Hmmmm!! Still haven't managed to read up fully on the XR12 yet, but I have to say, re: our other conversation about IEM monitoring, I REALLY like it.

Dood Posted February 11, 2016 Author Share Posted February 11, 2016 http://dod.com/en-US/products/looking-glass-overdrive What!?? Someone has managed to put a low cut filter in a drive pedal already? AND a treble cut on the output if I understand correctly.

danbowskill Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 (edited) The visuals of that looking glass look awsome , on my radar since NAMM now ( gaaasss) I didn't order the nobels after hearing construction/reliability issues..... I have the new sparkle drive mod inbound now ,it seems to be all I want from a tube screamer :-) Edited February 12, 2016 by danbowskill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dood Posted February 14, 2016 Author Share Posted February 14, 2016 So here's a nice little update to the Bad Monkey request! (and thank you to those who have suggested some really cool alternatives) I love BassChat, it's full of really good people and one such came to my rescue and offered to send me their own Bad Monkey pedal to try out. Such a kind offer - but one thing led to another and we swapped some of our kit to seal a deal. I am very pleased to say that I am now a rather happy bunny as I own a Bad Monkey! It's making some great sounds in my set up already and I haven't even got to tweaking yet! Thank you so much Japhet, you're a star! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danbowskill Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 Was it a standard or mod monkey? I preferred the standard myself .I found the best out of that pedal is the treble full and the bass just slightly off full ,gain at 10 and volume to suit......in a valve amp them settings were fantastic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also feeding the pedal with a bit of boost from a compressor pedal sounds cool as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad you got one in the end - plenty of scope to mod the beast. Just 30 secs on Google got plenty of hits (mostly Talkbass, but hey). I still run mine stock but with a bit of effort I reckon I could do some of the bass mods (and you're not a million miles away either if you' like yours done at the same time ) Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you! Yes, brilliant - So far he natural mid boost is ok as I'm using the mixer output to soften the top end too. I think I'll stay stock for now but I like the 'Banana Mod' I think it is to pull the mid bump down a bit. Possibly worth looking in to. I might have a look at an HPF and gain stage for the input too, but I'll test the theory with some extra hardware before I get the iron out! Yes, you're not too far away! A possible 'mod date' ha ha should I get the urge to try some things out! Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rubbersoul Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 Bad Monkey is a superb od pedal. I originally bought mine for guitar but found that it gave me exactly the sound I wanted on bass. It is my one essential pedal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If max I use the same settings and I agree it sounds great volume = 9 oclock lows = 3 o'clock highs = max gain = max Edited April 7, 2016 by CliveT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
