cd_david Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 I've added foam around my pedals to stop lateral movement, doesn't matter how much Velcro I seemed to use there was always one a drift when i open it, but not anymore [IMG]http://i519.photobucket.com/albums/u359/cd_david/Basses%20To%20View/529194_10150633377622757_2022327645_n.jpg[/IMG] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not come across one of those from SFX before. [/quote] Forgive me if I cut 'n' paste something I wrote elsewhere For me it's a great 'warm-up' pedal. The way I use it, it's at unity gain (9 o'clock so plenty more boost to be had), scoop engaged, and tone between about 7-10 o'clock . The tone works (to my ears) like a passive tone control between 7 and 12, and from 12 to 5 it adds treble progressively. I think (and Max might correct me here) that it's similar in effect to the tone control in a Big Muff. The scoop is (again I think) around 800-1000 Hz. Set like I have it, it's a very appropriate warm-up before a solid-state amp (Markbass CMD112P). It's possible there's a bit of FET (valve-like) colouration in there, not really sure, all I can say is it works great for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] I get a cool effect when I run the pulsar into the flanger, the two skip in and out of phase and make it sound way more intersting than it really is. Im going to try it out on the intro to Black Hole Sun tomorrow, in the living room it sounds great so hopefully will sound just as good with the band.

paul_5 Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 I had a pulsar years ago, absolutely loved it. Now that I'm getting into guitar playing again I can sort of justify another trem pedal. I'd need a lot of convincing not to buy another one of those. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I convinced myself that digital octaving was [i]bad[/i] and that I should be more of a [s]snob[/s] purist and get me a decent analog octaver, so I bought an Aguilar Octamizer off this forum... and for some reason I just didn't get on with it at all! I don't know why but I just really preferred the OC-3 in comparison, and if it ain't broke... The purple box is a Nose double expression control for the Line 6 M9/13. It's great if you only want to make small adjustments and don't need a proper expression pedal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
