Noodling with my MXR M288 bass octave deluxe pedal with a little talk about what I usually play when improvising over a minor tonality. I'm playing a Fender Precision 70's bass with flatwound strings I'm "babysitting" for a friend.
Regarding "fret noise":
Its the acoustic sound of the bass strings you hear getting picked up by the microphone, im playing with a very low volume on the amp, hence the string noise

  • that octaver seems to work reall well, I have realized a lot that is technique though. emphasis of fundamental over harmonics in his marlowe's playing here make the octaver track well despite it being a totally analog octave pedal.

  • Hello, cool video! do you have bossa nova lessons? thanks alot!

  • well that octaver sounds shit... sorry marlowe

  • Hi, what gear do u use? (amplifier, speakers,...) would love to have this question answered. I'm looking for some good speakers to use with my laptop, and some kind of studioPod. what do you recommend me?

  • that sounds way better than a guitar with an octaver. imo a guitar sounds better with a pitch shifter

  • teach me teach me....we like jazz

  • The octaver is one of my staples when I want the crowd to know when its time to FEEL it!

  • god bless u man

  • @MarloweDK Its awesome! :). Your playing and talking is so inspiring!

    I've just looked at your video with the MXR envelope filther. Im currently searching the market for envelope filthers and octavers. Do you recommend the MXR envelope filther? - is it your favorite, or is there anything you like more?

    When it comes to octavers, I'm currently facing a choice between the MXR octaver and the EBS OctaBass - have you any experiences with the EBS? Which one would you choose?
