Hate how unresponsive these knobs are, the q-factor is super narrow near neutral which IMO is just a unintuitive, either no change at all or crank it and its too much making it hard to find the sweet spot
in this regard the original was way better and with better knobs - they dont all have the same feel (cheap) so dont expect satisfying knob play
also it feels like a couple of the bands are so irrelevant when their neighbors are in play its almost like having only 4 bands that matter - so what’s the benefit of paying for 2 more bands? lol
it looks nicer on my desk though (but cheap paint job)
