Origin Effects BassRig Ampeg B15 Fliptop recreation

Do you have any plans to add the "Cabsim off" setting to the other Bassrig pedals in the future? That has been my only hesitation to the Super Vintage. I am a big proponent of the Ampeg 810 and its boutique counterpart the Bergantino NV610 that I've played for years but sometimes want for a more direct tone- of course I can use the Amp Out for recording to get this, but I love the added versatility of the switch on the Fifteen at least in theory.
This. I hope the DI switch options of the B-15 become standard on the SV and BF.
 
Well I've ordered a Bassrig Fifteen! Features and sound fit pretty much what think I've been wanting as a direct to board/interface amp replacement/alternative.

This has come up in conversation internally many times, especially as we decided to add the feature to the BASSRIG Fifteen (thanks to customer feedback and Philip Conrad assisting in the support of that). That said, we don't currently have any schedule for changing the Super Vintage and '64 Black Panel.

So it's on our radar as a possibility, but we don't currently have any plans in place for it. That may or may not change as we watch the response to the BASSRIG Fifteen, start seeing feedback and how people end up using the pedal. It's not an inconsiderable amount of work to implement. We'd also need to figure out how to navigate introducing a minor revision to an otherwise unchanged product. But we'll see.

Yes I understand it’s a bit awkward to previous customers when a tiny update happens and they feel a bit put out by it too! I have a feeling I’ll be using the cab-sim 90% of the time on the Fifteen, but we’ll see
 
I feel like an 800RB pedal isn’t as difficult to “get right” as an analog tube emulator since the pedal and amp are both going to be using some sort of transistor clipping. I could be wrong though. Getting tube clipping sounding right using transistors is definitely a feat and I feel like Origin is doing it pretty dang well
 
I would love to hear some thoughts on anyone who can run the Super Vintage through the B15 cab sim. Same goes for the Bassrig 64 Black Panel. I love 15s personally. It's just the default sound in my brain for most things - I bet I would prefer the B15 sim comparped to the Bassrig 64 2x15. That was the weak link of that pedal for me. Just didn't love the cab sim. And I like cab sims.

“Classy studio bass tones”

I’m guessing a Neve or La2a pedal. Any other ideas?
 
Thank you. I've had the Plex several times actually. It is a good pedal that could be a GREAT pedal if it received the updates that Robert Gallien promised. I'm surprised with so many switching to ampless setups that there isn't more emphasis on the Plex? But GK are at the end of the day an amplifier company.
I haven't tried the ME or the Dicosimo pedals but I am aware of them. I really just like Origin Effects layouts, quality,support etc.
Thanks again!

Was weak today and ordered one. Not even sure that’s exactly what I need as I have always leant towards the SVT vibe, but the various videos have sold me on it. I hope I’ll like it, if not it can always go back. They’re pretty much sold out in the UK at the moment so the demand is high!

Since you're in the mood of taking requests, how much of a pain would it be to add a headphone out that uses the DI output?
