Here is a run down of a Bass preset I created. I use parallel compression, the fx loop block, and a parallel DI/Amp combo to get a vibey, vintage sounding bass tone as well as tones suited for rock.

What other effects are you using on Bass?

@cyb3r3vil30 4 года назад

EHX Metal Muff MXR Dyna Comp

@trunks828 4 года назад

I mainly use the darkglass overdrive and the full tone drive with the double tank reverb as my go too on bass sometimes I play around with a delay.

@11ciwi 3 года назад

I like running the minotaur in a parallel loop

@gearforest9746 3 года назад

Sansamp programmable driver di or mxr m80 + and another Drive like boss odb 3 / aftershock and the super fuzz or carcoza fuzz. And a Delay for swells.

@teresaravenshaw5477 Год назад

Flanger.

@esposoman 3 года назад

I liked a lot. It's a big and full bass tone.

@MichaelWWestbrook 3 года назад

Thanks for watching!

@tomzeto 2 года назад

Thank you for sharing your knowledge Michael! I'm not a bass player, but sometimes I need to play parts in the studio, and having an HX stomp for electric guitar, this is so useful and versatile!!!

@oweneaton8531 Год назад

Mutant filter and a chorus is great for a synthy hip hop funky sound

@jimmy5381 4 года назад

Great job! Thank you so much for all your videos I always look forward to seeing them. I am constantly learning new things about my HX Stomp. This pedal is so useful and versatile. Have a great week Michael!

Great Video! Looking forward to get my hands on this unit!

@sliverhandsonbasses 3 года назад

That’s great except for 1) there are some phase issues while blending pedals in the fx loop, you end up losing bass, 2) if you have to play with an amp you will loose some of your options, because cabinet doesn’t sound good into an amp, and wherever you chose to add a send, you lose some option (either the sansamp or the b15). In an optimal situation this won’t be such a problem, but in an average club you rely on the amp as much as the foh tone...

I do not have the tube screamer. We can just a tube screamer from the hX correct.

Yes, correct!

@canadianguitar-garrettont7368 Год назад

Do you have a video on how your chaining everything on the board and using the stomp in the chain?

@canadianguitar-garrettont7368 2 года назад

Hi Michael ive been looking at the HX Stomp Im still fairly new. So what is the chain on the pedal board how does the HX stomp fall in? is it just for effects? I have a board i started working on I have a few pedals so far and heard alot of people using the HX stomp but no ones really said how to tie it all in physically. I want this running into my Mesa Boogie Subway D800.Thanks for any info you can provide.

@DennisElwell 3 года назад

Love the video. Simple & straightforward. Did you try A-B'ing the external TS with the on board HX 808. Curious as to your thoughts.

@MichaelWWestbrook 3 года назад

Thanks! I’ve had a few folks ask about that and I haven’t really done a head to head on the 808. Typically with drives I’ve preferred the real deal. I’ve compared the King of Tone and Klon models and always prefer the real thing. The models do sound good though but not quite the same

@nmfireman Год назад

So your Tube screamer is always on and you just press a button on the HX?

@MichaelWWestbrook Год назад

Yes!

@Monoteur Год назад

Hi, your video helps me a lot for starting with the HX stomp, thank you! Your bass sound is great with the flatwound strings. Do you realising any latency when you inserting an fx loop actually? Btw. I wound put the chorus in the sansamp path before the amp out. Modulation fx tending to lose low frequencies…

@adriengahery9471 4 года назад

What about having octaver pedal? Turns out I personnaly prefer the sound of it when the octave is placed right after a TS styled pedal. I.e. right at where your empty slot is in your HX Stomp.

@MichaelWWestbrook 4 года назад

Nice! I’ll give it a shot

@treherbertwalker3207 3 года назад

Have you thought of using the ts808 models instead of using the line out? If you did what settings would you use? I cannot tell what settings you used on your pedal.

@MichaelWWestbrook 3 года назад

Yes you could totally do that, it would take up extra space setting it up in parallel but not hard to do. I’d set gain to taste (for me around 9 o’clock) and run the tone pretty high. (Maybe start around 3/4 of the way up).

@treherbertwalker3207 3 года назад

@@MichaelWWestbrook Thank you Micheal for replying to an old thread, and for all your videos. Keep going brother.

@alexanicito2600 4 года назад

Hey man...so i'm trying to set up my signal chain and I can't see to add a send/return block. The whole section is grayed out. I want to run an external preamp I have into the stomp but won't let me add a block like you did for your TS

@MichaelWWestbrook 4 года назад

Typically if something is grey-ed out it means it’s not an option for some reason typically it’s a lack of processing power (some blocks use more than others depending on the model or effect). In this case I would assume it’s a routing thing. Check and make sure you have those jacks routed properly in the settings to be used as sends/returns. I believe they can be used in different ways so if they aren’t selected as that they won’t be available. (This is all off the top of my head, I’m not in front of my stomp currently)

@culturetrash3191 4 года назад

Fantastic sounding profile...would you consider making an HX Stomp bass preset available for purchase?

@MichaelWWestbrook 4 года назад

Yeah, I’ll try to put it up on the website tomorrow!

@audionapster1 Год назад

How do you hook up your bass in the inputs for left and right ? Or do you always use just mono hook up ?

@MichaelWWestbrook Год назад

Just mono for bass typically

@audionapster1 Год назад

What is the purpose of left and right input

@Afflat0x 10 месяцев назад

@@audionapster1Stereo would be mainly for guitars, or a more unorthodox/solo bass setup. Typically for reverbs and delays

@jamescartwright4750 4 года назад

Thanks for the video. I really like the tone you got for bass. Did you try using the Tubescreamer model instead of adding yours into the loop. Are they comparable?

@MichaelWWestbrook 4 года назад

You know, I haven't compared them head to head (don't know why not). A lot of the drives on the HX Stomp do sound great though. The few I have compared head to head aren't quite the same to the real thing... very close but not quite!

@crocholiday 2 года назад

Funny! I used to have a TS on my bass pedal board with a LS-2 to blend it. I'm surprised more don't use it. Out of curiosity, have you tried the TS model on the HX instead of the FX loop? Wonder how close of a tone you'd get to the real TS? Just picked up an HX Stomp and am looking to replace my current rig and pedal board with it. Not 100% sold on that but only having to pack and set up a small pedal board and a bass or two sounds pretty awesome to me.

@jameshoy3208 3 года назад

Have you tried splitting your signal before the FX loop to keep a clean low end? Then blend it in at the mixer?

@MichaelWWestbrook 3 года назад

If I bypass the blocks in either path that’s basically what is happening so, yes! I think it ended up programming that to a foot switch to be able to go back and forth between the 2.

Hi sounds nice did you put this up for purchase?

@thequantumvacuum Год назад

I'm starting to realize that there are so many people like me. I've been playing guitar since 1992 and have been the guy who took up bass when it was needed many times. Over the years I've fallen in love with bass, but I still have the mind of a guitar player. I learn so much more about bass from guitar players than bass players.
