Anyone tried this yet? Looks cool. See it Here Me? One good bass tone is fine for me so a standard BDDI is all I need, but if you are soloing alot or playing many different styles of songs, it would be a useful tool.

There's gotta be a rational reason for it - and that seems pretty rational to me.

| | Registered User Endorsing Artist:Orange Amps, EBS FX, Ernie Ball, Fender Bass Guitars | | | | | yo i've got the more basic programmable version and i've found that i've only really used one tone from it! I got it found a sound i liked and kept it!
I found, for my application of this with my current bands and work is that I got three slight variations of essentially the same tone. Although that might just be me trying to make something I like sound better.... I suppose Ideally you would set up a channel for clean, mild grit and full on gain/od
I just found full on drive a bit clanky and the clean well.. I'm not a fan of really clean tones!! lol
One advantage of it is that if you swap between active and passive basses you can assign one channel with a boost in volume to match the other active bass perhaps!? |

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Oct 2007 Location: Portland, OR | | So will the next upgrade that includes the mid be called the Bass Driver Double Deluxe Direct Input?
Or BDDDDI?
I'm just curious how many D's they can cram into the name.  |

or velcro a RBI to your pedal board.
