ikay Posted October 12, 2014 Share Posted October 12, 2014 (edited) You've answered it yourself - when the button is IN the signal is pre-EQ which means the signal from the XLR output is not affected by the EQ settings on your amp. Sending a clean bass signal to the PA (rather than a signal that has been tweaked for your stage sound) is generally a good thing so this is the setting I'd use.
