soooo, Xmas approaches - time to break out the festive pedalboard lights :)



I've tried a few new drive pedals recently, old and new (storm distortion 10, oxfuzz bass), but I just keep coming back to the BB and the TFR!

Life isn't worth it without a BB preamp.
Sibob is making me up a clone now so I'll have three soon.

Heres my current setup. It goes like this:

Bass > OC3 > Zoom b9.1ut > FX send > Synth wah > mega distortion > zoom 506> FX Return > AMP


I have got the FX loop blended with the clean sound from the Zoom, to keep a bassy signal throughout. I set the multi FX as one patch and use the 5 buttons as stomps. 1. envelope filter 2 FX loop on and off 3. pitch bender (+12 and +24 using the Z - pedal) 4: tremelo 5 . tap delay (delay turned off and on by the button above but is also set to blend in with the zpedal). Always on effects are light compression, a SVT amp sim, the EQ, and noise reduction. In my current band I have a couple of other special effect patches but I play 95% of the stuff on this one patch.

The zoom 506 I literally use as a stand in Fuzz! Its weird, cos iv tried out alot of fuzzes over the past year and I genuinely prefer the sound of this! The rest of the time its bypassed. It'll definately be leaving the board once I get a Fuzz im happier with.

I fancy getting a phaser for the end of the chain too, thats next on the list!

3?!? that's some dedication!

It's a great pedal, I love the EQ section on it, as could never get quite enough low end out of my bassdrive (which otherwise sounds pretty similar)..

A little board I've out together for a few gigs with Polar Caps

Fairly simple and self explanatory:
TU-2 -> Boss CS-2 -> Boss OC-2 -> Fuzzrocious BDPG -> SFX Thumpinator

12v but they run just fine at 9v, and plug straight into the standard pedal power supply on my diago :)

Ha ha! Ah sorry guys no wacky 2 tuner magic..

I've bought the polytune this week and want to A/B my clean tone with the tu2 and against the polytune.
Hopefully i'll lose the tu2 for the cute polytuner, providing I don't miss having the boss buffer in the signal..

Same swapped my bass drive for the Xotic on a whim, so glad. I only got the second so I could have both low and high gain.

OK - at last, the umpteenth iteration of my pedal board:
Carl Martin Compressor > EBS Microbass II
Peterson Strobostomp Tuner (through EMB2 tuner out)
EMB2 effects loop: EBS Octave > MXR Bass Overdrive Deluxe > MXR Bass Chorus Deluxe > Aguilar Octamiser > MXR Stereo Chorus

The MXR Stereo Chorus is always on - very light setting to add shimmer. I have the MXR BCD as a legit chorus.
The EBS Octave does the double track, one octave down so well - 2 distinct notes. The Aguilar Octamiser is so damn good at that sub bass, almost dub thing - it is thunderous :)

Now I just need a Pedaltrain 2 and I'm all set :)

You must be good at packing the car boot for going on holiday - excellent use of a relatively small space!

For the first time ever, I have more than one pedal, so I thought I'd make a mini board:

do you use the mastotron and xero at the same time? as they look very close?

Yes, they are deliberately close together as I need to activate both with one stomp.
The fuzz into the EP-controlled LPF gives some really lovely synthy sweeps and wobbles.

I also use the LPF solo, but it's pretty easy to turn on by itself, I just need to make sure I have narrow shoes on :-D

My wife has taught me well :) But thanks man... I still want a bigger board. Not a fan of having to be so careful where I stomp!
