LOL!

I just read this thread (why you may ask... good question!), anyway I just noticed that kaputsport posted that he would be producing a clip of Hysteria in Sept 2009... then posted the clip in June 2010 and then complains that nobody cares in Feb 2011.

Funniest thing I've read in a long time on TB!

My band used to do a cover of this and I got right on his tone with a BBM into a Punes&Custard pedal. The rig was, and still is, a MM Stingray into a Mesa Walkabout with a Aphex 651 Compressor in the effects loop. I have since sold the Prunes&Custard and upgraded the BBM to a Grey Stache but just thought I'd throw that in the mix for anyone interested

Problem is, that while the second video vaguely sounds like it, it is not it.
And when I say vaguely sounds like it, it is the scenario where you see a cover act, and he is using some pedals, and you are not quite sure what he is using, but it is close enough.

Did you listen to the post I made with my tone revealed? I came to this concluded tone after meeting Muse, and having a discussion with Chris. My board has most of the important pieces to reproduce this tone, and I have in no way shape of form ever included the BSW in any song. Most of the speculation surrounding this pedal is what it is used for. Seeing them live, and meeting the band, going over photos, concert footage, and sound clips (I have the hysteria solo tracks) shows nothing that the BSW is capable of doing, with the exception of "Sunburn" in the verse, using patch 3.

Here is my rig.

Signal path is as follows:

Pedulla Rapture RB4 Single Pick Up
Status JJ Headless

Into> Boss LS-2...

Chain A: Boss OC2>Human Gear Animato>HBE Hematoma> Prunes and Custard >Return
Chain B: Line 6 FM4>Deep Impact>Big Muff>BSW> Return

LS-2 out intoPeterson Strobostomp
From the peterson into an Electrix MoFX, into an Electrix Filter Factory into Marshall DBS 7400 > 4x10 and 1x15.

To create my tone, I used a 4 way recorded chain. Direct box split into Motu 828 MKII for clean, and output into pedal board. Through the board using the Animato in chain A and Muff in chain B, mic'ed the 4x10 cab at the lower left.

His recorded rig for Absolution was quite large, larger than mine and involved 4 heads, 4 cabs, multiple mic's direct ins and a vast array of pedals.

The synth track IS a Roland JP8000 Synth played by Matt Bellamy. Live, they play to a synth backing track and a click track. Wanna know how I know this? I have a recording of the in ear monitor mix that was recorded from a scanner on the UHF band they use.

No all synth pedals are the same. I had a very convincing Hysteria tone with the Deep Impact. I thought I was on the right track, but something was never right. Same with the videos posted by you. Convincing, but not right. You could be fooled to thinking it was correct without a point of reference, but I know better.

Part of my experiment entailed using Chris in the left ear, and me in the right while tweeking to make sure it was as close as you will ever be able to get live. I can say without a shadow of a doubt, that my tone is far more accurate than these youtube videos.

I am not getting "all stuck up" about it. I was mearly sharing my experience in getting exactly the tone that was requested, and furthering the Talkbass communities knowledge base with the most accurate information.

When I said put up of shut up, I was joking around. Posting your tones and settings helps everyone, but you are not able to be bothered, so I commented on the two videos you posted, which IMHO are close, but no cigar.

I read that he uses a russian and US big muff and a wooly mammoth as his fuzzes... he also has bajillions of dollars of gear.

No USA muff. three Russian muffs, 2 Human gear animatos, a Wooly Mammoth, a prunes and custard, Akai Deep Impact, Line 6 FM4, EHX Micro Q Tron and EHX Octave Multiplexor (x2) with 2 rack mount pods, an Electrix Filter Factory

reubmister said:
he also says in an interview he uses the animato distortion by human gear they are super rare though

Yea, the Animato is his distortion that he blends with a Muff and clean for his standard distortion tone. 3 amps and 3 cabs running at the same time, each with loops for effects. At anytime, he can have all three with three different effects running.

It is the RB-4. They are still in production. I own two (have had three others before).

Chris had a red RB4, paint Matte Black by Matt, and the paint wore off. That bass is retired, and he has a candy blue single pickup as seen in the making of the Resistance.

He mostly uses the Jazz basses now, a Status, a Gibson Grabber and his Ric.
