Togomi Posted Saturday at 17:27 Posted Saturday at 17:27 Hi, If you have to play in a Skunk Anansie tribute band, you'll think about single pedals or to get a digital multi effects pedalboard? I prefer analog sound to digital, but maybe with single pedals I have more work and cost. It will depend on songs, of course. I will need compressor, chorus, overdrive, fuzz, delay, envelope filter...may a multi foot switch to active more than one pedal at the same time... At this momnent, I've got some pedals: compressor, synth wah, envelope filter, OD and fuzz (Shock Attack), octaver, chorus...not delay, not power supply and not switch controller. And a new HX Stomp. And not experience with effects. Did anybody play SA music and can share his/her experience? Thanks in advance Quote
LukeFRC Posted Saturday at 21:39 Posted Saturday at 21:39 Dunno I’ll leave this here, there seems to be parallel paths which the hx stomp should be able to do 2 Quote
tayste_2000 Posted Sunday at 09:29 Posted Sunday at 09:29 Yeah I’d go multi as doing it with single pedals is a lot of pedals. Huge sound and I love Cass Lewis 1 Quote
Togomi Posted 19 hours ago Author Posted 19 hours ago It's my first time with a digital multi effects processor. Are there presets of Cass effects? Of pedals or full songs? Thanks Quote
tayste_2000 Posted 18 hours ago Posted 18 hours ago I came across this at the weekend. I could spend ages picking out fx here, there’s definitely octaver use, I always felt the EHX Bassballs was a big part of the sound, a big part of the pedalboard was an old Korg G5. With a multi you’re going to have to programme it in, picking out the sounds and effects in use. Other than that it’s well over a grand in various pedals I’d say to get the various textures going on. I found this picture which looks simpler than his older board https://www.facebook.com/OfficialCassLewis/photos/pb.100063918541965.-2207520000/1972539592847681/?type=3&locale=pt_BR But there are definitely a bunch of pedals under the Digitech Synth Wah and the Korg G5. 1 Quote
tayste_2000 Posted 15 hours ago Posted 15 hours ago Rabbit hole now. So if I was doing this with single pedals you need a blend, a fuzz maybe two, a filter, a fuzzy filter like the EHX Bassballs or a synth pedal and I feel like a phaser and I’d run all of that into a fairly gritty Sansamp. There is fuzz all over stuff, I’ve never really known where he uses the G5 but then I’ve never been able to get the swirly squelchy sound of Twisted. Which is always where I hear most of the fx. If I had to do it with a small board I’d grab an EHX Bass Big Muff - the new MXR Bass Synth (with a switch for the presets) or a Digitech bass synth wah (depending on budget) - MXR Phase 95 - Sansamp. Big board (no budget) I’d have a split going into a boss or source audio programmable eq pedal into a sansamp or the qstrip for clean and a ehx pog - digitech drop - jhs crimson or a wren and cuff box of war - jhs bender - digitech bass synth wah - digitech synth wah - mxr bass synth - analogman mini chorus - into a gritty sansamp then blend them back together and run that into a Neve DI or your choice of clean di box. I’d probably use the gigrig wetter box and have the expression pedal for controlling the blend. I’d also likely shove my Subdecay Noise Theory and a Mojohand 442 or Dod 440 in there. Grab a Stingray, that would do me and be hella fun to play. If I was doing it with a multi, I could cop the tones with a Zoom MS60b+ (it has a g5 emulation in it) but wouldn’t give me the switching I’d need live so I’d be on the HX Stomp or Anagram. I could probably do most of it with the MXR Bass Synth from what I’ve seen. I’m enjoying this thread too much. 1 Quote
dave_bass5 Posted 4 hours ago Posted 4 hours ago One thing to consider with effects, is the correct order to get the tone you want. It's not always obvious what goes first etc, even if you know what effects are used. In this case something like the HX Strop is a lot easier to swap the order of the separate effects than a wired pedal board. Personally id try and do it all in the Stomp first. Quote
