MOXYBASS Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 Hi Ordered MB500 fusion which arrives next week. I go away on holiday day after it arrives when I get back I have 2 gigs so wont have time to fiddle with settings. Any settings people use to get me started Switches on the top of unit - anyone use or leave alone for now. Gig 1 :- Rock Covers band (kings Leon - Led Zep) Gig 2 :- Originals - Like Fleetwood Mac / Texas PBass GK MB500 Fusion Barefaced BB2 and Barefaced Midget Ta Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mudpup Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 Limiter switch on the top - switch it on...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 Limiter on, I keep the other two switches off. After that try using a fair amount of gain so it starts to get hairy then set the volume to match the situation. With a very hot output p bass I tended to have it around 12o clock gain.

gary mac Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 I use a very similar set up to you. GK Barefaced BB2 and Super Compact. Unlike others I tend to not have the gain up high on this amp, my preference is for the master up higher. Most of the controls at 12 o'clock, with the mids boosted up a bit more. Switches on top off.

I have channel 2's gain maxed out though, and control this with the Master for that channel. Gives a nice warmer tone when needed using the foot switch.
