Dudgeman Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 Haven't put mine up for a while. But yesterday I managed to re jig the board a bit so I could get an OS2 on there. I'd love a prunes to go on there as well, but run out of funds/space at the moment. Gigs through out August and beyond so hopefully won't be long. Sorry about the feet!

dudewheresmybass Posted August 2, 2012 Author Share Posted August 2, 2012 Dudgeman- are you using the ve20 for vox or something else mate? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dudgeman Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 No its for backing vocals...but Probably going to let our front man use it as he needs it more than me. MInd you now you have asked I might have to see what it sounds like with bass...! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Si [/quote] No. The new plinth I a tad heavier than all the separate risers, but a few less pedals brings it to roughly the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit: It looks like your Xero is missing some knobs.. [/quote] Box on the left is a Human Gear Animato clone. Seems to sound pretty like the real one (I believe). Loops are a) OC2 - Animato b)Oxide - BEF - Xenograph. Just to allow me to get the sounds in my head. The Xenograph has missing knobs? As far as i know everythings on it! (it's just the std one - not deluxe). Feels weird not having a board which weighs more than me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Shame you are so far away...would love to hear the clone against my real animato think it would be really interesting, oh and £20 sounds pretty good!...It is absolutely fundamental to Mr W's sound .The guy on youtube is called Fran..he loves everything CW/Muse he is prominent on the talkbass forum. Gets a lot of sounds right and wrong IMO. He's about the best out there with Chris' tones though. He puts too much emphasis on the DI.. though most of what he says is good. He gets a fair bit of stick though which is why I have never done any Muse style tones on youtube!! Even though on some stuff I know he is right people still question him...lol "opinions.....apparently they are like "ahem"..every ones got one!"

Dudgeman Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 (edited) Seen this before. With the knobs dialled you have nowhere to go, but knowing how rare the originals are the copy must be good value for money. However the animato with a clean blend and an active bass sounds absolutely superb live....Especially through 2 Marshall 7400s!

LiamPodmore Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 Seriously contemplating getting rid of my board, and just creating a mini one with a Line 6 G50, Boss TU-2/3 and a Tech 21 VT Deluxe. I don't really need much more than that, and if i do, i can create a second little board with what i need (Most likely an envelope filter, octaver and delay). Yey or ney?

tayste_2000 Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 Not a terrible idea, grab 2 PT Mini's or Nanos (I recommend the Nano as the fact it clips to your gig bag makes it all that much easier to grab and go) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
