Would that style have started from Carl Thompson type things from mid 70's? Or Alembic?

when I had a HX stomp I went from cab sims to IRs, and then to just a HPF/LPF block... Chopping the top and bottom of the signal off meant it sat nicely in the mix, more like a bass should do and was easier for the PA to mix.

Big difference is the interface vinyl - I have to get up and flip the record after 4-5 songs Digital - I can simply create playlists of whatever I want and have effortless control digital multi effects- small changes mean menu diving, working out gain staging through a series of digital effects bottom press button press, oh balls I’ll get the laptop out and do it on that analogue - turn knob till it sounds right not saying digital effects won’t crack it, but the in my limited experience the UIs aren’t quite intuitive enough yet… That said it depends on what you’re doing, what I was trying to with my hx stomp was limited enough that indeed individual analogue effects were simpler and nicer. for electric guitar where the amp/cab is more critical to the sound of the instrument- I think I would have kept it

Actually that comment is fairly useless without this

There’s some preamp shootout video on YouTube with all the biggest names and the Digbeth shone out on that to my ears

the last time I stuck a pic on here it was my first ever pedalboard… similar but changed PB -> C4 -> Omnicomp -> irn Bru barbershop clone -> Aeon Lab series/mood L4 preamp -> bass boost chorus -> shallow water clone -> colourbox got at least one more build on the go so it’s not a final layout, which the odd placement of the c4 switcher makes clear! New: the L4 preamp- this thing is fun, two channels and then a limiter. If I had to describe it’s more like switching between a couple of amp models on a hx stomp than most drive/preamps I’ve tried, there is a complexity to the sound that is quite nice. Drive sounds just feel good too, will see how it does in a mix tomorrow. off the board: Vong filter pedal - not sure I need it. JohnK mini XO - crossover drive/distortion thing, similar to a greedtone overdrive - but with crossover to preserve lows below xo point… sounds great …for types of music I don’t play!! Frog F2B - gremlins and noise I need to sort out. Should have built the particle accelerator instead. Need to fix and work out if it was the valve that was microphonic or my wiring!! thoughts I Should have taken a punt on the anadime bass chorus that was up for sale a month or so ago to try against the bass boost chorus and sell the one I didn’t like - grass greener syndrome I think. shallow water growing on me. It’s subtle but good.

oooof - spendy though. 70's jazz positioning with an extra one somewhere slightly further back than a P pickup?

Mmmmm chocolate

I think you you end up needing to drive there to get that - nice weekend trip though!

@Gardenerben wanting a 5 string if anyone is selling

How much you price the whole project up at? I got £150-180 odd

Wouldn’t be a cheap build but… looks fun https://forum.pedalpcb.com/threads/nobelium-tube-bass-preamp-project.18932/

That sounds like a great outcome

Try the pino sound yourself … https://www.musikding.de/Skeptical-Buffer-kit

Are the sounds a step up too? Or just the interface?

RE: the worship team, or the anger management that @Dad3353 suggested?

There was an interesting thread on PedalPCB where they were discussing the circuit, 29pedals guy turned up and I think it got out of hand and the thread deleted …

You might be overlaying your own ideas on top of the situation. she may very well have learned somewhere that the most professional thing is to not inturupt anything, keep playing and let the tech team sort the issue…. How long did it take the tech team to spot the problem and get it sorted?

Also - was DI taken before the amp? Lass playing her first gig could very well be hearing herself through the FOH or foldback …

The buffer with the over engineered power supply in a massive box?

You’re doing too much. I’ve had spells where I end up over committing to things, been too busy. The first sign you can tell is getting impatient and having a lack of compassion and care for others. which is ok, it happens: step back and refocus in a positive way. also the Message translation/paraphrase of Amos 5:21-24 is worth a read.

It got the better of me... which is cool as I think you could set the FS on the stomp to do changes on stomp and C4 on one FS

Can you change presets on C4 with the stomp?
