Ta da! My I'm late to this discussion!! Many many types of low pass filter - I can't really add any more to what has been said, you need to try them to see what works for you. The Moog one has a rich warmth to it which is great for Electronica, although I find its envelope resonance to be quite understated compared to others. My 1st purchase from Moog would always be an MP-201, it is the glue that holds the bass in eletronica, from fat dub EQ settings to synth sweeps. No contest, don't look around, do not pass go, do not collect £200. Buy an expression pedal with it as well, connect it to cutoff and with the pedals you already have, you have got yourself an electronica set up. I own another 3 foogers and an MP-201 and use them all in my live set up. I don't own the murf, although I have played with it. For LFO duties, you can either rely on good modulation effects (chorus and tremolo) after the LPF, or do what I and John Davis and Bond (Miloopa) all do, which is to connect an MP-201 to it and control the cutoff knob with a triangle wave or similar for huge sub wobble - this is however very expensive as a set up, and I do think that running a good tremolo after the LPF still gives great results. Advantage of the MP-201, as well as it being the glue that holds foogers together, is that it accepts midi clock, so if you and a drummer play to a click, you can ensure your tremolo's are in exact time - as opposed to setting them up by ear. As for a 2nd choice - The obvious second fooger to go for as an electronica bassist is the Freqbox as paired with the LPF is a monster for crazy noise and swells - however, it's not as versatile as I'd like and if I could bear to sell it (again) I'd prob fill it space quickly. I use the phaser as it's massive sounding and creates some stunning sub textures, but my real 2nd choice would be the ring modulator! The Moog Ring Mod, on low settings is an amazing LFO an tremolo in itself, in fact it's the best tremolo pedal I've used on a bass... In its extreme settings the soundscapes it creates are amazing. It interacts great with other pedals and has become the Swiss army knife of noises on my board. Hope that helps... Shep

It is pretty special looking!! Just need to rehouse 2 basses bow and I'm good to go! 1 fretted, 1 Fretless - living the dream

They certainly don't. It's being string with Black Beauties before it's shipped and then it's all mine!

Pic just in from the US. Will ship from Roscoe HQ to Bass Direct this Thursday... STUNNING!

Give Max @ SFX a shout. I'm yet to find a pedal that man can't fix!

Dude, I'll see you at the Canalhouse tonight. My other half already has the tickets! Looking forward to it. Shep

We discussed the project for a while before I posted, but start to end will be around 10 weeks.... Very quick.

I'm told this is 'nearly finished'! Hoping on more progress shots later...

Justin's chancellor - Bassist for Tool. Most amazing tone in the rock business IMHO. Amazing bassist. Amazing band. I saw a recent video tour of his bass set up and he was using at least double the number of pedals you see there. Amp set up was the same. I notice he's had a bloody good hair cut!

Thanks Si. Really appreciate it. It was a great night, I'd go as far as to say the most fun gig we've played - and possibly that I've ever played. Great great stuff. Crowd were amazing. Thanks for coming dude

[url="http://www.flickr.com/photos/xgsjx/6039938614/"][/url] Looking to add an OC-2 or similar & maybe another EP-2. I also want an octave up pedal to use on a separate channel from the OC-2.[/quote] I remember when mine looked like that - lol

I'll keep my feelers out for you bud - Welcome to 'Gun City' (Shottingham as us locals call it ) Shep

I agree with the above 100% - it's basically the reply I was about to write

Damn that's impressive!! Google maps is almost a cool as we are! Lol. We're expecting Alex 'Karizma' Mighten (Awesome Dubstep & Grime MC) to join us on stage for some freestyling and improv' too so maybe the trip via Belgium would be worth while! Shep

[quote name='Ancient Mariner' post='1338171' date='Aug 12 2011, 08:57 PM']Just emailed him to ask about availability & supply, plus mention breakage issues. Let's see if I get a reply. Seems to be a real shortage in the popular guitar gauges too.[/quote] Any news?

Boom! See ya there dude!

This Wednesday folks. We've agreed to open this one so a little odd for us not playin at 1am on a club night. I'm told we are playing 8.30-9. Means an early night still

Traded a Hercules stand for a Warwick rack one. Easy transaction, great communication etc etc… Cheers dude!

Pleasure... The M13 is a beast. If I'd of discovered that before my huge board tool form I'd of saved a ton!

[quote name='Chris2112' post='1339803' date='Aug 14 2011, 05:37 PM']They do, but for whatever reason I just never found playing 4 on a 6 to be as comfortable as playing 4 on a 4...if that makes sense! [/quote] Makes perfect sense. I guess it's mainly due to familiarity, although one mans ideal is another mans nightmare. I've played 6ers exclusively for nearly 2 years now. When I pick up a 4 it feels so odd and I'm not at all comfortable moving around the freeboard as I'm so familiar with the 6 now.
