I did it last May . It's not the more stylish way to do it but I had my reasons to do it that way Basically our singer had selfish behaviours which affected me and I understood that he wont change for anybody so I decided to go my way. I could keep it inside for more time and due the Covid...

Zoom MS60B has been in most of my setups until this year which I decided to use a Boss BF3. The second one is my Sansamp..but I decided to get another overdrive tone so I bought a Darkglass B7K

This is a good question. For almost 10 years I've been struggling with my finances so I couldn't afford any gear I wanted. I had to do whatever I could with the gear I had. Nowadays I have a decent paychek and a bonus every 6 months . I'm single and I don't have kids.. I could spend some cash...

Yes, there's a Youtube tutorial which I followed. No, that tutorial doesn't unlock anything. It adds or removes fx from the unit. I added the MS70CDR reverbs into my B1on just to try if the tutorial worked. And yes..it does. For 6 years I used my MS60B in several environments and I'll share my...

It's a matter of taste but if you're in a budget you can consider the Boss OBD3 I found it used for 65 bucks , it's built to last and if you know what are you doing with the knobs it's a very good pedal. Since I play a Darkglass B3K I don't use it live but I still keep it in a drawer to play...

Until 2020 lockdown my main tone came from a Sansamp Bass Driver Deluxe. During the lockdown I tried that Neural plugins and I fell in love with the Darkglass B7K ultra plugin, so after lockdown my main tone comes from a Darkglass B3K. And after trying several flangers , finally I can say that...

I have a Boss ME50B since late 2010 (It was a Christmas gift) and I used it live for years. Now I use other options but I still keep it at home and I use it from time to time. The "Overdrive" setting sounds pretty wild event at a low drive settings and it's almost useless. I use the "Natural"...

coming: Boss BF3 Going: Nothing

I bought it last year because I had two fly gigs and I hoped to get a similar overdrive like the one I get from my real Sansamp. I was reluctant to fly with my pedalboard or all my pedals inside my suitcase. As a drive pedal I found it useless...but as a clean preamp it's one of the best...

For sound shaping in weird rooms I guess that more than a preamp you need somekind of EQ. IMO preamps are tools to add some colour to your tone. I hope that someone corrects me if I'm wrong. Having a preamp pedal it's not a priority but it's a usefull tool to have on your board. In my case I...

My main tone is built around my Tech21 Sansamp Bass Driver deluxe. It has been my Preamp/OD/DI since December 2015. No matter the gig or the back line..I always send the signal from the Sansamp FOH and use the amp to hear me on stage. Sound guys love me. Recently I started to stack it with a...

I've tried both of them. Parallax is fine and the first time I played through it my mind was blown away... smashing,grinding and powerful tone...but to my ears it can be fatiguing after a while. Too much "wall of sound" IMO. I found B7K more "ear friendly" and powerful as well. I'd like to...

I like simple stuff and nowadays my main and favourite bass for all my metal gigs is a Fernandes Tremor 5 strings which I bought used last summer for about 250 euros 5 strings, one MM type humbucker pick up (in a centered position) and two knobs (volume and tone)

I play my passive basses through a Sansamp with a little low and high boost.. and a little of mids coming from the bass amp...so. I use two eq.

When we recorded our last album 4 years ago, our producer let me play his 1987 Valley Arts stratocaster type guitar. Even with used strings it sounded and felt awesome. I remember how confortable the neck was. I don't get the point of buying a succesful brand like that and kill her out.
