I’m just using sketch mostly and doodling on my iPad so don’t have access to any real software. Just an SVG or even just a JPG would do!
-
Aye if you don’t mind sharing it that’d be handy. Kind of going for a very stylised version of the tele, all the bezels will be 45 degrees with no rounded edges.
-
It’s surprisingly good, it’s pretty slim, not crazy slim though. Finishing is good, fret work looks good too although I’m expecting a little fret work once it’s all together. For the amount of time it’s gonna save me it’s well worth it though. I’d say it’s every bit as good as any budget to mid level guitar I’ve ever played. I just wish you could find them without inlays, I’d prefer to use luminlay on the side and keep the top dot free ideally.

There's the body wood alongside the wenge neck. The neck was bought online as I don't hav e to make one from scratch. I also got an extra spare bit of wood for making a control plate, will use magnets to attach. So far I’m thinking something like: or with a matte black scratch plate: Kind of going for a Tele/Peavey T-60 inspired look. A Tele-60 perhaps. Going to rip off the T-60 single/humbucker tone blend electronics too.

I got this off Feel Good Wood on eBay. They have a few nice bits in but couldn't turn this down. I really love the orange streaks and figuring with Black Limba, and it's rare to get it all in one piece for a reasonable price from my research!
-
Haha good things aren't worth rushing! I do want to make another bass at some point, which will be the one I spend more time on. It'd probably have a similar body but with an American Walnut top, a laminate set or bolt-on neck, and a lot of finer detail. Maybe even go overkill and use threaded inserts and bolts for everything instead of screws etc. One at a time though!

While I'm happy with the look of my previous kit-built telecaster, I'm not happy with how it plays and sounds. The neck is really chunky, and body wood is really soft and dark sounding. Decided I'd make one from scratch. I'm thinking of another telecaster style shape, but with some more modern design elements thrown in. Just got the body wood delivered. It's a really nice slab of Black Limba with some nice orange streaks. Will document progress. It may not be a fast build 😂

3.0.0 is out, and so far, I'm super impressed. Grabbed the Gojira plugin, and it sounds awesome. The approach to plugins is pretty great. Having the different fx available to drop into the signal path how you want is excellent.

Someone on TB who makes some excellent presets wrote a pretty comprehensive guide to them - https://www.talkbass.com/threads/quad-cortex-neural-dsp.1442415/page-152#post-28593766

Never tried it for bass although a few folks have said the fx are handy for bass too.
-
I have Nolly, and I will probably go for Rabea or Asato for my freebie. I've never been bothered about the DG drives other than the A/O stuff. I'll be honest. The more I play with clean blend drives like the ground & pound, the more I think it's just not for me. I prefer a less processed sound, I think. If they did add the Alpha Omicron to the DG suite, I'd be more open to it, though!
-
I had mine on a single outlet and never had any issues at all.

Try this, it’s less DAW specific IMO and easier to follow. https://youtu.be/7JtL1wQyclw?si=Fc5YIZlH_NJrUcVn

I’m not sure what realnsert is but in logic you just change the output on the dry channel to input 1 or something like that. You shouldn’t need any additional software.
-
I’m not sure. Is there possibly something to do with the A/D converters? I’m sure pretty powerful hardware doesn’t hurt. If I plug into logic with my scarlet 2i2, I think it's something like 12.6ms round trip latency for reference.
-
It has 3 stereo output channels, for the main, sub and dry. One thing worth mentioning is that while you will stack up latency by reamping, it’s still pretty negligible. The GT1000 latency is significantly less that the other units out there, I think it was 4ms or something crazy. I’m sure that would increase if you’re using FX loops though.

What are you listening to right now?
MrDinsdale replied to Sarah5string's topic in General Discussion
Currently listening to this at about 40% speed, trying to learn the bass 😬 while I'm not sure I'll ever play it anywhere near as fast and clean, It'll make for some excellent exercise riffs. -
Long overdue! Curious what’s going in but I imagine it’ll be excellent, they need some new models, certainly for bass.
-
Core has excellent reamping facilities, probably about the same price as a decent interface and reamp box and waaaaay less hassle.

Jad Freer Capo and Stomp XL Send Return question!
MrDinsdale replied to steviedee's topic in Effects
This kind of problem solving is one thing I miss with the Capo 😂 -
Jad Freer Capo and Stomp XL Send Return question!
MrDinsdale replied to steviedee's topic in Effects
This setup is the most flexible in terms of routing. It lets you position FX blocks from the HX before, between or after the 2 FX loops. If you did want stereo or 2 distinct paths for both of the CAPO DIs it’d be fairly straightforward to sacrifice the clean pre DI for it. -
Jad Freer Capo and Stomp XL Send Return question!
MrDinsdale replied to steviedee's topic in Effects
This is how I set it up with the GT1000core. It allows you to use the clean DI on the CAPO as intended. Using the FX loops in this way means that in the Stomp, FX loop 1 is any external drives, FX loop 2 is the preamp stage of the CAPO. The post DI will be your main output from the Stomp. I ran the GT1000core with the left out back to the CAPO post return for the CAPO post DI which left the right out to run to my amp which meant I could handle the signal routing separately and only have cab sims for the DI. Not sure if that’s what you’re after though. Are you wanting to use both CAPO DI for stereo/multiple outputs from the Stomp rather than pre/post? -
I certainly wouldn't describe Cali as transparent, certainly not compared to the MXR m87, etc. It's not as much colour as the Lusithand Alma IMO but there's a definte flavour. I might try comparing the OC2 capture and Octaver with my OC5!
-
I think there is definitely some colour added by Cali. Perhaps a capture in combination with the internal compressors would be close enough to pass. I noticed some Boss OC2 captures, I'm guessing people do similar and add the capture along with a built-in octaver to get some flavour in there.
