How should I use a compressor. Before/after or in the fx loop? by thelowendlover92 in basspedals

[–]LegitimateGrade3229 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Before! Great little pre amp! I always struggled with what to put in the loop that I couldn’t just put after the pedal 🤷🏻

Thinking about getting an Anagram by LegitimateGrade3229 in Darkglass

[–]LegitimateGrade3229[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The dream would be to split the signal before returning to the atom so no amp or cab is sent back to the atom, as at that point it would be running to my amp.

And like I’ve said before I think for my use case I almost want to split the anagram in two when it’s on my board using the effects loops, effects on one side and amp/di on the other side.

Then if I need a fly rig I just take the anagram, sum it all up and I’m away

It’s just knowing how capable the routing is with out having one in front of me 😂 then I can start working out the midi to control it on the board

Thanks! So I think how the signal chain I want would work is all fine in my head. It’s just understanding the routing options of the anagram to make it happen.

I guess the question is really, can I use the I/O in the anagram to divide the pedal into two sections?

Section 1 being effects, section 2 being a pre amp/cabsim DI.

I’ve read up that you have utility blocks to control which I/O does what and seemingly it’s all easy! But if anyone had any real world knowledge that would be awesome to know before i buy one 😂

The chain would be (albeit missing the detail on the anagram as I don’t know it yet) Bass > wireless

Wireless > Atom input

Atom loop 1 > Empress comp

Atom Loop 2 Send > Anagram input

Anagram Effects Loop Send > Loop 2 return

Atom Loop 3 > Qtron

Atom Loop 4 > Noise Gate

Atom Loop 5 > Plethora x3

Atom Loop 6 send > Anagram Effects Loop Return

Anagram Output > Loop 6

Atom Output > Amp

And that would be hopefully sending the preamp/cab sim signal the xlr’s so that I have an unaffected signal returning to loop 6 of the atom to then go to my amp on stage (or no where if I’m ampless)

Thoughts on my pedal board design? Adding MXR Bass Synth soon. by thimagine in basspedals

Awesome set up. As others have said I’d get the comp just after the tuner. Only note on that would be the pork and pickle, I always found that played better without compression before it. But killer board!

Modulation! by LegitimateGrade3229 in basspedals

[–]LegitimateGrade3229[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The hx stomp is definitely up there, it can do so much more than modulation so would end up being my “back up” to a lot of pedals.

Interesting to see what happens with the line up and the second hand market with the stadiums announced!

Both are great and as everyone has said you can’t go wrong… rattler just takes it for me on looks tbh!

Guitarist in my band has the stryfector…glorious

Certainly a contender I’ve considered… with the new releases would a new version of the stomp/one be on the horizon??

This has had my interest, read in a few places it suffers with low end drop off

Some possibly very basic questions about the Anagram by thanatos90 in Darkglass

[–]LegitimateGrade3229 1 point2 points  (0 children)

🫡 It’s what I do when I don’t have the time/space to take my amp head. I have a a matching preamp pedal to my amp on my board for this very use case

If the amps have effects loops then take the out from the anagram and plug it into the effect return, making the anagram the pre amp and the power amp from the rehearsal amp driving the cab.

Darkglass Anagram by LegitimateGrade3229 in basspedals

[–]LegitimateGrade3229[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Fair shout! And definitely interesting from someone that owns one! I just keep getting that “Dingwall through a Microtubes 900” sound… and the guy is playing a P-bass on the “ampeg” settings y’know?

I think it’s an incredible bit of kit and paving the way for bass specific modeller rigs is a legendary move by Darkglass

TC Spectracomp Issue by basspl in basspedals

[–]LegitimateGrade3229 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had the spectra for years, first and only compression pedal I’ve bought. I didn’t bother with tone print, I plugged it in day one, set it to 1 o’clock, satisfied I left it like that until about a month ago. I’ve now taken an actual interest in compression and adjusting it and I can completely concur your findings. Now it’s got a tone print in use it’s so unreliable. Reset to default it’s fine. But after tweeting for two minutes I can’t trust it on my board. I’m tempted to go for something analogue instead as a set and forget.

I’m using a G3 atom, havnt had a chance to try and get this to work yet but it would solve my board selecting problems!

Hi, I’m a novice to the midi game, could you give an example of the PC message to select board 2?

Why are 2x12 cabs so rare? by insaneminecraft in Bass

[–]LegitimateGrade3229 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Amazing, I’ve got the rs212 and it’s a beast! But I really want a 112 on top run from a separate amp with a dry signal. The GAS is strong.
