A-Plate1 Stick - MOD Devices

Nicola Carrai

No astonishing effects, just searching for a "jazzy" sound, soft and warm for the dual channel Chapman Stick. Dynamic controlled by compressors, simple eq to make melody strings "sing", to make bass string fuller and to avoid thin harpsichord-like sound. Reverbs are adding light ambiance, Both are sent to both outputs to have best sound if sent directly to a PA mixer or to have two identical mono signals, one for amp and one for mixer. Crossover helps to have chorus only on the higher strings of the bass side of the Stick for a steadier bass sond. Mono Tiny Gain is controlled by right footswitch to add gain during jazz solos, left footswitch assigned to chorus. Knobs are controlling final gain, reverbs, eq and mono gain for last moment live adjustments. :) p.s. sorry for some mistakes... just to give an idea of the pedalboard.

I like how you use the crossover to send higher frequencies to a chorus to save the lower frequencies from being lost.

You know, once I thought to ask Emmett Chapman about the possibility of splitting bass side channel into two, one for 6th and 7th strings and one for strings 8th to 12th. I never did it but that idea was still somewhere in my head… :slight_smile:

I believe there were some made in a 7+5 setup.

Whoops! I found the cables going out from the crossover are inverted! :smiley:

Lower one, taking higher freqs should go to chorus, while higher one, taking lower freqs, should go direct to reverb. Sorry. :slight_smile:

you stick guys make me feel bad, I can’t play bass or guitar as well as you play both at the same time. :smile:
really nice sound on this.
