I got a free ROS box.....

[teeder]

Ya, I like it!

Not done on a 4001, but Led Zeppelin's, "Heartbreaker" features JPJ using tremolo.

Yep! I almost hear sort of a Leslie effect on that one.

Jimmy Page played his guitar though a Leslie sometimes, so maybe JPJ gave it a whirl.

What you did there, I see it.

[Lefty4003S8]

Funny......I have a ROS box...and mine doesn't do HALF the things yours does

Congrats Jeff!!! Sounds like a COOL piece of equipment you have there.

(BTW Jeff....you beat me to the "Starship Trooper" suggestion for tremolo bass effect)

But on topic I'm pretty sure I read that JPJ played through his Leslie on Heartbreaker.

.......when I bought a Strymon Flint! The '4001 sounds pretty amazing with it.

Now that is a great idea

Any low-end suckage on the bass with the effects minimally engaged Jeff?

I did notice it is TBP, so that's nice. I'm thinking of using one at the front of my signal chain to do the ROS -> bridge pickup effects vs. neck pickup effects, then join them back with an LS-6.

It's both, actually. If you hold the bypass switch when plugging the pedal in you can toggle between analog bypass / buffered bypass. Buffered mode lets you have decaying trails after you turn the effect off, and the dry mix is still analog.

[jps]

Erik got it! Yes, you can choose between TBP or buffered (I usually keep it to buffered as it sounds excellent and it allows reverb trails to decay vs. a sharp cutoff when turning the reverb off. There are some other cool/useful features on the pedal, and I assume other Strymon pedals, too. The fidelity is great, no suckage of tone that I can detect. A few of the controls have dual functions, such as the Tremolo Intensity and the Reverb Mix controls that double as gain trim controls to allow up to ±3dB relative to the dry signal if you want to have a boost or cut when that particular effect is engaged or to provide a preferred balance between them, for example.

Yep, I have a BlueSky and El Capistan and they both have "hidden" knob functions when you hold both footswitches down.

[jps]

I watched the videos for the El Capistan a couple weeks ago, very cool pedal! At first I was thinking the Flint was kind of pricy but then when I thought about that I was really getting two great pedals in one it seemed far more than reasonable, actually. I was going to buy a Fulltone SupaTrem-1 but after watching a bunch of videos for the Flint, there was no other choice, really.

[Grey]

They're expensive, but unlike a "boutique" overdrive with 15$ worth of components in a fancy enclosure I at least know what my money is getting me.

I ran a couple of Fender combos in stereo using the BlueSky, not something I plan to do often but it was fun to play with.
