EHX Holy Stain used for bass?

Does anybody use this? If so, wouldja mind detailling how each effect sounds on bass? How's the low end loss? Samples, maybe?

The original review by Sir Edward V:

SEV's EHX Holy Stain Review

And a second opinion:

EHX Holy Stain

Now you owe me one.

Man, it's been a while since I've failed this hard on the ol' search function bit. Sorry and much thanks.

Yeah I do owe you one. We can call it a life debt and roll like Han and Chewbacca. Or something.

It's a strange combo of effects. Reverb, PS and trem

All right, you're Chewbacca, then.

Guitarists rarely use chorus nowadays. It's all reverb and tremolo and divebombing. Methinks it has something to do with the stigma of bad 80's hair metal and glam rock.

I was actually hoping to use this pedal in a more shoegaze sort of musical context...My Bloody Valentine, Slowdive, etc. The effects the pedal houses are all popularly used in the genre.

I really like mine. It's far more useful than I initially thought it would be. The pitch shift setting is pretty cool when you set the pitch at unison.

I'm looking for some samples of this pedal on bass. The ones on SEV's review have been removed. Could someone help?

Here's a sample I did of the fuzz trem combo when it was combined with a separate blender. It sounds pretty neat I think.

I have a Holy Stain and i use it for a droney Shoe Gazey band. It;s awesome. I think i use the Pitch Shift w/ an expression pedal the most and the Warm/Fuzz dirt setting dialed in. I do like the reverb and the Tremelo on it also, i just don't use them as much as the Pitch Shift.
