Anyone own ISP beta bass preamp pedal

Keep us posted on your status on your power supply and I can guarantee you will not be disappointed in performance from this preamp pedal. You can literally get any tone from it. ISP customer support is top notch too.I had them install a separate volume pot for distortion channel to unity gain with clean channel or can dial it in as a clean boost. Not to mention it also has compression and exciter to even everything out. Perfect for what I need and can't see myself ever selling it.
Thanks. I am surveying a few of these preamp pedals to see which work best going into my Demeter Minnie 800D. Due to non-musical things going on, I won't be able to grab one of the power cords until after the first of the new year. Will post up when that happens. Happy holidays.

Finally got my Rocktron AC/AC adapter and fired up this bad boy.

Excellent Preamp! I especially like what the Clean section does. Lots of control. Extremely clean, uncolored, and whisper quiet.

I'm not so sure what I think about the Compressor/Exciter/Distortion circuits. I mean, they're fine; but, I mostly don't use that stuff. I will say that the Distortion coupled with the Compressor gets pretty close to what I recall for an over driven P into a tube amp sim. If you use that kind of tone.

Nice. I'll see how it fares going into the board tonight.
