RE: inputing bass

[Matthias Grob <matthias@grob.org>]

for a HW solution:

EBS octabass works reasonably even with a polyphonic input (several 
strings played)

Paradis PolyBass is perfect since it octaves 4 strings separately. 
its now available on a small PCB that fits into the guitar - but it 
takes a polyphonic PU

for a SW solution:

Chopitch slowes the note down, so there are no glitches, and it does 
not just add a lower frequency as the others mentioned, but tunes the 
whole sound an octave down.

I use PolyBass constantely to fill the bass range and for soft bass 
lines (as you hear in all of my music since 1985)
and Chopitch for strong and jazzy bass lines. It also does very deep 
synth like bass which no bass guitar can do!

by the way: did you realize the new language trend? Paul is speaking 
of a loop station - not meaning a Roland device, but any tool that a 
looper would use...
