  1. THE BOSS LMB-3 LIMITER ENHANCER.... offer's tremendous V.F.M it does the job & it does it well.... on the used market these pedals can found for £50 or less.... One note for this pedal...turn the Enhance Knob OFF!!!! for all it offers his hiss....other than that for myself it is a great introduction to compression @ a very affordable price.

  3. Ive owned Both & their is little to choose between both Empress & Cali 76... The Empress certainly has far Superior Metering over the Cali 76....thats for sure' G.L.W.T.S
  4. Nice Work indeed...can you offer us a Ball Park figure on a Ramp such as the one above...?
  5. Hi Dale...not as yet ive not found a ramp builder in the U.K. & so ive kind of shelved the idea....also its a kind of an expensive experiment in its self... So factor that in.
  6. I tested the Chromatron & to my ears the pedal was just a further development of what had gone before' it didn't have a radically different sound... Just more functionality as just what he had done with the 'Wonderlove Deluxe' the downside was the graphic print on the pedal peeled away when in contact with one's fingers... ( poor quality..?) I personally don't think we shall see any more of that particular filter... & the price.?????

    Envelope filters

    I've owned plenty of Filters & some of those are listed here' I completely agree with the analogy that they react very differently with different instruments' I have settled on an original ( & very desirable as they are no longer in production) 3 Leaf GR2 simply because of its, ease of usage Great Squelchy envelopes can be dialed in very quickly & it is an excellent sounding filter' unlike some of the 'way to quacky' laser beam effected boxes available now.
  8. No' I use electric instruments & all of our experiences may vary depending on what we are looking for in tone. It's subjective & I've witnessed Orchestral Upright acoustic players refusing to use external devices for the reasons I've stated.
  9. My experience's with outboard preamps has been that virtually all of the units really mess' with your instruments core sound & colour them way to much... & not in a positive light. As soon as you engage them' for myself you've lost something that's coming off your hands.... & the price of these so called 'Tone Monsters' is high indeed GK Plex' Darkglass' Tech21' EBS Microbass 3' Sadowsky' Lehle' etc' etc..
  10. Roscoe Beck' Will Lee' Johnny B Gayden' Robert 'Pops' Popwell.. those players who Groove & make the music 'Swing' for there are far too many more to mention here...
  11. Who has the inside info on ramp builders here in the UK... I'm looking specifically for Fender Jazz (1970's spec) any Intel would be be gratefully received.

  13. NEW STRINGS.......nothing improves tone better.
  14. T.C Electronic Dreamscape is a sleeper pedal. Originally for guitar' but it works brilliantly on Bass & giving you all of the toneprints from the Corona Chorus along with Flanging & Vibrato' Plus it's own Toneprints.... It's One Subtle Pedal...
  15. The best pedal I've found for accurate frequency shaping mids boost or cut' with added H. P. F & L. P. F is the Tech 21 Q Strip. Ive found it to be 'ultra quite' also & much better than other so called high end Preamps... its an extremely versitile little box.
  16. Just how many people in the audience or muso's for that fact' would know by ear just what make of effect pedal someone was using... I admit to having some units from the builders mentioned here... But their is an awfull a mount of hype or snakeoil surrounds certain manufactures products that people covert or desire...

  18. This Company has produced 'some' pedals that for myself remain unconvincing. Their last micro Compression & Preamp offerings remain uninspiring & lackluster so' viewing this.. their latest preamp offering it doesn't appear to cover any new ground...???? What's the big deal..??
  19. Origin are manufacturers of stellar guitar pedals ' expect to see plenty of these DCX Bass tone shaper's here on B.C on the used market in the coming months.
  20. I've a 70's jazz bass of a simular weight & I bought this exact strap.... They do take a "Lot of getting used too" & setting up.. I stretched a piece of belt leather diagonally from strap pin to strap pin... & fed the other shoulder strap around this ( A Guitar Bra if you wish)... Eventually I came to appreciate this design but' it took a long time of experimentation & paitence.
  21. Has anyone experience of the New' Becos JZ Overdrive Pedal' or the SFX Micro Red Dragon...? If so we would like to hear your feedback on these variations of the Tube Screamer for Bass..?
