Total Watts

  1. Worth it for just the octave-down effect you can get from it. Great pedal. GLWTS
  2. I have vague recollection of seeing some pictures of folky/prog bands using something similar for those tricky banjo/mandolin/dulcimer/sackbutt interludes. Deffo a touch of theatre for the band above, but quite a boon if you struggle with the weight of your instrument. Not sure I could stand still enough!
  3. I used Fast Fret for a year or two about 30 years ago. Apart from making the strings slippy I didn't feel it added much sonically to my set-up.
  4. I played a gig with a twice Mercury Prize-nominated drummer a couple of years ago. Not who we wanted, but the best dep we could get on the night.
  5. Despite rumours to the contrary, my curtain rings are the just the same size as everyone else's
  6. Thing is, Mr. Navarro could play my pubic hair strung across a curtain ring and make it sound great
  7. One bass, lots of basses, it really doesn't matter if you ask me. Be a purist or a polyglot....it's up to you. 👍 I have quite a few basses because I wanted them and could afford them. They'll all get sold eventually and they're all going to get some love until then. Rock what you got
  8. Deffo ! A good cheerful story to start the day
  9. This has thread crashed my pad almost every time I've tried to load it
  10. All frosty buddy Yes, as two separate tracks, recorded simultaneously. For my clean signal, I have a preamp/HPF pedal first in my effects chain that has a pristine DI out and that just goes straight into my interface. Everything after that in the pedalboard goes on the effected track. Even if you don't have a dedicated DI box, getting something clean onto a track in your DAW is going to be useful, so deffo try the LS2 approach - it's all solid tinkering time and that's always a good thing, isn't it ?
  11. I'm with you on this E. I usually get a sound I like using external stuff and pedals and the use the DAW as a recorder to tweak the EQ slightly, compress a bit, whatever fits. Same with guitars too. Hardly modern, but it's my workflow baby What I would suggest, especially with bass, is recording a clean/DI track at the same time as your effected sound. What can sound good now might need something later, and having than clean track about to have later can be a boon. Nice heavy sound on that clip BTW
  12. Mrs. Pook does this as well. Hurrah for our splendid spouses !!
