I'm a little curious about some of the bass preamps but I don't have one yet. I've been eyeing the Super 200 in the classifieds but I don't really actually know much about the AD200b anyway, so it'd just be more of me trying a different flavor of preamp anyway.

got the monorail boards last night they work but need a bit of tweaking because i made a stupid mistake.
more super400 boards should be getting here this week. again. stupid mistakes on my end.
when a builder tells you that he made a stupid mistake on a board, that should tell you to wait till the second batch gets built. IMO of course.Similar for the Super 100? I have been checking daily for it to say in stock
at least he caught it! haha. There are some makers that don't do the proper QC and testing I have found.

I don't think I made a "mistake" on the Super 100. it works and sounds legit. I'm just not happy with the amount of background hiss in the pedal.
the stupid mistake on the Monorail was that i spec'd one of the caps to be 4.7nF instead of 4.7uF. simple matter of swapping the part out.
As for the Super 400, don't do circuit design before having your morning coffee, that's all i can say lol. DHL should be delivering the new boards today or tomorrow. Should get around the verifying them by the end ofthe weekend.
@Sensei Tim
I'm interested in the concept for your pedals, but I'm not familiar with a lot of the bass amps you model your pedals after. (Don't worry-- I do know what an SVT is.)
Do you have a good list of recordings that would get me a feel for the amps you model after? For example, I'm sort of interested in the Super 200 in the classifieds right now, but I can't find demos of the pedal and only the amp. I don't know any recordings where the amp was used, so I'm a little stuck at the whim of Youtube gear demos.
I appreciate that this is a broad and weird question and I could easily just click through and google all the amp names, but I guess there's value in hearing it from the horse's mouth, so to speak.

In case anyone missed it, Monorail is on preorder as of this morning.
I don't know how fast I was on the trigger, but gotta be in the top few orders

We're lucky to have folks like @Sensei Tim and @Sushi Box FX posting here. I wish more builders were as transparent with the design and troubleshooting process.
Sounds like you need to buy more pedals until you have it memorizedYou only beat me because I didn't know the ccv nber from my card off of the top of my head

I actually did ... Literally from all the music gear. Then we got a new card with a new number ....Sounds like you need to buy more pedals until you have it memorized
This right here. It's no coincidence that I've bought multiple pedals from both of these guys as well.
@moon-bass - somehow I broke space-time and quoted you before you posted your comment
