how is the dark matter for bass ? thoughts on low-end loss or keepitude ?

With my P:

With the bass control at 12 o'clock you are losing a bit. With the gain low and the bass at 2 o'clock (see video), your bass is back (though still pretty tight - it's not a big booming sound).

As you push the gain up higher, you mmight need to push the bass up to 3o'clock to compensate, If you push the bass up full, you can get more bass out than you're putting in...

If you prefer not to mess with eq, I was getting good results with a blender as well.

The nice thing is the quality of the distortion - grimey and grindy rather than buzzy / fizzy.

How's the inferno sound on bass (any bass loss) is the sound muff like or more fuzz face like
[/quote]

It's pretty good in that regard but I've not really listened to it with a critical ear. I'll have a go and get back to you!

Maintains the bass end pretty well... about the same as my triangle big muff clone. It's not putting extra bass in like a bass big muff so depending on what you thought was the eqivalent volume setting for effect off and on you might think it loses a bit, or not at all. One of those slightly subjective things...

I'm not sure if I could accurately describe the difference between muff and face when it comes to bass!

I think it's its own thing really. The 'heat' knob gives you a good touch sensitive snarl and the 'smoke' knob gets you a more compressed kind of 'amp blowing up' sound.

For a high gain fuzz it's quite a touch sensitive and interesting sound, not flat and buzzsawy. It's a bit hissy at some settings but nothing you'd really notice in the mix.

I could put some clips up but I'd probably end up getting into it and keeping it!
