skidder652003 Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 Hello fellow BC'ers! So my lad wants to play some royal blood toons and is after an approximation of the sound. Im sure this has been discussed before, but can anyone recommend a cheap clone type pedal to at least give a feel for it, Im guessing a pitchshifter fuzz type thing like the POG but a lot cheaper! He's got a pretty decent distortion on his amp so something to add to it would be great! Thanks guys n gals! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cato Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 (edited) I believe it starts with an octave pedal/pitch shifter, after that it gets very complicated and very expensive very quickly (he splits his signal into high and low octaves and runs each one through a seperate pedal board leading to different rigs), but as a basic imitation an octave and a distortion unit should get you on the right track.

Mykesbass Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 Unless Joyo or Mooer have come up with something in the last couple of years I'm pretty sure you will struggle with a cheap Pog clone. Loads of octave pedals but very few that do the octave up. Plenty of cheap distortions though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Japhet Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 I've got a Behringer octave pedal that works fine. PM me your address and you can have it for free if you want it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thunderbird Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 Would this do nothing to do with me but the seller used it for Royal Blood stuff http://basschat.co.uk/topic/294670-behringer-us600/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YeastieB Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 Randomly came across this: [size=4]Sound Like Royal Blood - Without Busting The Bank [/size] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I2tNAXPczMk of course depends on the what's in the bank. The simpliest set-up looks like line-splitter with the octave up pitchshifter going into a small guitar combo and bass with amp distortion.

Great if it does, but shows how poor my research was a couple of years ago :0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't watch it - you'll get addicted and end up watching all of them! Eventually you'll end up thinking you need to buy hundreds of pedals.

redbandit599 Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 I got a Mooer Tender October from EBay - via China about £60. Does the octave up and down plus level of the dry signal. Octave up sounds 'different ' in that it's a bit artificial- kind of think they all do a bit. Don't think you can get them in the UK. Might help though it doesn't have wet and dry outputs so you might need some other way of blending it in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
