Geddy Lee Sansamp Pedal!

Aren't the 80 Hz the choice frequency of the drum kick ?
Well maybe not in a RUSHy kind of band , right ?

I've heard lower for the kick, like 40-50 Hz

Yup, HPF before the clipping section. Makes the drive tighter and more guitar like, with the expectation that you'd recover the lows by blending in the deep channel and/or boosting the bass knob. Quite useful for high output basses with a lot of low end output, to stop things getting too fuzzy.

Yeah, I find it cuts too much low end for my setup. It would be cool if it was a two stage button, with one option not smothering the bottom off so hard.

That said, I find I don't really need it, so you are likely right about the high low end output basses.

I tend to agree with this chart as a good average range:

 

[Spidey2112]

That's actually a pretty good idea. You might want to patent that.

I'm on it.

Depends on the room and PA, but generally that's what I boost, but more important is that 2k level. Tone over volume is key.

Yes also

To me 80 Hz is the boomy kick in the chest

I want a programmable YYZ already - so many cool tones in this box, and I want at least a few of them at the click of a switch!

 

[Jantelagen]

Huh, I was thinking is was probably a global HPF set low at something like 40 Hz to tighten up the low end, not the overdrive (which certainly already has at least one pole of HPF). I do wish Tech 21 would provide these details. I don't have one of these yet but am looking to try one at some point.

Yep. If I'm not mistaken, in the Andrew Barta interview he explains more about how the YYZ is responsive to level of attack as heavier attack is a part of Ged tone. The Tight is also there to accommodate players with softer attack not sound farty. When Tight is engaged mix lows back in from the Deep side

The tight switch is the key to how I get my metal bass tone out of the YYZ. With the tight switch on an playing with a heavy hand you can get some serious grit!

Nice fookin' rig there!

 

[12bass]

Heavy/filthy YYZ clips please!

 

[Felix1776]

I'd love to hear some heavy tones!

I just got an email Sweetwater letting me know mine won't be shipped until the end of June. Sadness!

 

[WallaceSnr]

Has anyone in Europe received one of these yet?
The wait is killing me..................................

 

[SteveC]

They are non existent in the US at this point as well.

Yea, just talked to my Sweetwater rep, Matthew, and he told me first week in July.

 

[SteveC]

Obviously they didn’t anticipate the initial response to this pedal.
