Hello everyone!
Got my MB from Amsterdam musical shop recently. Brilliant thing right from the box, love analog sounding delays!
But then some “problems” came.
1. Delay time – works well for me but I wonder why repeats are so unclear when setting delay time to MAX?
2. Depth knob – I can use it for “spicing” my sound but only when set to near-minimum position. If you go further it makes your sound out-of-tune and woobly. But. I’ve noticed that delay time and depth knob depend on each other and you can get very wide yet good sounding chorus and vibrato sounds with Delay at 13:00 and Depth on 15:00. Just try to set desired Delay first than play with Depth to find that “sweet point”.
3. Don’t know how to use square mode. Sounds too weird and glitchy to me. Maybe with expression pedal it can be useful.
4. At last – there’s definitely a volume boost between clean sound and sound when MB engaged – especially with Blend set to near-minimum. That is not good for live usage. When Blend is on 12:00 – bypassed signal has the same level. You can read about this issue on the numerous forums. And the workaround for me was – to open it and to make simple soldering. You have to connect two small pads from GAIN ADJ place for trim pot. Even for me it was quite easy.
After that MB has started to work opposite way – there’s no volume boost on low Blend settings (thats what I want) but if you go further with Blend – volume goes LOWER. Anyway that’s OK for me now.
One more strange thing – before that soldering MB started to self-oscillate at Feedback at 15:00 at least. Now – even on 13:00. -
