Won't be using this for a couple weeks, and will have a Broughton Superstack added on Monday, but this is where I am at now. Liking the tone I'm getting.

Wow, you clearly have a favorite brand!
Love the design of those pedals, with all the plugs on top for maximum pedalboard density.

They're the only one's that have stood out so far for me. Then, once I experienced top jacks, I can't go back to side jacks.
My base bass tone goes bass then slight shaping with the Submarine. I think the Super Stack will be the baseline, and the Submarine will be regulated to a very specific tone shaper. The SV-Pre will be for when I want just a bit of hair. The Messenger is sitting in as a cab sim for now.

This makes my head . . . and my bank account . . . hurt.
What, the base bass tone is bass part?
There's nothing fundamentally wrong with preamps into preamps. It's all just different flavors of filters and gain staging.
My guitar player may be interested. I'll ask him.
Sometimes I get bored and my mind wanders... then I think of these types of things... I should probably pray and read the bible instead during these moments!
It is about an inch and a half thick by 6 inches long and 3 inches wide. Very slim.
How about THAT. That's where I'm usually at. I'm interested in the EHX MICRO SYNTH settings as well. I've never gotten a satisfactory enough setting to leave it on the board and came to the conclusion that it's a better stand alone type pedal.
My keyboardist and Synthesizer guru after church played around on the mini-Moog setting.
Here is what I found, pretty much have to use A, D and G string. The E and low B just clip.
Turned down the bass knob on my bass, upped the high cut and mid cut on my Grizzly, then boom!
Great start to the sound. Here is what I set my Compressor on.

This is my finished pedal board and the newest addition of Carey Nordatrands new Starlifter Preamp DI pedal is the best Preamp and DI I've ever used.
The one feature that stands out to me on preamps like the Starlifter and the D800 is that voicing/contour control. Usually a lot of useful shaping with those.
Cool pedal!
Took it to our church today to do a run through of tones and get a idea of the preamp and DI for the house signal. This is by far the best DI tone I've ever had and I've owned and used a lot of tube signals like the Reddi, Firefly, Ampeg SVT, Genzler, Mesa Subway + and many more. The easy and use of the vintage and modern switch along with the sweepable mods is really nice.
