Jesus man, who are you? The Bass Police? Just let the guy/gal use it however he/she likes. Some of the greatest innovations in music have come from using equipment in ways that it was never intended to be used. If you don't like it, that's fine, but you don't get to tell other people what to...

I agree. I'd be happy with a "non bass specific" processor if I knew that the bass performance had been given due weight and were not an afterthought. Yet if the bass products are going to cost more than the equivalent guitar product, which they do, it would be nice if they enjoyed a similar...

Yeah, I kind of meant available now, so I'll take that as a no. It's a shame that they haven't made their existing effects library compatible between their devices then. I wouldn't count on them releasing much new stuff for it in the future

Does Zoom Guitar Lab offer any extra effects, patches or IR's for the B6? I noticed that all their guitar products (G5/6/11) advertise it as a way to explore and download new effects, patches & IR's, but that claim is missing from the B6 page. If they don't have more bass specific stuff, then...

No. Not with regard to input impedances. [Caveat: it's complicated] Yes. Although it can seem counter-intuitive, Active inputs are lower impedance than Passive inputs. For example, on my Trace Elliot amp, the Passive input is 100k ohms and the Active input is 10k ohms. On a Fender Bassman 500...

That's highly subjective though; and more of a user preference than a drawback to the device. For my use case, stereo adds literally nothing, I have no use for it. Parallel signal chain processing would be far more valuable. Every user's use cases and preferences are going to be different...

Thanks for the feedback folks.

What are Zoom like for long term reliability? Warranty support? Bug fixing? The B6 looks like just what I'm after, but I don't get the sense that Zoom is in the same league for build quality and ongoing support as (some of) their competitors. Does anybody have long term experience with their...
