"What its emulating here is an svt" God stop selling anything saying it's emulating an svt to give value to your product, that od sounds nothing like an svt, just like a plain normal overdrive box.....

It looks like a standard of setup too

[@soundknight]

Its a pity there isn't more flexibility on the channels eq like a mid shift and presence, I recon I'd swap the od out for a more flex on the eq.

My Radial PZ-Pre acoustic pre with DI has the PZBuffer, its a really awesome feature. I think Radial doesn't make good sounding OD circuits though they should just stick to eq, gain/impeadance matching and DI making. Then there pedals will be very useful and a player can buy their favourite OD to put with it.

I'll stick to the Tech 21

Everyone seems to dig the SansAmp. I've actually had three of them at various times (long story), and each time I've been frustrated with the basic sound when running it direct to the board or to an amp. Although the various knobs alter the sound, in all cases, it just seems to muddy things up and "squeeze" the sound. This Bassbone sounds like it doesn't do that... I might need to give it a try. I've yet to find a decent DI (or at least one that I've liked) for bass. I was looking into the MXR because it sounds pretty good, but has no effects loop, so that one is out.

With the SansAmp I find it works best with the blend between 50% and 75%. Higher than that it starts to sound thug and process. The overdrive on the bassbone sound very fizzy IMO. For a clean DI I really like the MXR M80. Ive tried a few Darkglass pedals also. They are well built but not the tine I was looking for.

I feel like you didn’t quite grok how the “drag” function works. Similar to how a Cloudlifter Zi DI operates, varying the input impedance. Yes, it affects the sound, but it is not actually an EQ. Nor is it as simple as a gain stage. It impacts how your passive pickups behave. It’s a bit of electrical engineering, but anyone who has ever put their P or J pickups through a variable impedance circuit knows how dramatic (or subtle) a difference it can make in the fullness of sound.

I guess it's kinda off topic but do anybody know a good website to stream new tv shows online?

@Dario Thomas glad I could help :D

Quick. Let’s make a video before figuring out that AWFUL ground buzz. Drives me nuts.

I like the Radial stuff, but the weird power requirements (400ma, 15volts) are so dumb and painfully inconvenient. Also, the outputs should either be all across the top, or all on the sides, but they're all over the place, making pedalboard placement tough. Pass.
