Jag_Bassist Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 anyone know of a good setting to get that reallllly low bass sound on a moog low pass filter? im trying to get it for some really deep chorus' in my band, and i dont want to fork out f[font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]orr a DOD..[/font] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xgsjx Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 Nope, but you've got me curious. I'm gonna have to go hear this Dod now. Without hearing it, my only suggestion is to turn the envelope amount & the resonance to 0 & put the cut off to @ 10 o'clock. Having the res above 2 reduces some of the lows that it can produce.

xgsjx Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 Ahh, a Meatbox. If you want a Meatbox sound, I think you might need to get an FX32. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pantherairsoft Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 What you want to do is run an octave pedal into the Moog with settings described above. The Meatbox has an octave down as mart of it's sound so you'll need to recreate that to get that low! Then use the LPF to remove the highs and beef the lows.

Sibob Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 How low does the Moog go? An OC-2 (synthy octave) with an EQ after the fact would give you an approximation. The Boss GEB-7 goes down to 50hz, the MXR Kerry King goes down to 31hz (Meatbox territory) & the Boss PQ-3B (rare) goes down to 25hz Si Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pantherairsoft Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 The Moog will filter everything out as far down as 20hz - meaning with the filter right down you get silence as our cabs don't do that. With the filter rolled back around the 75-80hz point with an octave pedal before it you are in serious amp clipping lows! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jag_Bassist Posted May 26, 2013 Author Share Posted May 26, 2013 Thanks for the help guys, the sound was missing the octave before it. Stuck a oc-2 before the pedal and it sounds huge. Might use my sans amp as a DI to the desk then also back into my effects loop Bass> TC RH450 with compression > effects loop > oc-2 > moog low pass filter > sans amp to desk and back to loop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xgsjx Posted May 26, 2013 Share Posted May 26, 2013 My only suggestion, try this...

Jag_Bassist Posted May 26, 2013 Author Share Posted May 26, 2013 I could do but I thought it would spun best putting the compressor first in chain and it stop the problem of the drive on the moog being a problem as I have to put the drive up loads to make it load enough but then my dry sound is distorted. I should really get it in a looper in my board Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xgsjx Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 It should sort your drive issue too as the fx loop is usually a lot lower signal strength than what comes from the bass. My MF101's drive is set to @ 10 o'clock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jag_Bassist Posted May 27, 2013 Author Share Posted May 27, 2013 It might be because I'm using a him bucker. The output is really hot. The drive has to be as low as it can other wise the drive goes red and my dry sound is distorted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xgsjx Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 Ahh, I took your problem being the opposite way round! What about turning the volume on the bass down a bit to suit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pantherairsoft Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 Thing is the Moog is supposed to add drive. It 'can' clean up, but its analogue phat-ness is part of its design. It will always mess with your clean tone when in use (put it in a bypass loop when not in use!). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
