    Double Bass Stagg EUB megathread

    The original strings are for sale, and they are cheap (35e): Invalid Link Removed BTW: I got a quote of 510e for a EDB RDL from a German reseller: is that a good price?

    Double Bass AlterEGO EUB megathread

    Guys if you are really interested in finding an used one you should also check the italian's classified: - Invalid Link Removed As it is not a disaster to ship one overseas it could be worth it.

    Double Bass Stagg EUB megathread

    Me is in Italy, an order from Thomann is easy as there are no shipping fees over 400e and the return policy / customer support is very nice: I've got one month to test the instrument and send it back in case (this would be just for the EUB, stand and the bow). And in stores around here it...

    Double Bass Stagg EUB megathread

    He I know. Usually default equipped strings are rubbish, I'm not shure of how much better a set of prelude would be (I guess they are something like Pirastro Violino or Thomastik Vision) but still I don't know if it would be wise for me to cash for a definitive (expensive) set of string without...

    Double Bass Stagg EUB megathread

    Guys would you recommend this EUB for bowing? I'm a violin and EB player and i would like something to bow. There's no way I'm gonna buy a whole real UB, as a matter of fact I'm not really interested in having one: something just in between of a fretless and a UB would do for me. In case: 1)...

    Zoom B3 multi-effects

    Thanks! This is the problem but what I'd like to know is how to mange it with a software like amplitube on a PC, not on the Zoom. Would it be possible to get rid of the original "dry" sound of the bass when using Amplitube? Try this: when connected (B3 in bypass) to amplitube or GTR or...

    NOOB: Modelling / Amplitube: get off original sound

    I did not find anything in the manual of my Zoom, but I see that others "cheap" DAC (es. Behringer Xenyx 302 USB) are afflicted by the same problem: they don't have a specific control for "mixing" the original sound. Maybe I will try with linux, with Jack I should be able to have a better view...

    Zoom B3 multi-effects

    Can I use the B3 as DRY effect for a modeller like Amplitube in standalone? I mean: can I hear just the modelled sound WITHOUT the dry sound of my bass? Right now I'm using a Zoom G2.1 and I always have the dry - clean sound of my bass mixed with the sound processed by amplitube.

    NOOB: Modelling / Amplitube: get off original sound

    Thanks for your reply. I'm using Amplitube as a standalone (no DAW, it's very own interface in live), I'm checking the manual but I can't find where the insert / send control is... Any advice? I'm starting do doubt the my Zoom G2.1 is able to send a "DRY" signal through USB... Maybe the newer...

    NOOB: Modelling / Amplitube: get off original sound

    I'm an Amplitube (and others) noob: I use a Zoom G2.1 as DAC but as I use an amp modeller (es. Amplitube) I can hear my "original" clear bass sound along with the processed sound, if I turn down "master volume" in Amplitube I can clearly hear my clear bass. I tried to set my Zoom in bypass...

    Zoom B3 multi-effects

    Whoot that sounds encouraging, thanks guys. I need to buy a new pair of active speakers (for everything) and I was wondering if I throw some more money on them maybe with something like a B3 it could be an improvement from my orange crush 35w. Opinions?

    Zoom B3 multi-effects

    I was thinking about a digital set-up with a couple of active speakers like Behringer B3031A Truth ( 8" inch): do you think it's a viable solution for home practice?

    Active speakers w/o sub?

    That's a good advice. But as they are like 15 years old I'd really like to get something new and better now. Still I will look into repair them and put them for use, thanks.
