  1. Got an Octamizer a little while ago... I really like the tilt EQ control on the clean channel, I wasn't expecting it to be as useful as it is. If you have your octaver early in the chain, adding the extra subs can end up feeding too much signal into dirt pedals, driving them pretty hard. By rolling off a bit of low end from your dry signal, you ease up on the amount of bass going into the rest of the chain which makes things sound much clearer and tighter as a result.
  2. Hopefully he is too busy licking stamps to affix to DP3X boxes to read this!
  3. And you will need it for now as the pitch shift is not as good as the Tender! However there was heavy hinting on a TB thread that Line6 have hired people that worked on the POG algorithms so a decent polyphonic octaver should be in the pipeline!
  4. The Teemah is comparable to the Rumble. I couldn't get a muff sound that responded well with my bass from the new selection but the legacy one worked much better for me. Don't be afraid to dig into the older effects thinking that all the new ones must be better - you need to dig into the legacy selection to get a decent octaver for one!
  5. Depends what kind of drive you're after, but the B7K sim is pretty much bang on and the Teemah (Timmy) has decent low end and sounds very nice also, either for a woolly vintage Motown type tone or something more aggressive.
  6. I was assuming 2 days also, otherwise I will not be a happy bunny!
  7. You might be pleasantly surprised by the drives in the HX and not necessarily need an outboard one. Most of them are guitar oriented, but since you have the ability to clean blend or even split the signal with crossover, you can work around those issues.
  8. If you end up using just the Rumble amp sim, may as well save money and just get the Rumble V3! However the SVT and Bassman models sounded pretty damn good to me in the demos.
  9. If this pedal will achieve anything, it will bring this young 'rapper' with his fistful of $1 bills a few more hits on his Youtube channel!
  10. Another pedal that some of you synth crowd will be into: https://malekkoheavyindustry.com/product/downer/
  11. I've no idea, but I like #2 the best!
  12. I was looking around for a garden office recently and came across these guys, they have examples of sound proofed studios too: http://www.boothsgardenstudios.co.uk
  13. Looks like a iRig Stomp but with Mac/PC compatibility. Could be pretty nifty when paired with a micro PC like the GPD Pocket. You could even run Helix Native or the Darkglass plugins on it. Edit: looks like there's a new version from IK Multimedia that looks even more flexible: http://www.ikmultimedia.com/mobile/products/irigstompio/
  14. No I have a 1025X but sorely tempted to add a 735A to the stable!
  15. Geezer doesn't carry his own amps! He has a butler for that.
  16. Also don't make the mistake that the fundamental is the only frequency to be concerned with. A low B is 31 Hz but most speakers can't reproduce that very well so it's mainly the harmonics (e.g. at 62 Hz and 124 Hz) you are hearing, which tricks your brain into hearing the fundamental when it's not there. Anyhow, I think the main reason for wanting an octaver that tracks low is not to try and produce subs that you would struggle to amplify, but merely to stop it glitching when you do have to play a low note. Anything below regular open A sounds far too muddy with octave down, they're more suited to adding low end to higher register playing, which is something you can to an extent cop on an 8/12 string.
  17. Kids today you see, they like to take drugs and dance to Casio keyboards (or Boss OC-2s) in darkened rooms:
  18. Aha, but I’d like to hear your 12 string sound like a bass synth! https://1drv.ms/f/s!ApKsVfvGwYkOiqcUT79WoDBsenS1pQ
  19. That and the £2K price tag!
  20. Except the Orange Terror manual has no mention of this and it's even incorrectly labelled cut/boost either side of the 12 o'clock markers! Manual: 5. BASS CONTROL The bass control adjusts the bass response of the amplifier. 6. MIDDLE CONTROL The middle control adjusts the mid range response of the amplifier. 7. TREBLE CONTROL The treble control adjusts the treble response of the amplifier.
  21. Nice one! I work from home so will be able to have a cheeky go as soon as it lands!
  22. One of these will do nicely! http://m.dx.com/p/gpd-pocket-7-aluminum-shell-mini-laptop-umpc-windows-10-system-cpu-x7-z8750-8gb-ram-128gb-rom-silver-488406?tc=GBP&ta=GB
  23. I'm going to name my next band 'Automatically Add to iTunes'. iTunes sorts its music files into artist folders, and also adds anything found in the 'Automatically Add to iTunes' folder to the library. I wonder if it will get stuck in an eternal loop if you added a track with that set as the artist name!
  24. Post-Rock band names are all a bit pretentious as well. Four words minimum, the more the better.
