Crawford13 Posted July 7, 2021 Share Posted July 7, 2021 Line 6 Studio 10, great little amp, I have had it for nearly 15 years. At other times I will use logic with my KRK monitors. Plug in wise I will either use Helix native, or the Neural DSP dark glass. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As does my bass, tbh. As they almost always do… Almost every guitar and bass player who ever bought any one of the programmable multieffects units goes crazy programming and tweaking in the beginning—best invention in the universe—then the reality that more time is spent fiddling with it than actually playing through it, finally sets in. It then either becomes a one setting wonder, or an object up for sale. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use my zoom b1-4 on a single patch I came up with that sounds nice through headphones for practicing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nibody Posted July 7, 2021 Share Posted July 7, 2021 Depending on mood, either Headphones into Ampeg SCR-DI, if I can be bothered turning the PC on then Amplitube 4/5 using the Ampeg amps pack.. but more usually this... Mooer Hornet White - can hook it up to the laptop by Bluetooth and jam along to my hearts content. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was so annoyed with the user interface I just went through the generally awful presets until I found one that sounded basically ok, spent a while getting the EQ right, and left it. I'm looking at the Hotone Ampero One which seems to have a good visual interface. Then I can build myself two or three settings, and it'll be a two or three setting wonder and I'll be happy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GreeneKing Posted July 7, 2021 Share Posted July 7, 2021 When I gave up the pursuit of my band ambitions forever a few years ago I was left with a TC Electronics BG250 (1x15) combo. Then I got the call from an old friend….. I bought an EBS HD350 from Lee Muir of this parish and an Accugroove Tri112L. What a nice rig it turned out to be. Then the TC combo failed - phut! By then I’d acquired a 2nd Accugroove and an EBS Fafner. Overkill with both cabs but in my little 6x5x5 foot practice den one cab and the HD350 are sonic heaven (if again a little OTT). I’ve just today acquired a more sensible amp head and this lovely, in fact quite awesome head will be up for sale soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreeneKing Posted July 8, 2021 Share Posted July 8, 2021 (edited) Rumble 200. Slightly saner and lovely. The Tascam goes straight into the amp and I’ve connected the Polytune to the fx out so a cleaner setup.

lozkerr Posted July 10, 2021 Share Posted July 10, 2021 This is mine. It's been tricky squeezing everything into a small flat, which is why the amp is on its side. I suppose I could simplify it a bit, but with the mic into one channel of the JS10 and audio out from the laptop into the other leaves nowhere to plug in the bass. Being able to record straight off Spotify or YouTube and use the speed control and looper is a big help. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have built four patches and ahhh the user interface...lovely Were I a serious guitarist, not a leisure bassist, I would have gone for the Headrush Gigboard, but I decided the additional functionality it offers would have just make me feel small 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SumOne Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 I go from pedals into a Allen & Heath Xone 23 DJ mixer and out of KRK Rockit 6 monitors (or headphones). Can play along to records or phone/laptop (and use 3 band EQ per channel, also has LPF and HPF) and the mixer has a built-in soundcard so can record to Laptop via USB. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveXFR Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 Here's my little corner of doom. If I'm completely honest, the 4x10 cab is just hiding a hole in the wall left by the plumbers. I'm actually just using the Orange 2x12 cab with the Trace head 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every now and then I break out a 15w Rumble, but that's pretty rare since picking up the Zoom. Oldish post, but I have a quick question for you. So when you play through your headphones you use the input jack on the zoom, I get that, but how do you get to here the tunes from Spotify through your headphones at the same time.

There's an aux in on the zoom, so I just use a 3.5mm jack to connect it to my laptop and we're away 😊 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All being well, the Demeter is soon to be displaced from this role by my home-build B15 clone. Fabulous amp...best I've used Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yango Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 (edited) This: or this: Living in a condo, playing through an amp would be a d**k head move. I want to stay friends with my neighbours. So it’s either my trusty Ovation Celebrity Acoustic Bass, or my EBMM/G&L through my Ampeg SCR-DI into headphones.

karrlander Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 This is my happy place at home. Pedalboard to a TC BAM200 in to a TC208 for bass and a Bose SP1 pro for all the other stuff. A Nux bass preamp with aux in and headphones out for silent practice. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
