  1. Yeah I was on the fence with regards to the Mini & the Nano, I went for the Mini just because I wanted a bit more space. I'd prefer some space between pedals, than some extra space onstage. Having said that, I think the Nano, weirdly enough, has a slightly nicer space underneath for power?! Si
  2. If you want to try another DAW, check out Reaper.....free to use Si
  3. Because it was a side-man soul gig......not a noise gig?! Si
  4. Owning both seems to be the best idea Si
  5. Good? Si
  6. [quote name='tayste_2000' timestamp='1391088231' post='2353083'] All those great subs and then the thumpinator to remove them *shakes head* [/quote] I know what you mean, but you shoulda heard the room when I first used the OC-2/FX-10/Thumpinator setup......rumbling, but controlled. I'd take the Thumpinator out for a noisier gig, but this needed to be a bit more refined ........I had to stop myself swapping the FX-10 for the Meatbox Si
  7. See I only bought a big-box recently because I had one around 8 years ago and stupidly sold it......so technically I had one before it was cool to have one I've not tried an XO, but you're probably right, any tonal issues that might be obvious in a studio are rarely noticeable mid-gig (unless it's really awful). Having said that, I have heard of the construction quality of newer EHX units being called into question compared to older units. Again, no experience of this, but something to bear in mind I guess. Si
  8. Just a quick PT Mini for a soul/RnB EP launch I played this week, sounded great with Precision! [IMG]http://i59.tinypic.com/2086xpz.jpg[/IMG] Si
  9. It's actually my worst nightmare lol, I'd rather have more knobs and no trim-pots Si
  10. Probably the strongest line-up of pedals in the series so far! . Includes two of my fave pedal building guys! Si

    Just put together a cheeky Mammoth clone for myself.....only tested at home so far, but sounds pretty monstrous ....no pun intended: [IMG]http://i59.tinypic.com/16hpzlt.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i57.tinypic.com/29glemf.jpg[/IMG] I do like the Dremel for some pseudo-holographic design :-D Si

    Horrah. It's a bit of a fiddly kit, the R3 Resistor workaround plus the semi-board mounted pots. But all in all it's great, i've done 5 of them now. Cheers Si

    Lead solder ftw Si
  14. I've never had an issue with analogue octave pedals tracking either, just saying. Perhaps in real harsh, high-scrutiny, bedroom testing, but never onstage . Most glitchy tracking is down to buzzing frets anyway, get a well setup round signal into one, it'll play well. When I did the last basschat FX talk, I had my OC-2 tracking low As and Gs Si
  15. For Octave down I love my OC-2, it's well documented! Or similar tones, but without the -2 octave (which not many people use), check out the DOD Octoplus. If you want up and down, POG is a decent bet, the Earthquaker Devices Organizer is cool, with some cool quirks. If you can find one, the Pearl Octaver is well loved. So many to choose from, have fun going through them and trying all, then move on what you don't like. It's the ongoing quest Si

    [quote name='NoirBass' timestamp='1390845025' post='2350267'] Nice artwork, where did you get the BB Bass Pre PCB from? [/quote] Thanks It's a pedalparts.co.uk Big Beefy Preamp Si
  17. Potentially means the tactile switch is on the way out perhaps. Fairly standard repair for anyone worth their salt. Si

    Bass BB Pre clone #5 for Alex Greaves of Forever Cult: [IMG]http://i43.tinypic.com/15n7rys.jpg[/IMG] Tried a new stencil technique, pretty happy with it [IMG]http://i41.tinypic.com/f6zpg.jpg[/IMG] Si

    VFE pedals sale

    Unfortunately there's nothing that's tickling my fancy on there, however is an amazing venture and good luck to AJ & VFE Si
  20. Really am considering one of the new Coronados.....keep holding off for an original one though :-P Si
  21. [quote name='topheteatwo' timestamp='1390592260' post='2347439'] Si, I've always meant to ask you. how does that Organizer sound? I love how it sounds but I'd love to know from you and how it sounds with reverb and some dirt? [/quote] Well at the risk of hi-jacking the thread, here is purely a clean demo of the Organizer I did: http://soundcloud.com/simonpoulton/earthquaker-devices-organizer/s-oBFT2 I love it with reverb, so when I get a chance I'll do a demo with reverb and dirt Si
  22. Joes is great, so you should have it asap! My Rat Tail is just the feedback switch away from a Rat King (in that I have the second gain mod), and it is killer! If you're interested, I did some stacking of some Fuzzrocious pedals here (where decent headphones): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WSL9jALcHNk Unfortunately I recorded it about a month before my Dark Driving arrived, I'm on 5 Fuzzrocious pedals now :-P Si
  23. [quote name='iamtheelvy' timestamp='1390391239' post='2344775'] Yeah, I've got a Voodoo Labs 4x4 which has a fairly hefty output, but think it might still be pushing it... Quite interested in the Organizer... [/quote] Looks like the most you can get from a 9v out on that supply is 400ma, not enough . Anything past half of what you need will start to have gentle but adverse effects on the sound, so I'd even be wary of running it from a 600 or 700ma supply. Think of it as headroom Si
  24. M5 is a 9v 500ma pedal. Pretty hefty for most power supplies. You'd also want isolated power for it. Personally I love the Organizer, love pairing it with my Mr Black Eterna Si
  25. I'll be there for sure And it's a couple of weeks before I pop over to MusicMesse, perfec' Si
