Is it cool for bass?
Better than MT-2? |

I used it with one of those crappy little Drive headphone amps that plug into the guitar/bass and then right into headphones. I plugged it into the DS-1, and the played it.
As i remember, it sounded awesome. I was considering one for my current rig, but funds ran short. I'll see about it as soon as i have more.

The tone knob is interesting, I find that unless its on the absolute minimum the tone is really harsh. I've got some really nice tones using them for recording but can never make it fit with the band live, but often use one in front of my overdrive for certain parts I want to be really heavy.

| | | i love my ds-1 and to me i cant hear any significant loss of low end, and for $40 new its kind of hard to pass up
my current settings are tone- 10:30ish, dist- maxed, and level varies( kind of a preference thing) |

| | | | I also have a DS-1 (totally stock!) and also love it on bass. And really, they're cheap enough, even new, for just about everyone to have one around for those special moments...
I use it on guitar too. Settings pretty much stay on 9:00 on the tone knob and about 4:00 on the distortion knob and level to match the bypassed level.
