  1. He wouldn't break the case or the switch. Maybe the pots would snap, but, I think if you buy it new it has a plastic "pot protector".
  2. [quote name='Jean-Luc Pickguard' post='77682' date='Oct 22 2007, 11:29 AM'].......I didn't really get on with the tuner pedal .[/quote] You have to turn your tuning pegs as well you know! :-p
  3. The French toast won't break if you don't re-house it. It just "feels" flimsy. I've had mine on my board for at least 3 years, it must have done 100 gigs at least, with me stamping on it. I've never had any issues with it that weren't psychological.
  4. I tried the limiter/enhancer, and I thought it was at least as good as the BOSS one.
  5. I need to sort mine out. Everyone else's board is so tidy! I need to drill and solder and etc though, and i'm just too lazy. I wish there was an easy way of tidying up my board!

    PC v Mac

    Yeh, if you spend your money, you can make a PC that looks just as nice inside, and outside. I built a computer for my brother who spent a load on a nice case and etc, so you get a load of drive caddies that slot in and out really easily, and clever cable routing and etc. It's just a bit pointless isn't it! I don't mind having a messy pc, 'cos i'm always messing with it.
  7. Keep us posted, I want to know how this sounds!
  8. I get B&Q and C&A, but maybe my mind's not dirty enough for M&S?
  9. I prefer your version too. I was wondering if it might possibly be true, in which case i'd be e-mailing everyone telling them how rude their favorite DIY shop is, so I googled it, and, no :-(
  10. Ahhh, the other one I was on about was the DANELECTRO DJ22 BLACK LICORICE which is the next one down on the list at thomann. It's seriously noisey though, I doubt many people would like it.
  11. It's spelt distortion There are loads and loads of appropriate distortion pedals. I think you'll get a lot of recommendations on here, but, that won't necessarily help. Are you after a specific sound? If you like the distortion you've already got, try mixing some of your clean signal with it, using a boss LS-2 or a DHA Bob the blender or similar. This should retain some low end and clarity.
  12. Seriously try those two danelectro mini pedals if you get the chance. I know it sounds like a budget-only option, but, IMHO they are very cool pedals, especially on bass.
  13. I bought a DHA BOB the Blender from Jim, and he was a dream to deal with ;-) Packing was thorough, postage was quick (even through the strike - weird!). Thanks!
  14. Like Kev said, try an MT-2, although, that's not really fuzz. I really like the danelectro French Toast (not sure if I got the name right). It's an octave/fuzz but you can turn off the octave. It's in a plastic case, but you can change that for the price. Someone else on here said they loved this pedal too. Edit: There's another danelectro octave/fuzz that's black instead of light blue, and this one is mental! Also great for bass, but, beware, it's seriously dirty!
  15. Interesting. I'm going to watch the video when I get home then. I've never had the opportunity to play an octaver which could track each individual note in a chord, but i'd like to!
  16. heh, I guessed that means that it can generate 2 different octaves at once, rather than reacting to each note in a 6 string chord.
  17. You need a mic (sm57 or copy), and a pre-amp (or maybe a usb mic). The pre-amp can plug into your PC's line in. As far as software, I tend to recommend cubase, but then, I get told off for recommending you steal it.
  18. I can't listen to that demo at work. I'm just wondering if it can cope with more than one note at a time?
  19. I don't think you'll find a pedal to satisfy him. Octave pedals in general, will have a bit of glitching going on, although most of them are quite good for guitar. Maybe try a midi pickup and effects unit.
  20. [quote name='Aussiephoenix' post='75772' date='Oct 17 2007, 09:00 PM']i got the fx25 in the wobo 2 looper and right before the end of the chain of fx, OUT of the looper, I have the ebs multicomp... maybe I need to recheck my compressor settings... [/quote] Not necessarily, you might have to compress it too much for your liking, to get rid of the volume spikes. A dedicated comp in a loop with the filter would work, but, you don't really want to go to that amount of effort/expense do you? Actually, a good one would be the behringer limiter/enhancer, 'cos it's very cheap and will deffinitely do the job.
  21. I think zoom distribute their cubase through "bit torrent software LTD".
  22. Can you get an analog delay with tap tempo? Weird. I have an analog delay, but I just use it to generate a horrible noise. They're quite good at that.
