The problem with Nate's demos is that he is so good that even the cheapest gear would sound stellar in his hands. (but I still bought the Eventide H90 because of him)

[@ip0ts]

1000%. It is evident that investing in enhancing one's skill comes first. And any bass, effects and gadgets will sound divine.

[@basscase78]

He's punishing the bass, and then like the most layed back personality! love it

[@01frugalbassist85]

Burr brown op-amps, you say? That's audiophile territory. I'm sold..

[@BARTFUNKBASS]

Sounds awesome!

That's Wowsome my Friend 💪👍👈🎶🎵 Subscribed 😊 Warm Greetings from Germany ! 🕊️🎹🐯

[@jeffs.1999]

That was kickin'!! Love the subtle, but sweet controls. That could be one primary pedal on my board. Thanks. 👍

This video is a beautiful thing. You rule, NN!

[@sourceaudioeffects]

...and your Starsky and Hutch jacket is super cool!

[@NateNavarro]

⁠​⁠@@sourceaudioeffectsThanks, SA!!! I’ll do a demo of my jacket sometime soon…. “We’re rockin’ four inside pockets, emulating the legendary original by Starsky and Hutch…”

@@NateNavarro I've been giggling for about a literal 5 minutes at this joke....

[@alexskibicki2262]

Awesome demo, Nate 😎🤘🏻🎸 the dudes from source audio makes such phenomenal pedals and this preamp sounds pretty cool. I’m thinking about purchasing this preamp pedal. Especially since I do own 2 source audio pedals.

[@martinheath5947]

Is the "direct out" xlr straight from the instrument or via the pedal?

[@KellySKline]

Hi, Nate. Would you please mind sharing if you typically use a preamp in a live situation to improve or control the sound you get from your amp and the house?

[@NateNavarro]

Hi Kelly, Thanks for asking. I always use a preamp in live situations. Typically, during rehearsals I'll spend time with the front of house engineer, tailoring my signal to their preferences. The preamp is very useful in this stage. During shows, I'll use my amp head to make adjustments for myself on stage, and the pre-EQ amp signal is sent to front of house, so that my amp adjustments don't affect the signal they receive.

[@KellySKline]

@@NateNavarro - thank you for taking time to respond! My live playing situations were at a much smaller scale, and it’s really cool to learn how they might scale up.

[@hillblocksview]

What does the "Scoop" emulate? I couldn't understand in the video, and closed captions couldn't pick it up either? 🤔 Great demo btw 🤩

[@taylorhilyard8661]

Pultec eq. Tighter lows, less low mids.

[@JBirdBobbyJ]

No finer musician to showcase gear!

[@Thurgor_Supreme]

1k has got to be the lowest treble I've ever heard of

[@ccherryii]

Always smokin’! Happy New Year my friend.

[@NateNavarro]

Thanks, Carl! Happy New Year to you too, my friend! 🥳

[@MikeNevill3]

Dude. I'd love to have lessons from you.. just don't have a way to do so.

[@MikeNevill3]

Ohh. I'm learning evermore.. jezz. It's gona take me forever to get that part (you know what one).take care man

[@Cake_Doge]

I really liked the punchy low end boost. It wasn't boomy, it was just punchy

[@NateNavarro]

Thanks! Using the BASS control, which is centered at 100Hz, in tandem with the FOCUS control, which is a sweeping hi-pass filter, lets you dial in the lows nice and precisely.

[@Cake_Doge]

@@NateNavarro How do you dial the high pass filter with bass? I really like the rumble of the low lows, but as you said sometimes they take headroom and deprive the sound from clarity. For example with the Ampeg plugins I use the high pass filter to 200hz which gets rid of some low lows and puts more emphasis on the mids, losing all the mud and boom.
