[quote name='DanFold' timestamp='1424421888' post='2696067'] Ahh got my rig, on to Ampeg now from Orange. just a few more peggles to purchase. I'm after tone I got in the studio, plus some pitch trickery. No stereo things goin on, just a mint blend of direct clean, maybe chuck a sansamp in there, and my filthy pedals as a second chain. Maybe a third chain for more control over pitch. If it'll sound like arse through 1 amp though I'm not gonna bother. Don't trust most sound engineers to mix my sound haha. [/quote] i have thought about a two amp rig but same as you i worry that a sound guy really wouldnt get it, im going to do it on recording my bands next ep. but live it might be a pain! andy

indeed i think exeter seems like a good place to put something on anyone got a venue?

[quote name='Ant' timestamp='1424343566' post='2695287'] the chorus into the fuzz is awesome! cant get enough of it Tom also increased the gain available on the fuzz, so the normal max gain is around 3 o'clock and then i can push it a bit further for some super swelled out phat phuzz [/quote] its awesome innit! its always on and gets put with different fuzz and dirt pedals to suit. only one that its off for is the heliotropic.

[quote name='Ant' timestamp='1423907966' post='2690199'] Just took delivery of this monster!! ""Midoctachoruzz" Custom Bass Multi-Effects This pedal is totally stupid... and that's why I love it. With a T-65 Octave, analogue chorus and Grand Tarkin Bass Fuzz together in a series loop, all in parallel with a mid-humped clean blend you are not going to get a nice subtle "I just want a little bit of amp-like breakup when I dig in" kind of sound. You've got a pedal for that already, it's cool. This pedal has a knob labelled "Honk" and totally gets away with it. Built specially for Ant Wright of Brawlers in a joint bid to make some nasty sounds on Radio 1 and festival stages this summer. Winner." [/quote] i approve of this greatly! beast of a pedal. i have the chorus on all the time on my "Red 5" andy

Dependant on time and how far away it is I'm south brent count me in can bring my pedal board and a few basses, also probs my ctm 100, but defy ctm 15

[quote name='Wooks79' timestamp='1423243997' post='2682772'] Anyone else had much of a play with these yet? Sibob, any updates on how yours is treating you, or have I missed a seperate thread? One of these is really starting to work its way onto my want list, as I want as close to an OC2 but with more options if possible, and love Toms work. [/quote] My red 5 pedal has the t65 in it, apart from the effects loop, I use it sparingly in our set but it's an awesome octave very thick and full and the filter is really cool can be synth filth if you need it.

been married since may and havent noticed my ring getting in the way at all! and mine is quite a large ring about 6mm wide andy

So finally got to use this in a band practice! an amazing amp, such a fat sound, it cuts really well! i dnt mind that the eq isnt going to give me massive changes as i dnt need it to! it sits in the mix and takes pedals really well, throw some thick fuzz at it and it just becomes a beast!

A band i love in plymouth just dropped this single and video! normally a two piece, however have a guest bassist on this! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tjaDME2wcvs&feature=youtu.be andy

the venue i had been thinking of for plymouth isnt free so im ok with having exeter as the venue. just dnt know it so would have to hand the reigns to someone who whos places it could be held. andy

now able to listen to the whole ep for free on Spotify! https://play.spotify.com/artist/12Vu8I2RyluveNn60clyaD

done a bit more set up work on this to bring the action down a bit! bleedy stonking bass! played it for the first time thru my 810/ctm100 combo! Epic! gonna be using to basses at gigs i think! to good to not play! andy

i had the everything standard for a good 8 months, in my metal band with new D'addario pro steels, and it cut thru really nicely, nice grind etc. didnt need to change really but just fancied getting a set of nordstrand pickups to throw in it, and it just made the out put and bit hotter (not masses tho) and made everything a bit better sounding all round. still have stock controls tho only the pups have changed. andy

looks like they learnt from the Ob1k being to big, in both watts and size for whats needed. https://www.orangeamps.com/products/bass-guitar-amp-heads/ob1-series/ A 500w and 300W versions, looks awesome the original sounded sick could be a a nice amp, im also guessing similar price to the bass terror. andy

blimey some of those fuzzes sound wicked! andy

nice bass dude! andy

[quote name='ctiza1' timestamp='1421625853' post='2663485'] Thanks for the advice all, so whats the solution? how do i match up amps and speakers? when the cab blew I wasnt playing that loud? Is it possible that playing in drop D could cause this? [/quote] doubt it, but maybe if you are pushing alot of lows, of there are large spikes in the sound, i know first hand its hard to pick out a cab struggling thru dirt or fuzz, i have a hpf (high pass filter) thats doesnt let anything below 40hz go to my amp.

think the last one went well, whos up for another? maybe in plymouth or exeter? theres a venue in plymouth that might let us use it in the day big room good sound. get a nice bunch of guys/gals together as much gear as we can and see what happens? Andy

[quote name='ctiza1' timestamp='1421620295' post='2663437'] When the last one went my eq was pretty much flat (bass slightly boosted), we down tune 1/2 a step normally and i have a drop D tuner which I was using at the time but still not as low as a B on a 5 string. I must admit I do normaly drive the cabs well but not to the state where theyre being over driven [/quote] nothing out of the blue there then, i drive my ashdown pretty hard fuzz, octaves and chorus all at once at some points and we tune down a whole step and drop c, are you using a tweeter? andy

Are you pushing alot of lows into the cabs? as even tho your below the rated wattage you could still be pushing the cab hard? andy

not the best audio quality will do a better more in depth one soon! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2CsIDf2V6mY andy

[quote name='Machines' timestamp='1421547070' post='2662670'] Only whales can hear it. [/quote] im actually a bit surprised how well it comes over, yes its low and in a band mix its just gonna be a rumble, but sounds pretty decent thru my 212/ctm-15 home rig. have made a short video using my ipad to give an idea will try in following weeks to do a better demo with a mic on my 810 mixed with a di. will post a link when the video is live on my youtube. andy

i see your keeping this now, good choice, i had to sell mine due to money and not gigging in an old band, was a beast well worth grabbing a lighter cab and putting up with the weight. andy

[quote name='Kev' timestamp='1421538051' post='2662595'] Checked out your videos, Andy, enjoyed the pedalboard run-through! Have you considered Darkglass gear? Listening to your distortion and gated-esque fuzz tones, the B3K/B7K and Duality could be right up your street! [/quote] been thinking about grabbing a b7k for a while, also glad you liked the videos andy
