Remind me, did we all agree on the best bass pre-amp pedal?

I'll fish it out of the gigbag later and post them up

Here you go....using the clockface method

Drive...2
Treble...2
Bass...11.30
Level...maxed
Presence...2
Blend...12

Amp set completely flat but with bass boost engaged
Compression drivers on cabs backed off about 25%

I have the former Twister Preamp and ist is fantastic for giving Tube-Dirt to a clean amp or DI-recording or as a complete 2-channel Preamp with a separate Power-amp. I use it for all three and love it, but the Emperor should be even better.

My BD121 arrived. Awesome for £20. My Ashdown Five 15 practice amp has come alive :) Haven't tried the suggested settings yet but I used these and it sounded great for a bit of UB40 Red Red Wine:

Drive 2 O Clock
Treble 11 O Clock
Bass full
Level 12 O Clock
Presence 12 O Clock
Blend 3 O Clock
GND Lift on ( not sure about that but if it cancels hum great )

Just ordered one of these:

At this price it's worth the gamble.

Be interested to hear what you think of that when it arrives.

Got my ebay BDI21 today, feels weightier and more substantial than I expected it to for the price.
Haven't had that long to play with it but I like it a lot so far, really easy to dial a nice sound, I really
didn't expect a pedal at this end of the market to be anywhere near as good as it is, it'd still seem
like a solid piece of kit for several times the price!
