  1. Yeah i'd keep the tuner, the one on the M9 is all over the place when you tune!

    My board is basically dirt pedals and a filter with the M9 as I find they're the weakest things about it. The looper is also good fun, its really easy to use and I find it useful for playing around with song ideas on my own too.

  2. [quote name='chrismuzz' timestamp='1326452619' post='1497327'] I'm thinking of getting rid of some of my pedals for a Line 6 M9. Mainly for Delay/Reverb, chorus, and phaser... Does anyone have any experience with them? What are the compression models like? Im using an Agular TLC at the moment so not expecting to be blown away! And would there be a dirt setting that could replace the Bass Big Muff Pi? [/quote]

    The M9 is excellent for delays and reverb. The modulation on it is ok. Its not great but its not bad either, just...alright. I havnt tried the compression on it but I dont rate the dirt at all, they all feel really thin and tame to me. Its a pedal you can get a lot of use out of and I reckon its worth going for. Ive put mine back on my board again recently and it just gives me a few extra options than the space with my singles does. Add in some easy tap tempo and the ability to change any parameter with an expression pedal, and it means you have a lot of options at your feet.

    I was thinking of selling mine at one point but im glad I didnt now. Its a good complement to the pedals I have.

  3. [quote name='pantherairsoft' timestamp='1326387491' post='1496593'] Everything has it's downside. It's a bloody killer. Sounds ace though so all worth it I guess! :) [/quote]

    I still remember ages back when you sold off a load of your pedals and were using a PT-mini. :) Oh how things change!

  4. [quote name='EskimoBassist' timestamp='1326098032' post='1492096'] Same, I don't really like the super exaggerated sound you get with it after. [/quote]

    I do the same with my modulation these days for exactly the same reason. I like the subtle textures you can add underneath dirt.

  5. I've been on a bit of a spending spree, so im looking to get some money back on a few pedals im not using anymore. All are in great condition, all have velcro on the bottom, and prices include postage too. Payment by bank transfer preferred, will accept Paypal too.

    So up for sale we have:

    [s][b]SFX Micro Fuzz[/b] - Based on the Colorsound Bass Fuzz. This is the older version without the mid switch. [b]SOLD[/b][/s]
    [s][b]SFX Black Dragon[/b] - Bit of a buzzier distortion than a clanky one (my descriptive skills arent great). Plenty of low end as with all sfx pedals. [b]SOLD[/b][/s]
    [s][b]Aguilar Agro[/b] - Full on distortion that can get quite fuzzy at high gain, comes with original box and manual - [b]SOLD[/b][/s]

    Feel free to ask if theres anything you want to know!

  6. I had a quick check but didnt see any posts about this. Just seen this from the Barefaced Facebook page;

    "SALE NOW ON! Up until Xmas we're offering Compacts with a £100 discount. Get your order in before 23rd Dec to qualify."

    Its up on their website too. Ive wanted to try one for a while now, but I might just go mad and get the 2. Cant argue at saving a couple hundred quid!

  7. [quote name='SirChewey' timestamp='1319846269' post='1419412'] Try and play a passive Jazz through it, you may find it opens up a whole new world. I find I can play any style through it and can get a huge range of sounds. All I use is my bass and a compressor for my sound, and play everything from funk to jazz to rock and metal and does all of this to a high standard. Personally I have never seen the point with actives, I just find them a little dull through most things, they just seem to have this artificial sound. Sorry for all you active players out there, nothing personal, just my pref.[/quote]

    Yeah, I have been considering picking up a cheapish jazz and seeing how I get on with it. I had a mexican 5 string years ago that I didnt like, but they were early days and I didnt know much about gear then or how to get the sounds I wanted.

    Ive played a PJ bass through the Terror and it did sound more what I was hoping for. Less breakup, a fatter tone, not so much honk in the upper mids. I think because most actives have a strong low end, and the OTB is very bass heavy, theres just too much going on there. Its all boom and no thickness.

  8. [quote name='SirChewey' timestamp='1319795101' post='1418606']I've found that this amp is perfect for passive basses, you can really work the sound with your fingers. Actives in this amp sound dead IMO....[/quote]

    I'd agree with this. I only play actives and ive been forcing myself to try and like this amp for ages now. Something just isnt working for me though.
