Just sold ped his pedal back. I think I’ll buy it back in 6 months or so, we are starting a “pedal share”. 😂😂

Just nabbed a parallel mixer pedal off Frank. What a very nice chap.😃👍🏻 Accepted my money and I had it the next day! Deal with confidence people. Thanks Frank.

I should think so, it is an absolute beauty 😍

I’m smitten with both… still

Took mine to rehearsal tonight first time I’ve played it in nearly 2 years since getting the sadowsky. I’m still in love with it. Total keeper. 
 

I loved mine… you can turn it into a CA Funkulator to, an all round great tone shaper. Looks 😎 to

Perhaps worth mentioning that if you're after a BIG sound rather than the portability compromise we're looking for, then whilst I like the sound we manage to produce with our gear as a band a lot, it's not in the same class as @bassfan's 24K crew's set up. Now that is a gloriously BIG sound! 

That’s very kind of you to say so! It’s a heavy beast to!

The C4 wasn’t previously controllable via a USB connection on a phone - it only had 1-way audio connection via the input 2 jack. It now has the same functionality as EQ2 and UltraWave in that you can plug a usb cable into the pedal and your phone and have all changes be read from the pedal - move a knob on the pedal and it is updated in real time on the app on the phone. You can also read what presets are on your pedal from the phone. 

I guess you need a FireWire to micro usb adaptor for iPhones. Assuming there’s such a thing. 
 

edit: £3.99 on eBay 👍🏻

I managed to get one last year as I wanted (note not “needed”!) a synth. The boss sy200 tempted me but when a c4 and midi switch popped up for sale here I snapped it up. I prefer it to the future impact as it’s smaller. I like the software. 
The majority of good advice on here has been given. It can replace a few pedals, it does synth and some env filters well, but you need the midi switch to unlock its full capabilities. I have specific songs downloaded to presets. There’s a nice sounding moogesque patch on there to download that I specifically wanted for one song. 
 

But.. I also have an oc5 and a couple of env filters (mainly for fun). Don’t sell your oc2 keep that as an investment.

I found that my low-output pickups didn’t seem to be strong enough to trigger it over anything but a very small range of the sensitivity knob; guess the active preamp in yours will help with that. Hoping to try the Fwonkbeta again next week courtesy of @CameronJ. Quite enjoying the Qtron nano I just picked up.

I love the fwonk to, enjoy! I wished we played more funk to justify using more squelch. 😂

Cool. Glad you like it. I knew pretty quickly it wasn’t for me. I prefer the less subtle kind and use the C4/Spectrum/FI for the synthy stuff. 

Yeah. I like it’s tone. Seems to work well with the oc5 and the seamoon. Didn’t have any issues with the pick ups I. The Shuker (active - lanepoor) I’ll try the sadowsky over the weekend

@bassfan what are your thoughts on it so far?

I got 20 minutes with it last night and I like it. It’s more subtle than the fwonk and combined with the OC5 gives me some usable sounds for Bruno Mars tracks we do.  Assuming they cut through in the live mix! 😃

And another reshuffle … this is it now until @lee650sells me his GR2 😂

I can imagine it didn’t sound pretty. 😂 

Funk fest!! 

Bought another filter off Peter… in the post less than 12 hours later… brilliant. 😃 Thanks Peter. 

Cheers @Boodang I’ve got the fwonk to and after rearranging my board last week I now need to do it again 🤦🏻‍♂️😂😂

Can you post your settings for clips 1 & 5 Boodang? It’ll give me a nice starting point. I like that sub clip. 

Nice review @Boodang 👍🏻 I now nearly own both pedals (it took a while), where have you posted your sound clips? 
 

what songs are you using them for in a live context?

On eBay. Won’t get it until Monday. It was originally on at a fairly high price which wasn’t much of a saving on the £166 I’ve seen new ones for. Thankfully it got relisted at a more realistic opening bid and no one else bid. 

Excellent. Let us know what you think. Drop me a line if it doesn’t work out 😃

Where’d you score that! You must know people… 😃

Last change for now…..

Arrived this morning. Being gigged tonight.

Unfortunately they didn't take into consideration their back orders and those wiped out the stock they had.

He said they shouldn't have been booked on and made available! Close but no cigar.

What happened to me at andertons and guitarguitar. Andertons had 240 on order and 138 on back order, they received 87. 24 more due end April rest is unknown so I was way down the list at 124. I’m sure guitaraguitar are the same although they didn’t divulge that much info 😏
