This might be enough for a while...

Turns out it wasn't enough... I've got a Dr. Scientist Tremolessence and a Pedal Train 2 on the way.




...and here it is.

Ugh I really want to try a tremolessence... Let us know what you think. I'm thinking about moving up to a PT3 at some point. I have to watch my pennies right now but I think I'll have some things worked out soon.

Dirt anyone? Starting a second pedal board with, for now, a Shin EI FY-2, Source audio bass envelope filter, Boss Bass Synth, and a Russian Big Muff.

Lots of sweet boards to start this thread! You guys are rockin some sweet gear! I see a lot of familiar pedals too!

Here's my latest board, +Submarine, -BDDI. It should stay like this for a while. I don't need much more, though I'll most probably get an Elements when GAS finally wins me over. That brown/beige gears graphic looks awesome. Plus, rumors are it sounds good... I'd like a 2-channel blender sometimes too..

How does the Monarch work on bass? Do you have any clips of it?

My favorite overdrive, but may not work for everyone. Not much low end loss.

There are a couple soundbites that I posted in this thread that use the Monarch. http://www.talkbass.com/forum/f36/little-game-dirt-869571/

I don't have soundbites (getting some home recording gear next week..) but I can tell you that I'm loving the Monarch. When I first looked into it, I heard about people blending it with their clean signal but found I didn't need too as it doesn't seem to lose low end much, if at all.

I started out using it as an always-on lite overdrive but I've found that I like it just as much, if not more, with the gain cranked up. The fact that it can do from little grit to really dirty is what I like the most about it. I got it to replace a Blackout Mantra, which was only good at high gain and lost low end a bit..

Not much of a change... finally getting rid of the Bassballs and rethunk the chain:

First page...YES!

I love this thread because I look at my board and go ah yes my gas is gone for now then I see this board and I say I HAVE NOTHING. NOOOOOOOTHING.

Are you happy with the LPB1s or the Mole?

 

[BassIsFun17]

i've been trading the mxr bass fuzz deluxe and the bass big muff out. i just did a string of shows with the mxr, so now im gonna do another string of shows with the muff and figure out what i really like the most.

 

[sillyfabe]

nice boards all around!
@bassisfun: how's that Boss PH-1R? Its on a list of pedals I've always wanted to try...
@mattdean: digging the pedal(board)

 

[BassIsFun17]

@bassisfun: how's that Boss PH-1R?

i really like like it, there is a special character to it that i like. granted it is also only the 3rd phaser i've ever had/used. the only other phasers i've tried is the mxr phase 90, and the maxon phase tone. either way, i really like the adjustability of this phaser, and i think it works really well on bass. its a neat pedal for sure.

 

[sillyfabe]

I can dig that! if you have a way to post some soundclips that would kill (please). I'm set on phasers (with one powerful little beast) but still would love to hear it.

Latest incarnation here. Starting to find the big flat Warwick Rockcase board a bit annoying and untidy at times and I'm having to get more and more creative with cables and power. At this stage, the Burkey powers everything - including the Rusty Box and Valvedrive. The one thing about a flat, static board is that I have very few issues with settings or cables getting bumped. It just a shame that it always looks like a science experiment!

Chain is -

Strobostomp -> Roadrage Looper -> Rusty Box (Loop 1) -> EBS Valvedrive (Loop 2) -> Dwarfcraft Baby Thundaa + Fuzzrocious Rat Tail (Loop 3) -> Fuzzrocious BDPG (Loop 4) -> Pog 2 + Infanem Faye Sing (Loop 5) -> TC Flashback + Xerograph Deluxe (Loop 6)

just restuffed everything on my board, the results are below

bass > micro pog> jhs low drive> jhs four wheel> fuzzrocious pink stache> ehx graphic fuzz> jhs pandamonium> jhs lime aid> polytune mini> amp

I haven't posted in a while. Still keeping it simple with a PT Nano and One Spot. This board covers all of my bass and guitar needs when playing live.

Deltalab tubescreamer clone > MXR Dyna Comp > Line 6 Echo Park > Boss RV-5

The Dyna Comp and Deltalab TS were both subjected to home painting experiments.

Love that board man!
