Is it similar to the drive on the BH amps on that the parameters are all done using the tone print? CAn those be edited like the Spectracomp et al in the editor?

Easy peasy! Top bloke! Nuff said!

They’ll do the celeb tone print rounds again and generate a bit of social media interest.

That is one of the advantages of the editor in my view. I'm surprised its not been approached in a more overt way but to be fair I've not seen the videos of famous folks talking about their respective tone print inspirations.

Does the spectracomp have a patch which replicates the famed Dbx comp? That would be interesting especially if the tone prints were designed to emulate famous industry standard comps rather than witty titled pro’s tone prints. Anyone from TC Electronic been approached about that idea?

It’s hard to really pass comment on a device that not been released. TC will obviously support this product as they do with all these devices they make. I for one think it looks great and I’d get one to use as a practice device if I didn’t already have a solid set up at home. Would this be a great gig bag back up for any gig. Yup is it worth the asking price? To me darn tooting?

The joy of doing something is not always at the expense of modesty.

I believe earlier version have ‘cab types’ but now the controls have different names.

Omni can sim is a pedal worth checking out if that’s your thing

Cheers👍🏽

Flats tend to sound 'duller' but have more going on in the mid range so a Lomenzo pedal sounds to me anyways as a perfect compliment to what you are trying to achieve. I'm really tempted to put a T bird pick up in a p bass but with a Lull costing £250 it'd nearly be wiser to pick up an Embassy bass for what they cost new!

It's in a queue Fixed it for you Al Have you been banned form comp chat? You should start a new compressor related forum with a .comp web address

Mr Painy bought some strings from me and was very patient when he noticed I’d forgotten to add the G string - it nearly went out in the rubbish but was saved!! Swift payment and good comms. I’d have no hesitation dealing with this chap again.

I’ve posted before on the Aguilar basically quoting a post eubert form TB discussing how the pedals controls change and interact differently on AGS mode. It’s not really usable as a dual clean/drive pedal due to the massive volume increase. Aguilar missed a trick there but it’s maybe not what they were thinking about in terms of the THDI pedal’s main function. @Al KrowI kept things pretty neutral eq wise. Like I say the combination of my rig and pedals just worked well. It could have been the comp and drive just keeping everything nice and tight, the baked in AO tone etc.

I used an AO pedal last night on my gig (and the gig last weekend too (irish/pop/rock covers) and I swear the tightness of the bass and low end (with a CAli 76CB in the signal chain too to be fair) when playing "Should I Stay or Should I Go" really jumped out for me. It had great bottom end retention, nice and crispy in the highs without harshness - I know what I mean - I saw one guy mouth to his mate "That rhythm section is tight as f*ck" and this was at 8pm in an Irish bar on St. Patrick's day after the spectacle of the 6 Nations. I'd say 'the sound' contributed to that as much as the playing. The AO is quite a versatile unit and I'm not a massive DarkGlass fanboi in terms of how I've heard a lot of folk use their gear. It sounded great in other tunes too as did my Bass Soul Food. I guess knowing the strengths of a piece of gear and maximizing it to work for your rig/band is the key. All those pre-amps bring something to the table. It's nice to have the choice really! It's not gonna be as dead on old school as an Aggie TH head for example but I can make it work in my covers band to roll off treble and add a bit of gain here and there or go balls out for 7 Nation Army etc. You may disagree, I'm not that bothered

Of course!

New epiphone embassy, flats roll off the tone. That’d be dubsome!

It looks great. Full featured practical and useful at home and on a gig.
