    SOLD

    I am trying to avoid selling mine, like you I grow impatient with the faff but it's such a great pedal. Good luck.
  2. I have a Kokko Boost pedal, which the seller sent despite the advert being for a phaser. Then they sent another boost pedal despite me choosing a 'different' seller. I donated it to a worthy cause. Gave up on my dreams of a £20 phaser. Until one came up for 15 squids on FB market place. Bingo! Unwrapped it this morning and hooked it up. Totally blown away by the little orange beast. Can't compare it to every phaser ever made, but I have had a fair few. With this one I experienced no loss of bottom end, in fact it enhances the sound across the spectrum so the whole bass sound feels bigger, better. Three controls, rate, depth and mix. Mix isn't 100% clean when fully counter clockwise, but when the depth is right down it is completely clean, just a tiny bit enhanced compared with the pedal off. At its slowest it's a very subtle phase, almost flanged, at its quickest it's a frantic bubbly trem. In the sweet spot, or at least my sweet spot, it's a beautiful airy, gaseous phase which, with the mix and depth controls, can be as subtle or as in your face as you like. I'm yet to hear it in a band context, or mixed with another pedal but first impressions are very positive.
  3. A pedal board in the pocket of your bass bag. Battery or mains powered. Drum machine looper and headphone amp. For 50 quid? Hard to see a downside here.
  4. And the bassist looks totally unfazed by the experience. It's all just wonderful.
  5. Yep, crossed my mind too
  6. How refreshing to see a video focussed on the bass and drums.
  7. Never heard them before but been watching a drum cam video from a live show. The guy is out of this world.
  8. Oh my goodness. Watched the live version from 2014, all 13.47 minutes of it. First impressions, great filthy bass sound, guitarist in a prog band who was actually quite understated and didn't just noodle at speed for ten minutes, singer who stood in shadow at the back - just brilliant to see that - and what a drummer!
  9. Okey dokey
  10. I bought a pedal from @LouieM and UPS managed to lose it. Not the fault of anyone here, just a courier snafu. We remained in touch and eventually @LouieMhad to raise a claim with UPS. I had despaired of ever seeing the pedal, until today it arrived safe and sound! A protracted deal but the original label could still be seen and it had all been labelled correctly including my phone number so not the seller's fault in any way. Delighted to be able to leave positive feedback and I won't hesitate to deal with this fine Basschatter again.
  11. Marvelous. Off to Google Justin Chancellor now
  12. The sounds I use, the best pedal I own for each position. Missing is distortion but that is one of the gifts of the SY-1, just about any sound you want is in there somewhere. And with all else in the SY-1's parallel loop the synth effects come through unhindered and at whatever level I choose.
  13. That's brilliant. Really nicely done.
  14. Love this board. Need to sort out a way of powering my Compressore, without a separate mains plug. It's by far the best comp I've ever used.
  15. What a stunning instrument. Good luck with your sale.
  16. Lee is a smashing bloke, just sold me a great pedal, which arrived perfectly packaged and in excellent condition. A pleasure to do business with, I happily recommend him to the community.
  17. Ah yes, good point 🤦
  18. While we're on the topic of noisy pedals, anyone any experience of this? https://www.thomann.de/gb/joyo_zgp_noise_blocker.htm
  19. I snoozed. I loosed.
  20. I had exactly this problem with the Zoom when used with other pedals. In the end I used batteries, or a rechargeable power bank
