Yeah, the Sub Machine is amazing and it goes some way to providing me with the kind of synth tones I enjoy, especially with it's parallel upper octave option. I use it in conjunction with the LS-2 so I can still maintain a blend of my clean signal, too. Adding an envelope filter is certainly...

I have looked at the Data Corrupter and wondered if that might be a better fit for me, and also liked the sound of the Bit Commander. I primarily play rock music and use a pick, so I've had my doubts whether the more subtle voices and sensitivities of units like the C4 and FI will sit well in...

Thank you both for your input. Given that space on my board is limited, I'll probably resort to trying out a C4 first and see how I get on with it and it's Neuro editor.

Cheers, I'll aim to give the C4 or Spectrum a go and see how it sounds.

Thank you. Yeah, I've checked out all of those on YT and they all sound ace. I suppose what I'm getting at is how synth pedals users found the performance when running into a preamp pedal like the '64? The FI and C4 both sound super hi-fidelity and 'fully realised' when played on their own...

Hello everyone. I'm looking for recommendations on synth pedals I can use with the rest of my board setup (see attached image). I've got octaves, drives, fuzzes, modulations and delays all running into my Origin Effects Bassrig '64 preamp, which I have set pretty clean. At this point the signal...

Thanks for the recommendation! A quick search would suggest they're not available from any UK dealers unfortunately, but I'll keep an eye open for them.

Yeah, it's definitely got a pokey character to it's tone. I don't think that's necessarily a bad thing, but it just wasn't what I was looking for and sadly it didn't play nice with my other gain stages. I think in the right context and providing you're using one main tone all the time, the SV...

I have to say I thought the BDDI was a good preamp pedal, especially the presence control. The main reason I wanted to replace it was because I thought the pedal's gain sounded terrible and I thought the actual DI sounded a bit flat and lifeless, so the new OE offerings sounded ideal on paper...

That's a sweet setup! Yeah, I'm not keen on the '64 when the gain is set too high. 'Farty' is definitely an accurate description as far as that's concerned, but I do really enjoy the cleans I get from it and it works great with the drive pedals I use.

Hey man. Yeah, sounds like we have had a similar experience and I was surprised the SV didn't prove to be a good fit. Still, at least I know now. I love using the Plumes on bass and the two I have on my board provide my first gains stages. The first is on the op amp clipping stage and acts as...

I'm a rock/metal/punk guy and I've been playing with the '64 for a good while now. I originally intended to pick up a SV as I figured it would be better suited to my needs given the kind of music I play, but they were completely sold out everywhere at the time. I resorted to the '64 instead and...

I made a video on the current setup on my board featuring a lot of new additions. I tend to use a lot of overdrive and distortion and mix it in with my clean signal, so check it out if you're into that sort of thing. WARNING: I play with a pick exclusively and I'm aware that's completely...

Hello folks. I recently picked up a Colossus from Reverb and I'm wondering whether the unit I have is faulty. The mids control appears to be completely unresponsive no matter the setting, whereas everything else is working fine and has a notable effect on the overall tone. I'm on the verge of...

Hi there. I'm based in the UK and bought mine from PMT, although it looks like they're now out of stock. Looks like Bax Music have them...
