vsmith1 Posted November 23, 2022 Share Posted November 23, 2022 I am happy with it. I got set up with a Hotone Ampero Controller using MIDI and able to switch between presets, and toggle the FX in a preset on and off. Saves a pedalboard. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve been having a proper ball with my little e500 but haven’t used it on any gigs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lozz196 Posted December 11, 2022 Share Posted December 11, 2022 Now that is a great looking old school style rig 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DGBass Posted December 11, 2022 Share Posted December 11, 2022 This was my rig of choice for a recent gig and one of the few gigs I've done this year that hasn't involved an Ashdown ABM. It was more a nostalgia trip to use this Trace Elliot as I was intending to sell all my Trace Elliot kit at the time and have now done that. The AH200 GP12 is quite a special bass amp and in my experience always punched way above its weight and had that sound. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Franticsmurf Posted December 11, 2022 Share Posted December 11, 2022 The bass set up for yesterday's gig with the Hulla Band. Medium sized room, circa 100 people, full PA support so this was for the listening pleasure of me and the drummer. I was using IEM too, as I'm in the process of moving over to it full time in this band. The drums weren't going through the PA so I had one ear 'free'. The board was my standard for this band - tuner>comp>EHX Soul Food (grit)>MS60b (chorus and fretless patches)>BAM200 with DI to the desk. A glass of orange squash completes the line up. 😃 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRB5 Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 A bit battered and dusty but I love the setup. The guitar however does get a clean from time to time. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This. On Saturday I did it with a cup of tea on my hand, courtesy of the hotel we were playing at. Tea and gig - can't beat it. 😃 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tony_m Posted December 18, 2022 Share Posted December 18, 2022 Slight change of tack(le) for the last couple of rehearsals and this weekend's gig. Rather than the usual MAG300 combo or Trace AH200 + BLX-110 cab, thought I'd give my old Five Fifteen mini rig a run out as it stands a chance of being heard (at least onstage) against our electronic drumkit. Unfortunately it doesn't have a Line Out or DI, and I don't possess a mic to stick in front of the cab, so I ran the DI out to the desk from the Ashdown Graphic EQ / DI pedal instead, and just used the mini rig for personal monitoring in addition to the floor monitor. Worked well in rehearsal and at Saturday's gig without having to be pushed too hard, though I'll probably be using the Trace setup for our next gig as it's a bit smaller and I find it easier to carry upstairs (yes, really! 💪 ). Bonus mention for the recently-acquired Lekato WS-80 wireless thingies - worked perfectly for strolling round the hall while soundchecking, and I'm sure would have worked just as well during the gig, but the Luddite in me couldn't bring himself to abandon his tweed lead just yet... 🙄 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigRedX Posted December 19, 2022 Share Posted December 19, 2022 Here's mine for Hurtsfall from Sunday night's gig at the "In The Black Midwint2r" festival: Apologies for the crap low-light phone photo. Eastwood Hooky into Line6 Helix and then straight into the PA via an EMO passive DI box. For this that are interested, the foot switch to the left controls the sequencer - middle pedal for stop/pause and right hand pedal to run a macro which closes the current song and opens the next one in the set list. The yellow cable going into the Helix is MIDI to select the correct Preset for each song (on load) and also send Snapshot commands mid-song to change the sounds without me needing to worry about hitting the correct switch as well as playing the right notes. I've used this twice now anomy live performance has improved considerably. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pea Turgh Posted December 21, 2022 Share Posted December 21, 2022 Not the weekend as such, but just got in from a rare outing. Took a Zoom pedal for a little HPF & compression. No idea what it sounded like 🤪 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JPJ Posted December 24, 2022 Share Posted December 24, 2022 Bass corner from tonight’s gig. First time I’ve played a “social club” in years, I’d forgotten about the 45 minute break between sets! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
