The tuner can go first or last - tracking will probably be a little better if it goes first, but as Spaz writes, it will mute the whole board if last (also the noise from engaged OD's). But it doesn't matter much with so few pedals, and splitting the signal is IMO totally unnecessary. As to...

I'm Doom! By far the most dynamic and well-sounding fuzz I've played. It has instantly bumped my Oxide (which is btw also a bad-ass fuzz pedal), and though I haven't tried it with a drummer yet, I'm sure it will work out great. Nice work!

The Bullet Slugs are also a very good option. They are just about 100% idiot proof (I chose them for that reason), they never fail and have very low capacitance (=good sound). Downside is that the hex key fittings tend to wear out, so it might not be the best choice if you rearrange a lot.

Don't know about "moronic boss hate", since I really can't make any sense of the notion of "hating" a stompbox. It's just music gear, so try and relax. I've had good experiences with other Boss pedals, which didn't have the same problem, and I believe there are great differences between the...

Korg DT10 (discontinued, but good)

Yes, it does. At least if it (as I've been told) is the same buffer as the RC2. I have taken the RC2 in and out of the chain many times in order to examine this and have compared it to other buffers. I've found that it IS a tone killer. The problem is not so much that it cuts a bit of highs, but...

New member here! I just got Enabled and it sounds insanely good! I've always thought my SWR California Blonde had a pretty good headphone out, and maybe it does, but this is just way, way beyond. Thanks for a great piece of gear - I'm looking very much forward to try out the DI!

I'd say run the ValveDrive clean with other dirt pedals in front of it. A Tung Sol reissue is a great tube for making a preamp out of the ValveDrive. I have an IE Oxide and a Rodenberg 728b (and also a BMC, a wah/volume, a delay, a bitcrusher and a compressor) before the ValveDrive, and it's...

No one has mentioned Steve Swallow yet?! He played a P-bass in the late 70's and most of the 80's. I consider him the greatest bass guitar player of all time.

Thanks guys, I guess there's no way around getting enabled in the near future.

+1 on Iron Ether Nimbus, it's a beauty both in looks and sound. With the delay I find that the most important thing is to determine whether you need a tap tempo switch or not. Analog or digital surely makes a difference, but the tap issue can turn out to be more important. I'd suggest you get a...

Hi, I don't qualify for membership, but I'm thinking about getting the Enabler. I have little doubt that the headphone amp and EQ will be great, but how about the DI? Has anyone here used it for live and/or recording and did it sound just good or REALLY good? And in case someone has both, shall...

Haven't tried other tube bass pedals, but EBS Valvedrive is excellent for the purpose. A low gain setting and a Tung Sol reissue makes it glow. I'd say go between bass and amp.

Depends on the desired flexibility. I don't think that the pedal train-type of board can be beat if you wan't the most flexibility, but another good solution will be a flat board with a row of pedals in front and a raised podium for a second row of pedals behind it, that can cover/contain a...

I've got the Palmer Flanger. It's good built quality with the essential knobs and a very transparent signal. Palmer is definitely worth checking out. Downside is that the pedals are big and heavy.
