Yes, pricy but well worth it imo. Should be great at bass bashes too, so you can try other basses using your own wazas!

Mine just arrived!!! Absolutely fantastic. I've had an hour or so to get set up (took 2 mins) and have given everything a very quick whirl. Essentially, I've got everything I love about my beloved VB99 in a pair of headphones (minus the GK pickup stuff). I set everything flat, added a touch of Boss Limiter (same settings I use normally) and a tiny bit of reverb, turned the '3D' effect off, and bang, there it is - a beautifully full and detailed unadulterated bass sound. I had a play with the 3D stuff, which I think will be great, especially when you turn your head and get a subtle impression of an amp in front of you. It paired with my phone for playing along with music and the app itself seamlessly. I will probably use them as headphones even when I'm not using the transmitter. I plugged the transmitter into the output of my Backbeat so I could feel the rumble and it was perfect - of course you can plug it right into your bass, or a pedal. VERY little noise, barely audible and you know how picky I am about that. I'm really really pleased with them. I'll do a full review once I've had a proper play - but this is basically my dream product!!

Elixir solved that problem already 😊

Both born in 1983 (same as me!)

I do t think I’ve ever tried it but reckon I’d like it. I love corned beef which has a similar vibe

Yeah for £70

I just put in the maximum I’d like to pay when I see something and let god take care of the rest. Normally I lose and end up buying it elsewhere cheaper. Ho hum. Occasionally it works but I don’t stress about it.

I think in 2017 it was called something else tbh

Blackstar U500 (and possibly others in the 'Unity' range) Actually a very pleasing compressor - single knob, threshold and ratio changes as you turn. Works better at higher settings, sounds more like a limiter.

Whereas I'd say it's the MOST important thing

Weird - last time I used Windows I think some weirdness around .jpg files was corrected by renaming them .jpeg but think that was a good few years ago now

Looks great, really nice dark blue, quite unusual. Enjoy

I don't know why I'm so keen on battery power, but it's partly due to the way that I use pedals. Basically, for me they are fun 'toys' that I like to play with at home or when heading out to a jam (we alternate between a 'live' jam or a studio jam) I throw a couple that I'm currently enjoying in my kit box. I am not 'wedded' to any enough that I want to build a pedalboard and I don't want to add a PSU to my kit for powering them either. I really don't like miniturisation of objects that require on the other hand a bulky PSU which defeats the point (Ok less a 'thing' if you have several and use one supply) but I like it when designers apply themselves to maximising space and the 9v limitations to achieve a great sound in a small package, like E.W.S do with the 'Stormy Bass Drive', which ups the voltage internally whilst still only drawing something like 20mah from a battery in a box the size of any of those Mooer pedals. Oh and it sounds amazing which is also nice. Even the Original and Haz Mutron take batts, as do many of the older pedals of my youth. Nowadays people like Darkglass say they don't take batteries for 'environmental reasons' which I don't fully endorse when most of us have more power adapters then we can shake a stick at! See, I told you it probably doesn't make any sense... but I suppose it saves me money in the long run? I use a 1spot at home for auditioning pedals at my desk which I often use whether the pedal takes batts or not, just for kicks

I have read other comments about it not handling a hot bass - I think one was a review on Reverb or some other shop. Whilst it was possible to get it to sound like a Bassballs, and it probably responded more evenly, it cut some top and bottom end, and I missed the 'distortion' on top of the vowelly sound which helps squelch things up in a live setting so nicely, despite sounding a bit thin on its own. It might work really well for some, but it wasn't for me - the graphics were cool and I like the soft touch switch, but the top row knobs were too big and the lack of a battery option is always a turn off for me personally (not many other people though it seems).

Cool - glad you sorted it. We'll leave the thread here if that's OK just in case someone else is looking for a solution.

What file extension are you seeing on your ‘uploaded’ pics?

In general I’m happy to pay more for stuff made in the UK. Good on ‘em

Adam bought my pre-amp, perfect deal and cool guy 😎 thanks Adam!

Yeah - mine clipped a tiny bit with the stingray with the 'colour' turned right up. The SB1 sent it into a frenzy (despite being passive it's the loudest bass I've ever had and tbh hardly any pedals can handle it!)

I think you can do it through any official retailer.
