The right half of my pedal board. |
Pretty self-explanatory pedal, the Boss DD-3 produces a delay effect that makes any sound played on your instrument play again a set amount of time later. A very basic pedal, it gets the job done.
Top Left: Source Audio Aftershock
The Aftershock is a bass distortion pedal that comes with a cable to connect the pedal to your phone. A free app on the phone allows you to preset 3 different distortions into the pedal and you can mess with the distortion settings via your phone. I use this for a fuller bass distortion sound, as it is a digital distortion effect (compared to the analog distortion/fuzz of the Animato and Black Russian, respectively). I use this pedal equally with my other distortions and think it is a quality pedal, but had I known it was digital, I probably would have opted for something a little more responsive to the bass' touch. Still a pedal that sees frequent use and cuts through the band mix well.
Bottom Right: Digitech Bass Whammy
The bass whammy is a very niche pedal that takes whatever note your instrument is playing and can pitch it up to 22 different ways, leaving a lot of room for experimentation. I only really use the octave or "5th up" harmony settings on the pedal, but it has a sound all its own.
Top Right: Panda Audio Future Impact
The Future Impact was my last major bass guitar purchase back in January 2016 and is a bass synth pedal that emulates many bass synths from the 80s. Like the Bass Whammy, this is also a very niche pedal that has around 99 different presets, however I only stay in the original 9 settings as they cover my synth needs.
