The Sushi Box FX Secret Society

So to speed up my recording process, instead of creating separate files in my DAW for each pedal or each setting I just kept them all in the same file and created separate tracks, so I have 48 recordings in one file, all lined up with each other. Fun fact, if you listen to every single preamp I make played at the same time, it sounds like complete garbage.

is there an SBVT clip posted yet?
I haven't posted any of the new ones yet, but they're all recorded, I'm in the process of exporting them now. I'll get them all organized and uploaded and get them on the site sometime today.

I’ve been told if you listen to what comes from my bass amp it sounds like garbage. Do you think it’s a pedal? Some other brand?

Alright everything is exported and is in the process of being uploaded. Now it's just down to finding the motivation to label them and get them posted on the website. @Sonicblaze you busy? :P Between the clean tone and all the settings of all the pedals there are a total of 49 demos for bass.
 
Alright, these will make it to the website eventually (tonight maybe?), but here they all are, sorted alphabetically by pedal name. They were all recorded on my SR500 with Bartolini mk1 pickups recorded onto a looper, played directly from looper into the preamp into my Two Notes CAB M+ straight into the interface. No external EQ or effects were added, but I did volume level everything post recording.

Surprise! I actually kinda like the Black Eye clips! Making me re-think ordering one to do double duty on guitar and bass rigs. :)
 
That BED sounds excellent on bass.
My kinda grit.

Yeah I was pleasantly surprised by it, Black Eye is my #1 all-time favorite pedal on guitar, and now I'm very impressed by how good it sounds on bass.
 
How much tone shaping is being provided by the CAB-M on these demos? I am sorely lacking any kind of speaker sim, considering how much DI recording work I do.
A fair question, I was using the CAB M's power amp emulator and speaker sim. I don't have a clip of the bass straight into the console without the CAB M to compare it to, but the Clean track is just the bass into the CAB M with nothing in between, so you can use that point as a reference.

I wish my wife would let me buy her jewelry, she refuses to let me spend money on her, which makes it harder to justify spending it on myself :p

Be careful. My wife is like that. But she doesn't care what I spend money on as long as everything is taken care of.

But,,,after 5 years of letting me buy basses and amps and hundreds of pedals, she finally sprung her trap.

She wants a Cottage. Since she has never asked for anything in 13 years I should sure. Figuring it was a phase. Nope. We put an offer in on some land that costs more than our freakin house.

Be careful. Be very careful. :)
