i really dont think that a valve preamp or digital valve pre amp emulator will give you that sparkle. Its the valve power section you want for that. Valve pre amps for me just dial in a bit of grind and eq, but no magic 'oomph' as in a valve power output.

I only have the vt bass deluxe, but it does both very well. Use the character 6- 10 for svt and 10-2 for b15. Then the 'drive' for the tube emulation.

Vt bass pedal or vt bass deluxe.

perfect, cheers!

I'm struggling a bit with the right ear off my zs10 set up. It's much looser than the left. Does anyone know where you can buy replacement ear (buds? - sorry I've forgot the name) of different sizes so I can get a good fit?

I thought Junior sounded great!

Have you sussed out which way (in or out) the pre shape is activated? Seem to remember it's not the same as the other buttons? And (daft question) have you switched the eq button on?

I'd read that say if the amp head says 4 ohms then it will run ok on 6 ohms, but you'll severely hamper the life span of the valves?

It's a markbass cl106. Sealed cab. I love it, but it may as well be 4ohm as I'm never going to use any extra cab with it. And at 6ohm I couldn't use with a valve amp that only does 4 or 2 ohm.

Hi all, Just wondering how difficult it is (for a professional) to change a 6ohm cab into a 4ohm cab? It's it a complex job, or just changing a few components? Or is it more has than it's worth? I'm thinking going valve amp and it needs to see 4ohm.

Thanks.

Thanks again. Is there a UK site for the ue6?

I've been looking at the snugs website, they come with a choice of 2 earphones and moulds: Shure se215 at £300. or Shure se525 at £600. Can anyone recommend or not recommend either of those?

Thanks for the help. Im getting a bit lost now though (as usual)! Do the snugs/lugs come with ear phones? and is there any that are good or any to be avoided? thanks again.

As i already have a pair of Zs10s - would it be worth getting some 'snugs' for these? About £160? If they do them for those?

which customs do you use? edit: daft question - ive just seen you use 64 ears.

Can anyone help with any advice on this? I've just returned from the hospital where I've been to have my ears tested. It looks like my top end hearing is going. So, it's in ears all the way now. I have the zs10s. But is there any way to seal the ears so they don't let in external noise? Or any other ears? I'm sure I've seen some that are like a putty that moulds into your ear?

sods law, im in a tribute band, so im stuck with what the bassist played - a precision!

Hi all, Ive been really tinkering with my sound recently and found that the exact sound im after is achieved by hitting the strings more flat fingered inbetween the neck and pickups of my precision, whereas my normal playing position is between the pickups and bridge with a more arched hand. Playing near the neck just seems to give it so much more tone and 3D type sound, whereas nearer the bridge its more sterile and i always sound like me. Is there any way to continue playing near the bridge but eq in the missing sound from not playing at the neck? I really dont want to have to change my playing style if i dont need to.

Almost all of my kit has changed in 2018. Honourable mentions to my x2 basses (vintage v4s) pretty much do what any precision does, and the revelation of flatwounds (rotosound 77s), The best buys have to be my VTbass Rackmount -- incredibly lucky find. Love it to bits. And another lucky find in my Markbass 610 sealed cab. So easy to move around as its on tilt back wheels, and only 34kg, also it has so much power its unbelievable. A couple of things i liked, but werent practical for me where the behringer bd21 and spectracomp. Great in the own right, but i wanted a really easy set up, not patch cables, external power supplies etc. I also sold my zoom b3 which i loved for this reason. Worst buy probably the QSC 140rmx power amp i bought. Great amp, sounded brilliant, but a near 20kg just for an amp with no preamp or speaker cab, and just for a spare, it was a bit of a stupid idea! Going in to 2019 with the idea of a vt bass deluxe pedal into a trace elf into a 2x12 and using the behringer p2 monitor and zs10 in ears for a tiny quick set up.

we are still all instruments and amps. im just going to use my in ears instead of a monitor. saves loads of time and space and i have volume control over it. if anything breaks i can still hear everyone as we have all our instruments and amps, as well as the pa.

Personally, long 10 minutes ones for me.

yeh, i ordered the one with the mic - i couldnt work out what the difference was, so i ordered the all included one. just wired everything up and gave it a whirl. Got to say, the whole kit isnt noticeable at all when youre playing. Just hope it performs well when we next gig.

Thanks. They seem to fit really well now. The black button i was on about is actually on the headphone wire?

just received my in ear kit - zs10 and p2. just setting the ears up, can anyone help with any tips? What is the push button for on the little black stick? Does it matter which earphone or pole you plug the prongs on the cable into? The ears seem very tinny. Is this because they are in ears and not designed to be headphones? Any other tips for fitting etc? Are you supposed to 'plug' the ear or just have it in the ear? (sorry if thats a dumb question!) edit** actually when ive pushed them into my ears theyre really bassy, but when i let go they move again away from my ear and go tinny. Ive sussed it now. when i looked in the mirror it was obvious that the back of the ear phone needed to be pushed further inside my ear (if that makes sense?) to fit snugly.
