Sunday morning, depping for another church. My rig into the MB... I have to admit to not being a fan of MB, but it's cool....

I actually normally have my Markbass Compressore always on, but I've been dealing with noise, and cut down to bare minimum for this Sunday. Turned out it was the jack on the new wiring harness I had put in Monday. I swapped it back to original, but the original tone pot isn't functioning, so I think I was basically bypassing the tone pot, but without the noise. I've had the tube go out on the Compressore, and thought it might be that, but it was just the jack on the new wiring harness. But yeah, I've had an F500 in the past, Markbass stuff is pretty decent, as long as you don't have to have any repairs besides the typical tube changes, etc.

Loving the official bass board. I used the avalanche run for some auto swell and delays. It’s an excellent pedal to use in real time unlike something like a timeline where the physical place of the knob doesn’t necessarily reflect where the control is according to the software.

Played “walls” “to worship you I live” “take courage” “spirit move”

The supersymmetry comp made my low B string notes super thick on “take courage”. Still trying to figure it out but this week was better then last weeks settings with the blend at noon. I had the blend nearly full out but a low ratio and not a ton of reduction. I was using a medium release that was making held notes bloom nicely. Good times.
 
As of right now I’m going bass>spectra comp>vp>bass fuzz deluxe(selling)>aftershock>Vt bass DI>amp/foh.

What should be my next purchase for worship?
Depending on what you are after tonally and what kind of a vibe you're after, a gentle chorus is a win for getting a fretless vibe. But it's really all about what you want to achieve with tonal sculpting. I've stripped down from a huge board (for a bassist) to just 2 effects (the delay on my board is always on). The Slow Motion might not be a permanent thing. In all honesty, as much as I am a fan of effects, in P&W, not everything works.
Chorus, delay, flanger, drive.... They all can work.

Yeah I’m really looking into the Walrus Julia or Decent for my next purchase.

So, updated board...
Peterson out and BOSS TU-2 in.
Added the Behringer Slow Motion.... want it for a little "bowed" action if possible. Got it for next to nothing, so nothing ventured....View attachment 2803083
So, just a quick update...
The Slow Motion works pretty well as a volume swell tool. No fancy fretless mwah here, just really clean swells, which works perfectly for those long note worship songs. Not bad for (at today's exchange rate) a $17.56 purchase.
