  1. [quote name='Wil' post='927486' date='Aug 17 2010, 12:56 PM']I use the pedal version of the Korg tuner, and it's a great bit of kit. Tracks well even on my 5 string.[/quote]

    you know with the rackmount version, how can i mute/bypass from front stage to tune? considering my flightcase will be at back of stage?
    is it a case of phyiscally going to the rackmount tuner and pressing buttons?

    I could be wrong though - this is just how i've always taken it.

    The cab is your speakers.[/quote]

    by poweramp, are we talking my head?
    thats whats confusing me.

    RBI --> HEAD --> CAB

    is that correct?

    just a quick one on this, my flightcase is at the back of stage, if it had this in, i'm at front of stage, although i would be able to see the lights, how do i bypass?
    do i have to walk to my cab everytime i want to tune?

  4. [quote name='Wil' post='927423' date='Aug 17 2010, 12:07 PM']It's a preamp and a DI, so yes you can use it in front of your usual amp setup. It's got a great sounding drive and EQ section, so if you like the sound they make then they are a great addition. I love it, hence I've recently moved to using just an RBI for all my tone shaping and a seperate power amp.[/quote]

    Would it basically render my head obsolete though? would i need to bother changing any settings on my head if the RBI is doing all this?
    technically could i just put RBI straight into cab?

    Whats the difference between a cab and a poweramp?
    I'm a bit new to the whole head/cab stuff too, any help is appreciated!

  5. yo.

    i've been a guitarrist for nine years, but ive started playing bass in a new band.
    I've just bought a fender jazz, an ashdown evo iii 575w and a 4x10 ashdown cab.

    My mate, another bassist, has got a SansAmp RBI, and raves about it, saying i should get one.
    i've got a rackmount system in my flightcase, so im pretty keen to use these three slots too.

    However, is there a point to me having a sansamp? i thought they were used to plug straight into a PA.
    I'm confused as hell by this, if anyone could clear this up, it would be brilliant.

    Would it go; SansAmp --> Head --> Cab ?

    Cheerss.
    Paul
