MoonBassAlpha Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 I practiced this week with the Ashdown ctm15 and it was loud enough through 2 cabs with me standing right next to them. I'm going to try it at a gig tonight, hopefully get a cab mic'ed. Should I take my Shuttle 6 just in case it doesn't cut it? Will probably have 5 minutes line check to switch if it ain't up to it. Not worth the effort? What are your thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roland Rock Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 Yeah, the Shuttle is tiny, so well worth bringing this first time just in case. Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Starr Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 Unless you know the cab can be mic'd take the spare amp. You might be loud enough for stage monitoring but it isn't going to fill a big venue if you have a drummer in your band. We don't have enough details to be categoric but 15W?

MoonBassAlpha Posted November 1, 2015 Author Share Posted November 1, 2015 Well, the room wasn't too big, our drummer played at normal volume, with a small sized kit, only the bass drum miced. It sounded nice and warm and loud enough, and still gave extra noise when I kicked in the overdrive. Using both Midget and super Midget I had the input gain on 0, master on 8 and my (passive) bass on 8 too, just in case any extra was needed as we got louder during the set. Not required. The Shuttle stayed in its bag. All in all a very satisfactory result, better than I was expecting, by quite a bit. #chuffed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
