    Octave pedal vs DAW pitch shift

    So I know Google returns some hits for the question, but I found nothing relevant, hear me out. I've been tasked with replicating and recording a few super low electronic/synth songs clearly not made for a bass. You need to play reasonably fast 2 octave arpeggios over 1 or 2 strings cleanly...

    Y'all boost before octave?

    I'm going back to analog octaves after a long time spent with OC-3 and C4. I used OC-2 with guitar ages ago but I don't really remember how it behaved anymore. I got the MXR BOD now. Fender J bass into MXR BOD: This is everything I wanted and expected. Excellent tracking, fat synth tone with...

    Bass Clone UBER volume drop

    Ok, not first time playing the pedal, but now that I have my own that goes into a DAW and headphones. What is this even? RMS and peaks down ~50-60%? Bass and Treble on the pedal both dimed gets the signal to at least recognizable levels, but otherwise this is not usable with significant gain...

    Flamma FS02 Reverb... has a Lo-Cut knob.

    Anybody using this on bass with any success, search doesn't bring up anything. Anything to look out for? That Lo-Cut right on the front is super interesting. Also the Pre-delay knob. This sort of versatility is so rare for small form factor pedals. I was about to purchase a Neunaber Wet before...

    Sounds that MXR Bass Envelope Filter CANNOT make

    Please drop some education on this filter noob. We all love the MXR quack, but the typical comment in any filter thread will go: - But it's a band pass filter. - It can only do one thing, not versatile. I know what an xyz pass filter is, but I don't know how it applies in musical context. I...

    Boss RC 5 (or Yet Another Looper + Drum Machine thread)

    I have a very specific question: Does the RC 5 have serviceable drums? Requirements: - I need drum patterns strictly for practicing at home, no live use at all. - I need something ready to go. I have zero interest in investing time in drum programming, let alone learning how to do the...

    Keeley Bassist owners, any luck with tapping?

    How does the adaptive attack/release time magic work for you when tapping? Long tapping sections often require a slow attack and a very fast release, fine tuning that with something like the MXR M87 makes a huge difference to my sound. The Bassist seems to be doing something entirely different...

    Genre-hopping players, what's your pedalboard strategy?

    I'm talking about you folk that play funk, rock, chiptune, reggae, death metal, and disco songs all within that 1hr practice session. A digital multi-fx with presets for every situation is the obvious approach... but do you folk have any creative & practical setups in the (semi)analog world...

    Bass & Drums duo. What do you play?

    I'm a reasonably experienced guitarist but a novice bass player. I speak music theory fluently, but I can't apply that to bass effectively just yet. I'll be playing with a drummer. There won't be a third piece to this band in the foreseeable future. We both have extreme metal music backgrounds...

    Clean Pre/DI to go with DG X7

    Hi folks! First post, 2 weeks after getting my first bass. I know this is the n'th preamp box thread here, but please go easy on the newbie -- I did my research and couldn't find a good answer to my question. A quick background: 1) Had 4 years of formal classical guitar training with plans to...
