V4lve Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 Hi I tried using my phone in the aux in but it was way quieter than my bass, had to turn my bass down loads and then lose the impact of any effect. Is there any way I can bump up the aux in volume. Ta Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marvin Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 Could be the output from your phone, it might have a volume limiter on it??? Maybe? Just guessing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V4lve Posted November 26, 2013 Author Share Posted November 26, 2013 Nah. It's plenty loud enough straight into my headphones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyfisher Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 Sounds like you have a big difference in the input levels between your bass and your iPhone. Do you have a particularly 'hot' bass and do you have the input gain switch in the appropriate position? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V4lve Posted November 27, 2013 Author Share Posted November 27, 2013 That doesnt make much difference either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skydivepaul Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 (edited) My bg250 combo is the same when I use my iphone in the aux socket, I guess it is more or less the same amp as the bh250 However I notice that some songs are ok and others are not. Some of the songs on my iPhone have been downloaded from iTunes, direct from cd or from iomio. These all have differing output levels and I notice this when connected to my bluetooth radio in the car. Someone with expert mp3 knowledge may be able to help. To add to this I use my active ibanez and also my jazz bass in the amp and that doesn't make much difference either as the bg250 has a passive / active sense to change the input level I usually have to have my iPhone on full volume and the input gain for the guitar on around 4 for it to work nicely Edited November 30, 2013 by skydivepaul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
