This was super-helpful, cheers. Never even considered stacking pedals like this. I left my JDI and ProDI off-board for that reason, never thinking I could put stuff on top of them. That will make future pedal boards so much more fun to build! Thanks!

Na, not losing your mind. I'm in the same boat really. With one of my bands, I tend to turn it off for good because there's always at least SOME overdrive going on, so the SpectraComp is more, like, getting in the way rather than adding anything to my bass's punch etc.. With the other band I...

That's what I do with the Super Two Hundred btw.. Pic from today's rehearsal: Result is a fat, slightly OD but not very distorted tone, and yeah, sorta "loose"? At any rate, just the ticket for what I need the box for with this band. (Classic Rock covers, mostly played in a punk-y way.)

I have a Super 200 question, Tim. Or rather, two: 1. The tone stack – I think / it sounds to me like it works the same as the AD200 and Terror Bass tone stacks, i.e. "flat" would be somewhere around 8-9 o'clock for Bass and Treble with Mids dimed (rather than everything at noon). Correct? 2...

Shirt arrived. I think I have a new favorite gig shirt. Alas, without the cigarette I think, could come in the way of playing. Anyways, hi! Hope your Pride Month is working out well. Things are sorta crazy over here at the moment, we had a mob booing Posey Parker out of a public speech, which...

Holy *expletive*, cheers! Yes, I agree, "Giza Butler" is even better. Holy *expletive again*. Thank you, very much indeed.

Don't know about you guys and gals, but I've been running Sleep's "The Siences" on heavy rotation, like, 24/7, for the best part of the past three months. Don't know who here put me onto the Sleep Car of the Doom Train, but whoever you are – cheers. It's so shaging great.

That was a Pedaltrain Metro 16, PSU a TrueTone CS6 with an adaptor cable / polarity reversal for the Bass Butler. Finding a patch cable that fit the plug was actually a challenge; the one the TS6 shipped with was too tight. In the end I used the one that came with my Diamond Bass Comp.

I'm so sorry. It's such a common term here I didn't consider it might not be elsewhere. Thanks for clarifying it, Flamingo! :)

Veya is on Redbubble as "artbyveya", so, yes. It's where our Swiss band gets much of its merch printed, too, so hitting that button was quite easy for me, and delivery to the EU should be no issue. I got the bi-flavoured version, naturally, but she has almost all of the flags covered.

Happy Pride! It's a mixed bag so far on my end, but I hope yours is happier. Pros: Close friend finally felt safe enough to come out as enby, which was quite something because I've known about it since the late 90s and they simply … couldn't come out, even to their own partner previously...

Oi, keeping fingers crossed! Nice setlist btw.

I most often use a Damnation Audio MBD-2 for my dirt needs. I play a pretty dirty sound as my base tone to begin with, the MBD-2 is used with the +20 dB switch "on" for, well, more dirt. I run it with pretty high Depth settings, i.e. quite a lot of the lower frequencies distorted, but with the...

Very short update on the Master Effects Super Two Hundred: It dooms. That is all.

Many dives around here closed down during and shortly after the pandemic. I was wondering how they kept going for so long before that, and well, mostly they didn't, really. Covid was just the last straw for many dive bars, regular bars, restaurants etc. here in Switzerland. Those bar people...
