Oh jeez.  Have you got the actual dimensions of the rehoused unit please.  I don’t have much space in my board…..  but…

123.5mm x 98.5mm x 45mm.

Funnily enough I saw him pop up on the FBass insta feed the other day. Didn't know whether to laugh or what.

It’s definitely intended humour. This clip made me pee myself (you’ll know which bit):

Any Donny Benét fans in here, I reckon you’ll dig this album that just came out today by an artist with a similar vibe, both musically and with the tongue-in-cheek humour. 

Another smooth transaction with Gavin, this time with him as the buyer. I listed a pedal and tagged him and within an hour he agreed to buy and paid. All easy with prompt and friendly communication. Many thanks. 

In case this weren’t obvious, as this is a MIDI device, you can trigger it with anything that sends MIDI note data, so that even includes footpedal controllers such as the Morningstar stuff.

I'm no Ed Friedland, but here's my attempt at a review of the Noble for those who are curious. Recorded examples with jazz and P bass with various EQ settings, overview of features/specs and honest feedback from using it 'in the field' over the last 18 months:

Examples of the Noble in a full band mix (signal path was bass>Noble>desk, nothing else):

Great tracks!

Also am now listening to your EP too and really enjoying it.

I would never think to put compressor after envelope.

 

Why would you want to tame those peaks and valleys?

 

Give the envelope a nice even tone from the comp, no?

You still get the frequency sweeps but without big volume spikes at high resonance. It can be very useful for taming some of the wilder filters out there such as the Fwonkbeta, Enigma and MF-101.

I had one for quite some time. In fact I think I’ve owned two. I used the Nik West “born again compressor” and loved it when set to about 10-11 o’clock.

Dammit, might be forced to sell my T-47 if my other gear continues to not sell despite good prices, as I know the Cog will be gone in seconds. 

Managed to sell my MXR VBO instead. 

@Me And My Bass@krispn

In outstanding condition. Owned by me from new and only played at home. The best tracking I’ve had from an analogue octaver, hands down. Very convincing OC-2 clone (in fact they used Janek Gwizdala’s personal OC-2 as a reference when creating this pedal).

Just in case folks haven’t perused the manual, here’s the new Editor:

You’re missing v2!

what date roughly will we find out about the new SA thing??

There never was a v2 hardware (it was software only).

Not sure about the new SA as it’s not down to me, but also I wouldn’t be allowed to say, even if I did know. I do know it’s been pushed back six weeks because the selector switch batch that came in had been erroneously manufactured 180 degrees out of phase! Roger confirmed that on The Gear Page a few days ago.

Ignore the silly prices and make a few Stingray specs. Nothing ground breaking on the tool but fun nonetheless, the coloured pole pieces are a nice touch.

 

They used to have this back in the early 2000s when they had a vastly bigger range of basses, finishes and options. Was gutted they removed it as you could construct a nice big jpeg from it.

Ooh, cool, they’ve brought back the SLO Special nut width!

@lee650 is selling an amazing Subdecay phaser for a very good price. 

Not strictly my latest pedal. Have a new Source Audio one too but it’s still subject to NDA.

Hot on the heels of the Barbanera is another filter I ordered several months ago. Both filters were worth the wait but it does mean things are pretty quacky over here now. The Nimbus was ordered in August but held until the XD was also ready.

 

 

@pantherairsoft The Dusk does look great. I don’t think I’ve played a Dr Scientist pedal yet but I’m definitely curious.

Did your Barbanera finally arrive then? Nice I’d so. I’d love to get one of those. Bet the XD is nice. Those housings certainly look a lot nicer than the early ones. 

How did I miss this fantastic April fool joke? Well done whoever did this. 

Behringer do this sort of thing all the time; announce stuff and then it’s years before anything happens. The UB-Xa was six years between announcement and release.

So yesterday I caved and ordered the last one of these in stock at Andertons.  Figured if it's better than my Digbeth I'll sell the Digbeth and JPTR FX Jive to cover most of the damage.  

 

Was massively excited for it to arrive today, only to receive the dreaded DPD "Sorry, your Andertons parcel is delayed due to unexpected issue" text 😔.

 

Looks like my field report will be put back a week...

And…?

Any midiBeam 4Control users, please update your firmware to 1.4. This is essential if you want to use it with the FI V4:

Gig tickets that include the restaurant are available directly on the website. There’s a little link in the main ticket booking thing. Pretty straightforward when I did it in December. Went to see Kinga Głyk in March.

When you go to book a ticket, there’s a tab for “tickets” and one for “info”; click on the “info” one and just below that is a link to book restaurant tickets.

Ffs, how do you embed the link?

It works when copying the link from the app but not always from the website.

I have no idea how that nemisis hasn’t gone? It’s one of the cheaper I’ve seen

Tell me about it!
