  1. Yeah. That’s the attraction for me. BDDI on all the time and add others to taste as and when the song needs it. I might create a separate patch for just one song. I normally use a 5 string as it needs low B and C#. Thinking I’ll just add the octave below in with the pedal and play higher.
  2. Just wanted to mention, this thread is the first time ive ever heard of Djent. I had to go and look it up. Even then it took me a few mins to figure out that it's a genre and not a brand lol.
  3. I’ll need to dig my old B1-Four out as i have a nice generic tone with just the right amount of drive programmed in for the type of songs I’m doing. I can’t remember what i was using for OD, but it wasn’t from an amp sim. I remember at one stage i was using various BDDI’s and switching between them. I’ll probably not do that this time.
  4. Cheers. Im still 50/50 whether i really need it, but as it’s cheaper than the BDDI i would have ended up getting, and covers my other need for an interface that works with my ipad for home practice (covered in another thread) it seems a reasonable price to pay.
  5. Just ordered mine from Bass Direct. According to the manual it can be bus powered, this swung it for me.
  6. No, i know what thread im in, but i was taking about getting B2 instead of the MS60+ in one post, and i got replies from that post. The MS60+ seemed attractive at first, but for not a lot more the B2 offers more foot switches. If the B1 four had another foot switch I’d probably keep with that. im not incorporating it with anything else, so this will just be my only source of silly noises and self indulgence lol.
  7. I’ve lost track of all these threads and who’s getting what. So you are getting the B2-four as well?
  8. The ME 90B.
  9. Spec wise I’d much prefer the new Boss one that came out recently, i especially like the battery option, but it looks bigger than i really want. It needs to fit in the front pocket of my gig bag.
  10. I have considered that a few times but it’s more bulky than what i want.
  11. Always prefer to get to know the unit as much as i can, so not interested in the software side that much. Never used it with Helix or other Xoom products. I’ve always needed to tweak things at gigs so need to know how and do it quickly. I wouldn’t bother with any app in a live situation. I’m pretty quick at picking these things up. I’d be up and running quickly as my needs aren’t too much, plus i already know what i need. Just a few effects with a BDDI running before them.
  12. That the only problem ive found with low hanging bags. You end up walking along the road looking like you have a full nappy 😀
  13. Guitar Guitar. Wont go in to it, but had despicable service from the manager of one of their shops.
  14. Yeah, but it does seem quite low for a gigging combo.
  15. Thinking of order one of these next week. Im ok with the software being iOS as id probably use my ipad more than my Mac anyway. Ive looked at a couple of the support documents but cant see if the unit still needs a PSU or if it runs off bus power from the ipad. Im guessing it needs a PSU as well though?
  16. Gone off this now lol. Most likely get the B2 Four as i would prefer to be able to switch individual FX on and off, plus the USB interface will be really handy.
  17. Just looking at the 210 combo. Even that is rated quite low. 160 W Continuous (RMS) 300 W Peak.
  18. You are correct, that is what it says on the Boss website. I guess it gets confusing when other figures not on the spec list are quoted.
  19. My thinking is always that they did their market research and designed for that rather than to please everyone. Isn't it 500watt - 250watt though? It does seem a bit strange that it costs more than the combo though.
  20. I had that Levy's bag (got it iwth an HW-1 bass) and loved it. Never had any damaged to my basses in it, and when wearing it on just one shoulder the headstock sat that the same height as my head. This allowed melt also wear a rucksack in the proper way. Ive never managed to get another bag like it. Im now resigned to using a ‘better’ bag and use both straps, but have had a hard time finding one that sits low. I really wanted a Mono but those sit high, i recently got a Fender and that sits even higher. Turns out the best for me is an old Sire bag ive had for a few years.
  21. I think I’ll get this. Coming back to bass i realised i sold off my BDDI. I like that the 60B+ has a BDDI with more Mid freq’s selectable. Even more than the real thing. If i only use it for this its still over £100 cheaper. I do stil have my original 60B, and a B1 Four, which ill use until i can get the 60B+
  22. And how angry IEM users get when others don't go with the suggestion they change what already works for them 😂
  23. What appeals to me Is the built in FX and that it can be used as an interface. Pretty much does it all for me at home and live. I may wait until after the ‘best amp ever’ lot put their’s up for sale 😂.
  24. Another company messing things up. Doesn’t even have Netflix, Boss really dont have a clue do they? 😂 I like it and am looking for a new head……hmmm…..🤔
