    Long shot maybe, but any interest in a trade? - [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=127007"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=127007[/url]

My Cambridge Audio's struggle slightly in places [quote name='xgsjx' post='1169172' date='Mar 20 2011, 08:37 AM']You get some pretty amazing sounds on there. Awesome stuff! Your drummer is right on the money too.[/quote] Thanks bud

    [quote name='xgsjx' post='1154545' date='Mar 8 2011, 09:23 PM']Shep, when's the tracks gonna be ready? Looking forward to hearing it.[/quote] Well… It's done!!! We'll prob re-master it shortly as theres a tiny bit to much gain on a couple of opening notes and in certain areas of 'Face 4 Radio' making my speakers shake a little too much, but I'll swap out these tracks when we do that. Its a minor point. The mix is done and here's the EP. Performed live with a few technical tweeks from Johnny Carter in the studio. Everything you hear that is not a drum beat came from my bass & pedals... [url="http://ourhelicalmind.bandcamp.com"]http://ourhelicalmind.bandcamp.com[/url] Lemme know what you think (and buy it if you're feeling generous!) Anyone interested in what I used for sounds on certain sections etc just ask. On the dispute of Octave pedals which has gone on a fair bit during this thread, each track uses my OC-2 set to Octave-1 at full and Octave-2 and dry off (So just a pure Octave down) on all 3 tracks start to finish.

    You could say I use one or two effects… But its hard to play a 'synth-bass' setup without them… You'll find all this answered plus a million more questions in the effects forum.

    Interesting concept... I can't think when I've ever needed or wanted to roll to a different end of the passive tone dial on a passive bass mid song before though...

    [quote name='DanOwens' post='1165854' date='Mar 17 2011, 03:11 PM']The thing is, once you get into complicated setups (as Shep has done), you start to think about setup time and functionality nearly as much as you think about sounds. The more gear, the more stuff to go wrong and if one thing goes, it really doesn't matter how cool everything would've sounded if it hadn't. Good power, good cables, appropriate casing and contingency plans all come into play once you have multiple signal paths and complicated, modular sound sources. Dan PS. That reminds me. Need to finish that blog post.[/quote] I have spent an awful lot on powering this board... But reducing the cabling has proven a god send in resolving issues and cutting down from 8 mains transformers to 2 has transformed the simplicity of stuff. Yes there's a lot of pedals, but investing in a good board, good power supply and quality cables was a better investment than other new toys. And yes... Get on with that blog post!!!!

    [quote name='phil.i.stein' post='1165368' date='Mar 17 2011, 08:33 AM']did you get your new set-up done on tuesday ? wouldn't mind seeing a pic..[/quote] Pretty much. A few niggles to resolve with the power supply and one pedal to stick down. I'll get some pics up soon. Shep

    [quote name='EskimoBassist' post='1165176' date='Mar 16 2011, 11:47 PM']Ingenious! Bet it takes you forever to set up all your equipment though...[/quote] Not really. The board is all set up within the Diago Tourman. I just plug in 3 expression pedals and one pedal that sits next to the board then plug in the mains. The beat extractor sits on top of my amp and I just run 1 midi cable to the MP-201 and one from that pedal to the Slicer. My drummer sets up the metronome and headphone amp with his kit and I just plug in when I'm done. I can have my entire setup going in about 10 mins from arriving at a venue/studio. My drummer takes about 3 hours [quote name='xgsjx' post='1165206' date='Mar 17 2011, 12:17 AM']That's pretty cool. I'd like to play to a metronome, but can't get the rest of the guys to (they say it takes away the feel, which is rubbish). However, I do believe my singer/guitarist has bought himself an Adrenalinn, so I should be able to take a click to the Murf from that to sync us. Here's hoping! [/quote] The Linn' is amazing, like the slicer meets every effect pedal about. Amazing bit of kit. No worries syncing your stuff to it via midi...

    I'd say give Chris @ Overwater a ring. He's had his hands on basically every bass that ever came out of the factory and he's a great, friendly and genuine guy. He'd happily verify things for you. Shep

    We play to a metronome (even live) as that gives it it's solid 'programmed' feel. The track is always the right speed and same length every time we play it. We feed a single metronome into a 3 output headphone amp and both listen to the click at different volumes to suit our needs. I also take a 3rd signal out of the headphone amp which goes into a RedSound Voyager beat extractor which converts the extact pulse of the metronome into a midi clock to alter the tempo of my Slicer and LFO's. The drummer alters the tempo of the metronome between tracks and the Voyager instantly changes my pedal tempo's accordingly. Simples Shep

    Moog ring mod is AMAZING. someone by this before I add it as a second to my setup. Bump for a great seller... If anyone is worried about getting a power supply I have a couple of spare Moog ones... Buy the pedal off AJ and I'll do you an official power supply for £10. That's the best ring mod around for not a lot of pennies folks. Shep

    [quote name='cheddatom' post='1164049' date='Mar 16 2011, 08:20 AM']I tried it last night and almost blew my ear drum! Having it at the start of the chain, I had to have the effect level right up, but last night as soon as I turned it on my amp was clipping. I turned the effect level down, but then it just wasn't cutting through. I tried less dry level, but that didn't work. I wonder if it [i]needs[/i] a bit of compression after it? What's your set up? Does it sound good through your bass rig?[/quote] Hiya... Yeah it sounds awesome. I keep the dry at 12o'cloco and nudge the effect up to about 1 o'clock. It's plenty loud enough. I used to use compression after it, but now I'm experimenting with no compression following other people's advice. Sounds great in both cases. Worth noting that I only use it on tracks with a few other effects before it, hardly ever use a clean signal into it. I do turn the attack up slightly on it (is it called attack? I can't recall)... Either way I have no problem with it cutting through. One thing that I will say though is that I use it on slow settings (around 80bpm) much slower than many of the presets... Maybe it cuts through better because it's slow and more pronounced? At the mo I use 2 presets for 2 tracks in the set we are rehearsing. (1-1 & 3-6, both at 80bpm) Shep

    Hey folks. Dangerboy used to have a huge feedback thread will loads and loads of positive comments. Unfortunately I managed to delete and/or destroy it in the process of merging it with a duplicate thread for feedback he had. As such, until I have managed to recover the thread from the backup server, please accept this post as the equivalent of about 30 posts of positive feedback!! ---------- Dangerboy bought a Synth off me recently, prompt payment and great communication. All good! Cheers Shep P.S. Sorry about the thread screw up!

    And a Subdecay Noisebox. Packed well, sent quick and arrived safe. All good! Shep

    [quote name='phil.i.stein' post='1162695' date='Mar 15 2011, 08:21 AM']ta, i'll investigate. [/quote] If that fails Si, Drop Max @ SFX an email… he'll sort you out something to your exacting specification.

    Clearing out the bits box and found the following I'm not using... Bespeco Volume/Expression pedal. Boxed. Great condition. Not a great deal more that can be said about it really I'll chuck in a stereo jack-jack lead to connect it up for another couple of quid if you don't already have one. SOLD! Bespeco Non-Latching footswitch. Perfect for use on pedals which accept a tap temp switch like delay etc. Can also be used as a sustain pedal for synths etc. £10 posted. Any questions, fire me a PM. Shep

    [quote name='cheddatom' post='1161456' date='Mar 14 2011, 10:02 AM']ooo, I didn't think about putting the slicer at the end of the chain![/quote] I've tried it absolutely everywhere but the end is 100x better. I think of it as a kind of sequencer that I 'play along to'. My effects chain generates my sound and then the slicer adds a rhythm that I join in with at the end. Putting effects after it seems to make your core signal a little muddy as all the sounds go haywire with the slicers pattern. Try it!

    [quote name='Mr Bassman' post='1159134' date='Mar 12 2011, 11:36 AM']Hey Shep, eubassix has one cheers Keith[/quote] Cheers for the heads up Keith, I've PM'd him. BUMP!! Shep

    Here's a cool little vid of what it can do just on it's own - [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1MWDViXB9o8&feature=youtube_gdata_player"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1MWDViXB9o8...be_gdata_player[/url] Loads more vids on YouTube including how it performs being fed with an Audio Signal. Enjoy! Shep

    I was thinking the same thing a few days ago. It would definitely be useful. Hopefully when Kiwi & Ped's search for a new web developer has finished, the new upgrades that are planned will allow such tweaking. I think this is one idea that everyone would agree is a good one. Shep

    A few folks on this very thread use the M9 now as part of the electronica set up. Dan Owens does. Worth noting that John Davis of nerve uses one for all his modulation effects now as well, so I'd say it's very suitable!
  25. pantherairsoft
    SOLD Recently acquired this on Basschat, Fantastic bit of kit, absolutely huge amount of control over more grooves and patterns than you know what to do with, delay, modulation, waveform and a great filter section. Fantastic for anyone into electronica. Also generates midi-clock and allows you to run it in line through your amp with your bass playing along... Wicked! I have a range of similar equipment already but bought this for a specific role and the only reason I'm selling... I don't like the sound of the Metronome! I know that sounds silly but I'm used to having a click down my ear and can't deal with a beep instead! Lol. This is boxed, with official power supply and the manual. Fantastic condition. Hopefully AJ doesn't mind me using the pics from his sale thread... I paid £100 for this, which given what they are selling for online was a bargain. It's had another couple of weeks use so call it [s]£95[/s] [s]£80[/s] £75 posted in the UK. Also interested in trades/part ex on the following... EBS MultiComp or other decent bass compressor Loop pedal (RC-2 etc) or Any interesting drum/percussion stuff particuarly odd cymbals (Chopper/Trashformer etc).
