    A well done comparison. As a beginner bass player I went with Parallax and I'm pretty happy with it.
    Thanks for the help:)

    I picked up the Darkglass last year and like it OK. Your vid has definitely sold me on the versatility of the Parallax. Will definitely pick that up during the next NerualDSP sale. Thanks!

    I own the Darkglass X Ultra pedal, love it but Its too harsh most of the time, I think I will go for the Darkglass Ultra plug in

    Maybe a weird question for a bass plugin demo video, but were you using amp modelling/plugins for the electric guitar tone at 2:04 ? If so, what are you using? Love the tone

    This was a really good review of these two beasts! I say the *Parallax* because it just seems like it has more to offer, So I bought it. Although the Darkglass is on sale right now, Hmmm...…..

      Does parallax work at all for styles other than metal? Like could you throw it in an indie/pop song?

    Got parallax, but wish I got the dark glass. I don't go for the modern metal type of tone typically, and like just a great clean tone at times, but also like a gnarly dirt that has it's own space. Parallax is a bit harsh for the kind of mixes I tend to make, but when it works it works great! Just not as versatile as I would like.

      @richiejackson9321 4 года назад

      I’m on the fence here. DG also has the amp sim options too, yeah? They both look versatile, but I’m also not a metal player (more like alt rock, QOTSA band style. My influences are more along the lines of Squire, Geddy Lee and others. Gotta have that punch and grit)

    probably a stupid question but do you hav the option of not using distortion ?

    • @marcpeiron_studio
      @marcpeiron_studio  4 года назад +1

      Yes in darkglass. No in Parallax (unless you disable mid and high bands and expand the lower one, but it's not a desirable sound at all)

    Hola! Gracias por el vídeo, justo estoy mirando en comprar uno de los dos ahora que tienen descuento y ando echo un lío. Creo que me parece algo mas versátil el darkglass... El parallax suena muy bien, pero es fácil que se descontrole un poco en distorsiones en las frecuencias agudas haciendo que suene algo chicharra... es la impresión que me da, no soy un experto, de hecho soy guitarrista y no bajista... Jajaja... Buena review! Se agradece! Saludos!

    • @marcpeiron_studio
      @marcpeiron_studio  4 года назад +1

      En términos de versatilidad yo creo que lo es más el Parallax, ya que tienes más control sobre donde afecta la distorsion, dos módulos de distor separados. Pero sí que tienes razón que puede descontrolarse más fácilmente. El Darkglass tiene ese sonido característico que nunca te puede defraudar, pero no llega a una distorsion como de guitarra (que puedes conseguir con el Parallax). Todo es dependiendo del uso que quieras hacer ;)

  • @komba2675

    At the moment I am using the Darkglass in front of the Parallax, so I'm using them both and really dig the sound to be honest, do you think that could be too much in the mixing-context?
    Pretty new to all that recording stuff^^
    Thanks alot mate

    • @marcpeiron_studio
      @marcpeiron_studio  4 года назад +2

      No, as long as you don't drive Darkglass too much and end up with a messy tone. If it sounds good, it's ok! You can use Darkglass as a tone shaper, as a preamp (like the Darkglass tone capsule included in Dingwall bases) and then distort it with Parallax.

      I know that feeling bro. I would suggest you go to facebook group called "audio plug-in buy/sell market place" or "neural dsp plugins marketplace" and try to sell it there. You may also find darkglass for a good price there.
