dannybuoy Posted January 17, 2011 Share Posted January 17, 2011 Perfect fit too, I was wondering whether my AD200 would be too wide for a vertical 2x12. You just pipped me to the post on that cab Jim, please let me know if you ever decide to sell it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

guybrush threepwood Posted January 17, 2011 Share Posted January 17, 2011 Yummy! I almost went for the 2x12 Matamp option too, but then found one of these at an ex-demo price... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lojo Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 [attachment=69250:finbass.jpg] Sadly I don't own these anymore, to heavy, although that is a small price to pay for what they sound like Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] LOL, the egineer used 4 channels to record bass: 1. One pointing at the cone (clarity) 2. One Poining at the port (sub bass sound) 3. One DI 4. One coming out of the sansamp The set up was mad Bass>DI box>Desk DI box>Line out >TU2>Sansamp>desk TU2 bypass > to Amp (which was mic'ed twice) I had the most complicated set up for the smallest footpint rig.

But the voicing definitely favours lower mids; my p bass sounds punchy as heck, whilst the stingray simply growls. Love it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garethfriend Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 Here's mine: [attachment=69417:P1020430.JPG] Orange Terror Bass 500w on top of a Barefaced Vintage, bass is a SBMM SB14 with a nordstrand mm4.3 pickup in it. Sounds massive and punchy, real presence in the mix without having to get all jingley and trebley to cut through. Must admit my first bass experience with valves has made me want to get a full valve setup like the ad200mk3. One day..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dosi Y'Anarchy Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 The Matamp 212 in Jim's post (first post) used to be mine, unfortunately my Terror never even got to see it, but it now has Jim's beautiful GS112nt cabs for company. Also the Matamp cab deserved the AD200b. I think the Orange/Aguilar combo looks smart as hell, its much smaller than my previous Zoot 210/115 rig and easier to transport than the Matamp 212 (as its 2 separate cabs) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact I used this rig to record with last weekend so once it's done I'll post soundclips on here. It sounds absolutely lush and it's not even been mixed/mastered yet!
