    Jad Freer tube preamp pedal for 2026?

    thank you so much for replying, I actually hoped you would, and thanks a lot for the fairness of your judgement ! I use More's gain, but could deal without it and put the extra gain elsewhere. however I also feel it is a bit of a bet for quite a price to hope that it will better feel my...

    Jad Freer tube preamp pedal for 2026?

    Can’t make my mind, the few short clips sounds appealing, in particular the pretty lows but in my use case I don’t have much of it : I’d consider it for the 3 higher strings of a 6 string bass (3 lowest routed separately) to « tube » my Capo. My sushi box More does so, but improvement is...

    not sure if it should be called a preamp or boost or whatever, but More does. took me a bit of time to get why sometimes it killed my sound, sometimes it made it killer, and sometimes the effect was subtle :laugh:

    Very easy. here are 3 possible excuses that come to mind: 1) convince yourself that it could replace both a "tubey sound providing" pedal and your current compressor, thus making the purchase a financial benefit (then, just keep them all) 2) realize 2 comps are better than one (one for...

    the real question you're asking yourself is: which one will go first in the signal chain ?

    Thanx for the feedback ! would you say that it saturates "earlier" than More ? @Sushi Box FX , to reiterate (sorry with all the questions !), and also: did you try it with an 12AY or 12AU tubes ?

    Thanx to all who responded to my questions ! kept thinking in loop about it and changed opinion 10 times a day (If I was paid minimal wage for the time spent thinking about it all I would have enough cash to buy all sushi boxes I’m attracted to, but I still feel on both sides on the fence...

    been hesitating / resisting to run a bunch of Sushi-flavored tests to push the mojo of my starship board a bit further. Hesitation relates to import fees and the impossibility of choice, therefore I would take a few at once (causing a lot more financial hesitation). Hence a few related...

    curious aobut this too ! Watching the review, for some reasons, triggered me into testing Nobelium's XLR output with the jack output going into the DI output of the Capo (bypassing everything in between in and out). The test was conclusive: I'm getting the pedalnetic miniDI things to use the 2...
