Got most my favorite pedals on here. Pretty soon I’d like to replace the stomp with an analog preamp, and run a wet/dry chain, split after the compressor with dry going through the Neptunium, and the wets going through all the dirt and preamp, and then blended back in together. Really loving this setup, and bonus points for my favorite color šŸŠšŸ¤ŸšŸ½

Need criticisms and questioning.

I am working on my first pedalboard. I am already quite an established player playing every sort of gig from metal to jazz to funk to dance and everywhere inbetween. I am starting to write metal music that is pretty tool inspired but I am also getting a bunch of pop gigs so I figure now is the time to build the versatile board for my needs.

What I would love is to show you the plan and what I already have and see if you can find holes or ask questions and give critiques and make me think things through before I pull the gun on a bunch of this.

Curious if anyone has used this for their DI. Trying to figure out if this would be good for an ampless bass rig

Bass Pedals Signal Chain

2 Upvotes

Hi, I need help/tips/advice for the ideal signal chain.

Current setup:

Bass guitar > Tuner > Bass DI box > Compressor

Where should I "insert" the EQ and overdrive in the chain?

Current rig:

- Korg Pitchblack tuner

- MXR M80 Bass DI Box

- MXR Studio Compressor

- MXR M89 Bass Overdrive

- MXR M108S 10-band EQ

Or should I change the chain entirely?

TIA!

The MXR El Grande bass fuzz is super cheap, but is it any good?

2 Upvotes

I'm always interested in bass fuzzes. I love playing one-man doom stuff. I've noticed for awhile now that the MXR El Grande is always really cheap used. I was surprised when I searched for it on this sub and only got one post from four years ago that nobody replied to.

So I figured I'd try asking again to see if anyone has anything to say about it.

Now that I mention it, I've also been curious about the MXR (I think) Blow Torch bass distortion (or fuzz, I can't remember atm). Anyone have an opinion on that one too?

If your able bodied ,not gigging more then once a week and can afford one . Why are you not using an actual amp, why are you just using a little di box ,, am I the only one who thinks it's kinda silly , and dare I say lazy ,,or lame , maybe I'm wrong , tell me tell me
