Hi,

not new to the list but been out for a "while" :-) 

I am having fun with Ardour since last few months and wondering what do you use for bass guitar on your channel strip.

For eg. I am currently using ACE fluid synth + TamgampX 

Is there any plugin I am not aware of? 

Hi

I've written lately a Bass Fuzz Pedal:

The Rumor is pure, nasty growling bass fuzz pedal, with bold out-front presence, and cutting articulation.

Maybe you'll have some fun with that.
