Ok, thanks for the advice. Do you happen to know if the Sommer Spirit XXL is ok with them? I think from what I've read it's thicker than the Tricone and thinner than the LLX. I had previously been advised that it would work well with the Hicons.

How come? Are the Hicon jacks just sturdy enough with out it?

PVC on that cable I think, so should be ok. cheers

Thanks! The cables are all going on a board, so once in place shouldn't be moving at all.

Hello! Going to be making up quite a few patch lead using sommer spirit xxl cable. Videos I've watched on soldering jacks suggest using heatshrink wrap. Anyone know what size and shrinkage I would need to use with this cable? I'll mostly be using Hicon pancake jacks, if that's relevant. If anyone's got any advice, much appreciated!

Let me know if you do decide to sell it, I'm thinking about ordering one.

I think the LoFi machine sounds really good on bass, definitely worth a try. I actually find the sound cleaner and more usable than the Frantabit (I use a noisegate with it to cut out noise when I'm not playing). Although the Frantabit does have way more options. The Bit Comander I thought was not great on bass, the sound is quite messy. But I've found that with other Earthquaker pedals too, don't track bass amazingly in my opinion. This thing looks good though, but not tried it yet: https://www.thomann.de/gb/malekko_scrutator.htm?sid=bd908bcba1861c1f43ce9243948d6866 Anyone ever used a WMD geiger counter?

Anyone know how this compares to the older Mothership? Bought one second hand on here last year and was really impressed with it. Crazy sounds, good sub octave, and it tracked better than I thought it would. Apart from the smaller footprint, what's different about this one?

Ok, thanks. Probably go with the 732s then, save myself £200. Cheers for the advice!

Looking to get a pair of active 12" PA cabs, and everything I've read online says that RCF are decent for the money I'm looking to spend. I emailed a rep at RCF and he reckons there's not much difference in sound between the ART 732 and the HD 32. Anyone listened to these models side by side? Any recommendations? The 732s are a bit cheaper so it looks like the better option, but though I'd get some second opinions before buying. It's mostly for use in a practice room, and small gigs. Will have a couple of sample pads going through it, some drum pads, and a couple of mics. I'll probably add a 15" sub at some point in the future, but am not too worried about getting loads of bottom end at the moment. Thanks

Bought a pedal, it arrived quickly and well packaged. Good bloke to deal with!

Yep it's a good pedal in my opinion. Does behave how I expected/wanted it to.

[quote name='elephantgrey' timestamp='1481473449' post='3192507'] It looks so much more useable for turning (Yaw) L/R, instead of rotating (Roll) L/R (which was my first assumption). [/quote] Yeh I think the pivot for the L/R axis is near the heal so you turn your toes from left to right etc. Could get some really interesting combinations of effects controlling two pedals at once.

Found out about these while looking about on the internet recently: http://dbinstrumentamp.com/drupal/content/4e-dual-axis-expression-pedal Looks like it would be so useful for stuff that I'd want to try out, but can't find them for sale anywhere. Did sign up for their waiting list for the next batch but no idea if/when there'll be a next batch. Anyone used one of these? Anyone know where to get hold of one (or want to sell one they've got but don't use)? I can't believe that there's no other manufacturers out there making a similar product, I would have thought there'd be plenty of demand for something like this. There's other expression pedals with dual outputs but none that I can find this the two different axis - forward/back and side to side. Maybe someone with appropriate skills could cobble together a DIY version. I'd pay good money!!

[quote name='doomed' timestamp='1480424171' post='3184224'] I'd say you may just have time to get an endorsement by Tena incontinence pants by the time you take delivery. [/quote] Nothing a bit of gaffer tape round the trouser leg wont sort out.

I put an order in yesterday - thought that early discount was too good to miss out on. Apparently they're already built and shipping sometime next week! Will let you know how it sounds.

Yeah, it's a shame - there's never much of a range of bass demos out there for more obscure pedals. Looking forward to the Zeus arriving. Might try and pick up a Synthotron next year some time.

Yep, they do make great pedals, I bought a couple last year. This one looks like it has some nice features. Might have to put it on the xmas list!

I was looking at the Synthotron, are they not great with bass? Found a bass demo here, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IFTd5F8da8k sounds like it could be fun, but hard to tell without actually trying it. Anyway, they're sold out on their website (so I ordered a Zeus!)

Just seen a post about these on the Iron Ether facebook page. https://ironether.com/product/divaricator/ Looks good! Are they new? I haven't seen them before. Anyone got one/ordered one?

Ok, thanks, not done any electrical/soldering stuff really, but sure I could learn if it's not too complicated. Do Boss have schematics that can be downloaded that show what's what inside the pedal? Will it be possible to tell if the diode is blown by looking at it, or will I need testleads or something? cheers
