What can a sansamp do for me?

[quote name='GarethFlatlands' post='942853' date='Sep 1 2010, 11:53 PM']Had my first proper practice tonight with the Sansamp and wow, through my practice amp, a Peavey TKO (or is it a TNT?) it sounded amazing. I wasn't even driving the amp hard but the sound filled the room. Just put the EQ on as flat as possible and used the amps volume controls. I totally underestimated the difference it would make. If you can try one out, you'll want one![/quote]


Why not put it into the effects return jack socket and all you are using the amp is for the power side only and the SA is doing all the tone shaping. That`s what I do and it`s the biz.

Agree, I used to have one of these, with a Trace AH300, I think it was. Made the Trace sound all nice and warm and valvey. Great bits of kit. I`ve currently got the Behringer BDDI - does nearly the same as the Sansamp, not quite as good, but then its less than a quarter of the price. Def worth every bassist having one of these types of pedal in their gig-box, for those "just in case" moments.

I don't think it has an effects return but there is a 'Power amp in' input which I assume will do the same job. I'll give it a whirl!
