This preamp for bass sounds great, looks cool and is affordable! The SONICAKE B Factory.

Welcome back to the wetter bass!
What a lovely affordable preamp for bass. Its sound is up to par with its looks, it feels solid and the DI truly usable as this video demonstrates.
But this pedal is not an overdrive preamp, to me it's more an ANALOG AMPLIFIER SIMULATOR!
Enjoy the video! Also, it would be wonderful if you could LIKE and SUBSCRIBE! ❤️

My god I love that introduction. Also looks like Sonicake are reaching their arms wide: guess what my next video is on😂

[@thewetterbass]

😂 Really??? Well, can’t wait to get your take on this one then.

[@TheoAndHisPedals]

@@thewetterbassI think similar but different. Overall, I think it’s a phenomenal bit of kit for the price.

[@PorchBass]

Their cool darkglass clone I hope!

[@joek81981]

4:10 SOLD! I bought this because I need SOME sort of preamp into my interface and this was cheap. I sought reviews after the fact. Holy smokes! The compression and how it handles the gain in "pre" mode is sublime considering is cost almost NOTHING.

[@cm-kl2wx]

Thank you for your comprehensive review...appreciated you explaining it's best use and demystifying the options available...very helpful to a beginning bassist...thank you.

[@PorchBass]

You can't hide the rawness of the intro! Sounds pretty fine that's half my pedalboard and a DI in one box.

[@ClaudioOderich]

Great stuff

[@hereonmars]

Just found your channel. Im looking at some of these options, like this or the joyo sparrow. Love the intro 😂

[@JustK009]

The intro & the video made me buy the unit and sub to your channel🍻

[@thewetterbass]

🤘🏻 cool! Thanks.

[@anthonypanneton923]

I got one of these to use for recording, and it sounds great running straight from the 1/4" unbalanced output to my USB interface. Good fat, solid tone.

[@thewetterbass]

Cool! Was thinking about comparing it to a tubes preamp I own. I think it would do quite well.

[@TheRetroBassist]

Starting the video with a little tribute to Ennio Morricone? Didn't even need the review afterwards, the video was already perfect LOL.

[@thewetterbass]

Yes! 😂

[@AdamKnorr]

Haha, love that Intro 😁

[@thewetterbass]

HOHA! 🤠

[@MrGrsrrt]

I have it. Sound great. Beefy and thick with the overdrive engaged.

[@thewetterbass]

Exactly!

[@cm-kl2wx]

I like the soft touch switches too...feel more expensive...works great with my Acoustic Bass and even with my Strat on some settings...many uses!

[@robdelabassist]

Ah this pedal makes more sense now. At first I was disappointed in the drive mode cos i was expecting it to boost the sound abit

[@thewetterbass]

Wrong labeling leads to wrong expectations, I guess. I too was a bit confused at first. Glad it makes more sense now.

[@robdelabassist]

@thewetterbass sonicake are really doing well though aren't they. Would love to see their take on a klon or bluesdriver

[@thewetterbass]

@robdelabassist yes, it’s refreshing to see that they do want to offer their personal take on more common effects.

[@robdelabassist]

@thewetterbass gotta admit, I do like the pedals they do in big boxes, looks very nostalgic

[@kameronwraithd.k.5363]

Could you make a review of the JOYO Tidal Wave please?

[@thewetterbass]

Tried to get in contact with them already but had no answer back. Will try again!

[@Bikewithlove]

4:13 = Sold ☕️

[@MojoPenguin]

For a few Pedals More

[@latenight5865]

Thank you so much for this great review! I am thinking about buying either this B factory or A factory (for acoustic guitar) for my acoustic bass guitar with a passive piezo transducer. I mainly look for a preamp pedal for high impedance passive piezo. Which one do you think would be a better choice for me?

[@cm-kl2wx]

Get the B Factory...it makes my Acoustic Bass come alive...recommended...cheers

[@thewetterbass]

@cm-kl2wx good to know!

[@cm-kl2wx]

Question Sir...is it necessary to set a pedal like this to 'Unity Gain" and can this be done on this pedal with the volume control ? If not, do you think this is a shortcoming of this pedal? Cheers...

[@thewetterbass]

Hello! No it’s not “necessary” to set this pedal at unity gain. It will depend on the usage and the signal level needed either in studio, on stage or in an amp/PA. Yes, it can be done with the volume control. And no, please don’t call me sir. 😂❤️ Also check out the video from my friend Theo and his pedals for another take on this preamp: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jGXbopePhspqhsUsi=fnQGEIP-t9QI0baL

[@jesuguru2394]

I feel a strange inexplicable urge to do a Russian kick dance

[@thewetterbass]

😂😂😂

[@mikedproducer]

Is there any line noise? I have an older pedal by the same company and I get this annoying hiss.

[@thewetterbass]

No, and if there would be, it would most probably come from the power supply or electricity contamination (like bad grounding form electrical installation or sharing current with an electrical engine…). The device itself is well grounded and doesn’t make any noise.

[@mikedproducer]

@@thewetterbass Thank you! It looks really great. I’m conflicted between my inner-cheapskate & my desire for good gear. 🤣

[@thewetterbass]

@@mikedproducer I hear you. If you have the cash for more expensive gear, go for it. But if you got a limited budget, this preamp is a solid option.

[@mikedproducer]

@@thewetterbassThank you for your guidance!

[@mikedproducer]

@@thewetterbass Have you ever used the Electro-Harmonix Battalion? That caught my eye and is within budget.

[@gusgus4793]

The Wetter Bass sorry to be so naive, but what is this mysterious cab sim you speak of? Just bought one and would like to know…just between me you promise 😁

[@thewetterbass]

😂 not a mystery. Just my way of renaming something that makes the pedal sound like a simulation of a (very) warm Ampeg amp with (a lot) of mid scoop. The more you turn the blend up, the more of you hear that “Amp Sim”.

[@gusgus4793]

@@thewetterbass haha…I thought it was secret squirrel business! Looking forward to hearing that warm Ampeg sound then. Cheers and the best review I’ve seen on the product 👍🏼

[@pietrostimoli]

Phantom Power?

[@thewetterbass]

Nop 😉
