wah 160$ fer the bass attack...kinda ex compared the luthermusic's price...so what u think of the gadget pyro? is it worth buying? How far can a bassist maximise their playing with the help of the bass attack?

If youre totally uhappy with your passive bass's sound live or at recording, go for it. By unhappy i mean, you feel that its not loud enough, not enough lows or highs for your taste etc. But dont expect this box to act as a clean/fuzz stomp box. Its not easy to balance both volume settings effectively.

as far as i remember. You gotta keep the Shape button on, unless you desire a great difference in volumes. For active basses, perhaps if youre not satisfied with your onboard treble boost, the bright control might be the fine-tuning answer to very high frenquencies. But remember its hissy. Also there's a Harmonic control. It does something complex to every note you play, something about 200hz 400hz steps etc etc above the fundamental. Dont ask me i blur. All in all, they claim to emulate a tube amp's warmth. So go TRY it to be sure. Gd luck.

I didn't really like it. Just didn't have that feel for me. You can try for yourself if you want. Try it on something unbiased. Use a cheap bass to try it on and a small practise amp. You'll get what it has to offer. If it sounds good on that kind of set up, it'll sound better on better set ups.
don't bother using the harmonics for distortion though... it'll sound pretty shite if you do.
There's this website www.harmony-central.com. It actually gives you lots of user reviews on musical equipment and they really have a huge collection of reviews on a huge amount of equipment. Definitely can find out more about the harke as well as the sansamp. Cheers. :wink:
sad to say , HC has nearly super positive ( rating of 7 and above on almost every product rated)
its useful but not exactly very reliable in the sense that the opinion raised on it may be faked , skewed or unrealistic. i suggest u take things from HC with a pinch of salt and try to test it out and trust your own ears.
