MXR bass innovations

Still nothing on the Dunlop site, but I saw the Custom Shop FET driver. As best I recall, that pedal was not there 2 days ago, so maybe they're updating the site with new stuff ?
Here's hoping they've included speaker simulation for the XLR out. I doubt it though. Ideally one of the little buttons would be a speaker sim defeat. But I think ground lift and pre/post eq are more likely. Shame, as would've otherwise been pretty perfect on paper. I could be wrong...

Dunlop just posted this. The pedal on the top right looks like script font but I've never seen a single knob silver pedal.
Edit- looks like he forgot to re-color a Phase 45/90, not sure

I'll hazard a guess based on the above picture that new preamp does not replace the M-80, since MXR have placed both on their display board. Interesting.

So a little video from from BassPlayerMag that goes over some of the basic features, not overly in-debth or explains anything we don't already know, and no soundclips either, unfortunately. Thought you guys might like to see it regardless...
Still no sign of the new preamp on the site, but here's something that wasn't there a couple of days ago... a Micro Amp + !

I had a chance to play with it at BPL and it definitely IS NOT meant as a replacement for the M80. The Bass Preamp focuses on your clean tone and is a studio quality DI/Preamp with sweepable midrange. It is an extremely detailed and articulate EQ/DI in a small footprint.
Sounds like my eden but without the built in comp and in a smaller footprint from the description you gave here
Aha. Well, bummer that it's only meant to be clean, but still a cool pedal and one that will most likely see a lot of action. The mid controls alone make it a winner over the BDDI, for me.
This could suit my needs very well. I've had the BDDI and the B7K. I liked the sansamp but flipped it because I had that big programmable one and I only used 1 tone. The b7k just didn't mesh with the sounds in my brain. I'm excited to grab one of these from the classifieds in about 6 months.
