SaggyBalls Posted September 27, 2010 Report Share Posted September 27, 2010 You don't know why the rat is such a hit?Have you played one - like, a lot? Great on bass, killer on guitar driving tubes adding some grit. After a green ringer (BYOC armstrong clone perhaps?), a rat would be intense. Keep us posted. Get some muratic acid and etch the case with a neato 'Rheds' logo that looks like the Rhodes logo?Sawtooth LFO lowpass filter might be better than bi-phasing to give a synthy element he probably doesn't have in his rig.Feedback looping...would be a nice touch too.

briguy Posted September 27, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 27, 2010 came across this the other day and I want it. Some of you probably noticed it on Marco's facebook page We Were So Turned On: A Tribute to David Bowie featuring tracks from Marco Benevento, Megapuss, Warpaint, Duran Duran, Edwin Sharpe, Vivian Girls, and a bunch more.

bradm Posted September 29, 2010 Report Share Posted September 29, 2010 here's a preview of Marco in action with Dave Dreiwitz and Andrew Borger.Have we heard the full line-up of the trio for this run? I figured Marco would be using Andrew Barr for the drums (esp. since the run starts in Montreal), but I think Land Of Talk is on tour in the states during October, so I'm not sure.Aloha,Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
briguy Posted September 29, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2010 Montreal, Ottawa, Toronto, and Hamilton will have Dave Dreiwitz from Ween on bass and Andrew Borger from Tom Waits, Norah Jones, and Ani DiFranco on drums. After 10/17 I believe the lineup changes a few more times throughout the tour, including a few solo shows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schwa. Posted October 8, 2010 Report Share Posted October 8, 2010 TOOLY!flip those 2 around! the octave up/ring mod distortion would work better BEFORE the diode clipping circuits. The reason I say this is that I have a ringmod/up Octave distortion and it's pretty synthy and one of my favourite things in the world when I play it. much of what you'd get from the rat - unless you introduce a clean blend with the RINGER - would be lost with the rat>ringer combo. If you do the full on armstrong clone (BYOC) you'll have a punchier grind, as the orange squeezer/squash compressor can give you more going into the rat, and if you can put a clean blend on that between the ringer/rat then you'll have an even bigger range of layering with that pedal. If he runs his rhodes through this and hits a fat bassy note, a blend can let that bass go through but have the added benefit of some insane overtones (bendy, twisty, unsettling, engaging)Without a blend, hitting 2 notes together would be only useful when trying to tweak out on held notes or madness.So...ringer (with blend) > Rat (with blend) would probably be the simplest and best (IMO) featureset without setting in the Squeezer>Ringer(blend)>Rat(blend)Be sure to have the ringer and rat on separate toggles...or have some way to only use part of that box on its own.I hope that you can get the soundcheck / tweaker trial taped. I really dig my octave up distortion with my bass.I run:5 string J bass with tapewound strings>>Octaver (down)> Octav(i)a > parallel fuzz/overdrive> EHX Bassballs (dynamic (EF) filter)> Phaser (Envelope Following or LFO)Keep in mind that electric guitar is not as full of range an instrument as electric Piano, so limiting the frequency spectrum going out instead of opening it up going in would severely limit the use of your creation.WOW!

briguy Posted October 9, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2010 Elmdale has about 15 tickets left and Lauzon Music has a few (cash only). Ottawa Citizen is running something next week and that will probably move the remaining tickets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
