  2. Just been playing with my VT-1 and it gives a great gritty valve tone but judging by that YouTube video the SFT does that old school Ampeg thud better. R.
  3. [quote name='fatback' post='707110' date='Jan 9 2010, 09:24 PM']A DHA VT1 has done it nicely for me. [/quote] +1 Great for adding life to digital recording to. R.

  7. Poor tracking on Octavers drives me mad, I now have a MXR one that's better then my OC-2 but not much
  8. Wise words Si, but sometimes that rule doesn't hold up for me, for instance I have an expensive EBS MultiComp which is excellent but I prefer to use a CS-2 most of the time - Odd I know
  9. Thanks everyone for their help on this, unless someone comes up with another option I think I'll start out by trying the Zoom, I prefer small pedals to multi effects but this is the cheapest route so it's got to worth a go. if it doesn't dp the job I'll try some of the other suggestions. R.
  10. As I understand it (wrongly probably) the detuned note I'm using is only a fraction of a semi tone out of tune creating a thickening effect, don't quote me on that though!
  11. Wow! Beautiful looking bass, I would have loved this if it still had the 2 jazz pick-ups. Good Luck with the sale.
  12. [quote name='Sibob' post='701688' date='Jan 5 2010, 03:08 PM']I think the only blend possible is on the octave down (the furthest light on the left), not sure why you'd want to blend the original signal into a step or two steps down etc.....would sound dreadful lol. They look like they're coming in at about £149 Si[/quote] Weirdly that's what I'm doing with the plug-in, the dropped signal is only on at 40% causing a kinda subtle chorus effect but without any added modulation. maybe it's just covering up my poor fretless technique R.
  13. [quote name='Sibob' post='701615' date='Jan 5 2010, 02:12 PM']The Morpheus Droptune looks very impressive on guitar, seems to track full chords very well. I'd be extremely interested to see if it worked on bass! Si[/quote] Cheers Si, That's a pretty impressive polyphonic pedal, any idea how much it cost? there was no mention of a blend control between the dropped and original tone which seems like an omission. R.
  14. [quote name='xgsjx' post='701595' date='Jan 5 2010, 01:54 PM']My Zoom 708 has the very thing you're after & funnily enough, it's called Detune. I bought mine for £26 of ebay & have given it to my mandolinist to use on her mandolin, but she's reluctant to use it![/quote] I had a quick look at the Zoom website and it does seem that their multi effect pedals have the detune function so this could be a cheap option to get the sound I want. I'm not a fan of red or multi effects units but hey if it get the job done cheaply I can't complain Many Thanks.
  15. Thanks for the info cheddatom, I'll put the Whammy on my list of pedals to try. R.
  16. [quote name='cheddatom' post='700274' date='Jan 4 2010, 10:30 AM']the chorus on a digitech whammy might be appropriate.[/quote] Is the chorus on the wammy the same as other chorus effects? I have tried a couple and they dont give quite the same sound as the pug-in. Cheers R.
  17. [quote name='ritch' post='699935' date='Jan 3 2010, 08:30 PM']Nope - the pitch knob will move it up or down by a 3rd, 5th, 7th, 1 octave or 2 octaves (worked out from which Key you have the "HR Key" knob set to). To be honest I haven't used it for any of the doubling up notes effects, just the tremelo arm setting, so I can press the pedal to make it dive bomb to an octave below. Rich[/quote] Drat as I think it's the fact that the second note is slightly out of tune that is creating the sound I like. Thanks for your help. R.
  18. [quote name='ritch' post='699793' date='Jan 3 2010, 06:32 PM']I have one of these, which works excellently on bass. It's got a detune function, and the ability to mix this with your bypassed sound. Not that expensive - probably a third of the price of the POG![/quote] Cheers ritch, I had a look at some YouTube videos of the PS-5, they were all demos on guitar sadly but it may do what I need, does it has a control for delaying (Latency on the plug-in) when the shifted note starts? Also is the pitch knob infinitely variable or click in preset increments? R.
  19. [quote name='dannybuoy' post='699691' date='Jan 3 2010, 05:01 PM']Looks like this plugin mixes in a pitch-shifted voice rather than modulate the pitch like a chorus pedal does. The POG2 may be overkill but might do the trick:[/quote] Good point dannybouy it isn't a modulated sound just an added voice pitch shifted, the POG2 would be an expensive way to reproduce a free plug-in, I wounder if there is something a bit cheaper that does the same job, I have Octavers and they don't do it as it's a perfect octave, I need something that makes me sound even more out of tune on a fretless
  20. In Cubase I have been using the free plug-in by MDA called Detune on the fretless bass parts and really like the sound a lot so I was wondering what sort of pedal I would need to recreate this sound in a live situation, to me it doesn't sound like any Boss phasers, chorus or flangers I owned in the 80's. Any help would be appreciated. R. [attachment=39242:MDA_Detune.jpg]
  21. That's an absolute stunner! Out of my league at the mo' but out of interest what is the string spacing at the bridge?
  22. I was clearing out a cupboard today and found an Audiophile 2496 that I was convinced I had Ebayed last year! I thought I would offer it up on here first. It's a few years old but is fully working, boxed with manual and the CD's that came with it but you would be advised to get the latest drivers from the M-Audio website. [url="http://www.m-audio.com/products/en_us/Audiophile2496.html"]http://www.m-audio.com/products/en_us/Audiophile2496.html[/url] I have no idea what it's worth so I'll start at £25 including postage.
  23. [quote name='gnasher1993' post='693876' date='Dec 26 2009, 06:26 PM']I really like it but I'm not using it at the moment so probably best to move it on. I'd be happy to sell it. Once I'd covered customs charges etc, I payed £95 in total. I'd be happy to sell it on for £90 posted. There's 3 on ebay at the moment, one silver screw (like mine) which is up there for £130 so I think £90 is reasonable. Let me know if you fancy it, feel free to make an offer if you think that price is a bit much.[/quote] I'm very tempted but best say no for now as I have just checked the post Christmas bank balance and it's not looking good! All The Best R.
  24. Hi, So you didn't get on with the CS-1 then? do you want to sell it or is it just trades you want? I only have an OC-2, CE-2, CS-2 or SO400 I could offer up in a trade and I doubt any are of interest to you.
