix into Focal headphones. Flexible solution that covers just practicing through to recording the band.
  9. Steampunk morris dancing…. Surely some pictures are in order!
  10. A pleasure! SCF was the first pedal I ever bought, had one on the board ever since. Sort of pedal you keep and a bargain at that price.
  11. TC Electronic SCF. Looks like Andertons have one on sale for £70. I’ve got the original and reissue, both awesome. Does subtle to extreme, the pitch mod mode is great.
  12. Sorry... Multiply post was outside my control!
  13. Yep, we had the same keyboard issue recently. Our keys player doing rehearsals with a cheap keyboard but all the outputs work, no issues. He turns up at the gig with his posh keys, all outputs busted except the headphones. Theses keys play better he announced. I was unprepared lead wise for this (I seem to be the one with all the leads!), and we had limited setup time on a stage shared with other bands, so in the hurry ended up just sending one side of the stereo to FOH. Consequently weird unpredictable sounds from his keys. If the patch was in mono, great, in stereo it was fading in and out as he playing. Not the greatest especially as it was going through a decent pa at an open air gig.
