tom Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Hi bass folks i want your oppinion about this strom box worth it for a buy ?? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ratman Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 I had one for a while. There's no point in me saying it was brilliant, or crap, as that's just my opinion. Yours will differ. What I will say is this, it doesn't have much variation of available sounds. But that is a common problem with most 2 knob filters. Have a look at the MXR M82, that's more versatile, and cheaper. Or if you've got lots of spare cash, the WMD Super Fatman. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AntLockyer Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 there is a cheap BassIQ on ebay at the moment. I was thinking about it but I really want the MXR. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dannybuoy Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 If you want versatility, the Source Audio Manta and Sonuus Wahoo are right up there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alanday1975 Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 i have a EBS BassIQ, love it......really funky sound. as some people have said it isn't massively flexible but if your just after an easy to use, funky quack sound pedal then definately worth the money!

tom Posted April 27, 2014 Author Share Posted April 27, 2014 Hi Folks Any comments about ebs stanley clarke wah pedal vs ebs bassiq??? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phagor Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 I would do octave -> envelope -> compressor. This will stop the "bwaps" from the filter getting too loud. You could also try the compressor before the filter - this will make the filter dynamic response more even, sounding the same for loud and quiet notes. Some players like that. For me, the dynamics are what makes an envelope filter cool. I like the Bass IQ, and still use it occasionally - it's a nice, smooth sounding filter. The problem I have with it is getting the Threshold knob set right - depending on your bass, the sweet spot is really small. On my pedal board I have two envelope filters with lots more control over the filter - a Three Leaf Groove Regulator 2 and an Iron Ether Xerograph Deluxe.

tom Posted April 27, 2014 Author Share Posted April 27, 2014 Thanks very much for your answer !! what are your opinion about the stanley wah pedal ??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phagor Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 Sorry, I haven't tried the Stanley Wah. Looks cool - has different filter modes etc. But it isn't an envelope filter, and a wah does sound different. You might get close depending on how quick your ankle is! Maybe try them both out somewhere? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RhysP Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Where are you? I've got a bassiq sitting around doing nothing - if your close to Cardiff you're welcome to borrow it & see what you think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
