+ 1 for SFX my loop/blender has the same but also a wet signal knob which is essential when going for synth type sounds. [quote name='Sibob' timestamp='1351527394' post='1852202'] Cor, dont want much do you My SFX FX loop mixer has two volume controls for each loop, plus a bypass....plus it powers other pedals like the TU-2/LS-2....but it's not a micro....or cheap lol Si [/quote]

I visited him on the back of that article and was very disappointed! [quote name='hollywoodrox' timestamp='1351633017' post='1853608'] andy Baxter a collector seller [/quote]

I have the EBS Multi Comp and am thinking about the Diamond - what would you say the main difference is between the two. Is it really noticeable and worth having both?

GAS is the mother of all evils my friend! If they started making bigger TC amps with the features of the BH250 then I would consider a rig change. [quote name='ezbass' timestamp='1351536296' post='1852345'] OT I have found that bass amps seem to make good guitar amps no matter what the brand. Both my Markbass/Schroeder rig and my Phil Jones Cub make great guitar amps. Back when I was playing the 6 string terror the best amp I ever had was a Fender 59 Bassman reissue (sounded pretty damned good with a bass through it too). Back On Topic the TC stuff is rather making think about changing my rig, there is certainly something about it that appeals. I would point out that there is nothing wrong with my current rig, but you guys know what a cruel mistress GAS can be. [/quote]

Why? Interested to know more about this one! [quote name='Rumple' timestamp='1351536998' post='1852358'] I have a few and my fave at the mo' is a Diamond. [/quote]

I will try it with two cabs to see but I have to say that when doing that with the Mark Bass it did not sound twice as loud if you know what I mean! No I didn't bother with the footswitch as I will really only be using at home. I wonder if TC Electronic will begin to put the Tone Print function on their bigger amps? [quote name='spaners' timestamp='1351202849' post='1848785'] The MarkBass little Mark III dose have twice the power output as the BH250 though lol, bearing that in mind i would say that was a good resault !! I would like to know how much louder it is with 2 1x12 cabs (im thinking of getting another RS112) Have you tryed ith through 2 yet ? Did you get a foot switch to go with your BH250 ? [/quote]

Just into a single 1x12 8 ohm cab so I accept that it s not running at maximum power output but then again neither is the Mark Bass when I use that! Playing funk/soul stuff. Interesting that it sounds good with guitar! [quote name='spaners' timestamp='1351189927' post='1848524'] What speakers did you hook up to and what was the total load (IE 1x12 8ohm) ? What kind of music? I had a bit of a jam round at a m8s on sat night with mine. We tryed my friends Strat through the BH250 n RS112, boy dose this ever make a good sounding guitar rig. Tone prints and outboards worked realy well (Vibrato works very well with guitar). We were mainly playing Niervana covers. [/quote]

I honestly can't remember - will have a look when I get home and see and post it for you. Using the '74 jazz with the East pre-amp and it opens the filters beautifully. [quote name='Higgie' timestamp='1351168035' post='1848151'] What settings were you using? [/quote]

Agreed - think I will put it away in a cupboard for a rainy day!! [quote name='Higgie' timestamp='1351167120' post='1848127'] I still have my Mutron, because for me it's unique. I do agree though, it's definitely not the most practical filter for a live application. In all the time I've had it (probably 4 years or so) I've never gigged it. I'd keep it if I were you - Unless you're desperate for the cash. The longer you hold on to it, the more it'll be worth! [/quote]

Cheers man! [quote name='Higgie' timestamp='1351167199' post='1848132'] Just listening to the track now...Great stuff dude. Does indeed sound Funktastic!! [/quote]

Got mine last week and used it on Tuesday - great sounds, great build and the Tone Print function is awesome. I had to have the volume at just past 3'o'clock to cover our drummer so not sure that it would be up to the job of replacing my Mark Bass LMIII but then that is not really why I bought it! Will be good as an aid to rehearsing at home though with the aux in and headphones out sockets.

Thought that I would share a rough mix of the track using the Filter Twin so you can hear what it sounds like! Please excuse the playing!! [attachment=121997:Get Up.mp3]

Really in love with the Filter Twin now, we were in the studio last week and the producer was looking at my MuTron and commenting on how you don't see many of them about. We were doing a track that I wanted a filter on so I opted for the FT and he stopped the session to say that it was the funkiest sound that he had ever heard and the best filter for a bass. I think he thought it was the MuTron so I didn't have the heart to tell him otherwise! I think that my MuTron is coming off the board and I have to seriously consider selling it or not - very big and heavy and I also have a few problems with active basses being too hot for it! [quote name='Higgie' timestamp='1351123457' post='1847776'] Cheers mate. It's a great Filter. You don't lose your original tone at all. It just whacks 2 filters going in opposite directions, and you choose how much of each you want It almost sounds like there is a built in blend to me, as I can always hear my clean tone with it. Not sure if that's what's going on, but whatever it is doing, it works! [/quote]

The Sound Stylistics, Papa Grows Funk and Tower of Power would be my recommendations!

I don't think that this is Deacon's recorded line, it just sounds too different to the original to my ears.

I use the Filter Twin more than my MuTron III! [quote name='enricogaletta' timestamp='1349594807' post='1827964'] Thanks for your nice words Higgie. You right the Filter Twin is a too much fun toy to have! Cheers [/quote]

What does it sound like if you mix the tone print with an external effect pedal? For example octave with fuzz? [quote name='basskit_case' timestamp='1349768246' post='1830126'] There are three switches: 1: Mute 2: Toneprint on/off 3: Switch between the last two loaded toneprints Agree with spaners, well worth the investment [/quote]

There was some confusion on the thread as to what it did with this amp - can you clarify?

Cool - seems like a no brainer then! [quote name='spaners' timestamp='1349725735' post='1829756'] Had mine for a couple of weeks now. Love the sound. Love tone prints. Build seems very solid, no funny noises from mine. I havent tryed it through anything bigger than my RS112 8ohm cab, but at home that is loud at just 1 quater volume. Had an ampeg pf350 befor and that was def not as loud into the same cab. Into a pair of 12s or a 4x10 at 4ohms I think this would be more than enuf loud for most things and if you need more theres a Di on the back [attachment=120451:P9180017.JPG] [/quote]

Excellent story - so sorry for your families loss though. As I have said before, the people on here are awesome, so genuine and helpful it really does make me smile. My motto for this forum is: Basschat - restoring faith in human nature!

Got bad GAS for one of these - worried about how loud they are though! Can it cover a drum kit at a live gig/rehearsal?

Thank you, will have a good read through that article and also check out those two pedals, only worry with Mark Bass pedals is that they are so damn big!

Do you think it would be loud enough to gig with and cover a drum kit? [quote name='bobpalt' timestamp='1349363532' post='1825336'] Got one delivered a couple of days ago to use at home, and it certainly sounds very nice. Makes a few odd noises at start up that I will have to keep an eye on, has a couple of cheap wobbly switches on the front and although the shop insisted it was brand new and taken straight from their warehouse, its certainly been used at some time and had the power cable missing from the box. The shop said this happens some times with TC equipment........ [/quote]

Thinking of getting one of these as a back up/practice amp as it has aux in etc and wonder if anyone has bought on yet and got any feedback? They seem a steal at £235 and the app for changing effects seems pretty cool too!
