  2. [quote name='bobbass4k' post='1137365' date='Feb 22 2011, 05:36 PM']Pretty cool song, might have to check out more of their stuff.

    Sounds like a synth pedal to me, couldn't tell you which one or which settings though. I'd probably do it with an octaver, a LPF (Low Pass Filter) and some mild distortion, might add a phaser in there for good measure.[/quote]


    thanks for that. defo check out more of their stuff. making waves for good reason

  3. could someone please check out this video to my mates band and suggest what effect creates that bass sound? he's very hush hush on his setup.

    cheers

  4. So i picked this up cheap and i'm playing around with it. Getting some, well, decent(ish) sounds. Whilst i'm messing around with it i thought 'would'nt it be nice to have some examples of other bass players settings??'. So here we are. Apart from the obvious 'get rid of it jibes' can any of you lovely folk give me some examples of settings? That would be ace.

    Cheers

  5. Well Leeds is full of good venues and decent promoters.

    A good one is Carpe Diem as it's free entry and right in the centre of town. Get in touch with a promotion group called Under the Radar or Andrei for the At The Crossroads night. Both on alternate Saturdays. No pay but always a decent size crowd and the customary free beer. Onstage sound can be a tad hit or miss but overall a nice place to deal with. And they put on all sorts.

    Cockpit's a good venue and is mostly sorted through Andy at Futuresound Promotions. They generally require you to sell tickets but it's one of the better venues.

    Brudenell Social Club is by far the best venue IMHO but getting a gig there can be tricky. Great place to play. they get alot of relatively 'successful' touring bands but its small and has a MASSIVE local community.

    There's a bunch of other decent venues aswell but it would take an age to list them all with their promoters etc:

    Milo's - city centre. Don't really put on metal but they love blues, indie, hip hop and punk
    Smokestack - city centre. Funk, soul, hip hop, experimental
    HiFi - city centre. Funk, soul, jazz, hip hop

    These and the usual university rooms and O2 academy (unfortunately i wouldn't know;().

    One last thing is a clubnight at The Library venue just outside town in Hyde Park. The night's called 360 and it's run by a chap called Richard Watson. He's the best promoter in Leeds and does loads for 'unsigned' local bands but he may well help out of town bands/artists too. He puts on loads of different styles but they generally sit well together.

  6. Come check out some footage of a band i'm doing some bass work for:

    cheers boys and girls

  7. So, I love to hear synth pedals used. Some not so much but as a bass player there's much fun to be had. The only problem that I'm finding is that applying them in general music is difficult. On my own or jamming they sound awesome but including them as a part within a song is a different matter. I'm finding it difficult to use any of those far out sounds but would very much like to. Can people suggest tracks where they sound great? Apart from Prince, P-Funk, JK etc. Is there music out there where a nice synth bassline sits perfectly? Please help and help me extinguish these demons

    Thanks

  8. So, just got a new pedal board through the post and sorting out what goes where. My previous board was somewhat of a ramshackle affair and i want to get it all sorted. Coan someone advise me on what would be the recommended signal chain for my effects?? Rather than listing them all here they should all be in my signature.

    Your help will be greatly appreciated!!

    Cheers guys

  9. Playing a bit of bass for Dan Audio at the Library Venue in Leeds this coming Friday 26th November. Doors at 8pm. Think we're on at about 9.

If you click where your name is next to one of your posts you will see a small version of it coupled with options like "view member profile", etc... What you want for the pic that appears in your posts, is the [i]avatar[/i] . :)[/quote]


    thanks for that!
