    [quote name='Thor' timestamp='1335010926' post='1624688'] Nice one Shep! Just had a read through - really useful - I wasn't aware of loop inverters, sounds cool! [/quote] Thanks dude! They are pretty rare. Generally the WOBO one, then a load of clones... But very useful!

    A new blog post up today... This time it's bypass loops, A/B boxes, kill switches, blending and all manner of switching systems... [url="http://www.sheponbass.co.uk/blog/2012/4/21/signal-chain-bassics-part-vii-switching.html"]Shep on Bass - Signal Chain BASSics, Part VII: Switching.[/url] Hope someone finds the info useful and not just a load babbling rubbish!

    Al, do you have a website etc showing off your stuff? Or just this thread...

    [quote name='1976fenderhead' timestamp='1334877710' post='1622986'] I'm going off my own topic here, but what about tracking, did you find one better than the other on that? [/quote] Not in my experience. Analogue octaves all seem to do the same thing... A passive output (or active with the volume rolled back) seems to perform better... Usually rules apply (ply higher up the neck/single notes only etc).

    THIS IS NOW SOLD! This is a rather rare bit of fancy audio gear. It was designed for DJ's to take an incoming audio signal and convert it into midi clock to allow them to sync midi gear to records they are playing. It can accept 2 audio signals and figure out the BPM's of each, and you can pop between the 2 tempos as you see fit. I actually used this without any form of input and just dialled in the tempo (goes from about 90 to 180ish BPM) to control my midi gear at the tempo I wanted. Has a tap tempo button as well. Basically this was the best solution I had before me and my drummer got sync'd up to a metronome/drum machine with midi. This is the limited edition chrome version (which was a crazy £50 more expensive at RRP), though other than being shiny that doesn't change anything! When these were released in 97' they were £250 (£300 for the chrome one!?) and as such there is one of these on eBay at the mo asking £100 - given its old now I think that is a little over the top.[s] I'd like close to what I paid for it about a year ago, so £55 posted in the UK. Pick it up from Nottingham and I'll call it £50.[/s] SOLD It's in pretty good condition given its 12 or so years old but has a few light marks. Has the original power supply and a print out of the manual (which it came with).No box. Links to info online about it... Review from Sound on Sound magazine - [url="http://www.soundonsound.com/sos/feb98/articles/redbeat.html"]http://www.soundonso...es/redbeat.html[/url] Manual from the manufacturer - [url="http://www.redsound.com/images/products/manuals/Archive/Voyager%201%20manual.pdf"]http://www.redsound....01%20manual.pdf[/url] Would consider trade with a Diago Showman pedalboard, or other board of that size.

    I tried the flat wounds thing with both active and passive and found it to make no difference at all with regards to octave tracking. To be fair it's the tracking that has changed with the passive anyway, it's the tonal change - a hotter input seems to choke the output a little. Id still happily use an active. The difference isn't life changing, but noticable enough to be worth having the option. Plus I can't stand the sound or feel of flats - as such flats are considered an all round fail in my book lol

    Not too sure in the clipping options... The spec was - make it as massively high gain as possible but that doesn't squeal and whine when I don't play... PN-2 is awesomeness!!

    [quote name='GazWills' timestamp='1334784712' post='1621380'] Just saw this thread and read the interview with Ry - good work sir, i'm looking forward to the next pedal builder features. If anybody is remotely curious about Ry's pedals after reading this, i REALLY recommended checking them out. My grey stache is just awesome, definitely my fave pedal [/quote] Thanks bud! There are another 3 builder' interviews in the pipeline at the mo and it's something I intend to focus more one after these are done and published. Ry's stuff is cool. I also have a Grey Stache on the way (With clipping options and an 'always-on' gate to eliminate feedback)...

    Useful for pedalboards and not something I've seen before - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Boss-Diago-Gigrig-Pedaltrain-pedalboard-Pedal-Saver-/110860591294?pt=UK_Guitar_Accessories&hash=item19cfce60be#ht_1386wt_1183 Replaces the bottom of a boss pedal with a flat surface. Come in packs of 3...

    I used to own the MXR and I really liked it... It was quite 'rocky' and aggressive though which didn't work for me in the music I was playing. It's certainly a pedal I'd recommend though. The Aguilar is smoother and synthier - the closed to the OC2 I have used. It's filter is unique, allowing you to use it for sub-like tones rather than a full range sound as well. I like it as it performs a specific task for me - sub under my main sound. Both are great but voiced VERY differently. As the MXR has access to much more mid growl though it does sound pretty badass with a good overdrive or fuzz after it!

    [quote name='Sibob' timestamp='1334779821' post='1621276'] I've been telling you that for ages Active basses are balls, un-neccesary EQ, no dynamics, choke effects.... passive FTW Si [/quote] I won't go that far... and where clean bass is concerned Passives sound very lacking to me - as the one I am currently playing does - but through my Octaves yay. My Moog Freqbox prefers it too... none of the other effects react differently, just the analogue octavers and the Freqbox.

    OC-2 or Aguilar Octamizer into a Mastotron is my recipe of choice. Yum.

    [quote name='Sibob' timestamp='1334778597' post='1621249'] What we've learned here is 'Wanna use pedals.....get a passive bass' Si [/quote] I have just changed the spec of my new Roscoe to include an active/passive switch. I'm currently borrowing a bag of bolts OLP Stingray copy - my octave pedals never sounded so big!!
