Your Dream EFFECT Rig

I am working toward mine so soon my dream will become reality!!!

Gibson Echoplex w/foot controller
Boss VF-1 w/foot controller
EH bass MicroSynth
Mu-tron 3+
Digitech Whammy
Line 6 DM-4 Distortion Modeler w/expression pedal

What do you all think?? I think it will be pretty phat once I get it all. Too bad I will have to read all kinds of manuals.

I really just need one or two more effects to make my "dream" rig. Here's how it will look someday:

In a 6 space rack:
Furman PL-8 (I know it's not an effect, but it will be in the rack)
Korg DT1Pro Tuner
Digital Music Corp Guitar Audio Switcher (MIDI controlled channel selection unit, has 8 loops that have many purpose but I use them for switching effects.)
Boss ODB-3 (which may be modified or replaced one day)
MXR Phase 90
Danelectro Dan-Echo
Boss BF-2 Flanger
Digital Music Corp. Ground Control, to control the Guitar Audio Switcher.

That's what I have, what I want is an envelope filter and a synth effect. I don't know if these will be seperate units, or a multi effect that actually has good sounds of both.

Anyway, all my effects will sit in a rack under the Guitar Audio Switcher and the Ground Control pedal tells the Switcher to add/remove loops from the chain. Making everything true bypass in a way.

 

eventide ultra harmonizer is all you need




...or at the very least all i want

 

dbx compressor/gate rackmount
SKB 10 space pedal rack
Pedalracks true bypass
Multipower unit (Godlyke?)
Guyatone BB-2 Pre-Amp/EQ
Morley PVO volume pedal
Morley ABC switch box
Boss TU-2 tuner
Ibanez PD-7 distortion
Ibanez BN-5 distortion pedal
Danelectro "black licorice" distortion
Boss GEB-7 graphic EQ
EH Q-tron 3+ autowah
analog delay
Ibanez Lo-Fi 7 Filter
Boss NS-2 noisegate

 

Boss TU2
Budda Phat Bass
TC Electronic SCF
Sans amp Bass Di


= Simple But effect-ive

 

I'm pretty close to my ultimate chain

Boss loop select pedal split into 2 chains

Chain 1
Akai Deep Impact
EBS octabass

Chain 2
EBS Bass IQ
Boss Bass Chorus

Then the o/p from the loop selector is fed into an EBS multi comp.

The only thing I'm likely to replace is the Boss Bass Chorus (what can I say, I didn't know any better when I bought it... I hadn't been here !)

 

i would say:

crybaby 95Q bass wah
ebs octabass
ibanez phat head bass overdrive
dod fx62 bass stereo chorus
boss bass equaliser
boss fv-50 volume pedal

thats all i need, cant image much else
cya later

 

Here's my dream fx rig:

(Tech 21 Bass Compacter)
Boss LS-2 Line Selecter:

Send:

Loop 1

Digitech Bass Whammy
EH Big Muff
Boss PH-3 Phase Shifter
Boss TR-2 Tremolo
Dunlop Bass Wah

Loop 2

(EBS Octobass)
EH Q-Tron + (EH Small Stone in FX Loop)
(EBS MultiDrive)
(EBS Small Clone)

To:

(Boss NS-2 Noise Selector)
Boss ME-8B (for Chorus,Flange,Delay,Reverb & Tuner)
Boss EV-5 Volume Pedal
Line 6 Delay Modeller (For Looping)

Trace Elliot AH300SMX Head with DBX Subharmonic Synth in FX Loop

The pedals in brackets I haven't got yet! And yes I know it's ridiculous!

 

Whoops that should be EH Small Clone and Boss NS-2 Noise Suppressor. My brain's getting confused, imagine the effect on my feet!

I know Doug Wimbish has got a stupidly large set-up. Anyone know of any others bass players with fx addiction problems!

 

I guess I could add some cool overdrive pedal to it as well.

 

Direct from my wishlist:

Crowther Audio Prunes & Custard
Guyatone MD2 Digital Delay
EBS Octabass
Volume Pedal of some variety
Akai Head Rush (a boomerang, if I could afford it)
Akai SB-1 Bass Synth
MXR Phase 90
Digitech Whammy

Not to mention:

Boss DR-770 Drum Machine
Korg Pandora PX3B

I already have an EBS Unichorus and Chunk Systems 00Funk, both of which kick ass, by the way.

 

Current rig...
Electro-Harmonix Big Muff (russian, green)
Electro-Harmonix Q-Tron+
Z. Vex Wooly Mammoth
Crybaby Bass Wah (the old one)
DOD Bass Grunge

Dream rig...
Electro-Harmonix Big Muff (bass and bypass mods)
Electro-Harmonix Bass Micro Synthesizer
Z. Vex Wooly Mammoth
Crybaby Bass Wah 105Q
Dredge-Tone Angler
Lovetone Meatball
Lovetone Big Cheese
Prescription Depth Charge
And maybe a decent multi-effect unit for flange and delay.

 

I don't think I'm that much of a gearhead...

 

Give me a good overdrive/distortion pedal and i'll be set.

 

Sure that's what they all say.

 

Your right...as soon as i get that i'll pobably want phasers, flangers, and all those other goodies. But right now i am searching for the golden distortion pedal.

 

alright..here's mine...and funny thing is, I have this setup!
Fulltone Bass Drive
TC SCF Chorus/flanger
EBS Bass IQ
Line 6 DL4 Delay Modeler/Looper
Raven Labs PHA1 Preamp
Raven Labs MDB1 Mixer/Buffer Amp/DI
TC Electronics M-One
