    I use Darkglass stuff for clean tones and it’s great. My favourite preamp by far. I wish the official demos would show that instead of gain set to 99999999999

    • @Tangalang22
      @Tangalang22 5 лет назад +8

      While I agree darkglass has great clean tones they should brag and showcase, Jacob doesn't use a lot of gain. Mostly the gain is used as a high mid boost and clank

    I just picked one up for myself. This video does a great job of being brief, comprehensive, and having a good balance of demoing, talking, and even having a great sound setup portion. I’m excited to see how my Warwick Thumb will sound through this!

      @joshuawhittaker3347 4 года назад +4

      I feel that. I honestly never liked the dingwall tone that much. There are better and cheaper basses out there. But Dingwall probably paid to advertise their basses on these videos.

    Hi,
    1) you think its good for playing good Charlotte, sum 41 , billy Talent etc offspring?
    2) you also think it sounds better than boss odb3 when we look at the overdrive?
    3) also do you prefer this microtube X or you prefer alpha omicron?

      Yes basically the same concept. Although Parallax also includes a Mid Drive section besides the High Drive, but I have both and are pretty much the same. Parallax sounds cleaner and punchier in the Daw and XU to go with the amp.

      @Toxic Potato not the point at all. But when you wanna sell a pedal it help a lot to make demo with other bass the see the full range not. Almost 95% of the Darkglass demo featur Dingwall... Would be great to have some with a jazz a precision a musicman etc... My opinion thats it.

      DekhruelBass there are plenty of demos with people who don’t use dingwalls. You just have to look for them. I believe there are some on Darkglass’ Instagram page.
