A bit, but mainly I have a super low action and very gentle right hand technique which means the limiter allows for the dynamics to come through and provide a 'stop' when I dig in or start slapping. I hope this doesn't get misquoted

That's why I prefer a limiter - you get all the punch and none of the spikes.

I only use limiters, and find the zoom one fine. It doesn't add any noise and feels very natural. I haven't played with the compressors yet but initial impressions are that they seem quite adjustable. It's good that you can adjust the signal chain and reorder the order of the pedals too.

Can't find anything myself. @charic might be able to find something!

Someone asks every year - it's not really very clear tbh!

It says 'Enter Promotional Code' in the box See you there!

We'll have some news on this soon - watch this space

Thanks, missed that.

They look very tactile - will be interesting to try them. Any idea how much £££?

I'll have a look for you and see what I can find. Cheers ped

Probably right - mines designed for Fender type basses, but I changed the internal foam inside the lid for some thinner stuff and now it comfortably holds my 2+2 and 2+3 paddle headstock basses.

Yeah I've got one. It's great, takes up less space than the Warwick rockstand it replaced. Can't remember how much mine was but less than this one I think.

Just fixed the links

Actually playing with it last night I found it vastly improved if you turn the ‘tone’ to zero. Give it a try. Pretty happy with it now.

I just bought a B1on here and have been playing with it this week. In short, it’s great! I’ve set up a clean patch with my usual settings (pre-amp, reverb, limiter) and it sounds almost as good as my VB99, albeit with a tiny bit more noise. For £25 used, that’s just incredible. Some initial impressions: + Tiny, light, battery powered, mostly I’m pleased about the great sounding limiter and the huge range of reverbs which I like. Really like also the chorus and ‘ensamble’ effects. Ideal companion for my mini bass for travelling/playing on the sofa. Feels good quality even though it’s plastic - really doubt I’d ever break it, but if I did, it’s easy to replace! Looper is excellent! - Can’t get the octaver sounding much good, probably need to experiment. Master vol is buried in the menu system but ok. Haven’t tried the distortions yet because I normally use them alongside octaver so will have to wait on that. Tap tempo would have been nice. Would prefer 35mm headphone socket. Although the unit is very quiet indeed there is a slight digital artefact audiable if listening fir it after a sustaining note - not noticeable in normal playing but it’s there. Compared to my old Pandora and Vox units it’s miles ahead, though. 5 effects at once is usually plenty but it would be nice to have more lined up but turned off. I understand it can’t process more then 5 simultaneously. Instead I’ve cloned my main setting into the first three patches with different effects lined up and ‘off’ but set up. Oh finally engaging pedals in the chain but off is a bit fiddly; I’m used to pressing a single button to engage every effect in the chain in real time. I feel like a fool saying anything bad about it for the price. It’s amazing! Ok it requires a bit of adjustment in workflow but I actually really enjoy playing with sub menus and editors. I’m looking forward to spending more time with it and getting that octaver right. Also the synths look fun. And the filters. The phasers sound cool too. Lol.

Surely the string tree isn't essential anyway - is it?

(I'll issue the warning later, Dad)

I found mine REALLY nosy and poor build quality. Sent it straight back, and I NEVER send things back!

@lownote12 all sorted?

Ah sorry! Interesting to hear the bass anyway As you were.

An electro-acoustic of some sort I think

All looks OK my end now - and looks like you've posted the ad? Let me know if you have any further probs

There’s none. Only as much as using a normal pickup in a normal bass. Ask Roland if you must!

No payment my end - it says ‘pending’ so when it goes through you’ll get a receipt from us and it’ll allow you to post instantly. Perhaps check the card and fund source? Cheers
