El Grande + BDI21 =

Thunderscreech · #1 09-09-2008, 01:59 PM

Well...all i can say is amazing. If this is what is sounds like thru a behringer, i can't wait for the VT Bass.

I did go a little crazy on the wah, i'll admit.

Sorry for semi-bad audio. Eventually I will be acquiring an XLR cable for this business, but until then...

Played using Squire Vintage Modified Jazz, bridge pickup, through Ampeg BA-115 SP

BDI21 set to "slap" setting, but with the blend about 2 oclock and treble about 5 oclock.
El Grande was set to "Super Fuzz" (volume 10:30, Tone 2 oclock, and Fuzz 3 oclock. Deep Switch On.)

If you haven't already, try running it Wah> Fuzz> DI. I get much better results with Fuzz> Sansamp than I do Sansamp> Fuzz.

It looks backwards in the video, due to my mac's webcam's epic fail at reversing video. It's run Fuzz > Wah > DI. Probably should note that on youtube vid...

Fair enough.

Plus, my Fuzz does not behave well after that wah for some reason

Well, the point of that alignment was because as I saw it, it ran BDI21> Wah> Fuzz, so I assumed you liked the Wah> Fuzz sound. I was really only commenting about the relationship between the Fuzz and the DI.

the Fuzz is first. DI second.

the WebCam fails at reversing stuff.

What I'd really like is a Fuzz > Wah > Fuzz > DI. doesn't Rocktron make a wah pedal that is good with distortion?
