cocco Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 Does anyone have a gizmo that they can jam through headphones with but still get a good sound? Alas my 200 watt valve rig is too loud for home use Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gelfin Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 (edited) I use one of these. Works fine for me.

geoffbyrne Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 I have a Digitech Genesis 1 (I have 2 actually, plus a Genesis 3). Headphone out of laptop into 'Line In' on Genesis. Plug headphones into Genesis. Plug bass into Genesis - set up amp/cab/tone. Play track on laptop & play along. Genesis 1 is not terribly expensive on Ebay. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Digitech-Genesis-1-Guitar-Signal-Processor-/131276398492?pt=UK_Musical_Instruments_Outboards_Effects_MJ&hash=item1e90aedf9c http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Digitech-Genesis-3-GNX-series-Guitar-effects-/231317087234?pt=UK_Musical_Instruments_Outboards_Effects_MJ&hash=item35db92a402 The Genesis 1 is pretty straightforward, but the Genesis 3 (no idea what happened to Genesis 2) is a much more complex beast, being, in effect, a programmable Digitech GNX-1 Multi-FX in a manual box. We also use 2 xGen1 & a Gen3 plus electronic drums into a small mixer, with a line-in from the PC then a small Berhinger 4-output headphone unit. This allows up to 4 of us to jam silently. G.

Pukie Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 Following a recent thread on here about using an ipad as a pre amp , (sorry I can't find the thread otherwise I'd post a link to it - but the thread contained link to this website [url="http://www.tayste.co.uk/2014/02/24/the-ios-bassist-pt1-an-introduction"]http://www.tayste.co.uk/2014/02/24/the-ios-bassist-pt1-an-introduction[/url] which contains all the info you could need ) ..... I have been using iRig + the Jamup XT app + the two bass expansion packs into headphones/Asda computer speakers! Loads of amps and effects to play with, you can jam along to stuff in your itunes library, and record as well really excellent fun . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
