lee650 Posted July 6, 2019 Share Posted July 6, 2019 (edited) Well a bit of a change on mine too! New addition of a cog T70 and VFE mini mu (mutron clone) not sure if I need the Valeton anymore, mind you the cog doesn't do -2 and running them both in parallel is immense Had a slight rearrange!!

Stofferson Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 Ok as it stands today here's what it looks like. Input - Thumpinator, 3 way switcher with tuner output, featuring BB Pre, EHX Soul food, Mooer Tender Octaver, then into a boss Ls-2 with a Green muff and a mid focussed eq on one loop and nothing on the other for a clean blend, into Wah, into sansamp, into the Compressor for limiting into my amp. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sibob Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 (edited) A couple of little changes, swapped out the True Bypass Looper for a TC Spark Mini. The TBL was a nice failsafe, but I've never needed it live (famous last words) and when I have a couple of basses with lower outputs than my Precisions, functionally, the extra signal into my pedals so I don't have to mess with their settings is more helpful. Also changed out the COG Mini 66 for a custom Schu-Tone 'Finn Drive' (named by me), it's a 3BOD clone with diode switching & relay bypass. The COG is excellent, but because of it's placement on the board, and that I only tend to use that pedal for quick drop-ins and out again, I wanted something with a relay/softswitch. To my knowledge, there are no other bass overdrives on the market in a 1590a size with relay switching......Dan at Schu-Tone absolutely stepped up to my challenge!

Al Krow Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 (edited) Bit cheeky my posting two updates in one month...but having found a decent bitcrush effect on the HX Stomp, I've been able to move on the Mooer Lofi and as I've managed to get round to ordering a reverse polarity cable to connect up a Smoothhound wireless to my PSU that's been able to get onto my board in place of the Mooer. One other nice thing to discover is that the 3Leaf GR2 is 'officially' capable of handling 18V, so I've been able to make use of one of the 18V on my MXR IsoBrick reducing the number of outputs that need to be shared. The Stomp is powered with it's own supply and the remaining 12 units from the 10 output Isobrick which is under the board and which still has juice to spare. Ok, now need to get my head around using midi 😂 Gonna be brave and post what the underside looks like too Edited July 13, 2019 by Al Krow 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radiophonic Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 Temporary board following the highly inconvenient demise of my ES-5 loop switcher. Hopefully Roland get their skates on. No MIDI, no parallel routing or clean blend and one song will be unplayable. It is smaller and lighter though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neither I got the Q\Strip in a trade for a bass - I had heard really good things about it and was curious. However, consensus with a couple of BC buddies is that, whilst it's a great pedal, it didn't really bring anything additional to the party over and above what is available on the HX Stomp and Grizzly Bass in terms of tone shaping - although tbf I find always being able to adjust pedal knobs easier and more 'real time' than PC editing. It's therefore already been moved on and the funds (and space) will be applied to the new Boss SY-1 synth pedal, due out in a couple of months, which looks amazing!

dannybuoy Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 Not jumping on the C4 train Al? Seeing as you're already MIDI'd up and all for presets, it should even be able to replace the Manta (and who knows, maybe the GR2 and FI depending how good a job they did!).

Kev Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 Will certainly replace the Manta! 🙂 I returned an FI a day after I bought it. I still have the C4 two days later.... 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, but there's something wonderfully archaic and satisfying about twiddling about with pedal knobs when you've got HX Stomp, FI, SA Manta and Aftershock all needing PC editing and / or midi. That's quite enough deep menu diving for one pedal board thank you! 11 minutes ago, Kev said: Will certainly replace the Manta! 🙂 I returned an FI a day after I bought it. I still have the C4 two days later.... 😂 Haha - FI for a DAY!!! That's gotta be a record 😁 The 2019 bass synth-lover world is going to split into two camps: the Boss SY-1 and Source Audio C4. Cavaliers and Roundheads. If you're a bass synth-lover which one are you? All good fun.

danbowskill Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 (edited) Just got a sovtec deluxe ( on sale at gak)..been meaning to try this for a while as I loved the russian reissue but it was missing the thing this has. And my lord! It's everything I ever wanted in a fuzz. Surprised you don't see many of these on boards around......so happy with it 🙂 Edited July 19, 2019 by danbowskill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kev Posted July 20, 2019 Share Posted July 20, 2019 Didn’t know that pedal existed! How does it compare to the real thing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danbowskill Posted July 20, 2019 Share Posted July 20, 2019 Been many years since I played a original green russian, hard to say it's identical. Having sweepable mid's ,clean blend and a gate bolted to the green russian reissue is absolute fun. They only "bass" comparison I can find Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr4stringz Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 First time I’ve done this and didn’t even manage to remember to take a proper pic so apols for quality! Anyway, started a two piece thing so got my signal split - one ‘bass’ rig (Ashdown ABM 400 into TC RS212) and one ‘guitar’ rig (Hartke HA2500 combo). Board is Korg DT-10 into an EHX Switchblade Plus... Bass then through a Malekko Assmaster and TC Ditto. Top end into a T-Rex Quint for the octave up and a bit of added fifth, EHX Pocket Metal Muff, Reissue EHX Green Russian Muff. Plan on also adding a TC Mojomojo for a non-crazy bottom end dirt option and maybe a delay somewhere in the chain. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0175westwood29 Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 so my custom made littel board is living now to turn my pedaltrain pro into my second board that gets used for my second amp (the little line of EQD plus a few more moogs! ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
