I actually prefer how plumes sounds on bass, alot more rounded in my opinion, the blumes to me just sounds like a fuzz pedal

I have both pedals now. The Plumes has some low end loss when used on bass, Blumes has not. But the gain of the Blumes is definitely fuzzier, it has a different character.

The low end is much improved on the blumes! Nice.

Love the Plumes for guitar, don't have a Blumes but it does sound killer with a bass from what I have heard. I have never been even a little bit disappointed with Earthquaker Devices. Every one that I have or have taste tested sounds great! Thank you Jamie and everyone at EqD!

On guitar, I think I’d agree for most typical applications. It definitely seems Blumes has a gain structure designed with bass in mind, and it actually seems to compliment Plumes on guitar well, as they each carve out room for each other on their respective instruments in the mix.

I like how they improved the low end, but I don't see why they needed to increase the gain. But, I don't see many Blumes demos with the gain set low, so it's hard to get a sense of if the Blumes can do the same nice lower gain sounds as the Plumes.

I'm pretty sure the only difference in the Blumes circuit is the input capacitor is a different value that cuts less bass. When you have a bassier signal entering a distortion circuit, you get more distortion. It's inevitable. From my playing around with the pedal, it does clean up just as well as the Plumes. It just saturates faster as you turn up the gain knob and the highest setting sounds more distorted.

@@Poparad Maybe? Earthquaker's marketing says something about the gain being doubled. I don't know if that means "the Blumes has double the gain of the Plumes" or "Both the Blumes and Plumes have double the gain of the original TS".
@jdjk7 7 ай бұрын
Having gone back through the website and through the manuals, they definitely say that the Blumes has increased gain from the Plumes.

Very good man. I want the Blumes now. It appears it will work well with low guitar tunings and bass 🎉 Having both seems beneficial. One complement each other. Plumes will add some brightness to the Blumes, and the Blumes will give a bit of dark tone to the Plumes. 💥

I was wondering how they would stack.I was also thinking that the Plumes would stack well with the White Light.
@markferguson3745 7 ай бұрын
I play mostly baritone and dropped tunings, so I was curious about this comparison.There are a lot of clipping circuits that aren't spectacular with guitar, but are excellent for full bass .As much as I like the regular Plumes, I don't hear the Blumes as an improvement for baritone ranges, - but I'm not looking for scoops, or mud, or high gain application.Seems,- okay ,-for standard bass, - but I think you could do better, and probably within the EQD long line of current and discontinued releases.

Wish there would be more knob twisting and settings changing on bass.. Nobody else has done it on YT yet, can you believe it? Everybody just singing praises to blumes but i don't buy it...I believe it when i hear it in comparisson.
