My nano is going thru a significant overhaul. Empress Comp is sold, Becos Compiq incoming, to make room for a couple of 1590a sized pedals that will now fit with a bit of a shuffle. Looking forward to it being completed.

Love them little pedals! I highly recommend the Broughton SV Boost! Always “on” for me!
By the way, the Gorila is amazing! It’s a Diamond w/more control, and a Blend!
I was curious about your thoughts on this one. Now I will have to see about getting a Gorila because I’m definitely still on a compressor search, especially one that’s got a blend.
The Diamond has always been my go to, but this has that same kind of magic, but adds variable attack and blend, which is a game changer for me!
The only issue either one raised was the noise floor, and I run noise reduction on my MS60B, and noticed it with that off, a little, but on, it cleaned it right up. And I’m running the Gorila at the end of my chain!
I am finding using a powered speaker a lot more functional for gigs these days as well. I picked up an Alto TSL215 for $150 (SDOTD) and it is the bomb.
I’m glad to hear that. I was going to wait a few and then ask you if there were any of the noise issues present at all. Was planning on buying my 15 year old son that same Zoom pedal. Might have to get one for myself.
The Zoom is a killer pedal. I think this is the fourth one I’ve owned! I use it as a preamp, noise reduction parametric eq, and slight compression right after the C4 and the SV Boost. And it’s my tuner. I think I paid $70 for it!
Yes they do and they are bitchin'

Awesome deal on that Switchcraft DI, bulletproof!! Righteous board you got there.
Are you using the DMC.micro to control the Zoom MS60B?

Thanks for the props! I’m not really changing anything on the Zoom as of yet, so no on the DMC. It’s just controlling the C4.
Thanks for the Alto info!
Just out of interest, what's your take on the Flip Bass Driver? Similar to the Blue Tube?
Never played through a Blue Tube, well maybe decades ago, and I don’t use it for more just a touch of hair. I’m using it as a sub for the Glowplug I sold, but hated the weird power source issues. It warms things up pretty well, and the para mid makes it usable for me, so I can put the warmth right where I want it.
