    dUg Ultra Bass 1000 - Tech 21

    I've owned and toured extensively with mid to late 70's model SVT's and always combined them with guitar amps to get my sound. The dUg amp to me, sounds like the split rigs I've ran my whole musical journey, but I can get that sound st a much lower volume if necessary! I'm sold on the Tech 21...

    dUg Ultra Bass 1000 - Tech 21

    I've been an avid Ampeg SVT user for years. Primarily late 70's models. I've played through 2-4 & 6 pro's and I can say that this amp just sounds better. The high and low pass filter system just blows away what a normal tube amp can do, and at much lower volume! Most Ampeg user just won't admit...

    dUg Ultra Bass 1000 - Tech 21

    While it is on the pricy side, it's still less than running an SVT on one side and a Marshall on the other line I was doing! I run two rigs currently. A dUg on one side and the VT 500 on the other and blend those two together. It's the most versatile setup I've ever used. I can go from knarly 12...

    dUg Ultra Bass 1000 - Tech 21

    I'm running 2-10 Carvin BRX cabs. 600watts at 4ohms each and they sound killer! Any bass cab will produce the distortion side of this amp as it's not like running a true guitar head, which I used to do before getting this amp. I've plugged this head up to an Ampeg 8-10 and it was amazing. I...

    dUg Ultra Bass 1000 - Tech 21

    I'm running two BRX Carvin 2-10 Neo cabs. They're both 600watts at 4hms. They're amazing little monsters that go down to 26hrtz. My big Hamer B12A is tuned BEAD, so it's very demanding on the cabs!

    dUg Ultra Bass 1000 - Tech 21

    I use my dUg along side a VT 500 and combine the sound. The VT runs all My effects while the dUg is running either single channel clean or both channels dirty. It's the most musical rig I've ever played through with so much variation in tone. I can go from scooped clean to bone crushing nasty...

    dUg Ultra Bass 1000 - Tech 21

    Actually we used the mix out and no cab. I'm n this session I was using my MM Stingray 5 and the sound was amazing. On the next session we'll be digging deeper and overdubbing some 12 string bass over the top of some tracks. The dUg sounds like I'm playing out of cranked SVT's. I'm loving this rig!!

    dUg Ultra Bass 1000 - Tech 21

    This is true. I'd be curious to see what's in the works! Just used my dUg on a session in Atlanta and Man it was amazing. The engineer was baffled at how good it sounded. Now they want to purchase one for the studio

    dUg Ultra Bass 1000 - Tech 21

    I'm guessing it's not going to be a preamp pedal, but more on the lines of an amp tweeker stompbox. The high and low pass filters of the dUg head would be a bit much but who knows! I would really like to see a preamp of the dUg with separate outputs for the gain and low end channels.

    dUg Ultra Bass 1000 - Tech 21

    I've tried a bunch of combinations and I'm pretty well setup with the dUg. As I stated, I'm running a second head with a mire traditional sound that also has all my effects going to it. Chorus, Envelope Filter, Synth and delay as well as a separate distortion with EQ boost. The dUg is set as a...

    dUg Ultra Bass 1000 - Tech 21

    Thank you for the response. My comments were based on personal experiences. I've used the RBI in the studio and lived it. I was able to get extreame bottom end while adding a gritty harmonic too end that I've only been able to achieve using guitar amps. I nearly purchased the VT 1000 after...

    dUg Ultra Bass 1000 - Tech 21

    The VT 1000 is basically two RBI's linked to an output section. Using the dUg is much more specialized as one is a LPF and the other a HPF. I personally don't think the Low end channel is good on its own. I'm running a separate amp for a clean sound and effect, while running the dUg for an...
