@@daviddixon7326 Hi, David! Thanks for your message, great question. The DSM Humboldt Electronics Simplifier mk2 can be used to create a W/D/W rig, however it requires other gear to complete. You could for example output a signal from the effects send of the DSM to your time domain effects and then a BOSS IR200 to use as your “wet” and then the DSM takes care of the dry. You could also create a split prior to the DSM and send another signal to a similar amp sim. Multiple variations on the theme depending on how far down the rabbit hole you want to go. Please contact us direct with other questions as you have them! Robert Williams, Senior Sweetwater Sales Engineer, (800) 222-4700 ext. 2371, robert_williams@sweetwater.com

@@bgingras05 Hi, Brian. Yes, it can definitely be used with a fuzz pedal. At the end of the day, it’s a small solid state amp preamp so it’s not going to sound like Jimi’s Fuzzface into a cranked Marshall, but it does take all pedals (including fuzz) very well.

Love the sound of this Mk2! congrats Daniel and Jano!

The original Simplifier lived up to its name and simplified my setup by replacing the separate and bigger solutions I was using for amp modeling, speaker emulation, DI, and headphone amp. And it does all those things in stereo too. I’m liking all the changes here, so it looks like I’ll be upgrading.

I have a Simplifier MK1 DLX and it's funny because with all these new amp pedals coming out I'm watching the market a lot, but the DSM just sounds too good that there's no point changing it. True value for money. When the DLX MK2 comes out however I will make the change as it'll no doubt have similar longevity. Also Daniel REALLY knows his stuff. I'm a bit of a gear nerd and the way in which he understands how all the different components work together is important.

Cool product, might be wanting one! But man, that was hard to read the parameter text on the device because of the orientation in the camera frame.

hi guys! I've recently bought a simplifier mkII and I'm totally blown away by the way it sounds! Perfect! I use it clean, like a pedal plataform! Superb sound. Let me ask you, is there any way to connect it in stereo? Through some trs cable or something? i know that it simulates stereo cabinets but i'd like to connect stereo modulations on it. It's possible?

Fantastic vid and product. I wish the Fender part of the demo had spent a little more time on clean tones. Not a complaint, just a request.

Hell yea would love to run my mpc through one of them

This is Great!

These guys at DSM are doing great work! I play both guitar and bass, so I am hoping they will be upgrading the Bass Station too? (Not that it lacks much of anything.) Any rumors about a Simplifier Bass Station Mk2 @sweetwater?

Just sold my Simplifier DLX. Loved it & really struggled w/selling it. Got fed up with how hard the color scheme & text is to read on stage. Hated the knobs which reflect lighting from above, making instant visual confirmation virtually impossible. And the tiny switches & their locations & hard to read tiny lettering: horrendous for me. I'll continue to keep up w/their stuff because it sounds so good, hoping they'll expand this into a pedal board size player friendly version. Used it in church applications.

Hi, Michael! In my experience, the DLX model is still an upgrade over the MK2 due to its expanded features. The Simplifier MKI does not feature reverb, where both the MK2 and the DLX do. That said, one cool feature that the MK2 has that the DLX does not have is the dedicated power amp gain control. That extra controllable gain stage offers another level of tone tweaking.

Completely agree. Nasty digital distortion, but nice clean sound. Where's the analog sound they claim? Nothing as nice that I hear nearly as nice as a good stock Fender Deluxe, Twin Reverb, Marshall, MESA, or VOX. And the "reverb" sounds like chorus to me, a tired effect to my mind, where reverb and delay are always useful.

Is the fx loop line level or instrument level ?

Who else thought at the very start Don was launching into Jessica by the Allman Brothers?! Lol

Full guitar rig tone using just one pedal's worth of space on a pedalboard. You know how bass players use sans-amps to run direct (with or without a rig)? This is that, taken to the next level, for guitar players. But with full amp and cab controls like you're used to and it feels and sounds like a real tube amp while you're playing.

i wished it has MIDI & presets savings. There are analog drive pedals that are analog but are digitally controlled, so they have MIDI & presets abilities.but still have analog sound & feel which off course has no latency...Anyway just my 2 cents... So it's a pass for me but i am very sure there are so many that would love this pedal ...
