that behringer amp switch pedal will soon be replaced by a peavey one..
What is the metallic grey thing on the bottom left of your board?
I take that as a complimentSean Baumann said:I had to put on some happy music to recover from that
Mine as it currently stands
Still looking at getting a couple more things and maybe changing the mxr for a radial JDI or Pro Di1

its a prototype of mine, its simply a signal join box...its hard to see but theres a black patch lead from the behringer going to it as well...its just folded mild steel that one, but im going to mill out a box from tool steel this week hopefully and add some volume or a blend controlsteak'n'roll said:
@ tayste :
Nice board!
How does the Maxon phaser treat you?
Did you compare it with other devices?

Damnit, I missed like 10 pages at this thread due to not reciving any emails... GAH!!! So yeah, the board has changed a bit again...
As for previous questions that I missed...
The moog is gone because of the terrible bypass (I will get a new one with TB soon)
The Reverb I use is a custom Vanamps Reverbamate, I had the guys at Vanamps make it with a bigger tank - for more decay.
I still have no idea what I am doing with basssss at the moment...

I only got it today, so far I'm very happy I've not been to practice yet but at home it sounds nice, quite subtle and smooths the highs but in a really nice way, I'll be using it for acousticy bits in our songs as I've been sorta overusing chorus
but yeah it's very good, bypass is excellent even though it's not true bypass.Built like a tank, everything feels very solid yet the pedal is very light. I've tried a few phasers and use to own the Akai Intelliphase which I quite liked but found it to in your face, I've heard the MXR Phase 90 which this is a clone of (clone of vintage phase 90's that is) and to me it does it better.
Well worth a try
Hope this helps
Right now I am running from left to right:
Boss Delay DD-6, Dunlop Crybaby wah, Boss Flanger, Boss Overdrive, Tech 21 Sansamp, Boss Tuner
I use the delay and the overdrive with the wah when I solo on my riffs, or when I play Anesthesia, I kick the flanger on using the gate position, the delay and the overdrive for my own intro to Anesthesia. Otherwise, the Sansamp is used for some warmer, bassier distortion or tube sounds.

The Analogman Chorus is an amazing unit. While I only have experience with a handful of chorus pedals (bought it after doing research here), it's very lush and warm sounding. A few samples:

Can't recommend it enough, it's one of those "if I lose it, I'll buy another" type things.

Oh thanks a lot nad, really nice playing and good clips!
How much depth did you deal in on these clips if I may ask?
Once again those Mammoth + Analogman Chorus clips sound soooooooooo wicked! Makes we want my Mammoth back!
uly_ said:Hey Tayste,
Nice board!
The chorus is awesome, great tone and very reactive to your playing, you can never go wrong with analogman pedal
Hey thanks! I generally have the depth around 2:00 and the speed around 11:00, and those clips are no different.uly_ said:Oh thanks a lot nad, really nice playing and good clips!

Yeah, it's a killer tone. Makes me wish I had an afro and was back in the 70's! Well, I got the 'fro part at least.Phyrexian said:
I've kinda got impatient waiting for the proper board to arrive, and I figure that geeks are OK, but don't quite do rigs justice, so here's a pic of mine on it's current "board" (a piece of shelving from somewhere...):
The order is: Boss TU-2 -> EHX English Muff'n -> Dunlop Dime Crybaby From Hell (CFH) -> Boss NS-2 -> Tech 21 SansAmp Para Driver DI -> My Stereo (listening/recording w/ tapes
) or My Computer (digital recording)
The only changes from a few days ago are:
1) Added my NS-2 again. The Fuzz/Wah combo was kinda noisy. I just set the Threshold to max and it works fine without the FX in the loop . I now use this as my "mute" and have the tuner set to bypass even when on. As a sidenote, I don't know whether it's the PDDI's cutting off of the hi's but the TU doesn't effect the signal like it did when I had it this way before 
2) Cranked the Low (Bass) knob on the English Muff'n and found that it was just the thing to give my wah/fuzz setup some "girth" and power The settings from my previous post (http://www.talkbass.com/forum/showpost.php?p=2810937&postcount=1657) and the fuzz/wah samples should still give some idea of the sound, except think more bass, and a little thicker (see 4 for that one...). Oh, and there's so much processing (as everything is on all the time...) that turning the bass' tone knob "on" really doesn't do much....
3) Decided, after some recording "tests" that I'm gonna stick to dirty all the time when I just use my PDDI "on its own". Even with the higer distortions blending in with guitars, the bass still pops out with lots of mids/low growl if the guitars concentrate on the hi-mids and highs (getting closer to solo recording
). I've also had to change the settings to "accomadate" my realization that turning the tone knob "on" on the bass isn't such a bad thing. The settings you can see above on the NS and PD are for when I use it "on it's own.
and finally:
4) related to 2/3 but kinda separate: I've found that running the blend at 10/11 o'clock on the PD really thickens up the growl of the dist and brings it all together. Even when I'm useing the fuzz/wah it works well in that position.
Well that's it for my usual "post you pedalboard" thing, including the unnecessary explanation of what I've done :scowl:
I'm acctually very pleased with the PD's tone, and how it really improves the fuzz/wah combo. I've really just been tweeking what I have already for like the last month, and this will be my last post, about me, in this thread for a while (that's how much I love my tone )

)Dude, dude, dude: Use the loop; it's just ingenious, the way that thing works!DarkHarted said:
I can put raging, treble-boosted, hard-compression right into high-gain distorion in that loop - then strum a big-ol chord, and let it completely ring-out to silence; the gate tracks perfectly and the whole, raging, clipped mess just dies-out naturally to silence. Sure can't do that without the loop!
