Ancient Mariner Posted October 24, 2012 Posted October 24, 2012 This is the present board - guitar rather than bass, but some effects are dual purpose. It will change when the mooer effects arrive (the PB&J will go) and I recable it. Current order J&H>Cool Cat fuzz>PB&J>Tremelo>volume pedal>Carbon Copy>pitchblack. Running like this lets me do synthy volume swells with the pedal (I actually had a keyboard player check the patch he was using because he thought the sound came from him!).

It's a great Filter. You don't lose your original tone at all. It just whacks 2 filters going in opposite directions, and you choose how much of each you want It almost sounds like there is a built in blend to me, as I can always hear my clean tone with it. Not sure if that's what's going on, but whatever it is doing, it works! Quote
BigBeatNut Posted October 25, 2012 Posted October 25, 2012 [quote name='Higgie' timestamp='1351018401' post='1846323'] There is no power supply, as I will only ever use the board in conjunction with my first board seen here, which is powered by a Johnnyshredfreak/Diago Power Supply: [/quote] How is that power supply attached to the nano ? Is it that super velcro-that-isn't-actually-velcro you're using ? Quote
Higgie Posted October 25, 2012 Posted October 25, 2012 I got Dynamo to come round and fix it using his Voodoo. ...Just kidding, it's stuff called Pedalboard Tape, and it's strong as F*ck. I can lift the board and shake it around by the power supply alone! Quote
Gunsfreddy2003 Posted October 25, 2012 Posted October 25, 2012 Really in love with the Filter Twin now, we were in the studio last week and the producer was looking at my MuTron and commenting on how you don't see many of them about. We were doing a track that I wanted a filter on so I opted for the FT and he stopped the session to say that it was the funkiest sound that he had ever heard and the best filter for a bass. I think he thought it was the MuTron so I didn't have the heart to tell him otherwise! I think that my MuTron is coming off the board and I have to seriously consider selling it or not - very big and heavy and I also have a few problems with active basses being too hot for it!

Gunsfreddy2003 Posted October 25, 2012 Posted October 25, 2012 (edited) Thought that I would share a rough mix of the track using the Filter Twin so you can hear what it sounds like! Please excuse the playing!! [attachment=121997:Get Up.mp3] Edited October 26, 2012 by Gunsfreddy2003 Quote
Higgie Posted October 25, 2012 Posted October 25, 2012 I still have my Mutron, because for me it's unique. I do agree though, it's definitely not the most practical filter for a live application. In all the time I've had it (probably 4 years or so) I've never gigged it. I'd keep it if I were you - Unless you're desperate for the cash. The longer you hold on to it, the more it'll be worth!

Higgie Posted October 25, 2012 Posted October 25, 2012 Just listening to the track now...Great stuff dude. Does indeed sound Funktastic!! Quote

Gunsfreddy2003 Posted October 25, 2012 Posted October 25, 2012 Agreed - think I will put it away in a cupboard for a rainy day!!

Gunsfreddy2003 Posted October 25, 2012 Posted October 25, 2012 I honestly can't remember - will have a look when I get home and see and post it for you. Using the '74 jazz with the East pre-amp and it opens the filters beautifully. [quote name='Higgie' timestamp='1351168035' post='1848151'] What settings were you using? [/quote] Quote

pantherairsoft Posted October 27, 2012 Posted October 27, 2012 Hey dudes!! Been offline or a while as we're still on tour. The promoter of our show in Luxembourg shot this so I thought I'd take advantage of the wifi...

RichF Posted October 28, 2012 Posted October 28, 2012 (edited) if only I could find a 5 knob comp with metering in a 1590A casing then I would be sorted. I await Max's micro comp with mucho interest, but anyway I love me my MXR. Edited October 28, 2012 by RichF Quote

Or wiould that be expecting way too much??? Quote
paul_5 Posted October 28, 2012 Posted October 28, 2012 close to completing mine. Played through it this morning and reckon it's [i] nearly[/i] there... photo later on this evening. Quote
BigBeatNut Posted October 28, 2012 Posted October 28, 2012 [quote name='RichF' timestamp='1351422979' post='1850967'] new nano board - sweet! [/quote] I like it Pretty close to my ideal. Main reason I never took the plunge with the MXR comp is that it didn't look like the attack went slow enough. Quote

[/quote] Probably expecting way too much You can see what max was aiming for at the time of doing the prototype here: From the talk on TB, Max has too much work on to make this into a 'production' pedal, so it seems likely that it will only see the light of day if someone requests a copy of the prototype as a 'custom' pedal. Or perhaps more likely if a small group of people (hint, hint) made the same request. I'm just about at the point of mailing Max on this very subject. Edited October 28, 2012 by BigBeatNut Quote
