Would be much easier if people would quit recording stuff with synth bass
Even easier for us if they stopped recording bass altogether.Would be much easier if people would quit recording stuff with synth bass
Digital octave tends to be cleaner than analog. I currently run a Trex Quint and it's very very clean, almost unnaturally so. Not expensive anymore, either. See if you can find one to try out!Any suggestions on a good octave that stays clean? Currently using the bassoctave model on the hx effects. Basically an oc2 clone and while it does a good octave and tracks well it's a bit dirty. Pretty much nails my king forever but would like something clean as well
Over the last few years I've moved back and forth between digital and analog pedals and this seems to be giving me the best of both worlds. It has the flexibility to go hybrid between bass and acoustic without having extra pedals. The external tuner is fed from the volume pedal to free up a switch on the Stomp.
A big shout out to the Temple Audio guys for bringing some well made and thought out boards to the market. I'm loving it right now! I know it's not the cheapest pedalboard system but it there is something to be said for having a board that is clean, space efficient, pedals don't move in transit and can handle your power supply and inputs.

How do you like the Berg?
That's a such a wonderful tuner, what is it?

Depends on your price range. An Aguilar Tone Hammer DI, Mesa Subway DI, or Sansamp BDDI are great options that won't break the bank. If cost isn't a factor, I'd start looking at some of the high-end tube pre/DI's. I really like my Arkham Oracle.Good morning all: I'm needing to buy a preamp pedal. Church just went ampless, my beloved Epifani cab & GK Legacy 800 came home last week. I originally though the GK Plex since I do love their amps, but after watching a Sweetwater video review & this guy cycling through a couple dozen modes by pressing the knobs, thought of trying to remember all of that turned me off.
I would like to keep this simple as possible. Cab sim sounds like this would be good thing to have. My initial thoughts are Microtubes B7K Ultra V2 or the Two Notes Revolt.
The B7K seems to get lots of love around here & the Revolt is fairly new on the scene.
Thoughts ?
Darkglass gets a lot of love on TB, I don't see it too much on Worship Boards, except for VMT. As stated earlier, "budget options" (if there really is such a thing) Tonehammer, Sansamp BDDI are pretty good bets to get that worship sound. If you have a particular tone you are going for then it opens up more possibilities and of course the budget. Arkham Oracle is a great option, digital stuff like HX Stomp if you want to go that route. Origin Effects recently (in the last year I think) put out a couple of pre-amp pedals that get great reviews too. Are you going to need a compressor too? Do you have any other pedals already? I spent a lot of time chasing an IEM tone that I was happy with.Good morning all: I'm needing to buy a preamp pedal.

I've never noticed an issue with mine.Do the newer tone hammers still have the heating up and sounding bad issues?
Thanks - watching the video on Sweetwater about the GK plex this morning helped me rule it out!I like to recommend to folks asking about pedals to just watch a ton of comparison videos - find what you like and develop your own tone.
