Wasted an hour of work time trying to get tickets. The £77 ones kept disappearing when going to checkout. Not paying £115 plus fees and up.

Hi, I posted this a Helix bassplayer group on FB, but will try here also. I have a couple of questions about the amp and cab modelling. I just want to preface this with mentioning that I’ve hardly played through any of the real versions of these amps neither directly nor miked up so have I no physical reference. Yet I find the behaviour kind of odd. Also, I’ve mostly played through a Fender Mustang bass with kind of low output, I think around -36dB when looking in my DAW with the clean DI signal through USB. Also, it’s so low the LA Studio Comp doesn’t trigger even with the lowest threshold. 1. Should the default values of the amp+cab blocks result in significant gain increase? When using for instance the Woody Blue has a gain increase of around 18dB and the normal SVT of around 10dB iirc. This makes it kind of hard to compare amp sounds and you have to re-gain everything after it when trying out amps. 2. Even with my low output the input level into the SVT Bright block, and to a slightly lesser extent the SVT Normal, makes it distort heavily. Is this the goto sound for this amp? Also many of the other amps sound very distorted until I lower the Input gain. I’ve even tried activating the input pad but they still distort. Is this the intended behaviour? 3. Most of the cab-sims create either a heavily mid-scooped sound or sounds like throwing a heavy blanket over the cab, draining loads of definition. Is this how miked up cabs are supposed to sound? 4. I’ve always tried to gain match my blocks so that there’s not noticeable gain difference when activating them. Is this a good general approach or do I want to boost my signal to a certain level and try to maintain it? Exceptions of course are when you want a switchable gain boost… Thanks in advance and sorry if this has been asked before!

TC Electronic 3rd dimension. It's genuinely the best chorus pedal available.

So, I'm pretty much done. My desired stonerfunk/doomfunk tone achieved. Pedal order as in my signature.

That's a rather hidden away fact for a bass that would probably sell within minutes if it was in the FS forum, I wish I had the cash as owning one of your necks - which is sublime - I'm sure that is an outstanding and unique instrument 👍

Just got mine yesterday but had a rehearsal last night so I only got a few minutes to play with it, but I like it. Sounds decent with guitar too, as a practice amp at least - I haven't tried any FX/sims though it yet. I purchased this to use at the beach powered by my drill batteries and a cheap USB adapter I have; should have hours of play time.

yeah man i love ronseal it does exactly what it says on the tin fixes everything miracle worker product would recommend to any and all

waom

Does it do exactly what it says on the tin?

from what I know you literally just rotate them individually and it should make the signal stronger/weaker, tends to be really small movement just make it so the elements are aimed at the strings more

thank you for the insight and I mean it does sound quite helpful really, I appreciate your thoughts on it I'll have to do some research and think about going up myself

just straight brown brown is brown

i eat them 😀

The new one fixes a few issues, especially the agility to store key ranges and part transpose in scenes. This saves a lot of duplication and running out of parts. Also ESP is an amazing plugin to have. Although I’m only using the M7 as a controller with Gig performer at the moment, I’m using ESP a lot. Once i sell the 7+ the upgrade wouldn’t have cost me too much.

i love ronseal been using it for years fixes everything miracle worker product would recommend to any and all

😰

ye would 👍

i love TUNGSOL Tungsol 12AT7 very nice

@urbanx perfect, many thanks!
