The Boss OC-3 octave is an excellent bass pedal... It's polyphonic, tracks really well, and has a dedicated bass input. My favorite part is, you can dial in the range. I set mine so that only the B & E strings (5 stringer, here) will trigger it, leaving the high notes clean & giving the low notes some boom. Great for reggae, funk, or any time you want booming, in-your-face bass. Edit: Noticed quite a few of the "don't need pedals/picks are bad" crowd putting you down in the comments... Remember, kids, putting someone down for playing "wrong" (ie differently) is a sure sign of insecurity. Do what YOU like. Don't listen to the "purists," they're too busy kissing up to Davie 504 & sounding like everyone else to have fun (or say anything worthwhile). The electric bass is less than 100 years old, let's find out what it CAN do, rather than arbitrarily decide what everyone else shouldn't. Holy crap, my edit turned out longer than my original comment... Great video, keep up the sonic experimentation!
Total noob question- I use an Ampeg PF500, it has inputs for an FX loop. When I gig, if I wanted to go DI- would I just plug into my pedalboard and then go DI from the amp? Or would I want a separate DI box on the board that would do to the PA mixer from there? Also- should I use the FX loop for the board? Sorry if this is too general just no clue
Thank you for this. I have been playing my bass naked for a while now. I was looking to dress it up with some effect pedals. The only things I was looking at was compression and chorus. But now seeing some of these possibilities I have some new ideas. I have a way huge swollen pickle for my guitar I will have to give it a try.
Compression and chorus are the 2 I use the most. I also have a distortion which isn't very good for most music i do. I have a octave effect too, but it burns through batteries too fast.
@@Jacob-wb1kv I added a Joyo rechargeable power supply to my 6 pedal board. Holds a charge for a couple weeks. Just charge it at home btw gigs. Or even while in use. Few different brands out there.
Things for a newbie to bass pedals that'll make you seem like an expert: Keeley Bass Compressor, MXR Bass Chorus Deluxe, Mini POG, and just find a distortion or fuzz that suits your tastes. I personally don't love the swollen pickle as much as the wren and cuff pickle pie.
That was a bit judgmental on a subject that’s very subjective! I have the SansAmp & love it. I also liked the harmonizer. Thanks for the run-through of the board!
2:00 "it's also really good for, uh, slapping, which I don't do..." 2:06 [pretty good...] 6:44 [kills it...] Nice demo - thanks. Enjoyed the walk through of the Harmonist especially. Nice comparative run down of all the pedals with the Sans Amp too.
De acuerdo contigo ese pedal aún lo conservo y es de mis favoritos, con el tiempo he visto que su precio a aumentado más del doble de lo que costaba. 😮
This video just make me more way feel blessed, coz I just finally got my new sansamp programmable bass driver di, yahoo! Cant wait to get thoose other pedals. Sick pedals set!!
I've been trying to find this video for so long. I watched it a few years back and remember how amazing your tone was!! Just ordered the Sansamp, Thanks for making me spend £220!!😂😂
You don't slap but that brief little slap you did makes a whole lot of impression.. Fender has the best slap tone..I really loved the slap/pop tone of your bass. And you grooved it..
You really should put your overdrive, distortion or anything that adds gain in the front of the chain and then the compressor and lastly any type of modulation effects you’re using. It really does make a difference in the tone, frequencies and the modulation and pitch bending effects are not being corrupted by the excessive gain when they’re used together. Just a little something that I learned from someone else along the way and it’s pretty standard practice so I’m not trying to take credit for the knowledge, or be a know it all, rather just passing it along in hopes that it will be useful for you as well. Great video and demonstration! I have 5 of those exact pedals on my board and I would recommend them to anyone in a second 👌
+Chris Khalife They're both wicked pedals, just way out of my price range at the moment haha. Have you tried the Green Rhino with a guitar? If so, how does it sound?
+Chris Khalife thanks for take time to make the video. bro how did you install the behringer pedal on the pedal board?, it have a black flexible base, how did you install the velcro on the behringer noise reduction pedal? please, thanks by your help. Im preparing my own pedalboard and I have behringer pedals too.
Finally a bass vid with a new set of strings on the bass. Now I'll get a compression pedal to go along with my sweet sounding MXR M80. Those are the only 2 pedals I'd ever need. The M80 on it's own is amazing but a compressor would make a huge difference because I'm a rock player and I use a pick most of the time. Try an M80 with the gain set to zero and blend around 2 o'clock. It'll keep the clean bass notes with a little grind separate and behind it. Sounds awesome. Not sure why I stay away from the sansamp. I've used one recording and loved it. After this vid though, I might need to add it. Thanks, very good vid.
Yeahh men! When i heard him playing waking the fallen stuff i was like: mennn this dudes amazing, cmon mennn a nice set of pedals and also plays a7x, hes amazing
Great video bruv, gold for a budding bassist and I am sure for advance players as well 🤘 Really helpful for me as I am in the process of building my pedal board Keep bringing more such videos
Really enjoyed your video, thanks for that. Some great sounds you've got there and the Sansamp really makes a huge difference! I've just bough the Aguilar Tonehammer preamp/DI and I'm really happy with the difference it makes to my own tone. Next I'm hoping to add some more pedals to build my options. Thanks for sharing :-)
I'm so glad you posted this. I don't own any bass pedals and wasn't sure about the synth pedal but I'm pretty sure a synth, overdrive and that sansamp is all I need now. Awesome video.
Nice video this. I got a sansamp after I was lucky enough to have a chat with Craig from Sick of it All about his tone a few years back and it's an amazing piece of kit. On the behringer, I took a chance on one of their tuning pedals a while ago and had the same issues with build quality, the 1st one was DOA and the 2nd the cables wouldn't stay in, they're horrendous.
The Tech 21 sansamp is also my favorite pedal on my board and always with me wherever I play. You have it at the end of the signal chain. Does it work better there than if you'd put at the beginning?
More power to you, Chris! Been a fan ever since discovering your covers here on TH-cam. So glad too that you explained how some pedals work which got me scratching my head the first time I heard about it. :)
Usually when I see a million pedals my expectations aren't very high. However. All this stuff sounds surprisingly excellent. As of now all I want is a.) mounted tuner b.) Compressor c.) Chorus. However after watching this that bass synthesizer would sound incredible for some of the bass lines I play and continue to learn. Long winded way of saying well played sir.
Bass big muff does what you were describing with the bass fuzz deluxe. Flip the bass muff to the dry setting, the volume knob then becomes a blend knob between dry and wet
The noise gate should be around the remaining effects using the send/return effects loop so that its threshold could be kept the same regardless the activated effects. The shown setup requires a different threshold according to the activated effects.
Nice video, thanks for taking the time. Saves me the the time of going to the music store and bugging the staff to try pedals, making noise for hours while I decide.
I've used the Samsamp for the last 10 years, I'm happy with it. It's nice having the 3 presets. Only thing I don't like is that it doesn't have a Mid control.
JKees yes the sansamp is a game changer! The sansamp V2 has a mid control but they haven’t made a programmable version of it yet. If they do make one I would seriously consider it but it seems like they are pushing the artist signature sansamps
oh man! great demo, killer tone! you have really good taste in pedals and... just made me discover the Soundblox... DAMN. I thought I was done with gear and... there ya go! rock on Chris, happy new year!!!
I've been thinking of getting a pedalboard now too. I've watched a few vids and this by far is my favorite one. I'm in love with the Sansamp, Bass Synth Wah and Harmonist pedals! :D
I have 2 favorite pedals, the mxr bass fuzz deluxe and the harmonist. Great Hysteria tone and Don’t Stop Believin’ tone. I love the songs Hysteria and Don’t Stop Believin’. Hysteria: 9:49 Don’t Stop Believin’: 12:43
You covered a lot of ground very well. You have several pedals I'm looking at buying and your demo of them makes me want to pursue purchacing them. Overall a great video man!! ✌😎🤘
Hi there. I see you put the compressor before the synth wah. Can you explain what happens to the sound of the synth wah if you would put the synth wah before the compressor? Thank you.
Some great tones and nice chops. The Green Rhino is the big stand out to me. I know everyone has different tastes, but It impresses me more than the Pork Loin.
So great board! Just wanted to know what would be the next pedal board to purchase after the tuner and compressor? I play on church and trying to get the best gear possible
Great demo for the bass pedals you have demo, dude. You really rock it out, man! Thanks for the demo, dude. Man, I hope I could buy a simple bass pedal, which is a fender downtown express bass pedal, built with conpressor, overdrive and equalizer. Truth is I live in Philippines and I couldn't buy one because some guitar stores who sells are expensive. But anyway, keep it up, man. 😊
Great demo! Very cool sounds, but I really wonder how useful all of this will be when playing out. I'll take the tuner, Tech 21 and the compressor. The other stuff is cool, but not very useful- for me.
Yes the Sansamp is an always on pedal for me! In this video my setup had the Noise Suppressor at the end but on my current board I have it after my dirt/OD pedals. Hope this helps!
You've got some awesome pedals there. I love the MXR compressor and the Harmonist. I'd say that there's a much better noise gate than the Behringer one, the BOSS NS-2 I have it, it's amazing - you can get one for £65 or so
Bumping an "old" video... I was searching for pros using Behringer NR300 because I already bought it and had some insecurity about whether it sucks out tone and I wanted to see whether professionals actually approve of this and use it. And then you hit me with "My God is the Sun" by QOTSA, one of my favorite QOTSA songs, and then some Muse and now I'm totally sold.
My God is the Sun is one of my favorite QOTSA riffs. The NR300 as with all Behringer pedals is a solid pedal effects wise. However I took it off my board and the reason is the Behringer pedal build is awful and will not last in the long run. I use the EHX Silencer which is only double the cost and a much better build. Behringer effects wise is just as good though, just be careful if using it for heavy gigging!
Re: your OD quest, have you tried the Catalinbread SFT or, for fuzz, the Mojo Hand FX Colossus? I think they may be in your wheelhouse. I put the compressor at the end to let the dynamic pedals shine, smooth everything out and compress/level adjust the signal before the preamp. The Harmonist is very cool. Never heard of it. Good stuff. Love your P-Bass. Thanks!
Nice pedalbord, thanks for video. I understood that boss harmonist is the pedal that i need to play schism because bass whammy is so hard to find in Russia :D
It is interesting that that you put the SansAmp so late in the chain. Usually, di's are recommended to be near the beginning. Do you feel that you are getting more impact from having it in your chain where it is?
I've heard that before too but I like having it at the end of my chain. With my new setup I have the Sansamp as the last pedal so I can use the XLR out when I record. If I had the Sansamp first and I used the DI then it would just get my clean bass signal without any effects. I also like how my dirt pedals sound when they come before the Sansamp as opposed to after. Hope my perspective helps!
The Source Audio Hot Hand is an expression pedal that controls parameters based on which axis you move the hot hand. I connected the Hot Hand to the Source Audio Multiwave Distortion and the Hot Hand controls the drive parameter. The Hot Hand can connect to most pedals that have an expression output as long as you configure it correctly.
You could always buy a super small chorus pedal and put it after the synth wah it would fit there's plenty of mini chorus pedals that would fit you also could swap out some gain pedals for some other cool stuff like a wah,tremolo or echo there's a lot of cool stuff you can put on bass to spice it up
The Boss OC-3 octave is an excellent bass pedal... It's polyphonic, tracks really well, and has a dedicated bass input. My favorite part is, you can dial in the range. I set mine so that only the B & E strings (5 stringer, here) will trigger it, leaving the high notes clean & giving the low notes some boom. Great for reggae, funk, or any time you want booming, in-your-face bass.

I could do that. I just don't like adding more wire clutter on stage. I might look into the all in one pedals like roland or zoom.

Actually your bass by itself without any effects, sounds awesome.
The sansamp is the secret sauce that makes your tone really shines.
Out of those, the chromatic tuner sounded best.
Your correct and the mxr compressor and the rest i dont know...hahha
No love for the noise reducer?
Maaan this gave me a good chuckle. Thanks... And agreed.
Where are your videos?
That was a bit judgmental on a subject that’s very subjective!
I have the SansAmp & love it. I also liked the harmonizer.
Thanks for the run-through of the board!
2:00 "it's also really good for, uh, slapping, which I don't do..."
2:06 [pretty good...]
6:44 [kills it...]
Nice demo - thanks. Enjoyed the walk through of the Harmonist especially. Nice comparative run down of all the pedals with the Sans Amp too.
Right?!? 😂
Man those deluxe P basses always sound killer with the PJ combo. Great demo!
TC makes a noise gate that you can customize certain frequencies to be suppressed more than others, it’s called the Sentry. Absolutely love it
The Digitech is one of the best bass pedals ever made.
Digitech makes some of the best pedals period, they’re so Underrated and unknown considering their technology’s abilities
De acuerdo contigo ese pedal aún lo conservo y es de mis favoritos, con el tiempo he visto que su precio a aumentado más del doble de lo que costaba. 😮
@@juanescobar6086yeah but now because of JHS, they all have risen in price
12:01 Dude... Sell one of your overdrives to buy a good cables... You'll hear an instant difference in clarity.
thats what i was thinking
What cables do you recommend? Monster?
@לילה טוב What about Hosa
Check out Monoprice online for premium cables at discount prices. Seriously, they have good stuff cheap!
I like the boss harmonist in chorus and pitch dive modes. Thanks Chris!
Sans Amp really improves the bass sound.
This video just make me more way feel blessed, coz I just finally got my new sansamp programmable bass driver di, yahoo! Cant wait to get thoose other pedals. Sick pedals set!!
I wasn't going to watch the whole video. I stayed and watched the whole video. Nice board sounds, man.
Your understanding of how compressors work is astounding.
You caught me by surprise when you busted out Chapter Four during the harmonist demo. Freakin sick man! I havent heard that song in years
I've been trying to find this video for so long. I watched it a few years back and remember how amazing your tone was!! Just ordered the Sansamp, Thanks for making me spend £220!!😂😂
That clean tone with the compressor D:
I have an Aquilar TLC and can not hear any difference. Maybe my ears have list sensitivity with age!! It’s just not the TLC.....any compressor 😒

You don't slap but that brief little slap you did makes a whole lot of impression.. Fender has the best slap tone..I really loved the slap/pop tone of your bass. And you grooved it..
Love the Aguilar Agro bass distortion. Really good vid. Thanks Chris!
Never thought of putting the Sansamp towards the end of my chain. Great idea!
This is a really cool demo of some great sounding pedals. Nicely done, sir. Thanks for this.

Good stuff, infor and playing. I am going to get the hot hand and play around with my harmonist and some other pedals! Great playing!
Looking at Sweetwater, the only a Harmonist I see is the four-knob version. I’d like to find an 8 knob.
I’d sell my Aquilar TLC in a heartbeat
I just plugged my bass into my rhino last night just to see what it sounded like and, it sounded amazing, going on my bass pedal board now.
Man, you've got one helluva tone bank on this board!
Loving the Green Rhino. Might have to invest sometime soon. And I'm mighty jealous of your pedalboard dude haha

My first pedal is coming tomorrow, it's a Russian big muff pi (the electro-harmonix one) can't wait.
Be careful, you’re going into a hole you will not be able to escape. Since it’s been a time, is it any good?
So, 1 year later. I assume you have like 15 pedals now...
Great video bruv, gold for a budding bassist and I am sure for advance players as well 🤘
Really helpful for me as I am in the process of building my pedal board

Digging the Tech 21 Sans Amp, and in combo with other fx. It really brings out the tone.

To get a really good muse bass tone use the bass muff with the synth should get what u were trying to get
The noise gate should be around the remaining effects using the send/return effects loop so that its threshold could be kept the same regardless the activated effects. The shown setup requires a different threshold according to the activated effects.
You do you tough guy...
How much for just the board mate? Where’s your hardcase like?
Woah, that Sound Blox unit is badass. Need to get one of those. And I have those same socks.
Dude I'm so stoked you came out with this. Now I know which pedals to get :D thanks!!!
Cool board! I have the MXR Fuzz as well. Thanks for sharing!
Nice video, thanks for taking the time. Saves me the the time of going to the music store and bugging the staff to try pedals, making noise for hours while I decide.
The aguilar + DI sounds cool. Just like the alpha omega by darkglass electronic

NICE TONE WITH THE AGRO AND GREEN RHINO! WOW!
Hi Chris
Very well organized & helpful presentation.
Thank you.
I've been thinking of getting a pedalboard now too. I've watched a few vids and this by far is my favorite one. I'm in love with the Sansamp, Bass Synth Wah and Harmonist pedals! :D
What setting do you use on the middle of your Sansamp? Sounds awesome!
I have 2 favorite pedals, the mxr bass fuzz deluxe and the harmonist. Great Hysteria tone and Don’t Stop Believin’ tone. I love the songs Hysteria and Don’t Stop Believin’.
Hysteria: 9:49
Don’t Stop Believin’: 12:43
Loved your main preset on the sansamp (middle one)! What were the settings?
You covered a lot of ground very well. You have several pedals I'm looking at buying and your demo of them makes me want to pursue purchacing them. Overall a great video man!! ✌😎🤘
Nice demo. Lots of tones that suit a bass player perfectly.
The best bass pedal board video I've seen so far!
That Green Rhino is a beast!
MXR fuzz + diigtech synth = pure hysteria sound
WOW, the green rhino sounds really fucking great.
You have a really good tone!
Hi there. I see you put the compressor before the synth wah. Can you explain what happens to the sound of the synth wah if you would put the synth wah before the compressor? Thank you.
Some great tones and nice chops. The Green Rhino is the big stand out to me. I know everyone has different tastes, but It impresses me more than the Pork Loin.

Yes the Sansamp is an always on pedal for me! In this video my setup had the Noise Suppressor at the end but on my current board I have it after my dirt/OD pedals. Hope this helps!
I'v got digitech bass synth too. How you solved volume problem with this? Digitech has sound much louder then clean bass...
Had the same issue with the Boss pedal, ended up going with the DarkGlass microtube B3K
You've got some awesome pedals there. I love the MXR compressor and the Harmonist. I'd say that there's a much better noise gate than the Behringer one, the BOSS NS-2 I have it, it's amazing - you can get one for £65 or so

Question, what type of amp would/do you use with those pedals? Also, what settings do you set on the amp?
Do you use any kind of amp and cabinet when you play a gig? Or maybe you just plug into Sansamp DI? Please let me know.
That green rhino sounds so good with my god is the sun

If the voodoo lab only has 8 inputs how are you using 10 pedals? Or are you using a daisy chain into the boss tuner to power the other two?

The Source Audio Hot Hand is an expression pedal that controls parameters based on which axis you move the hot hand. I connected the Hot Hand to the Source Audio Multiwave Distortion and the Hot Hand controls the drive parameter. The Hot Hand can connect to most pedals that have an expression output as long as you configure it correctly.
You could always buy a super small chorus pedal and put it after the synth wah it would fit there's plenty of mini chorus pedals that would fit you also could swap out some gain pedals for some other cool stuff like a wah,tremolo or echo there's a lot of cool stuff you can put on bass to spice it up
