Try and do as much on the HX as possible, I know it’ll do something like the Ricochet. And what I mean when I recommend something like the Ricochet is you want a momentary octave up ramp/jump. Should be easy to recreate in the stomp

Sorry ignore my suggestion of the Digitech Drop, I should have written Ricochet. https://digitech.com/dp/whammy-ricochet/ This will allow you to do what he does with the whammy but in a smaller pedal. The HX Stomp can do it with a momentary setting or with an expression pedal/footswitch. I’m not quite sure of the specifics but plenty of people have done it. The stomp is definitely the way to go as trying to do it with single pedals whilst fun is less flexible and far more expensive. Twisted to me is a blended signal maybe with a light octaver on it into a filter and then a phase or chorus just to give it more warble. I could imagine that the G5 might be doing this and it’s a really easy sound to get with one of these but 🤷‍♂️ But listening to You can cop these tones easily with the HX

Rabbit hole now. So if I was doing this with single pedals you need a blend, a fuzz maybe two, a filter, a fuzzy filter like the EHX Bassballs or a synth pedal and I feel like a phaser and I’d run all of that into a fairly gritty Sansamp. There is fuzz all over stuff, I’ve never really known where he uses the G5 but then I’ve never been able to get the swirly squelchy sound of Twisted. Which is always where I hear most of the fx. If I had to do it with a small board I’d grab an EHX Bass Big Muff - the new MXR Bass Synth (with a switch for the presets) or a Digitech bass synth wah (depending on budget) - MXR Phase 95 - Sansamp. Big board (no budget) I’d have a split going into a boss or source audio programmable eq pedal into a sansamp or the qstrip for clean and a ehx pog - digitech drop - jhs crimson or a wren and cuff box of war - jhs bender - digitech bass synth wah - digitech synth wah - mxr bass synth - analogman mini chorus - into a gritty sansamp then blend them back together and run that into a Neve DI or your choice of clean di box. I’d probably use the gigrig wetter box and have the expression pedal for controlling the blend. I’d also likely shove my Subdecay Noise Theory and a Mojohand 442 or Dod 440 in there. Grab a Stingray, that would do me and be hella fun to play. If I was doing it with a multi, I could cop the tones with a Zoom MS60b+ (it has a g5 emulation in it) but wouldn’t give me the switching I’d need live so I’d be on the HX Stomp or Anagram. I could probably do most of it with the MXR Bass Synth from what I’ve seen. I’m enjoying this thread too much.

No better, all hail the MXR 😂😂😂

Long live the MXR 😅

I came across this at the weekend. I could spend ages picking out fx here, there’s definitely octaver use, I always felt the EHX Bassballs was a big part of the sound, a big part of the pedalboard was an old Korg G5. With a multi you’re going to have to programme it in, picking out the sounds and effects in use. Other than that it’s well over a grand in various pedals I’d say to get the various textures going on. I found this picture which looks simpler than his older board https://www.facebook.com/OfficialCassLewis/photos/pb.100063918541965.-2207520000/1972539592847681/?type=3&locale=pt_BR But there are definitely a bunch of pedals under the Digitech Synth Wah and the Korg G5.

Yeah I’d go multi as doing it with single pedals is a lot of pedals. Huge sound and I love Cass Lewis

Don’t forget its ability/inability to make coffee

https://www.thomann.co.uk/kasleder_albatross_bass_fuzz.htm Well hello option with a returns policy

Add your 20% vat and you get a good chunk of the way to the difference.

Aimed primarily at the country market but I don’t see why you couldn’t fool it with a lower tuning

Well here’s a thing apparently ”It appears in that video that you have two options for running stereo- TRS from the main output or using the second jack.” So you can in fact have stereo and expression.

They seem to have basically sold out of around 3000 units in a day. But, if it was smaller, or just a bit bigger, or if it had midi, but not those 3.5mm ones but also not the big ones and oh I don’t like usb c on pedals, but I don’t want to carry an adaptor for b. Anyway I’m buying one, with 0 use cases other than not needing 3-5 things to do this and have fun at soundchecks.

But does it make a good coffee?

I don’t, I barely get enough channels to play mono live let alone stereo.

Yeah this one is mental, examples like “I can’t see a way when using the jack for expression that the same jack could be stereo….. what a failure, I 100% need all these features all the time.” “Bought the pedal this morning, it arrived, it makes a terrible coffee, it’s going back. It’s basically ruined my life.” I’m exaggerating but I’m also not 😂 it’s a pedal, useful maybe, fun sure, necessary 🤷🏻‍♂️

Fair enough and I think that’s true for all the people on other forums going, why doesn’t it have usb (apparently it does inside), why can’t we share presets, connect it to a computer etc. Just buy something else, we’ve all got loads of options these days. For me who’s been on the fence over a C4 for years because I don’t enjoy messing with my phone when playing it’s ideal. Same sort of vibe as the controls on my Subdecay Noise Theory but simpler than the Subdecay Pixelwave. This probably gets rid of the MXR BOD and Mojohand Filter off my board (Other than the filter is only there because it looked weird with the gap 😂) and then anything I use the Zoom MS60b/+ for. A nice thing to have with minimal faff to play along to modern pop songs.
