Thought it could be interesting to get a feel for what fx pedals the BC collective are regularly using live that give us our signature sounds with our bands.

If there's a particular pedal that is the heart of your sound and you couldn't manage without do let us know.

If you have any clips of you making use of particular fx live, even better - please feel free to share!

 

Feel free to tick more than one fx category if you're using regularly i.e. at some point on every gig (I'd just suggest omitting anything that only gets sporadic / occasional use).

Where were compressors, EQs, and reverbs? A hint of reverb to OD/dist/fuzz sounds even better. 

 

Several compressors, most popular are tce HyperGravity, and Daring Audio's Phat Beam for fretless 

5 band parametric Ibanez EQ to tame rooms, and a HPF 

Iron Ether Nimbus reverb

I've always been quite minimal: I had an overdrive for solos, and a fuzz for the odd song that needed it. The "signature sound," such as it was, was a Gibson-style bass into a valve head.

 

And since you asked for clips - this one features the OD (Ibanez Bass Tubescreamer - skip to 1.55 for the bass solo):

...and this one features the fuzz (EHX Bass Big Muff):
