    Nothing beats a good tutor, but failing that, I always find the 'Dummies' guides are very good when starting something from scratch.

    Another demo from Digitech: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GnBivW-2uas&feature=youtube_gdata_player

    [quote name='AndyTravis' timestamp='1380313140' post='2223819'] Still wish it was two pickup, the Gibson 335 bass solved that for me though. [/quote] Would love this with two pickups!

    I feel quite fortunate that I was one of very few dedicated bass players in my local area! Lots of demand. I think most bassists in bands locally had this conversation: 'I play a bit of guitar!' 'We don't need a guitarist. You can play bass.' '... ok...' :-( Made me look good at least!

    [quote name='redstriper' timestamp='1389458117' post='2334386'] [media]http://youtu.be/pJV2pWFyfn4[/media] [/quote] Arrgh! My tutor tortured me on this one! So simple, but try and play the entire track, keeping the timing and feel perfect all the way through!

    I bought my Bass Driver ages ago before I really appreciated what it did. With recent changes, I am now regularly playing with no backline, just DI'd straight into the PA. Sansamp is great for this, though I prefer less colour so I run it with the blend all the way off. This still allows use of the Level, Bass and Treble controls.

    We really must get a decent video up one day... The old phone-cam video just doesn't cut it anymore. Also, mental note - remember to sing in tune...

    [quote name='oakforest5961' timestamp='1390425162' post='2345418'] This thread is making it fairly clear - there's no one-size-fits-all when it comes to plectrums. [/quote] This sums it up really!

    I like the comment during the video that they can't really tell the difference tone-wise between the clean and effected tone! This does sound like it's going to be a great tool (no pun intended, metal fans...).

    I want to work for Pedals and Effects... They get all the best toys first!

    Bump again!

    [quote name='Paul S' timestamp='1390404711' post='2345045'] Another Dunlop 1mm user. They last for years and even when rounded off at the bottom are great for 'less attack'. Although you can use one of the round top corners for that if you like. I lost one the other day - first time in about 10 years! [/quote] Same, I never lose picks!
  14. iamtheelvy
    Agreed. I think i'll keep to the smaller pedals...
  15. iamtheelvy
    I'm not confident enough in myself to wear that much pink...
  16. iamtheelvy
    Is this a standard RT or one with a mod? I have really bad timing, as I've only just bought another Fuzzrocious pedal at full price!
  17. iamtheelvy
    These are really nice basses - look great and are really versatile!
  18. iamtheelvy
    Perhaps easier to play, but harder to play something new...

    Hey

    iamtheelvy replied to Tomjbass's topic in Introductions

    Welcome to the site!

    [quote name='BigRedX' timestamp='1390397422' post='2344886'] Interestingly in my days as a guitarist... I decided that I would prefer to use the DI output live... [/quote]
  21. iamtheelvy
    Yeah, I've got a Voodoo Labs 4x4 which has a fairly hefty output, but think it might still be pushing it... Quite interested in the Organizer...

    I do have a Line 6 M5 already, but wanted to save the real estate on my pedalboard! Considering that as an option though, any experience on powering an M5 off of a standard power block?
  23. iamtheelvy
    Nice looking bass! I'm not really into white finishes, but that aged white look is very cool! I'm sure a bit of upgrading and some TLC will make this a great bass.
  24. iamtheelvy
    Another thought to consider is to blend, or not to blend. I used to always have a clean tone blended with my distorted signal, but fell out of love with my tone. After getting different pedals with a more bass-directed approach, I now have a fully distorted tone and am much happier with it!

    [quote name='lojo' timestamp='1390388825' post='2344732'] I find pick is way louder, but recently the limiter is working wonders, I wonder if its my technique , to heavy maybe ? [/quote] I don't know. Haven't really thought about it much. I used to use a 3mm pick, but found that it actually made my bass [i]quieter...[/i]
