bartelby Posted October 8, 2019 Posted October 8, 2019 "In addition to Steve Harris’ personal setting, sample settings styles include: • Phil Lynott • Lemmy • Geezer • Jamerson • Cliff Burton • Genesis • Deep Purple" Sounds rather promising! I wish product manufacturers would have demo videos ready at the same time as they announce stuff. Quote
dave_bass5 Posted October 8, 2019 Posted October 8, 2019 Not sure what to make of this. Not what i was expecting. Seems lacking compared to the other FR boxes. Cant quite figure out the 'blurb' Is it saying the SH went on tour without a rig, but having received this he can now do the gigs lol. Quote
bartelby Posted October 8, 2019 Posted October 8, 2019 It’s not a fly rig. But a Steve Harris equivalent of the dUg preamp. Quote

Yeah, i used the wrong term, but still, i was expecting at least a compressor. Anyway, am i right tin thinking its like a 2 gain/level stage BDDI, but with more EQ options, and instead of being based on a Ampeg its now based on Marshall cabs? Could be quite cool for the Bruce Foxton tone i guess. Still interested. Quote
bartelby Posted October 8, 2019 Posted October 8, 2019 I'm guessing it's based on his Hiwatt clone preamp and the cab sim is voiced for the EV loaded Marshalls. The 2 gains are independent switched. One or the other... Quote
Daz39 Posted October 8, 2019 Posted October 8, 2019 (edited) Does it need to be quite so large?! Looks like a lot of painted space with nowt on it. Although, looking at the blurb, I am very pleased they mentioned 'clank' as what happens when you press the Bite switch. I'm going to be a resident of Yorkshire now and say: 'How much?'

Excluding the Bite, speaker sim and different EQ, its similar to how my COG 66 works, which i really like for its switchable Gain/level stages, but using just one EQ path. Do we know RRP yet?

If the foot switches were too close it would be difficult to use in a live setting if you have large feet. At least, that's my experience. 1 Quote

Having reviewed the DP-3X, it's not actually that large, the controls are really small! Quote

LewisK1975 Posted October 8, 2019 Posted October 8, 2019 I would have expected a single knob compressor as well. Still...... Quote

Cuzzie Posted October 8, 2019 Posted October 8, 2019 @Osiris will confirm I have spring rolls for fingers and spades for hands But it’s not that big - it will fit in your jeans pockets, unless you where those crap skinny ones before you say it, no I am not about to dump it in the bin and yes I Colour code my socks for the day of the week! 1 Quote

Daz39 Posted October 8, 2019 Posted October 8, 2019 Ok. Its very cool. At least i won’t be able to afford it! Quote
Stofferson Posted October 9, 2019 Posted October 9, 2019 Emailed the UK Distribution, RRP and timings etc. Anyone need a kidney? I got 2?? Quote

That's almost Helix Stomp money. Much as I love Steve Harris's sound I can't see me getting the pedal if it's going to be that expensive. Quote

Crazy price, thats the cost of a head. Maybe the street price will be lower. Edited October 9, 2019 by dave_bass5 Quote
