So I pretty much run ampless. I run sound for my band and I send myself a custom monitor mix that works for me. I usually use a BP355, or BDDI with my wireless. Recently, alot of space had opened up on our FOH rack box. I have the space for a R I, my rack tuner and rack wireless. I'm thinking about putting those items in the box. Then basically all I would bring to gigs is my bass.
This sounds too easy...thoughts, comments would appreciated. Thanks.

| | | | Umm...will your tuner be very useful if you move it to FOH? And what is an R I?
Edit: Since you run sound, is your FOH on stage? Not really FOH, I guess.

I like it well enough to get through a gig if lugging the amp and cab is a consideration (like playing a week downtown with a fast or non-existent loading zone). I always prefer the amp too, but this setup can be quite satisfactory. |

| | | | The minute you put those things in the rack, you'll find a reason to want to take your bass setup somewhere without the PA.
Not a problem but I recommend having a quick charging Mikita handy. |

I was a little slow and didn't realize you were the former, not the latter. I'm sure you sound great, and hats off to you. Running sound can be quite a distraction. |

Why I didn't do this years earlier? Phhht, i wish I knew. Got my sound, without hauling extra stuff and setting it up at each gig.
Guess Im getting older and lazier!

| | | | I use the xlr on the RBI to FOH
I have a swr 750x i use just as a power amp and a ampeg 410 HE which is basically my "monitoring rig".
Couple other gizmos of course. Line 6 wireless, pod hd in the effects loop just for effects(doubles as a headphone amp for all night practicing) bbe sonic stomp infront of the sans amp for a little EQing. But I could get by with my conklin and the RBI if I could hear myself decently | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
