Thats the benefit if you can of buying new, try and then send back if you know it’s not right. its one of the reasons I chose Demon Pedals and KMA Audio Machines. I bought direct from them with a 14 day full refund guarantee as well as their 5 year warranty. Perfect. Keep is up to date with the mini AO

For a minute I had no idea who Mrs C was, then I realised it was based on my avatar 🤣🤦🏾‍♂️ I was thinking about putting Mrs K to hard work, I cannot condone keys in a bowl, no one ever picks mine.....

Does that mean Mrs K will appear in the for sale section? If so i’ll Place my bid now. She’s lovely

@Al Krow does Mrs Krow know you are considering an acquisition or a DOWNGRADE trade....?

Too true, not having a clue and an open mind can be the path to enlightenment. something will click and resonate

Good man, excellent resolution all around, if you do get the chance to play a Two Notes and have a noodle, you should definitely do it. Personally I had a happy accident in finding out how it stacked with a Hartke VXL that was pleasing to me and what I play, and have got various different tones at a kick in and off. Hooe you find your combination of all or some of your pedals. @Al Krow jest - never- he’s not that funny 😂

@dave_bass5 thank you for recognising I am not a gear pusher but a gear thinker and balancer. If there are weak minded souls out there that can be fooled by a simple Jedi mind trick that is not our fault......

Mate, I think you are spot on for you and you have it in a nutshell, from what I can read you have written. My suspicion about the BDDI and compression is that the Sansamp compresses the signal anyway and adding further compression squashes it more than Big daddy in a wrestling fight. You will have loads of fun with the DG box, and then you can sit and play with all things in the chain, different orders (compression beginning/end/mid chain) get the sound you want and then either lay aside the box you don’t need in case you change your mind later, or move something out. Experimentation is the key and a whole heap of fun. Cant wait to hear how it goes

That’s the spirit 👍🏾

@dave_bass5 and @Al Krow just checking you both know that the vintage ultra is different from the vintage deluxe. If you wanted the sound of the vintage microtubes pedal with an EQ, then you wanted the deluxe. The Ultra will do you a fine EQ and sound, there is no doubt about that, but it will be different and will in no way be comparable to what the Two Notes May or may not offer you. Nothing wrong it, but it is something to make note of. Again the AO is a completely different beast. I would not compare any of those pedals actually together as they all do a different job albeit with a modicum of crossover, but it is still a good pedal. @dave_bass5 don’t be swayed by the nay sayers like @Al Krow about compression. We have this discussion ad nauseum as whatever you do, looking at your chain you have already added compression to your chain, so you are doing it! Cali76 is more than a compressor. I am sure you have made the right decision for you and hope you get the sound you want. Let us know

I was considering a small purchase on a credit card to see what happens so I have buyer protection. Hmmm.....

Let’s hope for some good NAMM footage as a start

I think you are spot on with what the A channel will give you. See how you get on with the LeBass and Cali, you can set it up to push the signal to eeek even more out of it. Like I said I am very biased, but if I compare any of my Cali’s vs the MXR and DG compressors I had, there is no comparison, it’s not just the compression, it’s the extra bit of juice it gives. You are right about having money tied up, but the Cali76 is not a massive depreciating asset like other pedals, so as long as it is on good nick you are sorted, plus it should sell pretty quick whenever you do decide to mive it on. Keep it as a legacy fornyout descendants!

Yep seen this. very exciting, having just built my very own dUg tone it then arrives, in built tuner as well. dUg in a fly rig, what more can you want?!

The Two Notes is big for a nano+ butbit May work if you place it sideways. It will fit in a 3 rail metro pedal board snug as a bug in a rug. If I were you I absolutely would not get rid of the Cali76 CB, you will probably regret it and realise what it did, only after losing it. You May find the Two Notes usurps the BDDI, but that will be your ears buddy, there is no right or wrong here. Certainly between the B channel stacked with the BDDI or hot or cold fusion etc. There are a bunch of sounds at your finger tips. Yes I am biased, towards the Cali and the Two Notes. I don’t know anyone that does not like them, or boasts about their quality, you may love it like I do. No rights or wrongs here, just right and righter

@Al Krow 2 -3 people may move it on, it’s an absolute tidal wave tsunami of dissenters and nay sayers. If you bought shares in Two Notes i’d Sell right now...... Remeber on the DC5 you have a voltage select switch on the ports as well how much mA it puts out so it’s very useable either with a current summing cable I sent a link to or a stack flex. I Power Cali compressors and Two Notes and all sorts from the DC5. You will have no worries with it.

@dannybuoy is right, you won’t get any problems with less current draw, but it may not be as effective in how it works. As a rule a pedal will only draw what it can/needs to a max, so even if you connected it to something with a 5000mA capacity it will still only draw what it needs which if I remember correctly is 500mA. Voltage as I said is different, you have to get it right or it’s a cooked pedal.

+1 hercules I have a Tri one for my basses

https://www.drstrings.com/bass-ddt not cheap, but my fave, just brilliant

Cioks are great Decibel 11 hot stone deluxe never let me down, great piece of kit

Hi mate http://cioks.com/products/parallel-adapter-flex/ this is the cable you need as it summates the current NOT the voltage. summing the voltage = a fried pedal! i do this with my Two Notes and Cioks DC5 Really easy to do, Two Notes is worth every penny

I suppose if they said do something in the background like tune your bass, they could have recited the complete works or George R Martin going through all those strings!

@12stringbassist how about photos of you on the telly with it as well?! nice set up!

I would argue about dirt, delay etc not being subtle, of course they can be and be very useful that way
