bazzbass Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 how did it go? pics or it didn't happen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leonard Smalls Posted December 2, 2017 Author Share Posted December 2, 2017 Went very well - played too fast (drummer's fault, we could tell that from the lo-kwality recording!) but tight and no other major pink torpedo-ups. A free-improv jazz drummer who happened to come along is interested in doing a "rock project" with us, which could be interesting!

But I'm glad you have blessed gentleman vegetables. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'm glad you have blessed gentleman vegetables. Good thing you couldn't see the pedal board as well! The Wal goes into the Yamaha FX770 fx unit, which is basically functioning as a pre-amp and tuner; this goes into one channel of the dbx, which feeds the active input of the Marshall amp. FX loop of that goes into other dbx channel - with much more compression and some level reduction into Wounded Paw V4 blender, which has a bass whammy and Darkglass distortion on 1 loop, 3 Leaf envelope filter on another and Boss bass synth and DOD envelope filter on another, then back into the Marshall. Speakers are the MarkBass 2x10, and the enormous one is a Yamaha reflex cab with a 1x15" Precision Devices driver (just reminding myself how it all works, though why it all is thus is a different matter entirely!) And the Markbass cab is by far the lightest of all of those things... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
