I've spent years, flipping years searching for the right sound from my bass. This thing adds deep bass that moves lots of air, adds just the amount of drive you want to add alongside your clean signal and along with the EQ on your guitar or amp is all I've ever wanted. I use a Status Bass played through a Behringer Chorus (cheap but amazing) into a TC Eletrronic Compressor (the little one that lets you set it up via your mobile) into a Boss Bass enhancer (don't ever be without one of these) and into the Battalion which is then just tweeking but on a different level - so superb. Best pedal I've ever bought.

After a bit of experimentation I'm now really pleased with this. The eq is good and the compressor works well. It has all the features you need, although I don't use the distortion. I would have preffered to have dropped this feature and had a send/return between the compressor and the pre-amp to allow me to insert my Octaver.
