Thats as far as i know as it was a similar set up to Time is running out which was two deep impacts[/quote] The bass sound for the verse of Time is running out by Muse (is that what you mean?) is just a keyboard with some clean bass.

A lot of the advice seems to relate to headroom, peaks, getting more out of your gear etc. If that's all you want i'd highly recommend the BOSS Limiter. (just don't use the enhance circuit)

Heh, when I was gigging a few people actually offered to do it for me. I thought i'd better decline as then i'd have no excuse not to run around and jump up and down etc.

But then i'd have to touch my actual pedals with my feet, like some sort of rotten plebeian

I'd bloody love one but i'd need more like 20 loops than 10

Incidentally I think Karnivool use those gig rig switching systems - very cool and much more tidy than my tap dancing effort.

I thought that "gig fx" did exactly what you need but I can't find it on their site now. I wanted to do a similar thing myself a while ago and this was the only pedal I could find to do it. It was too pricey for me so I just danced on two volume pedals instead. I used my LS-2 to mix the two signals together.

nice! I'd happily gig with that board, it seems to have most bases covered

I always used a schecter with soab bars, both pickups about even with tone flat. I recently aquired a new bass with jazz pups and i'm using this with no neck, all bridge and EQ flat. It sounds amazing!! I use a lot of pedals etc so i've always "cut through" but this jazz has taken it to new levels. You might find that the lack of low end from the bridge pup gives you more headroom to turn up your amp, which obviously will help too.

I notice you're in stoke... If you need to try out any pedals you're welcome to PM me!

when I say "nuances" I mean subtle differences in harmonic overtones and distortion etc, not a big mid scoop.

any tube screamer type pedal with the tone turned down would do this sort of sound wouldn't it?

Just on the ODB-3 - on low gain settings with the hi EQ down it's allright. I don't think it'd be a tubey sound though.

I slap my 6. I never learned to hit the right strings, I just mute all the wrong ones instead.

I've always used pedals to get the sound(s) I want out of mediocre amps. You might tell the difference between your valve rig and a pedal when you're playing alone, but int he context of a band with distorted guitars - who's going to hear those nuances?

i'd never do an originals gig without being totally happy at at least one rehearsal.

Remove the plug and it instantly reverts to whatever tempo you had it running at before. DD-20 has no midi capability unfortunately... If it did it would be a better unit that the Eventide Timefactor IMHO. I use and old Red Sound Voyager for my midi clock (middle of board 2). You can either set it to any tempo between 90 and 180 bpm and off it goes, or its reads any other audio source you feed it, calculates the tempo and generates a clock in time. I feed it with the metronome that we both listen to so the midi clock is perfectly synced to the click we use.[/quote] I guess I saw the midi port on the back of the slicer and just assumed the DD-20 had one too. Does the red sound voyager output tap tempo which could be fed to the DD-20? I've never heard of that device but it looks great! (and discontinued )

very tidy shep I was playing with my dd-20 and slicer the other day along to a click. I usually just use tap tempo but I wanted it really tight. I've never tried to sync them with MIDI, is it easy? And can you get a standalone midi-clock to go on your board?

ahhh, i've not seen promo videos, I just thought it'd be dead useful for someone with a WH-4 (I can change modes on my XP-100 )

Shep have you seen the molten voltage midi 2 for controlling your whammy? excane - that's a great idea!!

[quote name='I am not excane' post='1294040' date='Jul 5 2011, 10:09 PM']So we've gone a few pages here with not a lot of pedal porn. Shall I jumpstart this? Yes......... I was bored. [/quote] All those pedals and no hoover?

I'm getting a similar sound, but I like it a bit brighter. I'm using a guitar distortion pedal (I think it's probably a tube screamer clone) blended with some compressed clean. I absolutely love his sound. I'll try and do some clips!

I always use a DI for the low end and whatever mics they have on the cab. I wouldn't want a kick drum mic. As I don't need the low end, any old 57 or 58 or if they have some nice mics for the guitars cabs... Some soundmen would complain, others were brilliant.

the cab would sound the same but be able to go louder? Or yeh, if you're pushing your cab too hard at the moment, then you would sound better
