Hey, I'm looking for the mud effect that plays on the bass in american army movies and games.
Two good examples are Black Hawk Down (When the crap hits the fan) and Modern Warfare 2. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=glast...eature=related
Check at 4:25.
I know there's an octaver in there, that would make it resonate but for the rest, is it just extra low end? Lots of low, lots of mid, no high? |

A Bass Octave Deluxe, Aguilar Octaver, or many others could do this, and I know it would be amazingly simple to do with my Line6 M13 and even control the mix of the octave to real note mix via expression pedal. |

I think it's played on a keyboard with lots of special effects, but since I play bass I'm looking for another way to make this sound.
My amp (Crate 220) has an integrated octaver so maybe I can produce something similar with it. |

If I recall, an Octaver will play the same note that you do but one octave higher right?
So a -1 octaver plays it 1 lower instead? What do you mean by soloed? |
