that's cool, fun to play with, I just bought an early japanese boss bf-2 flanger from a guitarist who didn't use it, now that's a pretty cool effect for both guitar and bass, especially with distortion.

yeah, I like to use my chorus and wah with a lot. I'm gonna try a Chorus/Bass Synth/Distortion/Wah combo at next practice and see just how crazy I can get.

haha, mixing effects can be a lot of fun indeed, I guess there's some Jimi in all of us. Keep us informed on how it sounds, I never used a synth effect myself, but I know it can sound pretty cool. btw, where's that bells tapping thing you promised me?

Whoa. There are new posts in my forum A boss bass synth you say? Coolness. I was looking into getting a bass synth pedal a while ago when I was hooked on Bootsy Collins Never got one but I'd still like to have one to play around with. The boss one looks interesting, and I think it's the smallest as well, in a standard sized stompbox case. Have fun with it man Gotta go listen to some Bootsy stuff now ;D...........................

Yeah, the pedal can be a pain, though... it has its tracking issues...

same thing with my whammy pedal, but the worst problem on that is that the rocker pedal doesn't come down so that the pitch keeps rising, so it sounds you're out of tune, that sucks. I took it back to the store under warrant, so we'll just see what happens next. Keep bangin'

No, the pedal won't go all the way down to "normal pitch" in whammy mode, so normally you can set it to shift an octave up for example, when you rock the pedal full forward and shift back to normal when rocked full back, but when you step off the pedal, it comes back up a little, thus making the pitch rise.
I read somewhere else that it's probably the screw that holds the pedal should be tightened but it's some foreign size which I don't have, so I took it to the store, there's still warranty on it, so we'll just see what happens.

okay, cool... now I get it. Yeah, I've never looked at the screw on one to see what size it is. My chrome morley wahs used to do that!
