Boss pedals appreciation thread

[dubkitty]

i get totally lost in the Slicer...there are so many options i can't keep track of them all.

[kbit]

GUYS STOP MAKING ME WANT A SLICER AGAIN

The fact you can loop with it is pretty awesome
I never did much texture looping with it when I had it... ugh

[dubkitty]

the last loop i posted has Slicer on it doing a rhythm loop in the background, chopping on the Gyroscope.

So on a whim I borrowed my guitar players Ds-1 w/ Keeley Ultra mod and put it on my bass board last night..... and I ran it through practice with medium / low gain in ultra mode.... and... well.... I'm posting this in the boss "appreciation" thread so you can guess that..... I LIKED IT!!!! Havent used a boss pedal in forever but this one doesn't have a shitty buffer, its medium / low gain tones had great articulation even during fast playing, and in ultra mode it doesn't really color the tone (unlike the SEM mode which i did not like on bass at all). I have to admit.... I like a boss pedal.

I have a number of friends that use unmodded DS-1s on bass and I'm always surprised and impressed even though I know it's coming

I've got an OC-2 right now. It's pretty much the best bass octave for the cash. I've had a BF-2, DD-5 and DD-20 in the past they were all decent and did pretty much what they were supposed to do. I liked them all.

[Officer Bukowski]

I just love the DD-7 so much

I was playing around with it today and discovered that the modulate setting is actually really cool. At first I didn't really like it because it has no rate or depth control but I feel like they set it fixed at a tasteful setting anyway

Nice demo Officer B! I like that spooky vibe. You're right, the modulation is spot on!

[echodeluxe]

tu2 for life. seriously., SRSLY.

[ryan summit]

[ChetMagongalo]

What are you playing through B? it sounds great!

[Officer Bukowski]

Thanks!

It's my SG Standard with the regular pickups into my Rangemaster clone (which is set low) into the DD-7 into my little practice amp.

The practice amp is like something you'd find at a swap meet or something. It's this really cheap little solid state thing that just says "GAX" on it. I found it in the attic. The speaker is tiny, like five inches in diameter. It's pretty noisy and dark but sounds kinda cool and has a pretty funky choppy trem.

Basically I just use it because my ac30 is at my drummer's house and would distort my iPhone mic anyways. I would rather have a Champ or something but the GAX has served me well

[ChetMagongalo]

awesome! Cool to hear you can own the tone on the cheap

if you want a delay that has tap tempo and sounds like a well maintained re-201, than this is your huckleberry.

i have been using it as my main delay for about 5 years now cuz it SOUNDZ SEW GEWD

but really it has this amazing character to it. it just sounds awesome. reverb is hilariously bad but strangely usable. get some.
