Ramirez Posted June 2 Share Posted June 2 Right, I've been messing around with pickups and mic for live use, and I think I've found something decent. Would you be happy sending this sound to FOH? Ā (Mind my intonationĀ š«¢!) Ā Ā Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeEvans Posted June 3 Share Posted June 3 Sounds good to me, what's the instrument and pickups? Ā Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Jack Posted June 3 Share Posted June 3 Sounds a lot like my Kolstein Busetto (Schaller 411 mag pickup, steel strings) but it doesn't really matter what you send to FOH ... what comes out the other side is in the lap of the Gods.Ā š Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramirez Posted June 3 Author Share Posted June 3 Thanks both. Ā I'll admit, there's a twist in this tale, which is why I'm not yet being specific - I'll wait for a few more opinions on the sound! Ā Aled Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickD Posted June 3 Share Posted June 3 That's strange. It sounds like bass guitar to me, even down to the string noise. It sounds good, but I can't picture it in my head as a DB. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ramirez Posted June 3 Author Share Posted June 3 Well, it isn't a double bass at all - it's a cheap Harley Benton Beatbass fretless and a cheap old piezo pickup I found in the shed, though an upright bass IR on a Line 6 Helix. Ā If I'm being honest, I'm unable to get a sound that's nearly as convincing from a pickup with my real upright! - my Krivo pickup sounds more 'electric', and the piezo doesn't work as well either.
