[quote name='dood' post='948223' date='Sep 7 2010, 01:02 PM']I really can't understand why it hasn't worked Cetera! - I've most defintely had it working for a long time in my own rigs. As I say, the last two contenders have been the MXR M80 with a parallel out and also the Sansamp ParaDriver, which is the pedal version of the RPM. What were you finding not working about it?[/quote] Sorry chaps! Dodgy lead meant the link between RPM & RBI wasn't working... *blush* Got it sorted now so don't need a splitter box after all! Thanks everyone for your help though & apologies if I've wasted anyone's time....

[quote name='umph' post='947766' date='Sep 6 2010, 10:46 PM']i think you could very well get away with a passive jobbie for this purpose, if you get hum though i can draw you up something to show you how to make a transformer balanced splitter.[/quote] Thanks, any 'passive' suggestions?

[quote name='rmshaw37' post='947421' date='Sep 6 2010, 05:23 PM']i take it you like the sound of the bass on sonic boom too! lol[/quote] I sure do! But that's not what I want this rig for.... My other rig takes care of the 'Gene' tone

[quote name='velvetkevorkian' post='947477' date='Sep 6 2010, 06:23 PM']But according to your diagram, you don't need to combine- you just need to split to the two preamps which then go into separate amp channels, no? If you actually want to split your signal into high and low bands and recombine them to one channel, something like the [url="http://www.sfxsound.co.uk/mainpage.asp?page=xm"]SFX X+M[/url] seems to be very highly regarded- the builder is a BCer too.[/quote] Sorry, I meant run both at the same time....

[quote name='BottomEndian' post='947313' date='Sep 6 2010, 03:38 PM']Do you need the ability to drop one out (i.e. switchable ABY), or are you just running both full-bore all the way (i.e. you just need a decent splitter)?[/quote] Just a decent splitter to be honest....

Love this track - always been a fave!

Cheers! Any love here for the Radial Big Shot ABY? Looks pretty nice... I've heard that the Morley and ArtCool ABY splitters are both noisy...

Farmer61 - thanks but that pedal only switches between channels - it doesn't seem to combine. Dood - I tried that the other day but it didn't seem to work(?).... hmmm, maybe I wired it wrong - will have to try again later

I would like to be running my rig as follows: Bass --> Splitter Box --> Sansamp RBI (high end grind) --> Channel A of Peavey DPC1400 Amp --> 1st Genz Benz Neox 2x12 --------> Splitter Box --> Sansamp RPM (clean low end) --> Channel B of Peavey DPC1400 Amp --> 2nd Genz Benz Neox 2x12 Does anyone have any recommendations as to a good but cheap splitter/ABY box with 1 input (from the bass) and 2 outputs (to run both pre-amps at the same time)? I'd like no signal loss or as little as possible... Thanks in advance for your help chaps! UPDATE: Problem now SOLVED - thanks!

Smug Valve Tw*t

I've owned an Ampeg SVT2 Pro... and it was great, but not a patch on a friend's SVT2 (Non-pro) I'm afraid.... Personally, I'd much rather use my Sansamp RPM & RBI preamps through a good power amp for versatility, portability AND tone... It's all IMHO.... and as mentioned in this thread, 99% of the audience could give a damn - they just hear a bass guitar...

Lovely threesome!

Currently 44....with one on the way out the door shortly though...

[quote name='Johnston' post='936955' date='Aug 26 2010, 11:21 AM']Any ideas what this one is?? I couldn't find a clip of the red one I thought was a peavey Looked a bit like a T-40 but single pick up I think.[/quote] That's the Roland bass I mentioned before...

Sorry if this has been covered in detail before... I'm interested in adding a black Rickenbacker (style) bass to my arsenal, but I have a couple of questions.... 1) What is the main difference between a 4001 and a 4003? 2) I don't/won't have the cash to buy a real one so, of all the Japcrap etc copies over the years, which is/are the best/most authentic copies and what should I expect to pay for one in excellent condition? Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks!
