madiskubu Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 (edited) Up for SALE or TRADE a truly unique instrument. A jazz bass combined with a fully functional midi controller. Pics: [url="https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/11922307/Industrial%20radio%20midi%20bass.jpg"]https://dl.dropboxus...midi%20bass.jpg[/url] This is not a midi signal which is created from piezo or pickup signal. It has sensors under every fret position which results in latency free midi signal.

Body is alder and neck maple/rosewood. Pickups are Nordstrand singlecoils. Painted surf green. The bass sounds really great! This bass has endless possibilities midi configuration wise.

Kiwi Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 Steve Chick let me demo a couple of these basses while I was in Sydney in early March. They are unlike any other MIDI bass on the market in terms of what they can sense and do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madiskubu Posted October 3, 2013 Author Share Posted October 3, 2013 Kiwi, you have written a nice overview of the midi bass, I'd post it here. http://basschat.co.uk/topic/202620-industrial-radio-pro-4-midi-bass-by-steve-chick/page__p__2067006__hl__industrial%20radio__fromsearch__1#entry2067006 And you are right that the midi system is very sensitive (jet very adjustable), it forces you to play cleaner to make it sound good, but in the end its good - you will be better player on bass. For me it opened up another level of sensing what I'm doing on the bass guitar. I ran the midi signal from the bass through Moog little phatty for synth bass sounds followed by DSI tetra for arpeggiators + regular bass sound through Mesa. It was MASSIVE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roland Rock Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 When I watched Men Imitating Machines I'm pretty sure the bass player was using one of these. Great looking and amazing sounds. Good luck with the sale Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this was a 5 string, I would have bitten your arm off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
