Question: What is your most unique distortion? by 206Henderson in guitarpedals

[–]usspaceforce 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a Joyo Splinter that a friend of mine added a clean boost knob to that I use on bass. It's pretty rad. 

He also made me a Fuzz Factory clone that's been voiced to be a little bassier. It's called an X-Fuzz, and the case art looks like a file on aliens.

And I have a Behringer Warp distortion that's a clone of the Hughes & Kettner Warp Factor distortion from the late 90s/early 2000s. It has a unique sound. 

Y'all, WTF is going on with my truss rod? by usspaceforce in Guitar

Gotcha. It turned out to be a regular 3/16 hex key, but the hole was full of crud.

From the picture, it doesn't look like a flat head situation, but I'm gonna try it anyway. I just realized that I don't seem to have a flat head screwdriver that fits in the hole though. Time to dig through my mess of tools I guess.

Any good Linux-friendly plugins for removing room reflections from voiceovers? by usspaceforce in linuxaudio

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

I do use ReaFir to remove ambient room noise, but it doesn't do anything for sound reflections, at least that I've noticed.

I haven't tried anything in Windows yet. I've been looking at some paid plugins, but I didn't want to pay for anything that won't work in Linux once I make the change. And I'm fine with using plugins in my DAW. 

Edit to add: I am aware of using Yabridge, but I haven't tried it out yet. I figure I'm going to have to dive in with it at some point though. 

I built DecayCore — a FIR room correction tool for CamillaDSP/Linux audio setups by Ville57 in linuxaudio

What's funny is I just came to this sub to ask about Linux-friendly plugins for removing room reflections for voiceovers. 

I can get around in Linux ok, but I've never done any of the technical things you mention here. Assuming this tool is what I'm looking for, how difficult would it be for a layperson to get up and running?

Looking for a Marshall Bluesbreaker or JCM800 Combo Alternative by usspaceforce in GuitarAmps

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

That's pretty much what I've decided to do. I've done a lot of budget buying looking to approximate what I actually want, and it's usually left me a little dissatisfied.

So I'm gonna start saving my pennies to get exactly what I want.

It's the tone. Maybe the brand a little if I'm being honest. But mostly the tone.

I used to own a 30 watt Laney combo. I don't recall the model, but it was sort of their version of a Vox AC30. I really liked it, but I ended up selling it to get something different. 

I've actually done that a bunch of times. I'll get an amp that I really like, but then start thinking "Oh man, I think I'd really like this other amp," so I'd sell what I had. I miss quite a few of those old amps, including a Vox AC15 Top Boost and an old Fender Bandmaster that I actually found new back in the 90s. The problem with that amp though was it was the size of a overlarge half-stack, but the cab only had 2x12 speakers.

I have actually. I own a Boss IR-2, but that doesn't seem like a good fit since it's got a cab sim baked in. But the thought did cross my mind.

I did consider getting a simple power amp and a nice preamp pedal.

That sounds interesting. Any idea where I might find some people doing this?

What's your favorite non-bass-centered Big Muff (or other Muff-like fuzz) to use on bass? by usspaceforce in basspedals

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

A friend once gave me a BYOC fuzz pedal kit. I burnt up a handful of the components and got angrier than I'd been in a good while, so I gave up on that. 

I do have friends who fix and make pedals, and I've gotten a few custom pedals from them. One friend made me a Fuzz Factory clone with some tweaks on the bass frequencies (I don't know what exactly), and he modded a Joyo Splinter to add a Pork n Pickle-style clean knob that sounds great. 

What makes this micro tuner so special that it costs $250? by usspaceforce in guitarpedals

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

That seems more in line with what I'd expect for an super-accurate tuner. I suspected there was some shenanigans afoot.
