Rich Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 I do hope Shep pokes his head round the door here. Would be great to hear from him again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shep/Panther and Si are two of our super-gurus on all things effects (as well as lot of other stuff). As Rich said, Shep seems to have gone very quiet in the last few years.

dmccombe7 Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 Yes i can remember seeing him a lot on here. Did he not go down the route of solo bass shows ? Pretty sure i watched some of his VID clips on here Dave 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al Krow Posted January 30, 2020 Share Posted January 30, 2020 (edited) Mesa M6 with its "pull deep" A cab that can deliver a meaty low end eg Fearless F112. (Or in place of the above a Markbass AC 121 Lite combo with its extended speaker excursion specifically for it to handle meaty lows and ability to deliver its full 500W load through its solo cab). A decent sub woofer with cross over for the PA. DOD Meatbox pedal. How much more sonic sludge could one person ever wish for? Job done!

krispn Posted January 30, 2020 Share Posted January 30, 2020 I’ve enjoyed experimenting in the past with a 115 and 410 but running the lows into the 410’s to keep them ‘tight’ and running the highs to the 115 to soften the highs. My old Eden power amp has a tone control on each channel as well so I could further monkey with the tone going to each cab. Might be counter intuitive to your needs if you’re after big subby lows but if you have access to the gear worth an experiment. In my old practice room we had heaps of speakers to try our- I actually shared it with a fellow bc’er! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Posted January 30, 2020 Share Posted January 30, 2020 Bass-wise, you could do a lot worse than this: String it BEAD and destroy everything in your path 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frank Blank Posted April 19, 2020 Author Share Posted April 19, 2020 I still hadn’t made up my mind about what to for this new project but the lockdown has taken the rush off the decision. Having said that, I think, as an FRFR convert I’m going to invest in a second K12.2, my duo partner can use the other one and I can have two running with the new band, more for a pose than anything else.

pantherairsoft Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 Ok, I’m mega late to this party... first time I’ve logged in here for about a year, but.. I’m Shep and I’m still alive. My old blog was closed down when I stopped playing bass as much (I got a record deal ‘producing’ for an electronic act - WRISTS) but Si offered to host all the interviews I’d done so everyone could still read them - hence the Shep/Si connection. My old ‘band’ was Our Helical Mind - google it and you’ll find stuff on Bandcamp and Spotify. We were 2 guys using drums and a bass to make analogue drum & bass. It was fun, but we kinda peaked at what we could do with just 2 of us around the release of ‘Synthetiks’ and figured that Nerve had the 3-piece market already covered, so we called it a day. The pedalboard was a 2-man lift. It was insane. As was the tap dancing. Thanks for remembering me though. Makes me feel all important! Sorry it took me 9 months to reply! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The model in the Helix sounds very good. I've never played a real one, but when comparing recordings it seems close enough. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Welcome back matey oh how I remember your awesome pedalboard. Amazing otherworldly sounds from your (Roscoe IIRC?) bass. You're still on youtube too! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’re in the odd position that neither of us seem to be admins on the Facebook page anymore and the email address associated with Bamdcamp, YouTube and Spotify no longer exists... so material is out there, but we don’t really have control of it anymore! Ha. So yeah, enjoy what’s out there! Synthetiks - prob the best track we made. Utter b@@@h to play live. Soooooo many pedals active at once in multiple parallel loops. In the interest of the amplification question in this thread, that was an EBS Fafner into a Barefaced Big Twin T, though I did go smaller further down the line and found stuff that could still cope with the sub lows. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xgsjx Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 Good to hear from you Shep. It’s been a while. I know how irritating it can be to lose stuff to the internet. Where it’s there, but you can’t do anything with it. Hope you’re keeping well & still play bass. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmccombe7 Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 If you know the old email address can you still access the account and change the ownership details ? I'm just guessing with that as never had to do it. I know my old aol email address i can access old items even tho i changed address at least 8 yrs ago.

It just won’t give us access. Not that we’re super bothered, it is very much an ‘old project’. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
