    - Publishing of sound effects or is it easy?
    yep super simple addition of a small manual is available shema's in the box so very practical

    - The manual is clear and sufficient? ...
    Finally, yes even without the manual you get to use it or else it really is not that much smarter

    SOUND QUALITY

    - Effects are they effective, responsive and realistic enough?
    yes nothing wrong with this level

    a United States bass fender jazz bass active and a passive jazz bass mexico

    OVERALL OPINION

    2 months

    - What is so special that you love the most,
    contrary to other opinions I do not use that record directly connected to my fw1884 and it sounds perfectly fine is not breathing or unwanted noise and it's perfect for recording

    I did not confainace the seller bass center and thank him again

    CHERO is a bit strong but it's good it works well and since I own this pedal I finally have a good bass sound recording so I'm satisfied with the quality / price ratio?

    - With experience, you do again this choice? ...
    yes but rack because it is more practical to play with the pots in facace but also because the material never leaves my house so the rack is easy

    Note that you can use both outputs simultanment, to be in the direct sound, and also back on a bass combo.

    UTILIZATION

    Use trs simple ds has played that one with for ten minutes.

    reading the manual (in English) can not make stupid mistakes as in the opinion of aldoo exemmple by coming back directly into the floor of amplification of a combo instead of going by the send or return effects loop. This has the effect of rot on the pedals with the APRS Galise of the amp, forcment!

    programming is super simple to do.

    SOUND QUALITY

    L is the best: Versatility, clarity and thickness of the sound, for as little as you use Get You Started with the help of presets provided on the doc, you soon realize the intrt and the function of each knob.

    sounds can therefore agree funk, metal, to reggae, which is played with fingers, the mediator, with a low active or passive, this case is truly a marvel of sound! prfr my preset is the SVT style.

    to say, I play with a Harley Benton 5-string active, more than a t a surprised sound, and recess is no need to thank the bass!

    Friends bassists have tried with their low, say anything, it's gold in case!

    I invite aldoo reconsider its opinion trs fast!

    OVERALL OPINION

    Two months since I bought it at a price of 180 AFien, who bought the rack MODEL I hsit not long in hearing even if he had a crazy stuff from me, but the guys in my group quickly seized the diffrence between then and now!

    I played with before or crate combo amp speaker crate + crate (see profile), now I just dplace with my bass and my box that fits in my bag down, and my back is happy never to wrestle the pounds crate!

    in the report qualitprix trs opportunity is good, even if it was not really in a prvu the charges will like me, especially compared to 1000 need to dbourser s 'Unhide ampeg or consort with (I know, it's different, but try this case and consider what you would do with the cart 800, the sound of the case justifies the question)

    I would do this choice without worry.

    See previous opinions or doc on their site.

    The non-programmable output has not treated, it is a shame not to find it on the programmable version.

    UTILIZATION

    The general configuration is it simple?
    Rather simple configuration, can adjust three presets:
    - We call a preset by pressing once on the pedal,
    - When you turn a knob, the LED will flash faster or slower to indicate the difference with the initial setting,
    - On tap twice on a pedal to save the preset and that's it.

    The manual is simple and offers a lot of presets to try to test the possibilities of the beast.

    The manual is simple and offers a lot of presets to try to test the possibilities of the beast.

    SOUND QUALITY

    The effects are they effective, responsive and realistic enough?
    The knobs really affect the sound, no amp provides a real plus. It's hard not to use it once you have tasted. The sound is realistic and convincing.

    The use of 3 presets provide interesting possibilities. I configured to have a clean, crunch and a distortion. Nothing extraordinary, but on a guitar on a bass that's more rare. Clean and pleasant crunch.
    The sound is more like a crunch distortion cranked to a real distortion. We should not seek a fuzz. When you push the drive, it blows a lot, we must allow it only when playing or provide a noise gate.

    Which instruments do you use?
    I use it on a GL Asat playing with a pick. I also used a Precision. By forcing the distortion on the grain loses much of the low but clean and crunch ca is really worth the grain of the instrument.

    OVERALL OPINION

    How long have you use it?
    I bought it at its output, so I had ample time to test it.

    What is so special that you like most and least?
    I bought it originally to improve my sound and avoid depending too much amps found in the various studios to repeat: It sets the amp with a sound as neutral as possible and this is the amp that is not the job.
    Since then, I am fitted with a SVT3-PRO without thinking that the amp no longer serve but it is still there: Even the cleans it brings a little something that I can not find with the amp alone .

    I could test it recently on the record ID for the sounds it cleans great.
    on the other hand, as soon as you drive up to the sounds crunch / distortion ca becomes too dry, it must then pair it with a microphone on the amp to keep the roundness. It should be possible to catch the blow with plugins simulation baffles or other treatments but I have not dug.

    Have you tried many other models before buying it?
    No, no amp is suitable for what I want so I have not done a comparison.
    It's mostly laziness, we should find equivalent things (and cheaper?) In competition.

    How would you rate the quality / price?
    Honest rather saw the possibilities of the craft.

    A very interesting drive but not a fuzz either.

    UTILIZATION

    Nothing to say except that the settings are very precise and there is a system of LED clognotante that finds its settings quickly, let me explain, there are three banks and the pots are not motorized but pots when you move a flashing light and when you put the same level as the current bank remains on, it can be unclear but the use is convenient, simple and intuitive as possible.

    SOUND QUALITY

    The sound is really powerful, I use a jazz bass marcus miller preamp with a Deluxe J East and ampeg b1-re (low-end ampeg) with a baffle 15 'classic and it was already very good but really grows ca sound
