Fun experiments with the Trickfish VCA Compressor and Overdrive Preamp!

I recently got all 4 of the new Trickfish pedals, having fallen in love with them at NAMM in January. Here's a video exploring two of them a little - the VCA Compressor (which I just leave on one setting for this video - maybe I'll dig into it more later!) and the Overdrive Preamp which is ridiculously great.
see www.trickfishamps.com/ for full details.
The bass I'm using is my Elrick SLC Mk II and the rest of the processing is coming from the MOD Audio DuoX. Enjoy!
There's none of that 'like and subscribe' nonsense going on here, but if you're interested in more of what I do, head over to stevelawson.bandcamp.com ;)

I need to get myself that distortion pedal, love that it keeps the low signal and only eq's the distorted part such a simple but clever detail

[@solobasssteve]

yup, it's a lovely addition. It's one of those little things that it's possible to build inside a multi FX but having it in front gives you that extra bit of control of what's going into the other box. I love it, even with all the processing power of the DuoX.

Love that. Really enjoyed it

[@solobasssteve]

Thank you!

[@Julesplaysbass]

Thanks for this! I’ve been mostly using the compressor, so this definitely gives me some more ideas for digging into the overdrive

[@solobasssteve]

Ooh I can't wait to hear what you do with the overdrive - your sound already has such a defined attack, I can see the overdrive becoming a key part of your sound!!

[@Julesplaysbass]

@@solobasssteve I’m thinking it might be just the ticket to get my rickenbacker really sounding monstrous! I just gotta find the perfect song to show it off

[@solobasssteve]

@@Julesplaysbass yeah, I'm pretty sure you could do a pretty amazing version of a lot of the classic Rick tones - Chris Squire, Lemmy, Geddy. Having the EQ there would help counteract for of that inherent clackiness of the Rick and put some weight back into the sound x

Really nice demo, Steve. What is the processor that you are running everything through, per chance?

[@solobasssteve]

thanks Rick. it's the MOD Audio DuoX. The current version is called the Dwarf - Bob developed a plugin version of the Looperlative for it.
