*To me* I wouldn't bother, you already have a tube preamp going on.
I don't use mine at all when I decide to bring a tube amp to a gig.

I don't use mine at all when I decide to bring a tube amp to a gig.
I've never heard MORE make anything sound worse. I love the pure tone of an Ampeg PF-50T, and MORE just adds a little extra love to the equation. It does something more than what Slampegg offers you, and can compliment other pedals in a satisfying way.
In considering this some more, the issue could be I can't crank the More gain up, as my home practice volume is pretty low, only me, my board, amp, and computer with 2 small speakers and small sub running The Amazing Slowdowner.
Putting the MORE in front of a distortion/overdrive pedal really "opens" it up tonally. If anyone hasn't tried it yet, give it a try.
Has anyone tried an octave in the loop of a Greenhouse? I’m curious about the sound with the octave’s output maxed.
I'm about to on Wednesday!
My Greenhouse arrives tomorrow and I’m very intrigued by the possibilities. I’ll let you know.
Ok I have been playing with an octave in the loop, after, with different gain settings. Not a bad sound in the bunch. To my ears it looses top end when maxing out the gain of the octave but... it does this warm wooly effect I'm digging
Ok @Sushi Box FX for V2 of Greenhouse, ability to use an expression pedal for vol so we can pop pedals on off INSIDE the loop!
Also footswitch bypasses the tube stages so you can still have the pedals in the loop in your custom but bypass the tubes (sometimes I would like that when active...)
Did i mention how much i love the Greenhouse?
What octave pedal? If you don't mind me asking.Ok I have been playing with an octave in the loop, after, with different gain settings. Not a bad sound in the bunch. To my ears it looses top end when maxing out the gain of the octave but... it does this warm wooly effect I'm digging

3 Leaf octabvre
I just picked it up 2nd hand at retail price. I've heard good things about it. Its... fine...
I like the sound of that Darkglass one the Kaamos? Maybe I can trade if this one doesn't grow on me
So your signal chain is bass -> FX1 -> Slampegg -> Finally v2, is that correct? Is there anything else in there?
And I'm sure you've already done this, but just in case, on the Finally v2 make sure the HPF is turned off.
Hi - even though I love the Neptunium, I'm thinking I would benefit more from a Finally. But I see the Finally v3 is on back-order.
I will need to sell the Neptunium locally in the UK to cover the cost, so I was wondering what sort of timescale there is before the Finally would be available?

This is sooooo enticing. A couple years back I've started restricting my impulse buying after a few too many unnecessary purchases. Now if I impulse shop for a product and put it in the shopping cart, I leave the tab open on my phone browser to test if I keep coming back to it for three consecutive days. If not, I don't want the product enough to justify the purchase. Pretty sure this will fail that test. Or pass, depending on how you look at it.
Is the optional PS already euro compatible nowadays?
Literally as of yesterday, yes. My power supply supplier had only ever provided me US plug supplies and dragged their feet when I asked for international swappable plugs, so I found a new supplier and the first shipment showed up yesterday.This is sooooo enticing.

Have you tried running the Finally v2 by itself to make sure there isn't something just going wrong on that one?
I said I was tempted before, and I am still...
Leaning towards a More, curious on whether it could possibly replace one of the 2 basic tube preamp I currently use respectively first and last in my signal chain, or perhaps my EP Booster clone, that all are currently always on units in my setup.
Seems the tariff war has yet to engulf electronic/musical equipment, as far as I can Google my way to, so the extra cost still seems within reason even if living in Europe (I mean the base price of these pedals are really reasonable, compared to what you actually get).
If I go through with this, on which I am not certain yet, just for clarification, would it then be possible to get you to use different tube brand in it than you use currently?
I am certain that JJ tubes are great, but I have a personal preference for EHX.

Nope, I get wholesale pricing on tubes because I buy them in bulk, and I will not be placing a bulk EHX tube order so there would be an added cost on my end. Swapping the tubes is not difficult, but I don't offer alternative brands.
