i bought the mixed in key live plugin last night. i think it was $12 dollars ![]()
Iām not really a gear acquirer, but Iāve just ordered EMG Geezer Butler pickups to replace the no name, no brand pickups that had been put on my bass some time in the past.
Iām excited to take off the old pickups and see if I can figure out what they actually are, because theyāre definitely not stock. But Iām mainly looking forward to replacing all the dodgy wiring and knobs.
Bought about 10 different types / brands of flats to try recently and think Iām going to stick with DR Legendās on my new Baum Bass. With La Bella Deep Talking Flats a close second.
Thinking I might create a thread where BassBuzzers can buy the old (literally 20 minutes of play time) flats off me. Maybe just cover the postage. Sound like a good idea?
Anyway stumbled across this guy. Clicked for the string comparison, stayed for the playing ![]()
Was one of the ten the Rotosounds? If so what did you think about them? I have some but havenāt strung them up yet.
Sounds like a good idea to me. If theyāre just going to clutter up your space why not move them on? Might not even need its own thread, could go in here. SAG - Selling Aquired Gear
Quad Cortex Mini @howard
ok thats awesome
Welp there my christmas gift for those year. I was already thinking hard about the regular quad cortex
I still love the Anagram but I kind of wish I had held off for a month before buying
Itās probably most useful for those who play bass and guitar. I own a second hand Nano cortex and I think the (sound) quality is top tier. I prefer this over my Tonex, but I am also a big NeuralDSP fanboy ![]()
I really like my helix. Being able to capture my Meris and Keeley reverbs so that I donāt need a second pedalboard plus getting my hooks into the Nueral DSP cloud though, yes please. Plus, the size of that mini is nuts. The only thing that I donāt care for is where they put the 4 footswitches. Seems like theyād be awkward to use.
Can I ask why x 2? Why do you love it, and why do you wish youād held off?
I have no need for them but GAS struck and now I have a pedal board with;
Electro Harmonix Pico Canyon Echo Delay Mini Pedal
Electro Harmonix Nano Q-Tron Envelope Filter
Electro Harmonix Bass Big Muff Pi
Lets see how much fun we can have!
Wait. Itās the same price???

So many options, effects, and tones ALL for bass (rather than being made for guitar but hereās a few things for the bass mutts). Form factor, I/O, easy to use interface and touchscreen (though I wish the screen were bigger). They update it a lot so itās only getting better with time

Mostly just to consider an alternate option. The Quad Cortex is proven and well supported for years so no mystery on whether it will continue being supported. Equally nice form factor. Even more I/O. The bigger screen size, an extra foot switch. GAS. So if I hadnāt bought the Anagram last month Iād be considering between these two options
Not quite, the mini is a couple of hundred less. Itās only $1400.
Been thinking about getting a 5-string. Havenāt been overwhelmed by the need for one though.
But now I have a line on a Ray35 HH for $400⦠and that seems too tempting to pass up.
Talk me in/out.
Well, if you donāt feel a need⦠or see a need given the music you like and the music you are playing, then I would advise against a 5āer. It might end up as 400 bucks standing around not being usedā¦
I love five-string basses, but I am also into fusion
If youāre into fusion or gospel, or metal, or perhaps Latin, then I would certainly recommend starting to explore 5āers. If itās mostly straightahead rock, blues and soul⦠not so much!
We have one ā¦
$400 for a Ray35 sounds like an incredible deal. Is there something wrong with it? That said if you donāt really need/want a 5 string I wouldnāt do it but that is a hard price to pass up
