I had the original Subway preamp +, it was really great but the form factor was a little too large for my pedal board. I am glad to see that Mesa has changed that. As far as sound, does the new version sound the same as the original or have enhancements been made there as well?

Can this new mesa preamp patch into the effects return and drive the power amp?

Just curious…why do you want the Aftershock back? I love that pedal as well.

If you purchase lifetime access you can continue to access the materials through the weekly emails. IMO...lifetime access is required as the material covered is challenging and completing the course within a two year window would be tough ( it was for me)

Kmobass, I signed up for Joe’ 2 year bass mastery and learned a ton. It’s very structured and requires a lot of time and attention to get most out of it. I also purchased many of Joe’s books while not required, augment the curse material nicely. I am actually now going back to review the course...

Hello! I used IRs from 3 Sigma for my EUB. Have not experimented much with them but they seem pretty good

Agree hub is more future proof, but you may only need one midi adapter, if you go that route, as you will probably only need to control the c4 during gigs. I have these pedals and the Atlas is more set it and forget it IMO. Both great pedals though!

My poly tune crapped out. New battery, full reset, and still does not work?

QQ…Atlas before or after the EQ2?

Does your amp have a di out? Also you may want to consider a bass preamp with a DI out. Several off the ability to set the volume of the DI out independently of the 1/4 “ making it straight forward to run your pedal board into the front jack of your amp and send the DI to front of house at...

My SA wish list item has nothing to do with the pedals. It’s more with the user documentation. I feel that a lot of the barriers to entry can be solved by taking a more use case driven approach in the SA documentation. For example SA should release a step by step guide on how to replicate the...

Ok I have gotta jump in! Firstly, congratulations to all of my fellow retirees! Not always easy to do but we made it! To those thinking about it …highly recommended IMO. Here is my messy Music room off of the Master. Used to be the baby room (when we had babies…no more of that ;)). Not very big...

Agreed there are so many free instruments and effects out there that are really great! My suggestion would be to use those and get an understanding on what you really need and then upscale those areas to paid products. Even with Native instruments you can setup their free offering which is quite...

I put Delano pickups in my 5 Sire P. Sounds fantastic, easy install

I bought the Laney Digbeth and have been really impressed with the tubey settings. Very usable and not expensive used. A value purchase for sure!
