This is a great idea, again though surely I’ll need 3 cabled basses which is a recipe for spaghetti junction plus I want to still be able to use my wireless. Ill have a look at the Zoom units too

If I’m running a wireless pack though surely I’d need to run it through the main input and output, if this is the case then there wouldn’t be anything connected to either return as I’d just be swapping my bass on the main line?

It wouldn’t be down to driver size, maybe try a different cab loaded with 10’s. Could I suggest a Barefaced 😉

I’m not that familiar with the Boss pedal but am assuming I could just patch lead between the send and returns if using a wireless too, that would work?

That’s not a bad shout at all, I do have a compressor on my board however I’ve seen boards with more than one on and maybe that’s how they used it or even one for fingerstyle, one for slap etc. Another great shout, I’ll have to download a manual on how this works. If it’s bypass, A and B then this would be spot on. I don’t mind bending down during a gig to flick a mode switch. I’d have to start putting tip ex markers on my volume knobs if I went this route I guess 😉 I know what you’re saying but I’d sooner flick a switch if you know where I’m coming from.

I looked at one of these and also the Radial Bassbone, however they both are limited to two instruments. I’m unaware of a similar pedal that will do the same job for more than two basses.

Sorry didn’t explain very well, there is a total of 5 tunings (some of the songs we have to use the correct tunings to make it possible to play the song). Dropping the bottom string is obviously no problem however I do require the 3 basses for our set. An E/DropD, Eflat/DropC# and a section in B.

I own a passive BB2024 and it’s a superb bass. You shouldn’t have any problem cutting through, maybe get it looked at as somebody suggested above.

Not sure if this section is the right place to post but I figured effects could be the cure. Does anybody use multiple basses live and have problems matching the output levels volume and eq wise? I play in a rock covers band involving a lot of drop tuned material and whilst it’s a lot of fun the downside is we have 3 different tunings. I’m not so bothered about hauling 3 basses around but the problem comes matching the outputs when I switch basses. I’ve got a programmable Sansamp on my board which I try to use a setting per bass but it’s a real struggle to get them all similar sounding and in volume especially as I have a mixture of passive and active basses. The obvious and expensive solution would be to buy 3 models of identical bass but I was wondering if I was missing anything effects wise that could help me. The other problem I find is when you kick in some overdrive some basses seem to get too fuzzy where as another perfect. Nature of the beast I suspect but surely I’m not the only one?

Unnecessary GAS is in the air. Thanks guys I knew I could rely on BC

Just a swift Sunday morning question if anyone can help me. I'm trying to identify what model bass Aaron Leigh uses in Y&T. Had Ibanez guitars in the past but never owned an Ibanez bass, see these regularly and his Ibby bass sounds great. Ta in advance
