  1. Yeah, It's pretty harsh- Square wave trem so basically flicking between on/off. An envelope filter afterwards and some reverb definitely help to soften it a bit. ...there's always the other trems and the panner for smoother sounds, but there's no way of sweeping through beat divisions with an expression pedal in those patches.
  2. Glad it's of some use. Will try and get a video together if I get a chance. ...yeah they're great sonic magic makers. Finding cool tricks all the time. - expression pedals really bring a whole world of possibilities: morphing between settings, fading effects in/out...etc
  3. Line 6 M series pedals are great, but sadly lack the ability to control beat divisions with the expression pedal(s). However, this morning whilst playing around with my pedal board trying to get some sounds for a new gig I stumbled on a little workaround if you're wanting to control beat divisions of a hard trem effect (useful for those trying to achieve dubstep wobbles). Thought some might find it useful... Here we go: 1. Pull up the "Pattern Tremolo" patch in the Mod section 2. Assign the "speed" knob to beat division: Crotchet (1/4 note) 3. Set all but one of the number knobs to "SKIP" (or set them all to the same number values) 4. Set your remaining knob to "1" in heel down, then "3" in toe down. Set the tempo by tapping and you'll now be able to sweep from 1/4 notes to 1/8 note triplets, with standard 1/8 notes in the middle of the sweep. Setting the beat division to lower values allows wider sweeps: Whole note allows you to sweep between most divisions you could want (except dotted notes) - the number value denoting how many beats will fall in the bar... though this makes it harder to hit the in between settings of the sweep accurately, hence my favouring the 1/4 note setting... thought i imagine some practice would help here. Unfortunately this effect doesn't allow any other control over the trem settings: basically it's fixed on a hard square wave trem. Now you can wobble that bass to your hearts delight!
  4. been after one of these for a long time.... if only i had the money... off to see what i can a sell have a bump on me.
  5. [quote name='BigBeatNut' post='1064628' date='Dec 20 2010, 01:55 PM']SOLD. With some regret I might say. Lovely bass, but it just wasn't getting any use.[/quote] Thanks again for this very lovely bass! I promise to take good care.
  6. If i can get my [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=150476317026&ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT"]amp sold[/url] then I would very much like to take this precious little monster off of your hands... could even collect as i'll be around bath/bristol in two weeks...
  7. I've now listed the full rig on ebay: [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=150476317026&ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...=STRK:MESELX:IT[/url] Starting bid is £350 so go grab yourselves a bargain.
  8. [b]£400 for both together[/b] I'm open to any interesting offers and trades as well.
  9. Due to down sizing and beginning my quest into the world of All-Tube setups i am sadly having to sell my rig: [b]Ashdown ABM EVOII 300 Head - £200[/b]: 325 watts RMS bass amp. In good condition- a little bit of wear on the handle (and the odd mark here and there) , and also the led behind the VU meter isn't currently working (should be cheap to sort out). Otherwise pretty much as new. Sounds great and has been my main amp for a loooong time and always been able to stand up to plenty of traveling and use in many situations. Received a full tech look over back in February 2009 (the LED has gone in thew last few months). [url="http://www.ashdownmusic.com/bass/detail.asp?ID=5"]http://www.ashdownmusic.com/bass/detail.asp?ID=5[/url] - All the tech details from Ashdown [b]Ashdown ABM BP1510TX Cab - £300[/b]: 650w 4ohms bass cabinet. In good condition - again a bit of wear to the leather covering a few nicks here & there, most noticeably a tear on the back of the cab in the bottom left-hand corner, and a tear on the bottom right hand corner, and a few scratches on the front grill. In great working condition and this thing sounds great! Alongside the ABM 300 this has been my main gigging rig and has excelled in every situation i've thrown at it; from hip-hop to hardcore punk sessions and everything in between. Basically a 2x10 and 1x15 combined into one cab this is super versatile and nice and LOUD. great cab. (will try and get some better pictures up by the weekend). [b]Photos[/b]: [url="http://www.flickr.com/photos/52005219@N04/sets/72157624359732233/"]http://www.flickr.com/photos/52005219@N04/...57624359732233/[/url] [b]Collection[/b]: I am based in Watford so nicely accessible thanks to the M1 and M25, though travel a fair bit so may be able to work something out ( would consider meeting at a half-way point as long as it's it's not too out of the way). [b]Payment[/b]: cash on collection or papal, if you really want to pay by cheque that is an option too (though i'd probably need to wait for the cheque to clear before parting with the amp/cab) [b]Trades[/b]: I would consider the following trades- Fender Bassman Head (silver face) or Ashdown Little Bastard. [b]NEW OFFER (22/7/10): Buy both together for £400[/b] [i]Collection would be preferable, but if this is not possible I would consider postage at the buyers expense.[/i] [i]If yuou would to view and/or try out the gear please feel free to contact me and we can arrange something.[/i]
