I suspect that Minnow's tone makes everything sound so good. Very nice!

How much for the postage?

I'd love a black one - but alas... nowhere near Chester

Been playing with that - just to see what it does and doesn't do... I guess this is going to be a LOT of playing around with each and eveery effect that is not on the 60b and seeing what is usable and what is not. There are so many of the 60b's effects that I will never use so "losing them" is not going to be a tough pill to swallow. And I guess a backup of what I currectly have, patch wise, is imperative before doing anything!!! Thanks all

Cheers @MichaelDean - I guess it's time to spend money... again

Hi all, I've been reading recently, that there is a hack out there that allows any of the MS-x0 range of Zoom pedals to load/have all the other pedal's effects. I've seen that it's a fairly easy process. However, the one I'm interesting in, is a hack, or a rumour of a hack, that allows some, if not all of (our bass world) the MS-60b+ effects to be loaded onto the original MS-60b. Anyone heard anything about it? Is it true at all? I'm in the market to get the 60b+, mostly for the "better" effects, but if I can hack my old faithful... Anyway, my thanks in advance.

Damn, just watched a Bass the World YewChoob clip of the Fteletronica sub octave. I gotta get me one of these!!

As far as I am aware, the ZEM is not compatible with the older models... pity, cos I like your way of thinking

I'm really looking at changing my 60b for the 60b+... not for anything other than hear the sounds are just "that much better" than the 60b. Thanks mate - as ever!

The man with more pedals and the organist at St Paul's!!!! How're you finding the Zoom 60b+ over the older 60b @stewblack?

So I decided to have a good look into stripping down my outboard gear even more. I played around with my Zoom MS-60B and found - much to delight - that I can use an amp, set 100% flat and still use the cab option. So now the TC Electronic impulse response loader is off (as is the chorus, which as much as I adore chorus, I just don't use it in the pub band) and the Zoom does a decent enough cab sim. The DemonFX Tone Mallet is there only for my Ibanez BTB 6, as a preamp (the older BTBs are brilliant, but the vari-mid eq is a bit bleh after playing the Sadowsky). Before... After...

I have tried to use an amp with everything’s set flat, but I can’t seem to get it actually flat… as in, it sounds 100% dry. I’m stumped

Hi all, Here's a thought... Is it possible, with the Zoom MS-60B, to have just a cab, and no amp? I have a TC Electronic impulse response loader, but in my head, I'm wanting to remove it and use the Zoom's capability - if I can - to replace the IRL pedal. Is it possible to have just the cab? Kind regards Julian aka Glassmoon

Sadly Christmas flattened me, else I'd be super excited to chat. GLWTS mate.

So I've decided on a possibly somewhat radical change of mind. Instead of dropping in the VTC circuit, I've decided to play with taking the treble pot out (disconnecting the treble circuit completely) and putting in a passive tone pot. I will never use the active treble boost (in nearly 30 years, I've never boosted the highs) but the passive pot sounds wonderful. Thoughts?

I've considered them... maybe half wounds, or ground wounds, or whatever they are called... I play Elixir, which gives me some "softness", but let me look into that... stop me slapping at least 🤣

My P2 is attached to my mic stand (see the picture) and then via a. Mini jack extension lead. So easy to use. So clear. So inexpensive

I need to see if it does. The IRL world is very new to me. I still need to find a cab that I absolutely love.... But that requires money and it can become costly to buy and not like LOL I need to try the parametric EQ on the Zoom (with the ILR switched off) and then fiddle with LPFs Thanks all

Oooh. Thanks for those valuable ideas. I will try everything suggested and see what works and what doesn't. Last question, I use the unit for a cover band, so I have my stock, no FX patch (which goes into an impulse loader). I have a synth bass patch, a keyboard bass patch, one nasty dirt patch and two patches I use with a line selector to turn an effect on or off during the song.... So do I put the eq I end up with at the start of the chain, or the end? I'd say at the start? Many thanks for the replies

Hello everyone I have a question about the Zoom MS-60B and how it potentially might be used to "tame" particularly harsh or overly bright pickups. I have a Sadowsky MetroExpress 5, the basic model without the VTC circuit. I find the pickups way too bright and harsh for my taste, and short of replacing the pickups with a more vintage option, I was wondering if anyone has any suggestions on how I could use the MS-60B to curb that harshness - perhaps, something that might warm up and round out the tone (for want of a better description). I know there are some very handy preamp options available in the Zoom, but I have barely scratched the surface of what this unit can do. As ever, my deepest thanks on advance. Julian aka Glassmoon
