I don't think it'll fit in the car dude. MIM are swinging by mine on the way, with the 3 of us plus basses etc. It's unlikely. If there is space then yes, I'll bring it along.
-
Looking forward to it. MIM have added it their events list, I spoke with Jarman today and they can't wait. I can't wait to try his IR MIDI Bass!

Shep on Bass - Interviews about effects!
pantherairsoft replied to pantherairsoft's topic in Effects
It's been a while folks! PLEASE BE AWARE - MY WEBSITE IS NOW CLOSED. THE INTERVIEWS CAN NOW BE FOUND HERE -> [url="http://simonpoulton.tumblr.com/sheponbass"]http://simonpoulton.....com/sheponbass[/url] I caught up with Chris & martin of Coopersonic, one of the UK's best kept secrets... Coopersonic create a range of amazing sounding, hand built pedals, inspired by the technical knowledge of Martin Cooper and the constant touring demands of Six By Seven main man Chris Olley. Together they make some of the finest dirt boxes on the planet, straight out of my hometown. -
[quote name='Truckstop' timestamp='1374411527' post='2148419'] I can't believe this hasn't gone yet. This is less than I paid for both of mine and it comes with a cover! These sound great, are perfect for pubs and small venues and extremely versatile. Got a post-EQ DI out and a speaker out for an external 8ohm cab. Yeah, they're chunky, but it's still a one hand lift and ridiculously compact. Come on people! Alex [/quote] Do you use one as the extension cab for the other? I have one as my 'small rig' and am very tempted by a 2nd...

I've tried it. Wasn't impressed. Seemed to track badly, sounded quite artificial (big tonal shift) and felt like I was going to break it. I tired the Bomber that they make too and was even less impressed. I've not gigged them or anything, just spent an hour playing, but they are certainly not for me.

Post your pedal board - Basschat style!!
pantherairsoft replied to dudewheresmybass's topic in Effects
[quote name='Wooks79' timestamp='1374925771' post='2154837'] Thanks man, so do I loads of fun to be had on it. I'd love to see this tidied up by Shep on one of his Really Awesome Pedal boards! [/quote] Maaaaaan... I'd love to be let loose on that!! Get on the launch offer in the affiliates forum! Awesome board though dude. Big PitchFactor fan. -
Cool. All good. If it doesn't work out for you lemme know and I'll take it of you at the price you paid. I was considering one for a compact setup...
-
Have it delivered to your work address. I've never once paid customs on anything that gets delivered to a business address. Maybe a coincidence... but one that I'm happy with!
-
The standard Xero is pretty much the cheapest option mate, even with the import taxes. It's still going to be under half the price of a Moog or a custom unit.
-
I'll bring my Canon 500d and film some stuff. Tom, if your other half has a spare tripod could she bring it? Saves me bringing one along (as I'll forget!).

Sweet

Cool. That was pre-IR bass era too. This is what the new bass can do: http://bitnormalrecords.bandcamp.com/album/the-five-thunders I'll speak to Jarman, if you fancy them doing a short set then consider it done.

I got a message from Matty & Jarman today from Men Imitiating Machines in Australia (amazing live 2-piece electronic act). They are coming to the UK in a few weeks on tour (I helped and signed the visa applications etc). It said, "We've been looking around what's on in the UK while we have a few days downtime and saw the Basschat meet up. Lets go!" So you may see me and the MIM boys. Jarman plus an Industrial Radio Midi bass, which there are literally only a handful of in the world. If its of interest to people, I'm sure they'd play a 20min set for everyone if there is a PA handy. Providing that all works out I'll bring my Roscoe LG as well

Since I got rid of my Big Muff, I keep clipping my Swollen Pickle.
pantherairsoft replied to olliedf89's topic in Effects
If you wanted something Muff-esque, look to the Tarkin - http://basschat.co.uk/topic/212627-tarkin-fuzz-demo-look-and-listen/page__pid__2146951#entry2146951 Incidentally, I found the same things with the Swollen Pickle! -
Correct. The pitchflex setting is a fully programmable 'whammy'.
-
Great show last night. Closed event for a friends video shoot. We warmed the crowd Was with my new 2-piece, all improvised electronica act. Seriously... no rehearsals, no writing songs and no drum kit. This is the way forward!!! [IMG]http://i61.photobucket.com/albums/h44/pantherairsoft/KADE/KADElive2_zps0df1fd81.jpg[/IMG]

I'm not a HUGE midi user, and don own that particular unit, but if you are usin the midi through then I would think that you would be sending the same signal and message to both unit. I guess you 'could' (in theory). Assign some switches/pedal to send a CC that one pedal uses and the other ignores, and then the same for another set, but the chances of the 2 effects not sharing commands is unlikely.

Post your pedal board - Basschat style!!

KADE - A new live improvised electronica project
pantherairsoft replied to pantherairsoft's topic in Share Your Music
This EP has officially become the most downloaded bit of work I've ever been involved in, even though its only been out a few weeks. The response has been amazing. I don't know how many of those downloads came via Basschat, but THANK YOU to everyone that has picked up a copy (for free or otherwise). -
Patient Zero - A new, and somewhat ambitious project.
pantherairsoft replied to pantherairsoft's topic in Share Your Music
[quote name='Skol303' timestamp='1372114889' post='2121947'] Sorry Shep, I've had my head up my arse working on this month's [url="https://soundcloud.com/skollob/world-pass-by"]composition challenge track[/url] and am only just catching up with new music on here! Just tried the link you gave to the Scarecrow Tactics EP and it's not working - I'm getting a [i]"Server not found"[/i] message. Sort it out you big tease as I'm dying to hear it!! [/quote] My mistake! Link fixed. Can you change the link in your quotes bit above (or remove it) so it works too? Sorry about that dude! -
[quote name='tedmanzie' timestamp='1372073680' post='2121175'] but the OP's not intending tracking lower than a 5th fret A on the E string, he's playing an 8th fret C, so the octaver will play the required octave below no problem? i thought this might work pretty well for the problem seeing as its only one song. [/quote] It will, but may sound somewhat 'weak' or boomy compared to playing it on a B string. It will 'work' but may not be pretty. If he was wanting to retain the dry signal as well and add the lower octave underneath I think you'd get away with in, but having a wet only signal I think you'll find a distinctive lack of output compared to playing the octave higher. This is because the octave does not reproduce many of the upper harmonics that the string does and so while there is bass, there is very little definition to the sound. By all means give it a whirl, but I expect you'd be a little disappointed. I would strongly suggest going for a digital/polyphonic Octaver for playing much on the E string for for the improved tracking (and in most cases definition to the note). Graham I can lend you an Octaver for the cost of postage if you want to try it out? I have one or two (or 8).

Thanks dude! Really really appreciate it. -
In about 10 years, when you have finished the 30 pages of that thread, you can also glance at this - http://www.sheponbass.co.uk/blog/signal-chain-bassics-part-iv-filters.html - An article I wrote about filters and how they work. It covers some details and examples of envelope and Low Pass Filters, which will form the core of synth tones and Dubstep wobble.
