I guess particularly neat if you're wanting to quickly and easily swap between EUB and electric bass mid set.

Been really enjoying improving my EUB playing on my Stagg 3/4 EUB during past few months. It's a great value piece of kit and exactly the right thing for me as a beginner. If I continue to work on improving my playing and start gigging with this with my 50s / 60s band next year, I'm kinda thinking that it might be nice to upgrade from this at some point in 2021, but sticking with a "free standing" EUB rather than the "stationary" EUB of the NS Design type. Be really interested to get your thoughts on and feedback on other EUBs you've had and in what way they would be a step up from the Stagg.

You mean like this? 😉

Looks interesting and just posting this here in case of interest to any fellow BC'ers - I've not tried it myself! Remote Presentation: The Stanley Clarke Signature Acoustic Preamp - Bass Musician Magazine, The Face of Bass

Haha, it was clearly a very slow day at work for you yesterday. But you've sadly just missed out on a gold star for your detective work. Folk are allowed to edit their posts, as you did, right? And I think you'll find I corrected my guess (although still not as good as yours), even before you had posted. You just needed to check the time stamps 😉 Right, back to the more interesting stuff of checking out Mr Mandrel's clip...😁

Nope

@Alfie Noakes please find responses to your query above. You'll need to excuse the pomposity of some of our fellow BC'ers, for which I can only apologise, as they seem to find it hard to imagine that not all bass players might have got to grips with all their pedals, but they seem to have at least provided the answer to your query.

Defo no need to apologise (can't have too much of Hooky can we? 😊) and welcome to the Yammy thread if that was a first post from you on here (and my turn to apologise if I missed any of your earlier posts!). Are you a current / former Yammy owner - if so, please spill the beans!

I guess I can better understand why the other chap was too shy to post on here now. And love the fact that comment is from someone who can't even manage to back-up their patches 😂 For the record I never really used my Stomp which is why I sold it and am only really just getting started on HX Effects, so indeed "no" in answer to your Q. Happy?

@krispn - here you go. It was a "first cut" idea and hopefully you'll be able to improve on it! Synth Patch.pdf

I had this query from a BC'er who has just moved from HX Effects to Stomp: "I only used the Simple Pitch effect, and wanted a smaller footprint i.e. no heavy case to lug in. The Stomp also has that effect, but I’m not too blown away by it. I can’t just turn it on and off, I have to go from effect to another effect, or total Stomp bypass." Obviously one of the nice features of HX Effects is that you can go into "pedal board" mode and treat a single patch as 6 six separate effects which you can switch on and off, each with it's own stomp switch and HX Stomp does not have the equivalent ability given its smaller footprint / fewer stomp switches and single display vs 6 scribble strips. That's all well trodden ground. But I was just wondering if there is a workaround for this chap's particular issue e.g. by using snapshots or similar? Can I throw this one over to the Stomp user crew please?

@Muzz - sounds like it's getting pretty close to what you've been looking for? @marleaux62 - Mick had exactly the same thoughts (great minds and all that?) and has come up with a cunning plan for sorting! If it works, I'll leave him to share.

The playing is nice, but you are using quite a lot of fx that I would not myself typically use, so personally I preferred your previous clips you uploaded for us in Jan:

Love your YT profile name - "Go Basserk"! Excellent!

We clearly need to get you into the office more often! 😁 PS just 102 mins to go now...

Ok will make a mental note of these for my KS. The rest of my herd can make do and mend with D'Addario EXL170s nickels which are 60% cheaper!

You've raised the bar with your analysis gents! 😁

Congrats on the new bass! Is it the ELIXIR Nanoweb Nickels you're recommending in particular?

I think he's maybe got this - Kemper Profiler Stage. Which is probably as good as multifx gets currently! (£1,433 from Thomann)

Scott playing @ped's old KS...

Need to figure what the possibilities are on Helix but if it can do what the EHX can, it basically allows you to sustain a note (or chord) whilst continuing to play a bass line. Probably of more value on original material / home noodling than covers. EHX Freeze [Bass Demo] - YouTube

I need to check out the new Poly Sustain - apparently it's been kicking EHX Freeze off pedal boards!

Always like the bass tone of Dua Lipa's bass player. Couldn't make out what bass and multifx he's using - love to know

We've been missing your MA clips Mr Basserk! Do you find that playing red basses really improves your tone and do your bandmates and audience notice the difference? And if it tears you apart then there will be red on more than just the bass...😁

Being small doesn't necessarily make you more expensive though. You have smaller overheads in terms of property and people costs for a start. Small professional firms are often a lot cheaper than big ones, for example.
