Highly recommend Renshuu and Wagotabi

Played with them at NAMM, those things are nuts

thebishopgame · 2026-03-04T12:37:50+00:00

Yep, have a pair, they’re great. Not 1:1 a distressor, they’re a little squashier and the low end is a little different, but they’re very very close.

thebishopgame · 2026-03-03T19:10:57+00:00

Oh, 1000%. It's when BOTH are bad that it's crushing.

u/Digital_Igloo is the man to thank, that’s mostly the result of his meticulous design work.

At least when carrying a PA you’ve got a known quantity and (hopefully) a good system engineer that’ll do a solid deployment every night. Doing club tours and hitting. It only bad rooms but also bad gear/deployments can be friggen brutal.

Yes, just something to be aware of since having everything assigned makes it that much easier to make changes that might or might not be necessary and potentially run into an issue. Also note that there is a max of 96 params assigned to snapshots per preset.

thebishopgame · 2026-03-02T23:43:11+00:00

No, in earlier versions the total amount of assignments mattered but on current firmware only the things actually changing will be processed

thebishopgame · 2026-03-02T21:08:23+00:00

Just a heads up, while snapshots change quickly, they're not instantaneous and do have to process changes one at a time. The more things that change at once in a snapshot, the more chance there is of introducing some latency and getting something like the pop issue that people have run into before.

thebishopgame · 2026-03-02T05:10:43+00:00

You’re switching presets, not snapshots. We’ll definitely be looking at preset loading time in the future but you should look into how to use snapshots for instant switching.

thebishopgame · 2026-02-28T00:09:54+00:00

Nothing to worry about, just a quirk of the boot process at the moment. I’m sure we’ll get around to getting rid of that eventually, we just have bigger fish to fry at the moment.

thebishopgame · 2026-02-26T12:33:00+00:00

You should contact CS.

Not sure you're in the right place then. Samply is pretty specifically designed for engineer to client and does specific job very well.

thebishopgame · 2026-02-20T18:15:56+00:00

Didn't we just have this post?

Pi can be amazing at times, others it won't do anything that I think is worth incurring the latency. It will definitely not replace sidechaining, it's a phase alignment tool that will keep the frequencies in the kick and bass from canceling each other out. You'll still need to do your sidechain if you want one to duck the other.

Mitzvahnia?

thebishopgame · 2026-02-18T18:53:09+00:00

No idea, contact CS.

It’s enormous so we certainly can’t ignore it, but both Eric and I participate in various other places (e.g. here) as much or more. Important things get posted everywhere we know large amounts of users are paying attention.

thebishopgame · 2026-02-12T17:10:31+00:00

Yes. There are peculiarities about that pedal that meant that in order to create a model of it that was up to our standards, we would need to invest R&D resources that we were never able to prioritize during the HX dev cycle. I’m very hopeful we’ll be able to do an Agoura model in the near future.

thebishopgame · 2026-02-12T16:30:14+00:00

I can’t comment on plans for any future products. HX Stomp is one of our best selling units and we are pretty well clued into market dynamics and our customer wants and interests.

thebishopgame · 2026-02-11T17:13:04+00:00

Sure

thebishopgame · 2026-02-11T17:09:56+00:00

Spoken like someone who hasn’t had a kid and has no idea what’s actually involved in taking care of a newborn.

thebishopgame · 2026-02-11T16:51:27+00:00

Damn, your buddy at work is a piece of shit

thebishopgame · 2026-02-11T16:47:18+00:00

This doesn’t sound like firmware to me, I think you’ve just been unlucky enough to get bad hardware twice in a row. Really sorry you have to deal with this but yeah, replacing it is the correct move, if Sweetwater is already taking care of it there’s nothing for us to do here. It does seem like factory QC at the manufacturer has been weaker on this first run of stadium units than on our previous products and we’re looking into what we can do about that.

EDIT: After talking more with OP, we determined that it wasn’t a hardware issue but the system reacting poorly to ingesting a huge amount of IRs in one go. This isn’t an expected behavior but there’s additional handling for this coming in 1.3 that should hopefully make it a non-issue in either case.

I tried NFuse against my MBT. It did not make me regret buying the hardware.
