Blood Drive OVD Direct Recording

Sign in to disble this ad
rather than do my usual recording trick of running the VT Bass pedal in line i thought i'd replace it with the Coffin Case Blood Drive overdrive pedal to give me clunky gain in my tone.

so i did a full song with it. a while back someone asked me if i could review the Blood Drive, and i havent done that yet but i figured putting up the bass and drum tracks might help some people in knowing what to expect from it..

will gladly answer questions.

hey there
it's a jazz bass, both pickups full up into a Guyatone compressor,
into the blood drive, filth:gain control near to zero so that it's less of a fuzz but more of a tone shaper, bleed:tone control at around 1.5 o'clock (retains low end a bit but still has bite imo) and inject:volume control wherever you like i guess.

this into an amp set relitively clean. tube is cool cos you can use the volume on the BD to push it.
i gave it a boost around 100hz also.

Awesome sound sample you got there...I never knew that you can use the coffin case blood drive overdrive pedal on bass. that sounds killer.

thanks guys.
it's not a bass pedal but i bought it thinking it'd be pretty multipurpose.
thanks for the approval Jimmy.
interesting you thought it was a P. now you mention it i see how you mean.
might have slightly more twang than a precision would normaly.
