Dude, what are you talking about? That video KICKED ASS!!!! There's so much going on in that box, I wouldn't know what was what if you didn't describe it. Very well set up, explained and demo'd. My vid will be nowhere near as cool, but mainly because it will be clips over still images (I don't have a decent video camera)...
I am totally stoked to try the pedal, though. It's so cool! And thanks for using your active bass - I was planning on using my passive Fender Jazz, so between the two of us, we should have the low end fairly well covered, equipment-wise.
Whooooo!

I'm more like a mids-ist than a bassist.

Oh I shall - unfortunately, I'm in RI, so the transfer will have to be by mail unless you want to take the Amtrak up... which would probably not exactly work out fairly for you time-wise...
