I should've guessed this'd do it...

Cool thanks, I'll give that a shot. Will 7.5 volts still trigger the EG?

Sorry! To my credit, I did take the MOTM out to about 4 gigs with a
(short-lived) acid jazz band I had going. In the main band I gig with now,
I play bass 90% of the gig, and just use the electronics as ocaisional
improv spice. Before the Micro, I was seriously considering building an
adjunct MOTM into an SKB pop-up, may still do that.
