In 100 years from now, Darkglass will be considered as one of the greatest innovators of bass gear. The name of this company shall be spoken in a sanctimonious tone. Never in my life have I heard or played a pedal that not only nailed the tone I've sought after for years, but made it better than I could ever dream.

[@jobelewis6416]

Many YT demos sound very scratchy and undefined but yours are very tasteful and get the best out the circuit

[@ChrisKollias]

Cheers Jobe!

[@superankan]

Yea right? I was also watching some demo and found it quite fizzy and meh, but in this demo it really shines. Dope pedal

[@toolspiral8421]

I had the X, was about to sell it. Watched your X guides serie, and now using the X always on, and just added the X Ultra. My wallet doesnt like you, but i am so happy with my sound. You should do a “Guide” for each DG pedals.

[@alexskibicki2262]

Awesome demo, chris. \m/ I've been thinking about purchasing this pedal to go with my darkglass vmt. I do like how heavy and metallic it sounds. so I am considering buying this pedal. my other choice would definitely be the alpha omnicron.

[@alexskibicki2262]

Update: I’ve purchased the microtubes x a while back and it sounds killer. It sounds phenomenal live and in recordings

[@renatoaversaricamara9099]

Great video, man. What song are you playing 40 seconds into the video?

[@D3ft0ne]

Very nice! not bad at all... this started off sounding like a boss ODB... but shaped up pretty well to the glory of GarkGlass : )

[@sergiodg8596]

Probably one of the best guitar distortion pedals. Trust me, I have one 🙃😀🙃😀😘

[@didiervancampo9384]

I got this pedal and was disappointed because thé volume would drop significantly when engaged. But your video helped me to get this fixed🤘. This pedal needs some serious knowledge and understanding to get it work properly. It is not a push and play item but a intense and complexe pedal.

[@jscardenasjr]

when it comes to versatility, which is better, x or the omicron? thanks!

[@cigarettecat3981]

Will it sound better before or after compressor pedal

[@stevewindsenergy]

Hi, 1) you think its good for playing good Charlotte, sum 41 , billy Talent etc offspring? 2) you also think it sounds better than boss odb3 when we look at the overdrive? 3) also do you prefer this microtube X or you prefer alpha omicron?

[@JasonicIR8]

Still with Dingwall bass !! Of course the song is always good with a Dingwall bass, nobodys make test with Darkglass and others bass 🤷‍♂

[@Roman_Kryachik]

Nice sound without cab simulation. So I think it can be used straight into the foh

[@mrshadow5132]

Does it come with ir cab? I plan in the future buying it.

[@Roman_Kryachik]

@@mrshadow5132 Yes it does.

[@IngwarMuller]

What does high pass filter do in hyper luminal compressor?

[@jobelewis6416]

Adjusts the amount of low end in the signal that triggers the compression, not the output signal though

[@samthebassman6153]

Why does everyone who has a dingwall also have a darkglass item, and why does everyone who owns a darkglass own a dingwall?

[@user-ti5mm3eb3u]

Chris I need tab plz

[@ChrisKollias]

When I have some available time I will try to make one :)

[@lummond]

So we're just happy with this chasm of signal missing between like 300Hz to 1kHz?

[@dekhruel]

Another Dingwall... All demos always sound the same...

[@dougwilliams44]

SPECTOR Basses... No exceptions!

[@dekhruel]

@@dougwilliams44 But they could use Fender, ibanez or something else sometime to compare.

[@czarpaul01]

DekhruelBass if you check some of Chris’s other demons, he uses his custom bass and his Warwick

[@jobelewis6416]

DekhruelBass That’s because DG pedals are only as good as the bass you put through them, so obviously their going to demo them with a Dingwall

[@ThrashingBasskill]

@@dekhruel I sometimes feel like a cheap bastard and a unicorn at the same time with my ESP LTD (500€), I've never seen a demo with those.
