I have various effects, with the same boring knobs (EHX pedals use the same type of knobs for most pedals). It might be non-essential, but fun (in some obscure way) to put some other knobs on the different pedals. Where do you buy yours - and is there pics of your stuff? Cheers

Oh dear, what have I started? I just wanted to sound good in a band situation 😎
-
Sounds just like how I spend most of the time in with the band
-
Thank you for all your useful remarks. I play different places on 3 different amps/cabs. I play "party-rock" in one band (Creedence, Georgia Sattelites, Free, Steppenwolf etc) on a modded up Behringer 450 and a 4x12" EBS Proline. I also play bluesrock on a EBS Classic 450 head + Trace Elliot cabs. At home I use a EBS Reidmar and EBS Neoline cabs. I don't know much about Hz, but do you suggest cutting the bass and boost the low mids? Thanks for helping out 😉

Hi there. I wonder a bit about the tone. When I sit at home and practice, my EQ (Amp+bass) are set comletely flat. I like it like that. When I play with the band, it just doesn't feel like the same. The bass sounds "thinner" and drowns in the mix. How do you change YOUR sound from your bedroom to your practice room? Does your bass lay down the fat foundation in the band, or do you lock in with the bass drum and give it cool fiils? Sorry I couldn't explain it better 😉

I have the Reidmar set up with a Neoline 110" with a Neoline 112" on top. Weird, I know, but I like it that way. The sound is amazing. I also have EBS Classic 450 top connected with a 4x12" Proline, when I need to break down a wall or two. Huge massive sound
-
I got the head second hand for something like £60. I had 36 components upgraded for £75. Now it really sounds good - not the 450 watts anymore - somewhere between 350-380 I think. Sounds way better than I expected.
-
Tried a modded up Behringer head with the 4x12 cab tonight. Very different tone, pleased with the sound, so the EBS Classic head will have to be used somewhere else
-
The head is a modded up Behringer 450 watt, but that should not matter. BTW: That Behringer Sounds pretty good, after upgrading 36 internal bits and pieces
-
Got a new head to my two cabs. The head has 3 cabinet outputs - two jacks and one speakon. Will there be any difference in: A) head to cab one via speakon, and link cab one to cab two via the link/speakon on the cabs? B) head to cab one via Jack. Head to cab two via another Jack in the head? Will the power and ohm be the same?
-
Will try that out, I have a different rig I will try out in various setups

Hello fellow bassplayers. At the moment I am playing an EBS 450 Classic + EBS Pro Line 4x12". I think the cab has a rather dark or muffled sound. Does anyone else have experiences with that cab (or head)? I'm thinking of getting another cab - or maybe even another head. What would you say? I play rock, pop and 70's rock

I have the smaller MS60B on my pedalboard, and the B3 is my home toy. I like both a lot, but feel no need to upgrade to B3n
-
I play with a pick as well as just the fingers. I have several basses with standard pickups (Fender, Sandberg, Yamaha, Ibanez - and a very VERY cheap Harley Benton), and my amps are both EBS (450 Classic with a 4x12 and Reidmar with a 2x12). After a A/B test of BSF/Mojomojo my personal taste is the Mojo. Just the warm sound I like, with a hair of overdrive
-
Swapped the Bass Soul Food for a Pigtronix Philosopher Rock compressor, and bought the Mojomojo. I hated the Mojomojo at first, but after a day I discovered that "my tone" was dialed in like this. Now I like that thing a lot
-
Thanks, that's about the same settings I have dialed in on my pedal. I must admit I like the tone better in a band situation, than when I play alone at home (and I just ordered that Mojomojo earlier today 🤔)
-
Thanks mate. What I really cant her used to is the boosted miss, when Drive is just turned past 12 o' clock
-
Haha. Discovered I had posted something the wrong place, so I posted it in "effects". Couldn't figure out how to delete this original post 😚
-
I have received some food for the soul! First impression was a disappointment, quite big even - but when i sat down and turned the knobs back and forth, I was happy again. The first impression was that it sounded like a bee in an empty pot, but as I turn down Drive, Blend and Treble the harsh midrange disappears and a warm and subtle crunch appears. What settings do you use?
-
Moved to "Effects"
-
Can’t remember, but dont they all have a blend knob?
-
After playing with it (B3, nothing else, I swear) I find I like the 160 with just a hair of gain from the Xotic BB. I can post the settings of anyone is interested
-
This thread is just what I have been looking for. I have both the Zoom B3 and the Zoom MS60-B. I was thinking of getting an actual compressor, but them remembered the options the Zooms gave me. As an always-on compressor, which of the Zoom-simulations would you pick? I am not slapping or popping, just looking for an even sound and tone - but fattening up the tone a little bit, wouldn't hurt anyone. Hope to find a useful simulation, so I could spend the money on strings instead of an actutal compressor pedal. Thank you
