Pinball Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 (edited) Hi, We're doing originals and I want to play around an acoustic 6 string using 12 string electric and a baritone guitar. I will need to slip down another octave occasionally for a fuller bass sound so I am thinking of EHX Pog's but thought the T-rex Quint would do the trick. Anyone out there use one? http://www.t-rex-effects.com/quint-machine I got myself one of these baritones and love the tone.

Guest FretNoMore Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 (edited) The only pedal I've seen people think do a passable soloed octave down is the Bass Whammy. Most other octavers work best with a dry blend since they either change the tone in various ways (synthy, subby, etc) and/or have a latency (delay) in the effected tone. The Quint has a rather soft/subby octave down as well as some latency, I don't like it with bass but maybe it is better with guitar. I recorded a test some time ago, with bass though: http://youtu.be/sbMOWNAJEPI Edited March 9, 2016 by FretNoMore Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pinball Posted March 9, 2016 Author Share Posted March 9, 2016 Thanks, thats the sort of feedback I was hoping for before I spend the money. I'll give it a good listen through my headphones later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure I have room for a whammy I'll need to think on it Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
