Calling all orange terror amp users

[gub]

What settings do you go with ? I am playing with my jazz bzss atm but i am am so crap at knowing what sounds best ,and sometimes the sound doesn't seem to cut through the mix live , I normally go with mid halfway bass halfway treble half , and gain 3 . I know a lot depends on lots of different things , room size etc etc but just looking for some sort of yard stick really

hi

One thing ive never had a problem with is cutting through the mix with my Terror Bass. The eq appears to be passive, and typically flat will be bass & treble fully off, mid fully on. I tend to use bass at 12 oclcock, mid about 11 oclcock and treble somewhere between fully off and 9 oclock ish.

Those settings work very well with my Jazz.

also, what cab are you using? I'm using a BF Compact.

Cheers for that ,i am Using a trace Elliot 2x10 ATM until I can afford to get something else

When I had mine I put Bass & Treble on full, Mids at midway. This was a Precision into OTB into Marshall 412. Sounded good.

Cheers lozz, not tried that yet , will have a play around before gig on sat .

Totally flat, played into an Orange SP210. Tend to add some lows from the bass tone controls rather than on the amp but that might be a limitation of the cab.

All about the gain control IMO.

To offer a different perspective, I use mine regularly with just a 2x10 and it works so well that I've just gotten rid of my additional cabinet. Don't mean to argue and YMMV

Ymmv ?

Your Mileage May Vary

I love my OTB to bits, but I'd never waste much time on the EQ - it has a very limited range, and is best just "set & forget" IME.

I have all my EQ set to 9:00. It feels so wrong to look at at!

I dont like the mids on the OTB so I cut them to give me a smoother, fatter sound. The bass booms out far too much for me so I have to cut that down too to stop it drowning everything out, and I always cut treble on my bass and amp.

I just set mine all flat and gain to taste. I would suggest and active preamp or an eq pedal to craft a decent sound!
