Awesome drummer. Did a lot of work with Peter Gabriel. Lovely tight solid feel, one of my favourite drummers actually

[quote name='benzies123' post='834767' date='May 11 2010, 10:11 PM']How many layers does that looper do? I'm assuming only one but if it's any more I am very interested. Cheers[/quote] [quote name='pantherairsoft' post='834869' date='May 11 2010, 11:20 PM']It's a little hard to explain... I've never really got tongrips with it. The dial adjutant the level of feedback, it's very subtle until you hit the 'feedback point' which seems to be different for each pedal. When you hit the spot so to speak it makes some crazy swirly sounds or huge screams and bird songs for envelope filter. I'd say it sounds like multiple layers when you crank it up. If you want a more technical description of how it works in terms of layers I'd drop 'umph' as PM as he built it.[/quote] I have a feeling benzies123 might have confused the feedback looper with an actual sound on sound looper like the Akai Headrush or something. What a feedback looper does is feed the output of whatever's in the loop back to the input, ie, delay being infinitely delayed by itself or flanging a flanger etc. It yields some pretty crazy sounds depending on what you put in there!

That Stingray pickup came from me, didn't it? I'm glad I could be of assistance in the making of this beautiful bass! Get some sound clips up!!

I've had this with my Dad's LM2 before. I think it's something to do with the amp protecting itself from a surge of power to the input. It trips out, you turn it off and back on and it's fine again. Try turning the input down and the output up a little bit. I was worried the first time it happened to me as I thought I was gonna have to fork out to get my Dad's amp repaired but after reporting it back to him he said it had happened to him a few times too!

Hi all, Bit of a long shot this. I sold my DB112 a little while ago, and decided to keep my remaining NT just for home use and small practices instead of selling, but find that I'm really missing the tweeter. Just by any chance does anyone have a dual DB112 setup that you leave the tweeter off on one of the cabs? My cab is finished in chocolate thunder, and is in mint condition, with it's original padded cover. Ideally I'd like to do a straight trade for a DB112 (in whatever finish, it doesn't bother me!) but would sell outright for [s]£260 collected or + postage.[/s] *SOLD* Cheers James

It crossed my mind, however driving a nail through the circuit board of a pedal didn't seem too appealing

[quote name='D-L-B' post='822458' date='Apr 28 2010, 09:26 PM']Clean the rubber bases with methylated spirits or denatured alcohol and the sticky back velcro stays on there much better. I find the 2cm wide strips of stick on velcro from Wilkinson to be really good. Don't absolutely cover the bottom of the pedal with velcro either else it grips too well and will obviously tear off, you only need a couple of small bits to hold the pedal in place. [/quote] Sorry for the late reply. Thanks very much for your advice, will give it a shot today. Just out of interest would white spirit work? I've got some here, otherwise its a trip out to the shops

I bought both these cabs and am soooo impressed with them. One of these babies at 8ohm (ie only getting half the power from my amp) is louder and bassier than 2 8ohm DB112's was. I've only ever had to use one cab where as I sold my dual 112 setup because I wasn't loud enough! I found myself in the same situation as Gareth - the tone of the 12's was just perfect...but with one problem: I wasn't loud enough. My solution? Get MORE 12's!

[quote name='JackLondon' post='830822' date='May 7 2010, 05:00 PM']You can always get an effects loop pedal [/quote] That will still go into the front of the amp though, not what the OP was asking at all.

I always found I could hear myself better by bumping the mids a little bit. Scooping the EQ just results in a woofy clanky mess I find (obviously depending on how much!). I usually boost the bass and treble, then add just a touch more mids, so your still boosting everything for a bit more oomph, but just the mids a tad more to cut through!

Awesome! PM sent. Also for sale: Tonefactor Pulp Mill Compressor - I believe this pedal is one of a kind. It's a clone of the original Orange Squeezer circuit with some modifications to optimise it for Bass use. Lots of vintage thump here! Good condition, no box or manual £75 + postage EHX NYC Bassballs - Not the nano, the older, but still smaller than the Russian version. Brand new condition, has velcro on the bottom, original battery door is around here somewhere...£30 + postage Either can be picked up too. Pics coming soon. -
Ok up for sale is my Analogman Chorus. It's in absolutely mint condition and comes with the original box and manual. It's got the 3 way toggle switch ($25 upgrade), and Depth and Speed controls. This would be £165 + shipping and import duty from Analogman, looking for £135 collected, or + postage, which ever you prefer. *SOLD* Cheers Can take pictures of the actual unit if needed, but it's mint and looks exactly like this: Also for sale: Tonefactor Pulp Mill Compressor - I believe this pedal is one of a kind.
