I've gone a little crazy over the past couple of months w/ effects. I've bought, sold, traded, swindled, and schemed. I've finally settled down. At least for a week or two.

Bass>Tuner>Zvex Wooly Mammoth>Fulltone Bass-Drive>Sansamp programmable>Amp

Question about my signal chain^^...I just got a compressor (aphex punch factory), and im not sure the best place for it. Any suggestions?
 
I had the bass exciter, and i did put it last in the chain. Cool pedal, but I ended up replacing it with the sansamp. Anyway, I tried the compressor last, and it didn't sound very good. It considerably reduced my overall volume. When I compensated with the volume on the compressor it got very noisy when i wasn't playing. I guess i'll try it first when i get more time to mess around.

can the sansamp give u the same "bigness" that the bass exciter does?

Basically yes, but it has a slightly different sound. It gives me the same type of bass boost but it seems to have more the mid-range...which I really like. I got the programmable one to replace the bass exciter for more versatility.
 
I do not think that Im going to be adding anything else but so far

Sweet board, how do you like that compulator?

I was torn between that and the aphex punch factory. I ended up getting the aphex from a local shop, that way I could return it if i didn't like it. So far i think its pretty great.
 
I have not had the Compulator long enough to Gig with it at this point, but Im finding myself missing it when it is not on. The best description I have heard so far about these is that when it is not on is when you will notice what the pedal really does.
The effect is sublte for me .... a tightening up of the notes being played ... especially for active instruments, the sound becomes better defined ....
at this point I just leave it on all the time, So to answer your question I am liking it alot :)
If you like Ill let you know what I think once I have a chance to record some tracks and Gig with it.
