That one missing pedal.

Sign in to disble this ad
So in youre stockpile of pedals, and preamps and such:

Whats the one pedal, rack piece, or table top piece that you would really like to see for bass, or maybe its already made but you would like to see done differently?

Post early, post often.

It'd be nice if you could combine both of the above, and package it in the size of an Ehx nano.

The things I want are basically studio quality rack boxes in a pedal format:

A dual channel real parametric eq, 3 band with +/- 25 db of boost/cut. The frequencies should be somewhat overlapping and Q adjustable on each band with a shelving option for top and bottom bands. It should take line level or guitar level sigs and be no larger than a typical MXR style pedal. The deluxe version can have a tube gain stage.

A great sounding affordable pedal compressor that has the full range of controls, threshold, ratio, attack, release. It should be able to range into peak limiting, have variable knee, metering, etc. The deluxe version can have a switchable transformer in the output to get that iron sound.

I would like to see a true bypass multi-loop pedal (3 or more), with each individual loop having it's own blend...and a tuner out. If this is already out there...sorry for the post...but I have yet to see one...

Yeah, I know the video, something like that sound, but without detuning, and mabye a little more clarity, explosions in pitch!

I don't know......... I've heard that octavers don't track well, but then neither do synths, mabye I should just hook up a dirtbox or two, and drop a whammy bar into the sub octave range, see what happens.

well try a delay then heavy distorion with alot of bass and little treb. just slide down your strings and it can make a bomb dropping big boom sound.
