Number6 Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 I run my bass a couple of effects (chorus, flanger etc) and my Kaosillator through my amp. Do you think i should use a separate amp for each? The sound seems okay as i only use the synth for depth of sound underneath the instruments. In some venues i can use the PA others prefers the musicians to use backline. What do you run through your amp? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JapanAxe Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 (edited) bass > lead > amp When I used to play a bit of keys as well,Ii just put that through the PA as my rig was two 1x15s, no tweeters. If you have a 'full range' bass rig you may well get acceptable results putting other stuff through it.

thisnameistaken Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 My amp is pretty flat-sounding and my cab is 2x12 with a tweeter so it handles effects just fine. Live if I get any time to soundcheck I send two signals to the desk so FoH can have a separate effects channel, but usually I just give them one DI and expect them to turn the whole lot into the usual awful flabby mush that sound techs in metal band T-shirts seem to think is a good sound.

Lozz196 Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 Bass, Tech21 VT DI, Amp. Any DI to FOH PA goes from the Tech21, so I can adjust on-stage volume/eq keeping the sound I want for the band through the PA. It also makes sound-guys happy as thee signal they get isn`t faffed around with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
