tayste_2000 Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 [quote name='timmyo' post='284480' date='Sep 15 2008, 07:46 PM']The (shortlived) Zoom analogue pedals are absolute diamonds. I have the set. the Hyperlead is a genius guitar pedal - not tried it on bass. Very good sweepable mid EQ as well as lo and hi. The Ultra Fuzz is just bloody amazing. Wooly Mammoth my arse. The dual fuzz circuits in the UF are great - you kind of blend between them with one of the knobs from kind of a Big Muff <--> Fuzz Face type sound Power Driver is nice - very flexible EQ section. And the Tri-Metal is instant brewtal metalzzorz <ahem> if you like that sort of thing. Again - not tried it on bass though. Starting to get harder to find (all of them) now too. I almost flogged mine a while back - glad I didn't.[/quote] I've had all of them except the Tri-Metal, the Hyperlead is not good on bass at all. The power drive is one of the best punk tones available from a pedal and sounds amazing on guitar my guitarist still has his. The Ultra Fuzz however is AMAZING Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What kind of settings did you use umph?[/quote] same as everyone else tone at 10 gain at 12 volume full - having head room is great, i use a matamp 2X15 so its alot easier to notice if your loosing low end all though i'm not normally bothered as long as its still pushing enough air Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
escholl Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 finally have a pedalboard! (err...bag....whatever) want to get a delay maybe, but other than that i think i'm pretty much set for now, and for the foreseeable future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few changes since last time.[/quote] Hey there What's the BBE like at the end of the chain? It seems like a nice compressor and i think you're using it in the same way i would like to, to control the overall signal, post FX that is!

When i got my new amp and bass i needed something to tame my bad technique and i think for the money it can't be beaten. I've tried it at the end but i found it too limiting(!). Like it at the beginning to tame my signal going into the effects. I prefer the stone over the nebula i tried. I don't think it can be beaten in its price range.

Higgie Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 I was gonna hold back until I've got everything, but I figured a WIP shot wouldn't hurt: Top right above the Cream Pie is going to be a Loopmaster pedalboard patcher, and where the ruler is, all the way from the Hellbaby to the Serrano will be a Loopmaster 5 loop with tuner mute and master bypass. The Hellbaby is just placeholding for an OC-2 that I have leant to a mate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duarte Posted October 4, 2008 Share Posted October 4, 2008 Of course, you could just give me that mu-tron III (I could trade my Q-tron for it?) Go on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Higgie Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 The Q-Tron was the first filter I ever owned - And after owning a Mutron, lets just say I'm not going back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dread Bass Posted October 15, 2008 Share Posted October 15, 2008 Ok the board has gone through some major changes. First things first i finally got some decent cables and you guys were right the difference is totally mad. I only have enough to do one of my loops but im not too bothered about this as loop 2 has my non tb pedals in it so cheap cables will do for now. Red onion looper see my review in that section. Zoom ultra fuzz OMFG this thing is amazing i will do a review when i get around to it but this pedal is immense. here is the current layout: chain is Cream pie > Loop1 > ultra fuzz > Mule > loop return > loop 2 > aria flanger > delay > tuner > loop return > Opto stomp.

I want one to see what all the fuss is about do you think it is as good as TB crew claim?[/quote] I think its pretty good, does a pretty good cream pie esq tone at lower gain levels but with a bit more top end, I prefer it as a 'heavy overdrive' pedal though as it has a lot of gain and loads of volume on tap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
