Post your pedal board - Basschat style!!

[Dudgeman]

Thanks for the comments..much appreciated. I have been in touch with OBBM got a good quote for the right cables I need. Very helpful chap. I will probably hang off for a sec until I have finalised the finished layout/pedals etc..As I said somewhere before I would like an OC-2, also I am running the Hm on the clean channel to give a balls out sound for the end of the likes of Stockholm syndrome, doubling up 2 different types of distortion on different rigs definitely gets closer to the original sound but I might swap for it for a bass big muff or Russian big muff in the future. Once i have it sorted I will no doubt go down the OBBM route.

With regard to the simple plug and play..it's an absolute godsend! I have to rig up our mac/ IEMs and other stuff at rehearsal as well and so anything that saves time is a bonus.

If anyone does want a bespoke board, and you have a design in mind, then feel free to PM me for a price. If I can help out I will.

I have sold a few pedals recently and also bought a few as you do - current set up just been wired up and working fine now!

[1976fenderhead]

Simpler and simpler.

[deej]

I have all those pedals! Throw in a tuner and compressor, and thats basically my 'basics' board.

[bobbass4k]

All my dirt pedals and the OC-2 and GR thrown in for good measure. I'm trying to decide which ones to get rid of. Ath moment I'm thinking Mastotron and CP, the UF-01 just does everything they can and more.

[1976fenderhead]

Wow man, good to know it arrived ok and you're that happy with it

Weird is what it is. It's sort of a compressor with a drive control. The drive is really crisp and clanky. It basically turns any bass into a jazz with new roundwounds on. It perfectly preserves dynamics (hence I assume why they called it the slap bass), it's very weird, I've never come across another pedal like it. I recorded some samples that I think are somewhere on the net, I'll have a looksee for them.

Just got the proper board wired up:

[cheddatom]

I've got to get one of those slap bass pedals. In case anyone else didn't know what it was [url="http://amtelectronicsusa.com/productpageslapbass.html"]here's the link[/url]

Im liking the soundclip on their site! I always assumed it was just some sort of tone shaping thingy, didnt realise it did overdrive too.

How much do they go for?

[pantherairsoft]

My Drum & Bass project moved into our new rehearsal space tonight. Got my gear set up so it's just plug in and play...

Board hasn't changed too much, but the application of expression pedals etc is a little different and it's powered more efficiently now. The space on the board should of been filled with my Myrtle Effects Corvid Fuzz.

That looks SO much fun to play through.

[phil.i.stein]

Ha. The board won't fit in my house

[DanOwens]

The BMS is the unnassuming monster in the corner. What's the term for a group of moogerfoogers? A gaggle? Agog?

[pantherairsoft]

A congregation... A Foogregation

Well,finished my board a few days ago.


Goes like this:

EBS Stanley Clarke Wah-> Chunk Systems AGENT 00FUNK MARK II -> EBS MultiComp-> EBS OctaBass -> T Rex OCTAVIUS -> EBS MultiDrive -> Malekko B:AssMaster -> PiggyFX Bass Boar -> ANALOG BI-CHORUS W/ Depth Options -> EBS TremoLo -> Malekko EKKO 600D -> Aguilar AG500SC+DB112+DB112NT

A "bank loan" of moogerfoogers.

That wins. I'd like the 12 Stage Phaser as well... But will resist

How does the T-rex Octavius work with bass? I'm thinking about buying it, but the cheapest one I can find is €235 @ Rockpalace Den Haag (yes, i'm from holland), and i haven't got so much money to spend at the moment..

[GilGB]

Hey Cloff,I think the Octavius is pretty much the best Polyphonic Octaver.
If you put the Octavius up against the EHX Micro POG i think it really beats it.
It sounds way more natural,the octave up is awesome and doesn't sound ridicilous like with the MPOG.

The great question is if you really want the Octavius sound?
As you can see i got for myself 2 octavers for 2 different porposes,I use the Octavius for this sort of "Organ" sound/ Sitar sound with my fretless and i use the EBS OctaBass for that really fat sound.

What can i say about the Octavius in generally?
Great Tracking,It sounds way better then i thought,i have been thinking for a long time to get myself a MPog or a POG2 and it really wins both of 'em.

About the price,i paid here in Israel(Yep...Yeah i know...) 1490 Shekels here which is something like 310 Euros(CRAZY!!!) but here MPOG and Octavius are the same price.

Hope i helped you man.

[Cloff]

Well, I tested a Micro Pog once with a Big John Hairy Balls behind it and that was one of the nicest "driven 8-string" sound i've ever heard, but then i saw the T-rex Octavius on YouTube and that sound i heard then was way better than the MPOG.

Another question; what kind of patch cables do you use? They look quite reliable.
