    The OC-2 dilemma, again

    I just purchased a second hand Subsonic that I'm looking very much forward to receiving! Did you get a chance to compare running it on 9 and 18 volts? 😉

    Broughton Audio Super Thread

    NPD! So far I'm pretty excited about the Broughton RFE! It seems that it was just what I needed to control the deep lows and get a bit more clarity in the mids and highs! :cool:👌 (Still experimenting with settings. I just received the RFE Yesterday - so I know the settings in the photo are a bit...

    Hey guys I just wanted to ask a simple question that might not have such a simple answer? I have my new UA hooked up to my board with a couple of pedals in front and a JDI after. I have come to the realize that the output volume is quite dependant on what I hook the JDI up to. I know that it is...

    I haven't tried the previous versions. But the relay switch is lovely to operate and not making any clicking noises! The default behavior on power up (pedal on/off) is configurable by holding the switch in while powering up the pedal.

    Sorry for the delayed answer. I meant to answer your question sooner but got distracted by the UA and the groove! 😁 The relay switching defaults to "pedal on" on power cycling. But at the same time it immediately goes to "true bypass" on power loss (I guess to be able to keep playing if the psu...

    Hey all NPD! Just a quick note from me upon receiving the UA in the mail this morning! I was kind of shocked that standard shipment only took 9 days from Mr. Sushi and all the way to Denmark / EU. I was fearing the worst and imagining having to wait for like a solid month or so! Now comes the...

    @Sushi Box FX - out of pure interest and following a read up on the thread regarding the UA - could you comment on the latest Summer 2024 iteration that I just purchased. What voltage is it running the tube at? There has been different voltages through the iterations? Right?

    That's a definite "Special Edition" right there! Put them up for sale and just wait and see - people will definitely be ordering them regardless of the white background. Number them with a no. x/xx number series (on the bottom with your signature) - and they'll be gone in a short while! Since...

    Thank you everyone for chiming in. Very useful advice and definitely just what I was hoping for. A special thx to s_wood for the link to the thread about the Fender-Alembic tonestack.

    Hi guys Thx for a super useful forum with lots of good advice. I'm a bass player that is looking to buy my first Sushiboxfx pedal. I need a preamp for my small bass board. I have a pretty good Radial JDI so the pedal does not need to have a DI. I have heard loads of good things about the...

    Genzler Magellan or Bergantino Super Pre or....

    @Wattson - just a quick shot of my board. As you mentioned - the Genzler Pre doesn't have an onboard compressor (thankfully - since most onboard compressors suck anyway!). I do have both a tuner (Peterson StroboStomp Mini - that actually works fine outside!), comp (Becos CompIQ Mini Pro)...

    Genzler Magellan or Bergantino Super Pre or....

    I'll chime in with another recommendation for the Genzler Magellan Pre. I haven't tried out the Super Pre from Bergantino. I'm sure it's a great piece of kit! What I absolutely love about the Genzler Pre is that it is totally quiet! I haven't tried anything else this quiet and "Hifi". It's a...

    Sire M Series Bass Club

    I use DR Pure Blues - they feel great and sound even better! And they are made for use op to 37" lenght as standard - I string through body with no issues at all. I use 45-125 since I find the intonation with the .125 low B to work better than the .130 gauge. It is this set that I usually order...

    I must say that I don't agree on your "con" about 4x10 vs 8x10. I find that there is a HUGE difference in the sound! I've only just gotten my Bass Station - but I'm already in LOVE with the sound! ❤️ Thank you for doing the review - was very helpful for me in making the decision to get one...

    The new knobs arrived today. I managed to order the new OEM Sire "Modern Black Aluminum" knobs from Thomann. They fit perfectly on my M7 2019. The great thing about these knobs are that they are press on - same as the OEM plastic knobs (except for the lower part of the dual stacked ones that is...

    Hi @jazzbass_5 I know for at fact that the M7 will fit in this "Gator GC-Bass ABS Case" from Thomann: https://www.thomannmusic.com/gator_gcbass_pvc_case.htm Thomann also recommends this case for the M7 Here is mine in the case:

    Sire Bass Club!

    Hi guys! :hyper: Just received my new M7-6 and did the initial setup. I just have to say WOW! After about an hour of playing time it already seems kind of weird to move back to my M2-5. The neck just seems tiny on the "old" bass. Kind of crazy that you can get used to that kind of change so...

    I REALLY like the Becos Comp. It works beautifully and has loads of adjustability! It also is VERY quiet - it is an always on effect for me. The Becos can be ordered directly from https://becosfx.com in Romania (which is within EU - so no import tax in Europe). Just takes a while to get it - I...

    More or less done with my first ever pedalboard. Decided to do a Nano board with a few selected pedals to start with. Quite satisfied with the tones so far! That Octamizer really packs a punch. And spiced up a bit with the VMT makes for killer synth tones! Also really digging the CompIQ Mini Pro...

    I also use the Polytune 3 mini. It tracks really fast and has both normal and strobe tuning (which is VERY accurate!). Plus on top of that you get a very good buffer for free to use as you please. The tuner has selectable tuning also when it is not muting the signal. That means that you can look...

    Worship Bass Pedalboards

    Looks really nice and simple! Sometimes the key to a good tone is to keep it simple - less clutter in the signal path. You only run one output direct to FOH. Does this mean that you don't run an amplifier on stage? So you get your monitor sound in return from FOH to a stage monitor? Or do you...

    Older EBS effects any good?

    Hey guys, I've been offered 2 older (might be 1'st gen) EBS pedals for 150$ combined. It's the Octabass and Multidrive. They seem to be "pre true bypass". I've heard mixed things about them. For some reason people seem to think that they don't last? Should I pull the trigger or look elsewhere...

    Since I don't think I will be using the saturation circuit on the Stella - what would be the reason to choose the Stella over the already pretty powerful Mini? Stella has optional manual timings and a tilt-eq?But really? For almost double the price of the Mini?
