just a heads up for Beyerdynamic users. Been testing this out for a couple of days. It seems to do what it says and is free. It makes quite a difference with my 700 pro X. It smooths the high end quite a bit. I didnt realsie how harsh they are until i tried this. Great for general listening but not as flat as i had hoped.

At least people won’t (or shouldn’t, but who knows…) moan that it’s octave tracking is rubbish and that the synth patches aren’t any good 🤣

Thanks. It looks like a step up from the small bass combos I’ve been looking at. Will get one ordered before the next rehearsal.

I didnt notice this bit before. Makes it a bit more interesting for me 'The MIDI interface enables deep editing of parameters for amplifiers, blendable IRs, effects and EQ. The IR section includes a SansAmp IR, a curated collection of modifiable IRs, the ability to custom blend them, as well as upload your favorite external IRs. Clear, uncomplicated graphics, and intuitive controls provide ease of use to achieve your desired tones.'

Im currently in a band that rehearse in the singers living room. We have a drum kit (thats has dampening pads) and the two guitars use smallish amps but we dont play too loud I go through an old Peavey 150watt 1x15 combo, but it's kept in the adjacent room, with plants on top lol. Im loath to turn it up as it's in a glass conservatory so the neighbours will get annoyed. I can hear it ok most of the time. Singer won't let me move it before you mention it. The issue I have is before it's a room away, there is a lack of definition by the time it gets to my ears. I can use EQ, but that still wouldn't fix the glass room and reflections issue. Anyway, im thinking of getting the above speaker that I can use in the same room as the band. Play quieter, get heard with a bit less bloom. I was looking at things like the Joyo 30watt but this seems more practical. Just wondered if anyone has any thoughts. I will never need to gig it or use it in a larger rehearsal room, I have other things for that, but this seems small and cheap enough that I'll just leave it at the singers house.

Looks like it a has a mid para EQ with is great news if it does. I have a couple of mid settings on my Microbass 3 that I use for different things. Would be great to have these programmed in.

For me its all i could want, or at least need. No expression pedal makes it smaller, which is what i always look for and has put me off so many other boxes. Im using a GP-50 at the moment and other than always on Ampeg NAMM or sim, both quite restricted in tone options (although good enough) i only use a bit of Comp and Chorus. I dont need to make silly noises liek synth or filter stuff, and have no need for any real time control. What i miss is using my BDDI, but im limiting myself to only use one box these days, as this works. There have been a few Ampeg style boxes ive wanted, but without the chorus and comp, so not ideal.

Well he did win 😂

Yeah but with IEM’s in and on stage with spill, ambient etc, you still have more than just bass in your ears, so its still not really going to be noticeable IMO.

Mine are in the house somewhere so i expect ill find one or two again soon. Not going to buy any more.

3 lost already 😂

This is how i see it. IF it has the sound of the BDDI, it will be a good update, especially as it has Chorus and comp as well. Id love to get a programable BDDI but they dont have the MKII Mid control, which i really liked in the BDDI KMII. Looking at it, it seems to have a mid sweep and Q, maybe more like a cut down Q-strip than the old BDDI, which elevates it even higher for me.

Personally i think this will sound fine. I don't think T21 would bring something out that they would ruin their reputation. As for analogue vs digital, once out of the bedroom i cant see what difference it will make to anyone. This is 2026, are we still having that discussion 😂

Started and finished ? 😬

Yeah, at the earliest. And who knows what the price will be if Trump hasn’t calmed down 🙄
