    This makes me more excited for mine, but also more frustrated because I probably won't get it til January 2023 😭

    For my mini board (Mono Lite, so basically a Pedlatrain Nano) I've mounted a Gigrig isolator underneath and I plug that into a standard 9v True Tone power supply. I'm sure that would void any warranty but I've been doing it for about 6 months and it works great.

    Gone a little bit crazy this festive period with pedal buying but here is 3 of 4 pedals ordered this last few weeks. This is a fantastic fuzz for bass, probably second only to my Malekko B:Assmaster. The clipping settings give a lot of fun options to play with, the bass boost is good if you really want that low end, though at my preferred setting it becomes flabby and loses definition.

    I sometimes wonder if what's happening there is that the upper frequencies are so loud as to cause us to perceive the lower frequencies as quieter. The ear (bot the physical structure and the audio centres of the brain) pick up more on upper mid frequencies than anything else, cause that's roughly where human voices lie. Total theory and nothing to back it up mind!

    Yeah, I love the show. The irony is, he hardly changes up his own pedalboard!

    I have an Fulltone OCD that runs at 9-18v and I honestly can't hear the difference between the two. I saw that video and felt vindicated. I feel there's a lot of myth and magical thinking in the pedal world about components, vintage pedals etc etc. and it's good that someone like Josh Scott is *trying* to dispel the myths.

    Very much depends on the bass, particularly the headstock. My Callowhill MPB will fit comfortably in a Mono sleeve, but I have to fight the zipper with my JMJ Mustang. Harvest Leather make a short scale gig bag that fits the JMJ, but they are very expensive. Serek and Maruszczyk also make bags that will fit most short scales.

    I've just found a video I did on Instagram using the Dweller and a little bit of Moog for filter sweeps. My username is bassistlewis and its a post from the 10 March

    I haven't done any recording with it but I like the sound of it with bass. You can change the number of stages, the wave shape plus the usual mix, depth, rate, so it's pretty versatile. Though I'm guilty of set and forget. It can get pretty wild with the delay feature, so I don't really use that function (might if I had a TRS cable).

    I recieved 2 new pedals today, a Boss OC-2 and a Demedash Spidola Germanium fuzz (the silver one), so they were straight on the board for my gig tonight (it's a soul band so won't get much use!). They might get more use in my original band...
  12. bassist_lewis
    Ordered both of these before Xmas and they both arrived today. The OC-2 is, of course, the gold standard of octave pedals. It's more subby and tracks a lot better than I expected. Demedash are a small company in Manitoba in Canada (I think a video was recommended to me on Instagram). He only makes a few pedals but they're very cool. This is the Spidola Germanium Fuzz. I basically wanted something smaller than my Malekko B:Assmaster (keeping it obviously, it may go back on the board).

    Anyone ever used an 80s Ibanez OT10? Seen them floating around the interwebs.
  14. bassist_lewis
    thanks for the tip! just checked and apparently the Doom 2s went up today and were all gone in 2 minutes 😪

    What does the RC Booster actually do? is it a drive or just a clean boost?
  16. bassist_lewis
    I know I'm guilty of becoming more obsessed with pedals over lockdown. When I wasn't gigging it was a way of feeling like I was still engaging in music, and they're cheaper than buying endless basses (usually). It might make you angry to watch the JHS YT channel, the guy has literally EVERY version of every pedal.

    How to start a fight in a bass player's bar 😅

    I would agree its the best he's ever made (though the Proton 4 is no slouch). I paid £300 for mine which I was happy paying but I don't think I would pay much over that. But the price will rise to whatever the market can support. If people are willing to pay £5k for a klon, why not £500 for a Chromatron?
  19. bassist_lewis
    I will find him... I'm sure I could but owning the pedals is more important to me than having the money (currently!).
  20. bassist_lewis
    Do you take credit card?
  21. bassist_lewis
    Just read it. Annoyed I didn't get in quicker and finally get the Doom 2 I've been wanting! The changes he's making seem reasonable, it's the way Iron Ether does things.
  22. bassist_lewis
    Congrats!!! where did you get it??
  23. bassist_lewis
    The last ones I saw here was expensive but not as outlandish as these examples (almost bought the Octabvre mini but got a speeding fine and couldn't afford it 😪) I think the Chromatron was in the US and the Octabvre was in Germany. I didn't consider that it might be a scam... its a very niche one if it is!!
  24. bassist_lewis
    Both on Reverb 😅 I'm mostly mad coz I want them!

    Anyone noticed an insane increase in the price of 3Leaf Audio pedals? I recently saw a Chromatron up for about £700, then last night saw an Octabvre mk2 on sale for £800. It was gone by this morning! I understand why, they're amazing pedals and Spencer isn't building at the moment, or at least is only filling back orders, but it still seems a bit ridiculous, like the original Klons that go for £5k.
