    New bass microsynth problems

    Thanks for the help guys. The second trimpot for gate control is actually a myth (I read an email from EHX about that). There is only the input gain adjustment. Jonathan1990: yes, other pedals are daisy chaned on the onespot, but I tested the unit by itself as well and no difference in...

    New bass microsynth problems

    I tried to post an update last night but my browser kept crashing. I should have clarified. I have the new, XO version. I had missed in the manual where it talks about the trimpot for input gain. It was set extremely low. I fixed that. I am still having the sustain problem, but it's...

    New bass microsynth problems

    I purchased a used EHX BMS and received it today. I've been excited to try it out, but I'm having some serious problems even getting it to work. I wanted to see if you all thought it's a bad unit, or if I'm just missing something obvious. The unit did not come with a power supply (though...

    Galaxy AS-1100 4 band pack

    Thanks my friend. It's been reliable? Anyone else know much about them? Also, is there a cheap earbud everyone recommends?

    Galaxy AS-1100 4 band pack

    I searched but couldn't find much information on the Galaxy in-ear monitor AS-1100s. Does anyone here have any experience with them? Galaxy AS-1100-4 (Back Pack (1 Tx, 4 Rx)) | Sweetwater.com IEM's might be more than we need, but when we're looking at powered monitors for our stage, we...

    EHX Micro Pog Pops when turned on or off

    Thanks guys for all the support. That's why I love this place. I put the pedal in the chain where I had wanted it to begin with - 2nd in line, immediately following my compressor, and just before the distortion pedal. No audible pops. As quiet as I imagined it should be. I am glad I...

    EHX Micro Pog Pops when turned on or off

    Well, just discovered that if I plug in direct to the pedal and run it direct to the amp, I get no popping. It's quiet and as awesome as I imagined Previously I had it just after the distortion pedal (Boss OBD3). What about that chaining is causing it to pop?

    EHX Micro Pog Pops when turned on or off

    That's the million dollar question. I guess that and 'do they all do this.' It came from GC, so I have 30 days (about 20 now) to return it. But if another one is going to do the same, I'll not mess with trying another. I've read of mods which add a resistor between the input side and...

    EHX Micro Pog Pops when turned on or off

    OK. I'll try rearranging the order and see what happens. So, I should consider this an inherent flaw of this pedal? Or, should I send it back and try another?

    EHX Micro Pog Pops when turned on or off

    Really? So, it's something I have to live with? There is no fixing it? None of my other pedals do it (Boss OBD3, Carl Martin Opto compressor, crybaby bass wah). I guess they're not true bypass? Kinda sucks. I won't be able to turn it off and on mid-song like this.

    EHX Micro Pog Pops when turned on or off

    My lovely wife picked me up a used EHX micro pog for me for xmas (best wife ever). I just got a moment to try it out. Pretty friggin cool (not sure yet how much I'll get to used it, but it's a fun effect). Anyway, this thing pops LOUDLY when turned on or off. I can't imagine this being...

    Talking Heads "Wild Wild Life" bridge

    Yes, it is a sexy bassline. Gotta love Tina Weymouth! Thanks a lot for the tab! I appreciate you working on it. It's pretty close to what I played, except that I hear 7-6-5-4 instead of 7-6-4 for the chorus as it walks down before the E and I don't hear the bridge like you do. Probably...

    Talking Heads "Wild Wild Life" bridge

    Hey all. I was wondering if someone could help me figure out the bridge to Wild Wild Life. I'm pretty sure it starts with a 1-4-5: F-A#-C but I can't quite get what happens after that. I think I hear a D in there. Something like D-C-D, but my guitar friend thinks there's a G in there that...

    Problems recording bass

    Are you opposed to getting a small mixer? To me it seems to be the cheapest and easiest solution.

    Natural Wood Fender Options

    Thanks, guys. I'll watch the vids when I get home tonight. So, it seems this is a pretty popular "introductory" bass. I've read some reviews from people who've played MIM or MIA Fenders and say this is almost as good? I shoulda picked this up instead of my Ibanez SR300. Anyone see a...
