Bypassing Eq section.

[tom once dead]

Okay, I'm not sure if everyone knows this already and I'll look like an idiot.

But if you are running some sort of pedal (eg. for me my BDDI) You can still bypass the preamp section, without needing 3 leads. So instead of
Bass ------>amp input effects loop send-----> BDDI --->effects loop return./

you can run Bass--->BDDI---->effects loop return.

Sorry if everyone already knows this, but I thought it would be usefull.

Sounds like you read your BDDI manual. Good boy. That's where I learned that trick

accually I found it out from a friend, didn't even look at the manual.

I want to show my sincere support to this topic and similar ones as well. It doesn't really matter if most of the people know or not; if one person can benefit from the info, I say mission accomplished.

It's little tricks like this that convinced me to ditch the pre. and just use a tube slave a while back.
