That's quite an endorsement! For milder dirt, I've been using a Tech 21 VT Bass since 2011. I have a Source Audio Aftershock that is capable of all sorts of dirt. I'm thinking of swapping the 4OTF for the VT and seeing how that goes. I definitely didn't need the pedal, but I couldn't resist. We're living in an amazing time for gear!

These are the pedals it replaced, I have a Magellan DI on the way to go straight to the house where I play at church, replacing my MXR bass preamp. I’ve got no complaints with any of these pedals, just prefer the Genzler products. For me they are easier to dial in the sound I want and very suitable for my applications.
Coming on 2 years without a change to my live board. The 4otf is no joke! It beat out a handful of overdrives I tried; I bought it on a whim from my bass instructor for a good deal and was mind blown. 
Magellan preamp came and just got it on the board. Can’t wait to get her fired up! Thanks @agedhorse and @Jeff Genzler for all the help!
Nice setup! This guy just showed up today.
When you get it hooked up share some pictures! I need to get some longer patch cables so I can move my di to the top of the board.
The only pedal board I have currently is one of the little Nano ones that I currently have packed with a Zoom ms-60b+, a VT Bass and 3 SA pedals. Im going to pull off the VT and one of the SAs. The 4OTF is a slightly wider pedal but I think it'll fit if I ditch those 2 pedals. So far I've just been using it on its own, and I really like it.
I'm using it by itself at church today. If we really get cooking, I might shift it into 4th and let em have it!
I get to be on team next week, first time for the Magellan DI. Looking forward to having the same sound at church as I do when I’m plugged into my 350.

I love everyone evolving their setups and bringing in more and more Genzler kit. I’m only a few short weeks away from the big rig making an appearance again and then we’re off to the races. We’ll see y’all again in October. 
Keep on keepin’ on!

I have thought about ditching my Stomp and using the Magellan Pre Pedal as well as I have a 350 (mounted on a 12-TV cab) that I use when I do gigs with an amp. I rarely do those any more but love the sound.
I use a couple effects on the Stomp so I’d need to buy stuff and redo my rig so I’m just staying with my Stomp. But I think about this all the time.

Hi Jeff. Have you offered or has there been a demand for a (matching skin and maybe a small storage compartment?) wedge to sit a straight cabinet on? I played two SLT's stacked for a few years and just got the new 212-3.

I don't need a BA 212. Really. I dont. I dont even really like them all that much.

I practice the set list at home out of my 350 and love the tone/sound, then get to church, where we go straight to the board, and be underwhelmed. I’m present but without presence. Between the 4 on the floor and this DI, I was able to ditch a few pedals.
Spector and Genz: match made in Heaven!
What i really want is to stick an BA 212 with my Genz Benz Uber Bass 2x12. I've heard that Genzler amps can drive 2 Genzler 4 ohms cabs. I wonder if that also applies to a 4 ohm Genz benz and a 4 ohm Genzler.
