    We may never know....

    I'm using the compressor relatively lightly to just smooth and fatten the clean setting on the VT Bass. The HPF is set at 35Hz. I had read some threads on the placement of HPF and compressor but there didn't seem to be a consensus; much like this thread. I think for my moderate settings there may not be an appreciable difference however I order them but I really appreciate all the advice given above.

    Full shipping packaging (inner and outer boxes with corner protectors) now recovered from loft so collection by your courier is a possibility.

    Whereabouts in NW London are you please?
  5. Sparky Mark
    I'll take it please. PM sent.
  6. Sparky Mark
    And significant low cut too.
  7. Sparky Mark
    Is there the possibility that effects can add back in the sub frequencies the HPF is designed to eliminate?
  8. Sparky Mark
    Thank you, I'll try it that way too and see if I prefer either way. I use the VT for a clean fat tube tone so maybe the difference will be marginal.

    Thanks all; I'm now thinking VT Bass first, to get the tone I want, then into HPF to remove sub frequencies, then into Compressore third?

    This should sell in quick time. A great heavy relic, unlike the majority that look like they've been attacked by an orbital sander.

    Thanks for your advice. Unfortunately my main amps have parallel fx loops that are pre EQ, so a fail on two counts. I'm thinking that if the HPF is removing the sub 35Hz frequencies that the amp won't add too much back in.

    I'm slightly confused/undecided as to which order these pedals should be placed in the signal chain between my bass and amplifier. I'd welcome strong opinions from those Basschatters with actual experience please.

    These really are great sounding rigs. Much more capable than the Micro CL of a similar appearance. They possess the classic Ampeg tone palette and it's hard to sound bad through them.

    Somehow the Evo IV just sounds more dynamic/faster responding without having to make significant EQ adjustments. The new power amp may be partly responsible plus the below from Ashdown website:-

    Just bought a Pedaltrain Nano+ from Daryl. Excellent condition and price and Daryl even threw in a shedload of patch cables free of charge. Thanks again Daryl.

    The Markbass Compressore adds Threshold to your list of adjustable parameters.

    The Markbass Compressore adds a lovely tube warmth to the tone with everything at noon. It can do from really subtle to extreme compression and uses a 12ax7 valve.

    Keith's brother Mike drove all the way from Norfolk to Hertford to buy my alto sax. A quick, friendly transaction and I hope both Mike and Keith enjoy playing the sax.

    I'll have this please. PM sent.

    Believe the hype. The ABM600 Evo IV is my favourite ever ABM. However, I haven't tried the latest UK built Evo V which I'm sure will be just as good, maybe better.
