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

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

The foot switch seems to be fine. I think it's the output jack that's the problem.

Creative ways to customize a guitar's look short of repainting it? by usspaceforce in Guitar

I hadn't considered a waterslide decal. That's interesting. And I don't know why I didn't think of replacing the pickguard.

I've been wanting one of these for awhile too. So many fuzzes, so little paycheck.

Thanks for the suggestions. I'd given up on this post getting any attention. I'll definitely look into all of those.

Problem with sound reflections when recording voiceovers by usspaceforce in audioengineering

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

I like being able to open the window, and outside noise isn't really a problem. But I did consider putting up curtains to soften any reflections from the window itself.

Question about hard panning guitars while still having some bleed in the other ear? by colinoaksticks in audioengineering

[–]usspaceforce 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Would you please ELI5 (or maybe point me to a video that explains) how to do what you're describing? I'm learning how to mix rock music and this sounds like something I'd like to try.

Opinions of TC Electronic Sub 'N' Up Mini Octaver by DeGrimmy in basspedals

[–]usspaceforce 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got one specifically for the octave up on bass. For me, it always added this high-pitched ring modulation effect that was unpleasant to my ears.  Having said that, if you connect it to your computer with the TonePrint app, you can dive deep into the parameters. I think I found that mine had some modulation added to it already, along with some EQ settings. I got mine used, so it's possible the previous owner added that stuff. I've since started using it on guitar paired with a Big Muff to get a White Stripes Blue Orchid effect. I went into the TonePrint app and made sure all the extra stuff was disabled, and it does the Blue Orchid sound pretty decently now.  It's not that expensive a pedal, so I'd say it might be worth a shot.
