It did have some downsides for me though: - Menus. I hate all pedals with menus! At least the software is very good. - It needs isolated power otherwise it's very noisy. It's also noisy when powered from USB. Silent with its own supply though! - You can hear the filter go up and down by discreet steps which can sound a bit like crackling. The pedal position is probably encoded to a range of 0-128 or similar and then sent to the processor, then the filter snaps to these values rather than implementing some kind of smoothing algorithm. That could probably be fixed in software though! Fun fact - Sonuus HQ is just a couple of miles away from me, right near where I rehearse! When I emailed to enquire about how to adust the rocker tension, he offered to do it for me if I brang it down there, top chap. [/quote] Yeah you need to spend a few hours at home setting up the sounds you want - but once you've set it up it's great - and you can program a setlist so switching between sounds is easy. The noise thing can be fixed in the software I think! You can select what kind of instrument you're using, and it changes the gain structure to accommodate (I guess). Anyway I think by default it's set to elec guitar - I changed it to 5-string bass and the noise was gone That's awesome! They seem like a great company

Y'all should check out the Sonuus Wahoo. It does literally everything. Everything can be edited/customised, and the software is pretty easy to use once you get going. I just guess their marketing just isn't great? I've got one and it's an awesome pedal! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RusRDyCT3W8&t=638s

I'd just be quite intetested in a shortscale Jag with a mudbucker and nice bridge pickup! Looks like a neat bass in it's own right

On the gear front, and in consideration that he's now in the warm embrace of the Fender custom shop, I'm suprised he hasn't gone with some kind of stereo/Rick-o-sound thing on the basses rather than splitting his output signal via crossovers and various Pog-type pedals. [/quote] I guess he's quite happy with his pedalboard set up, and he'd still need a switch to mute the various channels anyway, so it's just more cables hanging off your bass in the end! It'd be interesting, if they did do a dual output, if they could built a POG into the one of them, with maybe a killswitch? Could run off a 9V like an active bass. It just gets complicated haha!

Just wondered if anyone had noticed Mike's new Fender Jaguars? Looks like a wide-range humbucker as per their telecaster bass models with an extra bridge pup on the red model. Would be very interesting if they made a signature model. Shortscale Jag with a mudbucker. The black sparkle finish is the rather nice too!
