To be fair, you did say they do not stack - not that you just couldn't hear a difference. I might not hear any difference either, but my ears aren't as good as a 'scope. I do wonder if the changes would be more obvious with different signal chains / instruments. That might be a fun thing to do when mine arrives. Compare guitar and bass use and maybe even a keyboard too.

Here's a video using a 'scope At 7mins it shows that they do stack - it's subtle, but there's a trace change. JPTR Jive - Soaking your Sound in Saucy Saturation (youtube.com) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uJKWkaD7Mxc&ab_channel=StompboxBreakdown Also - if that circuit is accurate - then it shows that the diodes are able to run together.

If that was the case - why does the demo on their site show 2 switches activated for some of the sounds?

Ooo! I have a shipping email! Assuming Germany to UK is as efficient as ever these days I might get it next week!

That’s Gross. No idea what his overheads are.

Leave it on then! 🤣

The Tonex captures of the Noble are supposed to be very good. I’m thinking of getting one even though I usually use a T21 Paradriver for a DI.

Be aware that the neck J pickup is not in the same place as a P pickup would be.

OC-5 It’s ace.

I ordered on Monday and haven’t had a “shipped” note yet.

The site says he builds in batches so give him some (unspecified) time.

I mean for general orders.

When he builds in batches - how long does it usually take?

Wow! My 2 main basses are 2.9kg and 2.6kg!

The cab is part of the tone generation. That's why there are different choices. Amps sound vastly different with different cabs. FRFR cabs are relatively new in the bass world.

Fixed that for you.

That's lovely! Always fancied a 4 string version but the weight is too much for me, alas. Shame - they really do sound different to everything else.

These two and...

The tone I liked best was the Tonehammer DI without any cab on it at all!

I don't do waiting very well! There's no hint of a release date either - so it could be 2 years away. Admittedly now that I've ordered the regular one it's very likely it will be released tomorrow! That's what normally happens when I buy something!

I've given in and ordered one. Hopefully I won't get pinged by customs.

On the Jive, do the switches stack or is it 1 at a time? Different YouTube reviews say different things!

Piano player in a bar, playing old standards to a room that doesn’t care. This drunk guy wanders over and says “Do you do requests? I want to sing” Pianist says ‘why not. Nobody will get upset’ So the drunk guy says “ok. I want to do ‘Life is a bowl of cherries’ but I want you to play it in 5/4 time. Pianist says “But it’s in 4/4. It won’t work.” Guy, getting a bit aggressive says “I want ‘Life is a bowl of cherries’ in 5/4 time, pal!” Pianst says “ok, ok” and starts playing in 5/4 Guy starts singing… ”Life is just a bowl of f*ckiiiiing cherries….” (I had my coat on before I started).

Anyone tried any of the other pedals?
