HI Flip . Thanks for the vid. At about 40:30 I am hearing the Alembic Series sound more clearly . What is the effect that you use with the Series I @ 43:19 ?  Kool !

I'm with Wolf on this one... =)
 
Next time you've got some time, I'd love to hear your thoughts on the E-M-W controls with the fretless Orion, compared to say, your Spoilers. I'm guessing it's a radical departure from Blackened?  
 
Nice side gig you have there!

FC Bass

Yep, the Orion 5 is singing a bit :-)
 
There will  be some reviews on all basses asap, EMW is a pretty awesome package.:-)

Just (think I) finished the mix of our new song: Wav download, click here
 
Vocals maybe a bit loud, but it's difficult to find the right proportions... I think I'll leave at as this :-)
 
Main bass: this Series I + Low B accent and slide on the fretless Orion. (Orion with chorus and delay)
Brand new R.Cocco strings on the Series I, no Eq and slightly compressed. About 100% Bridge pickup and 75% neck pickup (recorded on separate tracks)

Nice job Flip, I especially like the thematic riff beginning at :32 in... the added extended range B's are nice too. I've been considering adding bass guitar tracks underneath upright parts, as a counterpoint... haven't sold the other guys on the idea yet. You may have just helped make my case it can be done!

FC Bass

Thanx Gregory! :-)

Nice production, man... Drums & Understanding in the credits gave me a snicker. Gotta' have those guys in the band!

Richard has a tough job :-)

With the "Stereo" rig, SWR Bassic Black for the bass pickup and Orion, Laney powered monitor for the treble pickup. (which sounds surprisingly decent) I plan on adding another Bassic Black to replace the Laney, but for now this works fine :-)  

  (slightly) Better pic, but not including my Dad's fine Taylor guitar :-)

Hard to believe both those basses have walnut tops FC... nice pics. Like Button also pressed for your Dad's Taylor. The California connection must run in your family. =)

Hey, hey, Jerry Only (Misfits) with a Series I? :-)  

  Next to the Devastator basses (number 1 and number 2) :-)
