Nodd Posted November 14, 2011 Share Posted November 14, 2011 I have a couple of gigs with a guitar/piano, clarinet, vocals where I use my fretless Eko ABG. Some of the numbers are asking for 'atmospheric' sounds. Do any of you use FX with your fretless/ What would you recommend? You can see below I have an EHX MBS and an envelope follower, they are maybe a bit OTT and unnatural. I was thinking maybe reverb and chorus? Thoughts? Cheers in expectation, Nodd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xgsjx Posted November 14, 2011 Share Posted November 14, 2011 I haven't got a fretless (though it's on my list of "to gets" & a fretless 5 is at the top), but I hate that traditional 80s chorused fretless. Saying that, there's nowt wrong with some reverb & if the chorus is done right, then yeah. Maybe a delay & a filter would be good choices. But it depends what you're after. Mine's would go through octave, fuzz, filter, LPF & chorus & sound more like a synth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry_B Posted November 14, 2011 Share Posted November 14, 2011 I use a Boss CEB-3 with my fretless basses. It's a nice bit of kit that has a good range of possible tones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
