You mean like play an active bass and turn the treble down a smidgen? 🤣

Ah OK. I know it was £18.99 for a TWIN pack of 4 strings!

£28.99 for the 5 strings according to that Amazon link.

Not all rechargeables are created equal! Get a very good brand and they will match the best + you don't have to last as long if you have 2 sets and swap them out.

Actually the original Tonex Pedal can be had for £250 which is a canny drop on what I recall the cost being on release! Looking at it though, I'd still need to run other pedals for phaser (+ my other part time band needs me to use an Octave & Chorus)... back to the drawing board! LOL

Yeah it was the £118/£128 that was appealing to me initially. If I start looking at £300 I could buy a pair of Tonex ONE pedals... but my budget isn't stretching past £150.

Mid gig, busy schedule, I'd not want to shuttle between modes! I can add pedals but I'm looking for a 1 pedal solution.

That makes sense. Sadly it won't allow a 'clean' amp setting and then a dirty (crunch) setting and then a phaser/flanger setting for use in a set 'on the fly'. I can have 2 out of the 3 but not all 3.

To clarify @bnt - you can set up slot/preset A to have an amp sim and a couple of effects and have slot/preset B to have an amp sim and different effect(s)? I essentially require 1 global amp tone/EQ and then I add either a bit of drive (for 3 songs) or a flanger (2 song). I don't think the Tonex will work for me as that is effectively 3 settings; clean / dirty / flanger. I'll end up having a preamp pedal (which I have a few of) before the Tonex and the Tonex would be set up with A = dirt / B = flanger. Not a one pedal solution. I've just bought a 2nd hand Zoom MS 60B (not the +) which 'probably' gives me what I need but it is not intuitive (at the moment) to set up, to fit my one pedal solution.

Tonex experts... Can you answer please? Tonex ONE in stomp mode, is it running one of the amp modes in the background or is it purely acting as a single use pedal (when off it is bypassed)? Can't find the answer online.

We use a 15" FBT sub (small and one person carry if need be) and it does great with a pair of QSC K10 tops. However... small to small/medium is about its max; medium bordering on medium/large would be too much.

Yes I'm aware of the general over exaggeration of some of the new amps but I seem to recall the old RB400 (200w) being very loud (for solid state), the 800RB seemed way louder than the 300+100w.

That inherent 'compression' which can be replicated; is that why (old) GK RB amps sounded louder than the rated (solid state) watts @Bill Fitzmaurice? Did they use compression? I seem to recall harmonics/boost etc being bandied about.

It will work if you add a router but not something I thought we needed but could be added later.

I've joined a new band so rehearsing to get up to speed (sax player has just been added to). The CQ12 doesn't allow for individuals to set own mixes so I just set an 'average' mix for everyone with each of the 6 individual aux outs that are assigned to members having a bit more of that person in the mix.

I take our QC12 desk to all of our rehearsals (at a professional rehearsal space); I simply swap out the speaker leads of the in-house desk for our desk! All settings saved and quicker set up times plus I get to practice using the desk.

I have passive basses, I have active basses... I have active, passive basses. I have pedals, I have preamps, I have preamp pedals and I have amplifiers... ALL of these things turn the passive electronics into 'active' so I don't ever think about it. If I had to make an absolute choice I'd choose active; it's like passive but MORE!

Output can go; nowhere/personal monitor/combo/amp&cab/IEM/anywhere.

Interested to know the answer as I have backline gear (inc T'funk 550 and a TKS115) but I generally run a preamp pedal into PA. I'd like to have a little Sumo sized power amp for the occasion when cabs are supplied/available.

Looks a bit 'fickle' to me!
