So I'm hoping to see Emilie Autumn this Saturday night. I think I may just explode in my pants.

Your Boss ODB3 is analog?

Oh, nevermind.

I was thinking along the lines of tubes v no tubes not digital v analog.

:lol: pretty much the best pokemon analogy I've ever heard.



An amps tube distortion can't be beaten by pedals. Simple as that. Digital tube preamp emulation plug in's can do it very well (might post samples sometime) but digital distortions will always sound like poos compared to rich, warm tubeage.

funkyhoney 03-17-2010 07:46 PM

Eh, I dunno.

Get excited about Emilie Autmn with me.

burtonbassist_102 03-17-2010 07:52 PM

who?

gaslight 03-17-2010 07:53 PM

Actually, disregard what I said about what I think about whether they are digital or analog, I'm not sure anymore. I've confused myself somewhere along the line, doesn't matter anyway.

Is this Emilie Autumn chick you're on about the one you posted all those videos of ages ago?

I'm pretty sure that was Emilie Simon actually.

I'll find a video.

funkyhoney 03-17-2010 07:57 PM

Good example of stuff she does:

Live video, it's like a stage show/burlesque mixed with it.

Is it the goth violinist?

EDIT: Oh yeah, I remember her.

funkyhoney 03-17-2010 08:00 PM

Of course when I say stage show I mean burlesque show.

I don't know if I find her that attractive but I'd take the burlesque over the music for sure.

funkyhoney 03-17-2010 08:23 PM

It plays games with my mind. Maybe that's the weird lump though.

FunkMetalBass 03-18-2010 02:41 PM

[quote=fatbandit;17866371]I thought it had about two sounds in it, one of which was unusable.

Didn't like it.

Though if you want to nail the tone for the intro of Around The World, you pretty much can't go wrong with it.[/quote]

This.

For about $30 more, you're much better off getting the EHX Bass Big Muff Pi. Separate outs for clean/dirty, bass boost switch, and blending abilities....it's a fantastic pedal. It's got so many variable distortion sounds on it from a pseudo-fuzz to a vintage overdrive sound. It really impressed me.


[quote=Spaceman Spiff;17866384]I have a Tubescreamer and a Big Muff. They make a pretty killer combo.[/quote]

Dude, you play guitar. Nobody cares about your guitar playing through guitar pedals.

fatbandit 03-18-2010 03:26 PM

I hated my Big Muff when I had it too. I'm really not a fuzz guy. I like my Catalinbread Hyperpak, but I wish I still had my two-knob version. The single knob one is really limiting :(

Really? I like the fact that the distortion is not overwhelming like on the ODB-3. I don't use it much because distorted bass tends to get lost in the mix of distorted guitars, but when I do use it, it's a great mild distortion.

Any suggestions for a multiple FX-loop pedal? (Not a looper, but an effects loop type - I'm thinking I'd like 2 or 3 loops to choose from)

fatbandit 03-18-2010 07:11 PM

Loopmaster did me a really good 6 channel looper last year. Not the cheapest or quickest, but it's good stuff. They'll wire it up pretty much however you want.

Things like that aren't too hard to find it you dig around a bit though :) There's a place over here called Red Onion that are pretty good with a quick turnaround - but I know you could find something more suitable your side of the pond.

So, not a loop pedal, but like a little patch bay where you can select which of your effects loops are being sent/received with?

That's a nifty idea.

Gattsu347 03-18-2010 09:44 PM

last night was EPIC. i woke up this morning on my friends lawn with my snowjacket on backwards, my beanie covering everything but my mouth, surrounded by like 15 empty beer cans. I dont know how many of the cans were mine because there were 4 people passed out in the same area :lol:

Really? What happened?

funkyhoney 03-18-2010 10:34 PM

Same old ****, dude trying to just pick up like 5 bottles *and* a carton and walk out, so I pretty much said verbatim "I'll just take those ones off your hands" and pulled most of the bottles off him. So he just walked and and said me and my co-worker were "gay."

I think he got a warm carton of premix and a bottle of Baileys. I just went for everything of value. Then I got in **** for "endangering myself" because they think I'll get my **** ruined again :p

gaslight 03-19-2010 08:39 AM

Hmm, Aguilar make a pick-up now. How about that.

FunkMetalBass 03-19-2010 10:43 AM

[quote=gaslight;17871638]Hmm, Aguilar make a pick-up now. How about that.[/quote]

Yeah.

I'm really not a fan of single coils anymore. That 60-cycle hum just gets on my nerves.

FunkMetalBass 03-19-2010 10:55 AM

Sh*t. I set the handling time for my eBay items to 3 days instead of 5. I got back into town yesterday (day 4) and hadn't had time to check my personal email until today, where I had 4 or 5 angry emails about not receiving shipping confirmation. Hope I don't get any negative feedback and that the buyers are understanding.

Spaceman Spiff 03-19-2010 11:01 AM

Send them a poo box if they give you negative feedback.

Epidemechanical 03-19-2010 02:32 PM

im working on a cover of head like a hole atm
