Re: Bass effects!
Ok, this is my current pedalboard that I'm almost happy with. Its a dual bass/guitar board but as I'm messing around with bass mostly, I posted it here.
So path is - Bass Whammy - ABY pedal
A goes to SD-1, then FuzzieBro to Rangemaster clone to Caverns
B goes to SY-200
Am fiddling about with external set up, currently this lot is into my Pod Go with synth going direct into the mixer, but I need to experiment further. My NuX MG-30 will be used for synth output effects.
Anyway, it'll come together.

Not bad compared to guitar whammy and an extra hand shandy off sale price

No I haven’t but Music Planet stock them so you should be able to try it out.

Re: Bass effects!
I had a go of a battalion. It’s fine. For the price it’s great, tonally a bit ragged for me.

Re: Bass effects!
Not sure on the new Diamond BCP/EQ
It’s good but replace the BCP-1 great??? Not sure
Definitely need to order a voltage doubler and run at 18volts
Few observations (all using the old Ashdown Klystrom SS 400 and Ashdown Celestion 10” speakers
70’s Fender Precision w/ flats (Chromes)
This my go to sound and the New BCP/ EQ isn’t exactly the same. It’s noticeably much quieter which needs to be watched / remembered if you jump a pedal in front of it.
No headroom issues. The extra 500hz option for the Tilt EQ is a great addition
EBMM Stingray Fretless 2EQ Fretless w/ flats (Chromes)
Level at 1 o’clock, Comp at 1, Mids at 10, Tilt at 10 switch at 250hz
Rolled of both Treble and bass on the instrument to 20% and 40% is my fingerstyle 16th note thing plucking just on the neck side of the pick up
Turning the Mids to 3 o’clock and tilt to 1:30 and boosting the instruments Treble to 75% was fantastic with the Tech21 Chorus behind it. I hardly ever use Chorus but this was almost tasteful not cheesy
The biggest issue I have with the new model is volume variables and it’s extremely late to trigger the compression threshold. Presently it’s a Tone Enhancement pedal not an actual compressor for me

Re: Bass effects!
Whilst I thought the settings here would be ‘wrong’ I really like this , notes on the D and G strings aren’t “disappearing “

Re: Bass effects!
IME filters for Bass Guitar don’t necessarily cut through particularly well or have to wide of a volume change

Re: Bass effects!
This is a great setting as well. The Pedal is imo quiet so I do goose its volume. Fantastic with light compression from the Diamond BCP/EQ afterwards

Re: Bass effects!
Diamond BCP/EQ is absolutely fantastic as a post filter limiter. Run it behind the Dreadbox, SGFX and 3Leaf Audio filters and it makes them all balance better
I’m think the 500 tilt EQ point is the sauce here
It’s too funky, funky in here, gimme some air
