zawinul Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 apart from the the Ric what effects is he using... sounds like more than just chorus and phaser https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dp9aHtN4K74 cheers Z Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonic_Groove Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 Dunno defiantly some modulation (flange/chorus whatever). Here is a live instrumental mainly solo version, as can be seen a lot of it is probably technique!!!

KevB Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 (edited) I think part of his sound at that time involved a Mutron phaser pedal but not sure exactly which model. After doing some digging it appears to be the Mutron III which has been emulated by another company (Amplitude?) more recently as the Mu-III is long gone.You might find this useful; http://miguelbass.com/tag/mutron/ Edited July 6, 2015 by KevB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonsmith Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 (edited) There's an Eventide harmoniser on the bass on this track. I read this years ago in an article about recording that album. Chris also used the Mutron as mentioned above (seen this confirmed in an interview). Edited, because I think the Mutron plays a big part in the sound!

zawinul Posted July 7, 2015 Author Share Posted July 7, 2015 i think you'll nailed it!! I wonder if a slippter would help as I don;t have a stereo bass... a bit of phaser and and chorus one channel, Envelope filter the other ( can;t afford a mutron!!) something clean and hi-fi sounding would be nice... theres probably a bit of delay and reverb in there as well!! Styrmon or eventide should do that trick!! Cheers people that been very useful!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
