Hey everyone, thanks so much for the feedback! This is a video I've been meaning to make for quite some time now, and it seemed like good timing, since the Darkglass Alpha•Omega came out recently and couldn't be left out. I've read all the comments here and on other social medias and took it all into consideration. There are definitely some pedals lacking, but I used what I have and it still serves a purpose. Definitely gonna work on some other shootouts.
If you liked the video, please subscribe! I have a ton of other stuff and much more coming up.
Cheers from Brazil!
My son is building a bass pedal board for church which will have a Sansamp, after messing with it for a bit i found that the Blend all they way on and everything else at 12 o'clock is where it shines for me through my Gallien-Kruger 700RB. The blend wide open gives you that Ampeg SVT sound
Nice!!! Im think i buy the MXR
MXR all the way. I've matched full rack mounts with huge cabs with a little combo and my MXR
I don't think you know how to dial in the tech 21 pedal
Sans amp ❤
este review no le hace justicia al sansamp
Mxr ????
I was about to get the mxr m80, but the sansamp VT bass di sounds better! Great video dude!
I have the Sansamp V2 and MXR…..thats all I'll need!
I have that Sansamp, and live by it…
However
That B7K kept coming in as top 2 every time..
May be worth the spend to have both
MXR is the clear loser. And I’m a big fan of most of their guitar effects.
excelent video great rewiew!!!
very random test.
I've got the MXR and the SansAmp and have on occasions ran them together – you have to be careful which bit of the sound comes from which pedal, but when dialled in correctly it sounds monstrous.
i like MXR DI, it has noise gate + Phantom Ground, more gain !
A little distortion goes a long way for me.1 through 5 or 6 is okay, after that bass tone is ruined IMO. So count me as not being a distortion fanatic. No disrespect intended to those who love it.
Hey dudes.. You forget to push up treble in SansAmp pedal the whole test…..
Samsamp comeu poeira.. I like Darkglass microtubes
After trying a bunch of these bass pre/d.i. boxes, I came across a used Eden WTDI World Tour Direct Box/Preamp. It's a lot better than the others I have tried over the years. I had low expectations because I had never heard of it and I got it for cheap ($100 CAD), but it has been in use every time I've played my bass since. Gives me the sound I'm looking for.
sansamp is my favourite
Alpha Omega
Sansamp. Mxr is noisy. First dark glass is
Ok
The MXR pre has always quietly been really good and feature packed. It's just that SansAmp does it better, tbh. The MXR will definitely do ya, though!
