Moog Music Forum

Franklinstower - best of luck with your music and your band. One of the reasons that its hard to reproduce the sound of a Rhodes Bass Piano is that the harmonic intervals of struck metal rods is different than most acoustic instruments and analog synth waveforms. This is especially prominent with t...

Hello everyone. I am soon to be the new owner of a vintage Vibes bass piano but want to run it through Moog for synth effects. I need Wah which I understand can be accomplished by a filter envelope but also want to be able to put some other cool effects into the bass piano. I would appreciate any li...

A Fender Rhodes Piano Bass is a pretty tall order for an analog synth (and vice versa). Two different animals. No matter how good a turkey burger is it still aint beef, and nobody wants a giant greasy 14 pound clump of ground meat on thanksgiving. I'd say that if it's a guitar + synths duo then emb...

Any Sub 37 owners please feel free to chime in on my topic. I wonder if the company could send you a sound file of its pure sound if you email them. That way, you could hear and also be able to mess about with it. Tech 21 make a pedal that is an Ampeg SVT in a box. Wonder if that has a B15 setting?...

If you give us a track with an example of the exact sound that you are looking for, someone here m...

I would say that in that particular video that at least 50% of that bass growl is coming from that Ampeg B15 the bass piano is plugged into. It's probably the most recorded classic bass amp and has a very distinctive sound. Sorry it's not much help, just wanted to point out the amp it was plugged i...

^^^^^^^ This reply is to both of you guys. Yes I am talking about the Rhodes bass piano but in this case it would be a custom made brand new one from a company called Vintage Vibes. Here is a link to the bass piano- it is set in with a bunch of their other custom built instruments but it gives you a...

Hello everyone I am a new owner of a Sub 37 tribute but I have a couple of questions for anyone that has one. I play bass keyboard in a folky jam oriented band. I had been playing on a Korg M50 but wanted a more authentic sound and it was down to a bass piano from Vintage Vibes (very expensive at 35...
