The Badderer

try holding the other strings while you pluck the one you want, it'll kill the extra harmonics.

in comparison to a Squier Jazz that is an absolute steal!!

https://www.absolutemusic.co.uk/dunlop-18-volt-power-supply-ecb004uk.html this was what i got to power it you'll notice it says it can also power a dunlop power brick (i haven't done any research on that, just what it says on the page)

I use a dedicated 18V Dunlop power supply think it cost me either £15 or £20 something like that, but if you have one of the fancier power supplies you can use their high voltage outputs. Obviously if you're looking for a cheap option having to fork out on a new power supply doesn't help, but i picked up my one for about £30-35 as they're quite unknown, and the newer Danelectro pedals don't have a very good rep so there aren't many people looking for them.

i have no idea if i'll use that setting as i intend to use it with a GLab GSC-2 so can choose whatever order I want pedals to connect in (I think)

EBS freak will have a far better answer than me as i haven't used this feature yet, but my understanding of it is.... If you're using it in a chain of pedals, you can put multiple pedals in a loop coming from the Left Out returning to the Right In. What the Mobius then does is in the back menus you can move that chain of pedals before or after the Mobius pedal depending on the sound you want to achieve in each preset. With regards to the amp, you can effectively either move the Mobius before the PreAmp or Post the PreAmp like being in the effects loop. (I'm prepared to be corrected by EBS freak)

after spending 2 hours with the pedal this evening i definitely agreed about getting away from the presets. about half of them are useable (20-25), the others are set to show off and inspired you to delve into the much more extreme side of the pedal (remembering that it is primarily aimed at guitarists). What a great sounding pedal though, it is so will crafted and (aside from the more extreme presets) i haven't had anything other than a great sound coming out of it. This will stay on my board forever. Also agree that the pre/post feature is a great idea. having the flexibility of taking either some pedals or your amp and being able to move them before or after the mobius is a great idea. gonna start to look at programming some of my own sounds tomorrow night. works beautifully with overdrive / distortion in front of it. gonna see what happens when i move some in front and some behind it.

from the limited play i've had, I find it's really usable and sounds really nice on bass (haven't played with it in a band situation yet!) many tweakable settings that can make a big difference to the sound, http://www.strymon.net/documents/MOBIUS_FactoryPresets.pdf these are the presets it comes with from the factory http://www.strymon.net/documents/Mobius_UserManual_REVD.pdf this is the user manual. as you can see it has 5 different chorus settings and there is a notable difference between them. The mulitverse sounds really impressive straight off if you want a BIG chorus sound. Had a really nice sound out of the Detune setting straight away too with very little tweaking. I didn't have to much of a play with the dBucket or Digital one yet. I'm gonna have a more serious look at it tonight. Other settings that sounded great out the box with minimal tweaking were pretty much all of them aside from Autoswell / destroyer and quadrature as these all need a fair bit of tweaking in all the different parameters. The rotary / vibe and the vintage and pattern tremolos sounded really nice and different. On a side note, whatever they do with this pedal it makes such a great improvement to your general sound with whatever setting you have. I haven't been so impressed with the addition a pedal can have to my sound before. really worth the money (i would say only if you're going to use a MIDI system as £3-400 for a pedal that you have to navigate banks to access more than 2 presets is a lot, with the MIDI it just means you can really go for some sounds that are really "Out There" and nail them with just 1 press of a pedal). Excited

If you just want a simple but amazing sounding Chorus pedal try a Danelectro Cool Cat Chorus, not the new ones you need to get the old metal18V model from the 90's. These are really cheap, rare(ish) you have to wait for a bit for one to come up. But really incredible sound and really simple to control, just 2 knobs. Best bang for your buck chorus pedal in my opinion but you have to be patient for the right model to come up. I have also just splashed a load of dosh on a strymon mobius and i'm starting to move into the world of MIDI so can actually make use of the insane amount of effects on this pedal. Very versatile and have some great sounds from it already https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VHCFxqFdFz0

Just picked one of these up yesterday. Going to be part of a new MIDI controlled pedalboard. Always wanted one but didn't bother getting one until i realised that MIDI was the way to go so I can get the most out of all my pedals. I have been going through the online factory presets and going to have a look through the whole thing this evening. Just thought I would sound out the brilliant basschatters to see if anyone had some tips about getting the most out of it. Thanks in advance

Steve sold me a Source Audio OFD and Orbital Modulator and Soundblox Hub v1 and a Ditto Looper. All received very quickly, great packaging delivery. All working fine after 1 day of testing. Very happy

have you not considered the Source Audio gear for this. very good for this. you will want to look at either a bass envelope filter pro, or the Manta filter, and consider the use of a hot hand. these things are amazing! http://bassdirect.co.uk/bass_guitar_specialists/Soundblox_Manta_Filter.html

I'd say this thread is as good a reason as any to buy either from trusted BC'ers or if buying from new, decent UK run shops like Bassdirect or Manchester Bass Lounge as mentioned where they actually act as a proper middle men, who care about the quality of their stock because it's their reputation. All basses are not equal and people like Thomann have some amazingly cheap deals on certain gear, but along with that cheapness goes a complete lack of care for you as a customer (dare I say it, but as a Brit you probably aren't going to be top of the list for decent customer service from them). Found sandberg's comment of... if you want a properly finished bass, pay more (paraphrasing)... interesting. Heard lots of positive comments about their basses, but will be fairly wary of them if i was to look at one in the future and would want to check it fairly carefully.

sorry ignore my above, i just reread properly and understand why now. i've been up for 15 hours and a bit tired!!

I ask a bit of a simple question, but if they split so easily (rather than having to reconfigure the entire board), can you not just keep them all on one board, and then just only start and finish your effect chain on the bottom row (when you need fewer pedals) and then for when you need more, just plug into the top row when you need the other effects. forgive me if that's a bit simplistic (i am someone considering setting up 2 pedal boards too )

If you were prepared to go up for a Jack Casady but liked the look of an Epiphone T-Bird, for the extra money, this will blow all of them into next week http://basschat.co.uk/topic/197657-spector-rex-20004-holoflash-thunderbird-and-upgrades/page__hl__spector%20rex%20brown

The only one i can comment on helpfully is the epiphone T-Bird, neck dive is mega, but there is apparently a solution, drill new holes for the strap and if you hunt around on here there are some threads to show you where to drill the new holes. However my other advice would be it is a very inflexible bass in terms of sound. You will get about 4 sounds out of it. I use mine as a bass to teach the youth on as i don't mind it getting knocked around. I have gigged with it in the distant past, and it was fine, but it won't set the world on fire. I'd prob recommend a squire type something (like your looking at) if you have a nice P bass, a lot of people on here seem very happy with squire J type basses.
