  1. Nice resurrection. I'm into hip hop, which reminds me:

    Demon FX D7K

    I'd say the Bass on that is fairly clean - the distorted wah type sound is from the guitars. You could do something similar with a Bass though, probably needs distortion + Wah and perhaps an digital Octaver pedal that does an octave up. A multi-FX like the Zoom B1-4X is probably a good starting point to get a feel for what each effect does before buying individual specific pedals.
  3. I'm with you on the C4, it's nearly great but the interface meant I didn't gel with it. Also agree about phasers - it seems to be one of the least used and discussed effects but is one of my favorite, funky in a more subtle way than envelope filters. I'll have to try the grape phaser (currently using the EBS Phaser which I like a lot).
  4. Another option: I like the EHX Switchblade Pro for 2x loops parallel /series and order switching + clean blend.
  5. @stewblack it's still available (or I guess now isn't!) have sent you a PM. @lee650 will message you if it becomes available.
  6. Prime Directive: Upsell cables
  7. These were the ones I used: Line 6 convertor Current doubler
  8. The Stomp has a current draw of less than 900mA ..... So I used a current doubler (not voltage doubler! ) cable running from two 500mA outputs of a normal power block (harley benton) and a barrel size convertor. All worked fine and does away with the need to use the line 6 power supply.
  9. I always feel that the colour of the sound of Bass guitars (clean tone) is a warm maroon type colour so that's what I tend to go for in Basses. Although if there was a lot of funky slap and filter stuff going on then it has to be purple.
  10. As the FI is a big brick of a thing I'll guess that didn't fit: OC5>Proton>Octava>VT> Zoom.
  11. I reckon you've gone OC5>Proton>Future Impact>Octava>VT going into the Zoom at the end. Or at least that's the sort of thing I'd probably go for with VT adding some tone shaping and overdrive to the previous pedals then the Zoom to add modulation and delay at the end.
  12. Cheers @la bam and @danbowskill I'll keep my eye out for the Silver Peg too. (I've owned the Crimson Red and really liked it... a set of these one control pedals would be pretty cool).
  13. I'm after a small and relatively cheap mild overdrive pedal with mid control, the 360 seems to tick those boxes. There seemed to be a lot of love for the Silver Peg followed by a lot of them getting sold- any particular reason? Any issues with the 360 or is the love still lasting?!
  14. That's it yes - it's a mix of clean vs the effected (effected =channels A + B, which each also have their own volume control)
  15. I seem to be pretty much in agreement with what others have said. My list of favourite to least favourite that I've used: Aguilar Octamizer: This is my favourite for adding a natural/subby tone, and the 'tone' control on clean is useful. It doesn't hold sustained notes very well though so you need to play accordingly. MXR M288: My current Octaver, I have owned two at different times without noticing any low-end warbling when not playing so perhaps they fixed that or it's dependant on your setup (or my ears aren't good enough!). It sounds nearly as good as the Octamizer for the subby side of things and probably tracks slightly better but still needs to be played a bit differently to normal playing, I like the way it can also do quite a decent version of that OC-2 more synthy type sound, and the mid boost is useful when feeding into an envelope filter or distortion/fuzz. Relatively small, well built/reliable and reasonably priced. Helix: Tracks really well and you can select how much for it to pitch both up and down. C4/Spectrum do an excellent job of tracking and decent tones but somehow didn't feel quite as good character of the tones as the Aguilar or MXR and not as easy to make changes as the Helix without phone/laptop plugged in. POG or Sub n Up: Track well but I didn't like the tones of these, but that can be masked if you are using other pedals after them. I'll be giving an OC-5 a try once they're available again (or an Octabvre if they ever become available) so perhaps it will replace the MXR. The only ones I wouldn't really recommend are the POG and Sub n Up as I don't like their Organ type sounds, I guess some people like that though and it's all subjective.

  20. Bought a pedal from Sam and it arrived quickly and exactly as described - all good. Thanks!
  21. It's a bit all over the place but there are adverts here https://www.facebook.com/groups/bassplayersavailable/?ref=share
  22. It seems that https://www.joinmyband.co.uk might have a bit more stuff going on.
