tayste_2000 Posted July 18, 2007 Posted July 18, 2007 Now this is something new I picked up and you have to guess the effect I'm using to produce this sound [url="http://myselfalone.com/tayste2000/Weird_Effect.mp3"]http://myselfalone.com/tayste2000/Weird_Effect.mp3[/url] I will tell you what I've used except for the mystery item. Passive 60's RI MIM Fender Jazz with Flats, tone rolled all the way back and neck pickup with a Digitech PDS2000 set for about 5ish repeats at less than a second just for that bit of ambience then it is straight into my computer hence the odd pops and stuff dotted about but you'll get the gist. So guess the effect Quote
ped Posted July 18, 2007 Posted July 18, 2007 Loads of reverb set to bass and 100% wet? Slow Gear? It sounds like a whale giving birth to a tugboat... do they make a pedal of that? Quote
MoJ Posted July 19, 2007 Posted July 19, 2007 Is it a violin bow? Or a 'make-some-Sunn O)))-esque-noises' pedal? Andy Quote
joegarcia Posted July 19, 2007 Posted July 19, 2007 Is it just an analogue delay that you can mix the dry signal out like my old Carlsbro one? Quote
Dood Posted July 19, 2007 Posted July 19, 2007 I like the sound of this game.. I'll give the clip a listen when I am near some 'peakers! lol Quote
DanOwens Posted July 19, 2007 Posted July 19, 2007 Are we guessing the pedal or the effect? DaN Quote
tayste_2000 Posted July 19, 2007 Author Posted July 19, 2007 What was used to make the sound other then bass and a delay pedal Quote
ShergoldSnickers Posted July 19, 2007 Posted July 19, 2007 A compressed air line pointed at the strings to get them vibrating. If it's not that, then I claim copyright! Mmmm I can see it now, a 'Vibratair' pedal with mini compressor and a key press arrangement over each string to deliver the air. Well it [i]might[/i] work. Quote
dr.funk Posted July 19, 2007 Posted July 19, 2007 Fretless simulator? Or a delay set to loads of repeats with an incredibly short time.. Quote
ShergoldSnickers Posted July 19, 2007 Posted July 19, 2007 It sounds like something mechanically sounding the strings. I experimented years ago with a small motor to which a wheel was attached. The outer edge of the wheel was soft rubber and it made a similar sound when gently pressed against a string. I got lots and lots of hum from the motor though. In fact Kevin Godley and Lol Creme used a similar but professionally developed device called a 'Gizmo'. This was attached to the bridge of a guitar and small wheels could be made to 'bow' the strings by pressing down buttons. Its a long shot, but it sounds as if it ought to be something like this.

Alpha-Dave Posted July 19, 2007 Posted July 19, 2007 I assume the delay is responsible for the 1/4 second repeats. Sounds a lot like a synth with all the attack is removed. The notes ring out a lot on the lows and hight so a ring modulator would seem likely, but I couldn't guess the brand. Quote
Muppet Posted July 19, 2007 Posted July 19, 2007 You've ditched the bass and taken up playing a cathedral organ...? Close I must be, c'mon... Quote

Dragonlord Posted July 19, 2007 Posted July 19, 2007 I know, but I won't tell. I'll only say I just got a ban warning on TB because of this Quote
Bloodaxe Posted July 19, 2007 Posted July 19, 2007 Would it involve something that doesn't have a medical degree? Quote
