DanOwens Posted July 4, 2009 Share Posted July 4, 2009 Hey guys, The 'Holy Trinity' was mentioned in the cover band thread and I was about to add mine but I wondered... 'How many variations can there be?' Mine? [b]Octave Fuzz Filter[/b] Sick synth madness!! What's yours? Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ezbass Posted July 4, 2009 Share Posted July 4, 2009 Up until recently it was Chorus, Octave & Compressor. A change of amp lost me the octave (I'll be replacing with a pedal soon though) and I just stopped using the compressor. I've also got an MXR M88 dist/DI box, but that's only there for amp failure these days, I think I might replace that with a Sadowsky preamp/DI, but man they are not cheap.

warwickhunt Posted July 5, 2009 Share Posted July 5, 2009 [i][b]Octaver[/b][/i] (Boss) - [i][b]Chorus[/b][/i] (Boss) - [i][b]Phaser[/b][/i] (EHM Small Stone 'original') I also now have an EBS Compressor but I'm not sure that I'd class it as an effect and it hasn't earned a place on my pedal board as yet.

iamapirate Posted July 5, 2009 Share Posted July 5, 2009 Tuner (ok, it's not an effect - but it does help my sound!!) --------- Synth (EHX BMS) Overdrive Wah. and all 3 at the same time!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finbar Posted July 5, 2009 Share Posted July 5, 2009 Cream Pie Memory Man (kills a few birds with one stone) Digitech Whammy There's stuff like a tuner, but that's not the same thing. I could tune up with a non-pedal tuner before playing if I had to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dannybuoy Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 Bass BB -> VT Bass is my core sound, if I had to pick a 3rd it would depend on the genre, either an MXR Carbon Copy for post-rock or the Option 5 Destination Rotation Single rotating leslie speaker sim for blues / classic rock, or a Supercollider fuzz for heavy stuff!

Happy Jack Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 Does the Option 5 actually work well with bass? I thought it was a guitar effect that could also work with keyboards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XP-100 whammy/wah LMB3 limiter a dirt pedal! I can't decide which one. I most like the sound of guitar pedals in a blend loop, so I can't put my usual ones!

ase_one23 Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 i love that 2 people have a whammy as an essential cant-do-without-it pedal. much awesomeness! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EskimoBassist Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 This thread is almost impossible to reply to! It would have to be: Fuzz Overdrive Octaver. Actually no! It would be: MXR M80 DI DUNLOP 105Q Wah Korg AX3000B Multi :ph34r: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm liking the fact that nearly everyone likes a bit of dirt!! Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DanOwens Posted July 7, 2009 Author Share Posted July 7, 2009 No, Tom, [i]YOU[/i] can't have enough dirt. Most of us are happy with a handful of soil but you, sir, [url="http://www.alotofdirt.com"]need a Mexico-based land-grab company[/url].

cheddatom Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 That IS a lot of dirt. Thanks for the tip, I am making my first purchase as I type. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
