rmshaw37 Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 Well, it's been a couple of years coming but I finally have the sansamp RBI to go with my RPM!! I've got to say though, as a stand alone pre, it's better than the rpm! But both together through this rig, it's breath taking!! Got to get a proper 6u case, and trying out an ampeg 410 with my 115 next weekend, but ATM, SERIOUSLY impressed! Hope the pic loads up off the iPhone! As we know, without pics, it doesn't exist! Bugger, it won't! Hold on 10 mins lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blademan_98 Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 That rig looks sweeeeeet the addition of a 410 will top it all off! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cd_david Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 Are you using the internal switching function to use a a 2 channel pre or are you running them in series? I have the RBI and have always thought about getting the RPM to do this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmshaw37 Posted March 5, 2011 Author Share Posted March 5, 2011 the rbi is set to distorted highs - power amp - 10s (just rolled the bass off and back the treble down - it seems really bitey with distortion) the rpm is fat clean low - power amp - 15 (rolled the mids out around 1k out but set the treble to about 1 o clock) the unaffected of the rbi goes into the rear input of the rpm good lord does it get you moving now! but as stated earlier - if you're looking to do this set up, go for the rbi first! the rpm is perfectly gigable, and i have done for a couple of years, but the rbi just has such a more musical overdrive - even all the way up to full its still useable! next step is to mess about with the full band at rehersal to determine where the rpm mids should be so i dont mess with the guitards tone, and drums, too much! another big nod to tech 21 is that its just so neat behind it! with right angled jacks they are not in the way at all, and SO easy to get to the DI's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing I can imagine sounding better than my Neo's is a Bergantino NV610 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steviedee Posted April 3, 2011 Share Posted April 3, 2011 I had an RPM ordered from DV247 but they are now out of stock which is a bit annoying I'll have to see if I can get one elsewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
