ebs iq: new and old editions

[ahpook]

anybody know if there's any difference in sound between the two models ?

i've seen the tech spec on the ebs site....just wondered about the sonics stuff.

New ones have true bypass. Thats it.

I have a newer Dynaverb and A/Bed it against an older 'simulated bypass' version. Both the effects engaged showed no audible difference (both sounded great) but the true bypass certainly made a difference when the effect wasn't engaged. Consequently, I don't mind leaving the pedal in my signal chain.

I tried an older bass iq and loved it so the true by-pass will be a bonus. As for the new 24bit circuitry that EBS have included. Any difference will be negligible but it's a great pedal anyway. Get it from one of the big German on-line stores. If you don't like it, send it back. That's what I intend to do with a Stanley Clarke wah soon.

thanks for the thoughts folks...
