Title: Ghost Note (Afterlife with Sensitivity control) demo Woops, fixed link 7/2
Post by: midwayfair on June 29, 2012, 10:23:08 PM


Unfortunately it's tough to demo compressors with the handheld. But I have to work with what I have.

Enjoy!

Just wondering if there's something else people would like to see a demo of? If it's on my build list or in my stable, I'll give it a shot in the future.

Hi,
can I ask which pot you used for the sensitivity? Did you put a resistor in series with it?
I'm going to build an afterlife, but I will use it with bass and powered at 18V so I think it's better to have a sensitivity control.

Thank you.

It's a linear pot in series with a 24K resistor.

Always enjoy your videos and demonstrations. I'd like to hear the zero point sdx and the pork barrel along with a low rider. Do you own a bass?  ;D I'm curious of the tracking issues on the low rider and how it really affects real world use.

I probably won't build a pork barrel. I've owned a really good CE-2 clone (Malekko) and ended up selling it to a friend. I tend to use a delay for "chorus."

Yes, I own an Epiphone viola bass. My friend Joe (bass player in my band) has it on permanent loan, though. I'm not a good bass player. Also, somewhat ironically, I play bass with a pick.

I've recorded with it on bass -- it works fine. If you use active, it will work really well. The tracking is somewhat better with larger signals.

Thanks Jon, that is a bit ironic that you use a pick with bass. I have the bass chorus from boss,and I'd like to build my own but I can't find a good reason to do it,the sustain and chorus is really great,I'd just like to go to a true bypass pedal (maybe I'll put THAT on the paramix,as of yet I haven't found a good use for it.). I play an active Ibanez 5 string and a Fender pbass with dimarzio humbuckers. Not active but a fat sound, so it should do well then.
So that's yes on the Zero Point sdx?  ;D
