gapiro Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 I've got £60 of amazon vouchers to spend on something bass related. I'm bit of a loss what to look at.... I have my rig and have no interest in anything else. The strings are new, and sound good. I have just about everything I need. (I use a music standfor it as can also put paper set lists on it) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
synthaside Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 (edited) What about an audio interface for getting your bass into your PC ? and using virtual amps and such on your Pc / mobile device for home recording / practice use [url="https://www.amazon.co.uk/Line-Sonic-Port-Audio-Interface/dp/B00CS4L7DK/ref=sr_1_14?s=musical-instruments&ie=UTF8&qid=1464191519&sr=1-14c"]https://www.amazon.c...191519&sr=1-14c[/url] or this for more pc inclined https://www.amazon.co.uk/PreSonus-Audiobox-iOne-Presonus-Interface/dp/B00KBMAJU8/ref=sr_1_12?s=musical-instruments&ie=UTF8&qid=1464192091&sr=1-12 pretty much exactly at your price level.

gapiro Posted May 26, 2016 Author Share Posted May 26, 2016 Actually, something I just thought of - I am always in need of a small mixer type thing so I can put my DB and Electric into a single amp.... ideally with a mute on - time to search!

thatgrantboy Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 Could you buy an A/B line switcher type pedal to do that? Less cumbersome than a mixer of some sort, perhaps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thatgrantboy Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 (edited) Much like what the Behringer AB-100 would allow then? (won't let me paste the link). Two inputs, a level adjustment on each, and the option to put them to the same out. Tis lower end of the market, but I'm sure there are higher-end options out there! edit: Or a Boss AB-2 (though no line level control) Edited May 26, 2016 by thatgrantboy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] No, the AB100 doesn't work that way. If you A-B two inputs into one output, IIRC one of the level controls sets the level for both. If you A-B one input into two outputs, then you can set two different levels.
