1193116 2011-05-16 06:11:00 Let me take a pix and send/post it here for you .

I find that the LMB3 is very good at boosting since every powered stomp box is really also a pre-amplifier too in a way - some noisier than others but some if you don't push too hard are quiet .

What I do with my limiter is use it as a gate when I am needing to get to a lead and that way I get some boost and also keep the volume even and well-tempered . So, I am not actually using it at equal volume ON/OFF as I use it a little bit differently .

When I have to jump to the fore with a bass run, I hit it and I'm there, but not boom-y . Know what I mean?

My chain runs like this:::

BASS OUT >> LMB-3 >> MXR M80 >> MORLEY PT-13 ELECTRONIC TUNER >> DELTALAB DD-1 DIGITAL DELAY >> AMP HEAD

Some times I run the tuner on the parallel OUTPUT from the MXR and keep any noise - of which there isn't any from the tuner - out of the chain . Since my amp has a STANDBY - I can tune and have the amp OFF and yet the whole chain is hot .

I've had other chains like this:::

but I changed that to my current setup as I like it a little better .

1193117 2011-05-16 06:13:00 Does you postal system give you any way to sniff them and find where the package is by now?

We can get a pretty timely location on our mail by Googling the package/parcel number.

1193118 2011-05-16 06:25:00 Thanks.

Nah things are not super accurate with international tracking here, Google doesn't do it as far as I know, can't say I've tried though.

1193121 2011-05-18 04:53:00 ........and?

Worth the wait or not?

1193122 2011-05-18 05:11:00 The wait was surprisingly short - and well worth it. :)

Great sound, easily controllable, can get pretty much any sound you want out of it, it's very versatile. Noise gate is effective, very very impressed with the pedal on the whole. The colo(u)r button is also very handy, a great idea. It's awesome :thumbs:

1193123 2011-05-18 05:27:00 Glad to hear. I like the ability to use the COLOR switch to get out of trouble in the middle of a gig and somehow you've gone the wrong way - it'll bring you back to a very useable setting to at least make some decent sounds.

Remember that this is a pre-amp too, and can feed directly into the post amp if you can access it on the back/front of your unit. That way you can cut the colorization out from any pre-amp settings, and that means cutting any signal sizzle or changes in the sound train too.

If you use it that way, get an A-B/Y stomp to make the changes or you can have one guitar on the MXR and the other through the normal pre-amp on the combo you use.

Don't forget to use the -15dB pad too - this has a high line-out voltage.

Lots of variables with this unit, not to mention the FOH dry output (from the XLR) that you can send to a board for PA support or to more amps and combos.
