All the way to mute according to Hamish. I've never tried it. But I use mine as a boost
.
Nope, that's the "taller"enclosure. It's just taller than normal for that footprint.
Found an original mini All Things Equal for sale. Super excited to get it!!
I've threatened to upgrade to the new one, but I'm still quite happy with the old small one. Much easier to take in a suitcase on a plane.
Jimmy, I had read about you getting yours a while back. Peaked my interest. My main motivation is that my basses are higher output. My Acoustic Image amp clips with them and it doesn't have a pad switch for the input. With the pedal I can lower the output to get the most out of my amp. I can also use it to mute my signal on gigs if I want. I can also set one channel as a boost. I can also set each channel separately for two different basses. I mean....seriously. How can I be so jazzed about such a tiny pedal?
Ya, and boost pedals are what I consider business pedals and they don't get me excited under normal circumstances, but I get a lot of use out of my ATE. I do have my previous clean boost which was really good as well though a more traditional design...HBE Bajo Mos...but its biggest claim to fame was the artwork:
Hamish makes killer pedals but he'd really have to step it up in the artwork department to beat this
The UK is perfect for the small board for the band. All wired in now, loving the Utility Knife and Dispatch Master combo, especially with a touch of 5th Gear. Cali, Secret P and Studio 1 are always on, the rest are on/off in various combinations using the programmable switcher. Fun
That is a nice board - compact, comprehensive, and neatly laid out. Do you mind telling what cabling and connectors you're using?

Thanks! Just George L's .155 cable and his right angle plugs (Welcome To George L's). It's fairly easy to get in the UK so I imagine it's also easy to track down in the US too.
I'm really liking it myself (sorry to cut in). It's been easy to work with and saves weight. You can use the cable with solder and pancakes as well. They fit great on a Boss ES-5, and easily on the fifth Gear V2.
I really like them too. It's easy to cut (sharp knife and wooden board) to length and although they are not the lowest profile plugs these days they are good enough for me. I always test them when I put them together with a cable tester - never had one go bad on me yet.
Here's my nano board sporting a couple Southampton specials. Now if only they would make an Ictineo with fifthgear gain circuit and built in DI.
Oh, and a Diamond clone in a smaller enclosure would be nice too.

Very nice! I'm afraid my board is always going to a disheveled mess compared to these

@johnk_10 Thanks. I should have been more specific. Would love a smaller BCP-1 config.
Is that the same as their bass comp though? Is there much of a distinction between their bass comp and normal comp?
