lapolpora Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 Hi All, Sorry to start a new thread for this but I'm only just aware of the possibilities of this pedal and I couldn't find a direct answer in the search engine. What's the difference between the new and older versions of the BMS? How many versions are there? Which ones should I avoid? True Bypass is very important to me and I've read stories about the degradation of the signal when the BMS is in the signal chain but not on. Is this really the case? Your advice and opinions gratefully received! Cheers, Derrick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thisnameistaken Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 There is some discussion [url="http://www.talkbass.com/forum/showthread.php?t=573244"]here[/url]. It's true that the older model doesn't have a "true-bypass" bypass mode, but it can be modified easily enough to be true bypass (I've done the mod myself and I don't know anything about electricities).

thisnameistaken Posted November 25, 2010 Share Posted November 25, 2010 Haha. If you see a 'KevTEOP' on TB complaining like a crotchety old git about how the old BMS is way better than the new one, that's actually me. Doesn't make me any less right though.
