fantastic pedal, så many functions!

Pedrummer 27.10.2020

I?m blown away with all the features this pedals offer, if you google it properly you?ll realize that it has a lot more features than what is shown on this site.
-the possibility of using it as an audio interface on your computer is fantastic!
-Reamp pre recorded basslines
-import you own IRs or use the ones it comes with.
the only thing I did not like is the drive which I did?nt find as usefull as Sansamp?s to thicken the sound, for me it sounds more like a fuzz.
The noise gate is really good.
Fantastic pedal, recommended.

Great bass tone in a little box

Benavente 5 27.05.2022

After figuring out the connection with the PC(holding down the 2 switches and then plugging the 9 volt power cable) and updating the firmware, everything works as promised. Keeping the distortion on all the time in small amounts thanks to the blend control helps being heard in the mix. Highly recommended!

Good price and features, poor quality

cwi- 30.07.2023

I have been using this preamp for a few months now. I would be very happy with it, if my unit wasn't riddled with technical problems.

Pros:
- Good sound
- Really good looking, feels good to use
- Compact
- Good price
- Plenty of settings and options

Cons:
- No Linux drivers
- Poor build quality all around. In no particular order:
--- USB output will randomly produce loud buzzing sound for a few seconds.
--- 3.5mm headphone output will regularly get muted for a couple of seconds at a time, randomly.
--- Left and right channels of the AUX input are flipped.
--- No sound in the right ear when using the 6.3mm jack output.
--- Recording via USB will sometimes result in some high pitched background noise that is otherwise not present.

Very good for stand alone

Knigthown 20.03.2024

I was able to perform live with no amp, by activating the IR and monitoring through IEM.
Being able to set up my tone very close to my preference. It is versatile and for all tastes. Very strong construction, no problem to be used in touring.
The only issue I found is that I was not able to connect via USB to update the IRs and explore full the capabilities of the pedal. It proved that the pedal is faulty and was sent for repair/replace.
