GazWills Posted November 16, 2013 Share Posted November 16, 2013 soooo, Xmas approaches - time to break out the festive pedalboard lights I've tried a few new drive pedals recently, old and new (storm distortion 10, oxfuzz bass), but I just keep coming back to the BB and the TFR!

lefrash Posted November 17, 2013 Share Posted November 17, 2013 Heres my current setup. It goes like this: Bass > OC3 > Zoom b9.1ut > FX send > Synth wah > mega distortion > zoom 506> FX Return > AMP I have got the FX loop blended with the clean sound from the Zoom, to keep a bassy signal throughout. I set the multi FX as one patch and use the 5 buttons as stomps. 1. envelope filter 2 FX loop on and off 3. pitch bender (+12 and +24 using the Z - pedal) 4: tremelo 5 . tap delay (delay turned off and on by the button above but is also set to blend in with the zpedal). Always on effects are light compression, a SVT amp sim, the EQ, and noise reduction. In my current band I have a couple of other special effect patches but I play 95% of the stuff on this one patch. The zoom 506 I literally use as a stand in Fuzz! Its weird, cos iv tried out alot of fuzzes over the past year and I genuinely prefer the sound of this! The rest of the time its bypassed. It'll definately be leaving the board once I get a Fuzz im happier with. I fancy getting a phaser for the end of the chain too, thats next on the list!

It's a great pedal, I love the EQ section on it, as could never get quite enough low end out of my bassdrive (which otherwise sounds pretty similar)..

Sibob Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 A little board I've out together for a few gigs with Polar Caps [IMG]http://i41.tinypic.com/1z6w86a.jpg[/IMG] Fairly simple and self explanatory: TU-2 -> Boss CS-2 -> Boss OC-2 -> Fuzzrocious BDPG -> SFX Thumpinator Powered by the Gigrig Generator Si Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GazWills Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 Are you using the CS-2 - always on, or for/with certain effects?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GazWills Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 cheers dude - got them pre-wired from this place in the states: [url="http://www.oznium.com/led-ribbon"]http://www.oznium.com/led-ribbon[/url] 12v but they run just fine at 9v, and plug straight into the standard pedal power supply on my diago Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marsy Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 Ha ha! Ah sorry guys no wacky 2 tuner magic.. I've bought the polytune this week and want to A/B my clean tone with the tu2 and against the polytune. Hopefully i'll lose the tu2 for the cute polytuner, providing I don't miss having the boss buffer in the signal.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glassmoon Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 OK - at last, the umpteenth iteration of my pedal board: Carl Martin Compressor > EBS Microbass II Peterson Strobostomp Tuner (through EMB2 tuner out) EMB2 effects loop: EBS Octave > MXR Bass Overdrive Deluxe > MXR Bass Chorus Deluxe > Aguilar Octamiser > MXR Stereo Chorus The MXR Stereo Chorus is always on - very light setting to add shimmer. I have the MXR BCD as a legit chorus. The EBS Octave does the double track, one octave down so well - 2 distinct notes. The Aguilar Octamiser is so damn good at that sub bass, almost dub thing - it is thunderous Now I just need a Pedaltrain 2 and I'm all set Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fuzz into the EP-controlled LPF gives some really lovely synthy sweeps and wobbles. I also use the LPF solo, but it's pretty easy to turn on by itself, I just need to make sure I have narrow shoes on :-D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigBassBob Posted November 29, 2013 Share Posted November 29, 2013 Some excellent boards being posted, as per usual I've been waiting on a Subterranea for a few months now.
