stewblack Posted October 4 Share Posted October 4 (edited) This is my new slimline rig The idea is to play with different preamps into the power amp stage of the HB Block. Last night I used the 'BassDrive' on the MS-60B, which is apparently a Sansamp clone. The pairing with the P bass and flats was chunky and very satisfying. The advantage of the digital multi is I could add a noise gate to tame the rather lively fuzz on my board. The HB fits beautifully on my 2x8 stack and unlike some amps the DI out still works when going into the effects return; rather more unusually so does the master volume, which is really useful. So there it is. I can gig with any 'amp' I choose. Let the fun commence. Edited October 4 by stewblack 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PinkMohawk Posted October 4 Share Posted October 4 Ohh that's very nice, I like it. Very into the line array style with the two vertical cabs as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PinkMohawk Posted October 4 Share Posted October 4 Yeah, I do wish more cabs were built with verticality in mind. Something like a staggered 4x10 would be awesome to see from a bigger manufacturer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stewblack Posted October 7 Author Share Posted October 7 Last night's preamp was provided by demon FX. The Harmonic Booster has a lovely flexibility, with bass and treble and a parametric mid range, but it's secret sauce is the character control which alters the whole sound. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stewblack Posted October 20 Author Share Posted October 20 Tonight the Behringer BDI is doing the heavy lifting. Into the HB Block and Barefaced Compact. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stewblack Posted October 28 Author Share Posted October 28 Last night I used the Behringer AD-I as recommended on this very forum. Better. Better than the BD-I, which itself sounded fantastic. This is more flexible, and more brown. Mmmm, brown notes. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
