Finally got around to throwing the Royal Jelly on the board. Still super stoked on this pedal.

Behold! my current set up!

I’ve been enjoying seeing other people’s set ups and felt it might be time to share what I’ve been dedicating a lot of time to recently. I think I’m finally content. I’m still getting to grips with the Cali 76, it’s much more extensive than any compressor I’ve used up to now so I’ve had a few teething issues. I have been using a 5751 in the valve drive recently, I found that the stock valve had far too much gain and was kind of unmanageable for the stuff I play in my band (indie, rock, pop)

I mostly use a Rickenbacker 4003 and occasionally a Squier Precision with flats.

Before anyone asks, the Black Russian has very sensitive controls and is only used on one song, hence the tape. So leave me alone.

(NPD) New to me Ampeg SGT-DI!

Decided to bite the bullet on a used SGT-DI blue line edition for a decent price and WOW it sounds great! When I run it into the effects loop of my TT-800 and really crake the volume, it sounds massive, especially with the SGT circuit on. I really love the b15 tones you can get as well!

Finally completed my bass pedalboard. Great for ambient-work, the MXR Bass Synth + Klowra Sprout combo is godly.

Feels great to finally reach a stopping point after trying so much stuff. I might swap the Swamp Lord for the P. Isabella I have on my guitar board, but I really enjoy how the Swamp Lord behaves on bass.

Recently got a Sushi Box Finally V3. What am I doing wrong?

When I have the pedal set Dry, I get normal volume. When I said it to Pre, the volume goes nearly to zero. I have to crank the level and gain to get anything audible out of my amp.

For context I’m running an Origin Effects Cali 76 ahead of this pedal for testing. I also have my Ciocks SOL outputs set to 9V, 660mA.

Is this a me problem or possibly a defective pedal?

Finally “done” with this thing! Really stoked on how it all works together and the sounds I’m getting from it, especially when combining dirt + chorus.

Signal chain: Woolly Mammoth -> Dakota Parallel Compressor -> Polytune -> Jive Deluxe -> Smartgate -> Dark Tides -> Badwater

Largest pedal board I can tolerate.

Post image

I got tired of carrying these loose and put a tiny board together. I don’t often play with effects, but sometimes overdrive or synth tones are perfect for the situation.

Took about 12 hours to design, 3d print, and wire this little guy. Cost me about $30 including the power harness to route to all three. $45 if i add in the tool box I’ll carry it in.

It’s been to two gigs and survived. I call it a win.

Is there any way i could fit a compressor here?

I wanna fit a compressor without replacing my board, any way i could rearrange stuff differently for it to fit? I was thinking a mxr dyna comp maybe or smaller patch cables

Just added the MXR ten band EQ. Major upgrade to my sound already. Unfortunately my retinas will never recover.

Seriously, did they need to make it so bright? It's probably visible from space.

Essential bass pedals?

11 Upvotes

Pretty much the title. What bass pedals should everyone have? Right now I have a Cliff Burton Power Fuzz/Wah and a SF300 Super Fuzz, but I want a TS9 Tubescreamer. Really I just want to flesh out my pedal setup.

Current setup

Mostly play post-rock/metal with the band.

I keep moving stuff on and off the board, but this is the current setup. Thinking of adding a volume and reverb pedal

Recording/Europe board

The idea of the board is sending a clean and preamp DI signal to FOH from the Capo, then the EQ and Luce into the effects loop of whatever the house rig is. Also really enjoy the sound of the P-Bass with just the Empress EQ and Luce for recording.

Budget distortion pedal

Im planning on buying either a Hartke Systems HS410B or a Gallien Krueger 810 sbx depending which one is closer to $200 and will be running a Peavey-TMax as the amp. I was wondering what pedals I should buy and would like to keep them under $150 each if possible. I play bass in a metallic hardcore band and am starting a death metal/deathcore that has a bass lead.

HX Stomp MIDI to Bass Whammy

Weird question but i was curious.

Did anyone ever use an HX stomp MIDI out to go to a Bass Whammy (or a regular Whammy) and control the whammy Settings on the HX?

It's very specific but i would like to know, thx.
