GAS brewing... will check out the examples for bass.

That's what I wanted to know about Div/Mix thank you. Next question is, 'Does the GX-10 have the same Div/Mix options as its big brother GX-100?'

So the Boss video includes some bass playing so I assume there wont be a GX-10b anytime soon. Parallel signal paths on the cards but remains to be seen what you can do within 'Div' and 'Mix'... Looks promising though.

A Bluetooth adapter judging by Andertons' site (£44.99). £350 is not a bad price if the parallel signal path goodness can be frequency split...

Agree with the sentiment of the thread - probably more refinement than innovation, but Felix P. doesn't half make it sound good!

It was. I was just having a joke at the OP who didn't check these forums!

John Nettles?

Yes, I've been enjoying the 'Enigmatic' videos by Dumble-hungry guitarists. It's market forces and the numbers of bass players. Not sure any bass amps are as iconic as the 5150s and Twin Reverbs, etc of this world. Probably not enough demand for dedicated amp pedals but maybe a bass version with a range of IRs?

So two compressors in series? Interesting. That's, I think more unusual than the parallel signal path dual compressor route. Some sound clips would be good?

Multi-FX are getting cheaper. No dedicated bass patches but worth a squirt and a bit of editing surely?

You're quite right but I enjoy researching new pedals. I'll add another crossover but this has individual compressors for each path: https://reverb.com/uk/item/81597731-pjb-phil-jones-bass-x2c-dual-band-compressor-crossover

Ooh! Not seen that one before...

...is a phrase I didn't expect to read! Good input though thank you.

BC'ers, Hankering to try signal splitting ah la Squire, Sheehan and others to combine clean and dirt signals or paths with different compression and effects. I know the top-end multi-FX can split their signals for separate effects processing before recombining them but I wondered if any of you have had success doing this with any of the new budget units appearing? (I know the Boss LS2 is always an option but a) I don't have all the pedals I'd need and b) I'd like to try splitting the signal by frequency as opposed to having two 'full-range' signals if possible.) Thoughts? Experiences?

Yes, great interview and he seems such a cool guy - probably why he's got so many (good) gigs over the years. Here's hoping the Beat tour makes it over to here in the UK next year.

Gene Simmons vibe about it...

'Form ever follows function'! These are great, handy basses whose tone belies their compact size and weight. I have the 6-er and it's great. The multi-scale helps even the tone and tension of the strings but I have to say, other than around the 5-8 frets, I find it disorientating, particularly in the upper registers when the multi-scale gets extreme. This negative effect can be greatly reduced with good practise in not looking at the fretboard when playing. That said, I'm not entirely sure I'd have a bass with it again unless they did a less extreme multi-scale, say, like their 'Q' series guitars.

Very Dusty!

That's a 'no excuses' bass! There's no way that's holding you back so it's all up to you!

Always wanted a Palaedium. They were cheap as chips as I recall but a nice bass. Jeff Berlin designed or inspired?

I've got one too. Use it as my sound interface/card and for a bit of limiting. Programming on is a breeze on a PC although the levels and multiple gains over an effect-chain can quickly get out of hand/noisy. The public sound library I think still only has two contributions from Boss artists. Both terrible. As is the tracking on pitch-shifting and the tuner. So a bit of a mixed feast with some quite distinct positives and negatives. ** Edit my comments refer to a GT-1B not 10B sorry **

Taking awhile for these to roll out it seems. Looks like £280 mark price wise. Looking forward to trying one.

Ooh he was great! Just watching him paired with Bill Bruford for David Torn earlier:
