    Ibanez Ergonomic Headless Bass (EHB) club

    I have my main tone set mainly between the passive mode and just change between the pickups. Then I have the active side set heavily mid forward for the occasional moment as a kind of solo preset I can easily switch on without the need to be near my pedalboard.

    Ibanez Ergonomic Headless Bass (EHB) club

    I saw someone glue a tiny magnet to the backside of the d'addario micro clip on tuner and that was working well with the magnet holding to the backside of the neck where the strings are attached. I've been thinking of trying this but my micro clip on is working well enough on the bridge side so...

    Show me your compact pedalboard setup

    This is from the gig last night. Does nearly everything for me. Planning on replacing the tuner and chorus with a plethora x3 at some point but I will surely miss the easy access to daisychain power for the wireless from the tu-3. Pedaltrain nano, powered by cioks 4 and will happily run a full...

    ms-60b vs. ms-70cdr

    I have a small pedalboard with core sounds produced with SA C4 and the Ultrawave. This provides me with compression, eq, dirt, octaves, filters and synth sounds. These sounds create 95% of the sounds I use. The last 5% in couple of bands there are a few songs that also require some modulation. I...

    Source Audio UltraWave ~ Catch the Wave

    The ultrawave is awesome and it has become the heart of my rig, no matter what bass or amp I'm using. Always on, just little adjustments here and there when needed, presets for different bands/projects. Comp/dirt/eq. That and a tuner is 95% of every gig I do. Is it possible, or could it be...

    Source Audio Sorcerers Society (S.A.S.S) Part 3

    It depends on your tuner, but my board is currently TU-3, Ultrawave, C4. The Ultrawave is always on with compressor as a core tone, but i run the parallel out from the tuner to the second in on the C4 just to to trigger the filters before the compressor but still use the compressed sound.

    When should compact become a multieffect?

    It does seem like a complete setup with those three pedals. The Ultrawave truly is amazing and I could easily do 95% of what I do using only that (just add the envelope filter for those key moments). With that in mind I do believe I could do without midi and maybe use the two presets with...

    When should compact become a multieffect?

    After fiddling with effects for several years, I've pretty much figured what I like and where to utilise those sounds. I've been looking for a compact setup to fit in my gig bag now and I'm pretty convinced that a full rig with Source Audio Ultrawave (overdrive at the beginning with a gentle...

    Set List, Show, or just 'Wing it?"

    We have two setlists arranged in the 2-3 song groups. All aimed at 5-10 seconds of silence between songs, preferably less. We also have a similar song or another song by the same artist for about 80% of every song in the setlist. This gives us wiggle room to read the room ("Do yo guys want...

    Any others out there using more than one compressor?

    A compressor with enough leds for good metering is what has sold me to using two. I feel like I always want a compressor somewhere near the start of the chain. But after seeing how much more the limiting compressor at the end needs to do work with my settings on other pedals (that pesky envelope...

    Any others out there using more than one compressor?

    I have the Ultrawave first in line and a limiting compressor at the end. Ultrawave does most, sometimes all the things I need. Limiting happens after envelope filters and other rough stuff.

    "Best" Preamp around ? ReVolt ? Darglass Vintage ? Else ?

    Just some good examples of darkglass clean/semi-clean tones.

    Help me with setting up a pedal board for dynamic playing

    Source audio Ultrawave with expression pedal can be configured exactly like this with the morph function. I'm sure there are other ways, but this was the first that came to my mind. And I believe it would be ideal for this application because you can configure several distortion parameters to...

    Owning one bass.. are those days over?

    I'm not entirely sure what you mean, but I don't think you should let any of the babies go even if they use pacifiers... With basses, I personally have never had/understood the need to have several basses. For 20 years now I have used one bass at any given time, even if I have changed it for a...

    Ibanez Ergonomic Headless Bass (EHB) club

    I played a btb for almost a decade. Sold that to fund srms805 and played that exclusively for a year before I got five minutes with 1005sms in a shop. Apart from the short scale, it almost felt like coming back home and I was instatly comfortable with it. The sr feels so tight compared to the...
