Had a very pleasant purchase from Geoff. Great coms, Arrived the following day, was very well packed. The pedal itself an EHX Bass Micro Synth was immaculate, as good as new. Would be very happy to deal with again.

[quote name='jetofuj' timestamp='1396345700' post='2412429'] Dreams come true sometimes, ha! I've been wanting D*A*M for bass for years and finally got one of these beasts few weeks ago. [/quote] Cool, does it live up to the expectation?

[quote name='Monckyman' timestamp='1396193933' post='2410799'] Need a bit of help. My setup: Fender P>M-Audio mobile pre usb audio interface>powered usb hub>lightning to usb connector(non apple)>ipad3>jamup pro. My problem is, I'm not seeing a signal into jamup pro from the audio interface. However, Jamup the free version, and all my other audio apps like Meteor daw all work fine with the Mobile pre. I can only get Jamup pro to see an audiobus routed signal ie: Audiobus- mic input> effects Jamup pro>speaker and that works ok, but it feels a bit laggy, (could just be me). What am I doing wrong with Jamup pro that it's not seeing my direct input? I have deleted and re loaded it but no change and I didn't see any "allow jamup to access microphone) type message either. Jamup also doesn't see the mic input when all the hardware is removed. Any ideas? [/quote] Hmm, dunno. I only tried it with the sonic port and an Irig both worked straight away?

[quote name='Muzz' timestamp='1396195940' post='2410837'] Great article, and just up my street these days. Ooo, I've got a quick question, too: how long's the iPad lead on the Sonic Port? Was going to use an iKlip on a mic stand, but I don't want the Sonic Port dangling... Cheers, M [/quote] Yeah the lead is about 60cms so its going to dangle. How 'bout velcro on the sonic port and the back of the iklip?

[quote name='RAY AGAINST THE MACHINE' timestamp='1396107105' post='2410013'] And the winner of that is me now where is the phaser..? [/quote] I'll keep my eyes peeled.

[quote name='jetofuj' timestamp='1395869117' post='2407522'] GGG Brassmaster. I must say that it's great. To my ears it's closer sounding to original Brassmaster than B:Assmaster that I've been using for years. [/quote] Great build, I've been meaning to do a Brassmaster. This kit looks like it could work well: http://shop.pedalparts.co.uk/BrassMaster/p847124_11795417.aspx Anyone here built one?

Ooh, I'll have a look at that too.

Just wanted to resurrect this to see if any opinions had changed or additions could be made.

I just spotted this and thought of your thread: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Boss-RPW-7-Five-way-Power-Supply-for-F-X-pedals-/271432085001?pt=UK_Guitar_Accessories&hash=item3f329cee09

@ Myke, see the're all chipping in now! Right then, I've just completed my Ginger and I can confirm its an awesome pedal.

[quote name='Sibob' timestamp='1395400941' post='2402007'] Excellent post Noir Si [/quote] Why thanks I've had so much help from people on here and the other links I posted since I started trying to build effects. I'm only too happy to pass on what I've found / learnt.

[quote name='Myke' timestamp='1395089388' post='2398615'] Ah okay, thank you. What (if any) are a good, simple starter pedal to try? [/quote] Hi Myke, What I would suggest if you are totally new to DIY is to get a simple kit such as this: [url="http://shop.pedalparts.co.uk/Bazz_Fuzz/p847124_6346768.aspx"]http://shop.pedalpar...24_6346768.aspx[/url] Buy it with a pre drilled enclosure and read the instructions thoroughly. What you need to start with is some confidence builders and soldering practice. The Bass Fuss circuit is perfect. Once you have got that one built try some other kits, try drilling your own enclosures, adding mods etc. Here is loads of very useful information for the novice builder: [url="http://www.beavisaudio.com/techpages/"]http://www.beavisaudio.com/techpages/[/url] When you feel more comfortable with soldering try some veroboard layouts: [url="http://tagboardeffects.blogspot.co.uk"]http://tagboardeffects.blogspot.co.uk[/url] and buy your bits here: [url="http://doctortweek.co.uk"]http://doctortweek.co.uk[/url] Best of all the DIY community are all so happy to share information, get reading here: [url="http://www.diystompboxes.com/smfforum/"]http://www.diystompboxes.com/smfforum/[/url] [url="http://www.freestompboxes.org"]http://www.freestompboxes.org[/url] I warn you though its a slippery slope, once you start you'll soon be hunting for vintage transistors or trying to build the ultimate Klon! Check out this guy, he started off building a few simple fuzz boxes and is now hailed as a DIY king (He's a bass player too) And notably he's the guy playing the 'Ginger' in the previous post above: [url="http://johnkvintageguitars.homestead.com/Overdrive-Pedals.html"]http://johnkvintageg...ive-Pedals.html[/url] Good luck!

Having just picked up a MkII Proton my vote goes for that. Very musical and seems to work well in my setup. I have recently tried out the MXR BEF too which I find slightly sterile although its a more versatile filter.

[quote name='NoirBass' timestamp='1395092893' post='2398681'] No, but I've been meaning to for ages. [/quote] Right I have begun, watch this space for details.

Just received a neck plate and screws from Graeme having placed and ad in the wanted section. Not only was this really easily sorted, but he refused to take my money. Top man, what Basschat is all about. Thanks again Chris

Mike bought my Korg Pandora Mini. Really easy transaction. Highly recommended buyer.

It's seems Fender must be watching this thread?! http://www.fender.com/american-design/

[quote name='Kiwi' timestamp='1395128992' post='2398897'] I've been using a laptop with Native Instruments Guitar Rig Kontrol for 5 years now which means I could take my laptop to a gig instead of multi effects (assuming I didn't mind risking some plonker spilling beer on it at some point).. I'm not clear on how the iOS is an improvement, can anyone enlighten me? [/quote] I'm not sure it is an 'improvement' just that Jamup seems a solid platform and delivers very good sounding amp models. The effects haven't impressed me that much yet. Also the fact you can use an iklip to put the iPad out if harms way also has its pluses. The thought of someone pouring a pint over my nice laptop sends shivers down my spine.
