The EHX Bass Micro Synth

[BassBrass]

I have a school friend in Hollyweird that keeps trying to sell some of my stories as screen play ideas so you never know. There is a screen play of the time we "borrowed" a school bus for a bachelor party honky tonkin' road trip. It's in the vein of "Fandango" Oh the things we did to and on that bus, oh my! The book is a work in progress collecting a bunch of stories, most are my own but some are fiction based on other's experiences or things I witnessed first hand, some I never want my mother to hear. She don't ever need to know some of the trouble I almost got into.

My mother would say "you survived by the skin of your teeth". That takes some thinkin about.

She knows a lot of the stories but some I simply don't want her to ever know. She gave me a button "I've survived durn near everything" that is proudly displayed on my main bass's strap. She knows I collect buttons and she had a collection of Texas and US political buttons going back to the elections of 1900 given to a museum.

I absolutely love it. Have had mine for almost 20 years, still a blast to play. It feels like an instrument. It's alive and doesn't restrict expression like so many synth pedals do..

I don't know what this means.

Very often with bass synth pedals, you have to restrict dynamics and play with stops and staccatos, so tracking doesn't have hickups. With the BMS, you can keep subtleties in your playing.

Yes because it is entirely analog, it is manipulating your input sounds into the output sounds via distortion (Octave, Square Wave) or octave division (Sub) so unlike a digital synth pedal it will always track your playing and do so without latency (though the octave down voice does need clear fundamental to not glitch between octaves like all analog suboctavers). I had high hopes the newer MXR Bass Synth would be analog, though it is cool in its own right.
