    Boss GT-1B discussion thread

    Was just watching a YouTube video on GT-1B set up. Almost moved on thinking this is stuff I already know. Then the host says turn off your preamp when plugging into the front of your amp, you already have an Amp. OK got my attention. I've often wished I could plug into a clean unmodified...

    GT-1B for Compressor

    It's the first or physical button on this processor. It has a few different preset compressor types (mild, high band, orange, fat, etc) I'm not much into effects especially for bass but after so much reading I knew it would be to my advantage. Some of the guys I play with now are older...

    Boss GT-1B discussion thread

    Oversimplified response from an oversimplified setup guy, have you tried starting with the GT-1B and adding the rest one at a time ? I'm centering my response around the GT-1B, assuming that your claim is the GT-1B is causing problems... . Start basic, maybe you can at least eliminate what...

    Boss GT-1B discussion thread

    Just plugged into mine for the first time in awhile. It's always a good time fiddling and tweaking. Seriously thinking about setting it up to use for gigs. Compressor/ tuner my first priorities. I've never played through it stereo but looking forward to trying that too.

    Boss GT-1B discussion thread

    Anyone use the compressor on their GT-1B exclusively ? I've played around with tone studio enough to know there's soo much potential with this unit but I often avoid it, or just set aside four hours to get what I want done with it... only recently have I considered experimenting with the...

    What to use for home practice? Amp or no amp?

    I use a rumble 40, and Bluetooth my phone to a set of cheap stereo speakers I bought on Amazon. If I don't want to make any noise (wife watching tv....) I plug everything into my GT-1B, using a good pair of sony noise canceling headphones. Not exactly the discovery of the century but I'm...

    Yet another one didn't work out....

    Well I posted everything yesterday. Today he shows up wants to play. At the end he says he's OK if I go off with someone else but he'd hate to lose the friendship. I said it would take ten times what I get out of the partnership and I'd still take the friendship. So the bromance is mutual...

    Yet another one didn't work out....

    Yeah it did. He started playing MELLOW YELLOW, it sounds just like WHAT A DAY FOR A DAYDREAM. I bet it's in the same key. We only play mellow yellow. I on the other hand play both. I have an ear, yeah I can pick it up, but this whole fiasco is way more complicated than it has to be...

    Yet another one didn't work out....

    Far as I'm concerned it's worked out amicably. Thanks for the help. Seriously. I knew where I was stuck and that was non negotiable. I did what I needed to, and came clean yesterday. Speaking of yesterday, I stopped over a buddies house last night, asked if I could play a few songs...

    Yet another one didn't work out....

    I hear you. Maybe my expectations are too high, I deff I did. After he said he'd walk off stage I returned to the mic and played my ass off with a smile. It was the only thing I could come up with to stay as professional as possible and give the crowd the best we could. I acted like all...

    Yet another one didn't work out....

    That's exactly where I'm at. I just don't see that changing. I knew it could be an issue going in, I had a talk about it prior to playing out, it was an issue at both gigs, and it's turned into a bigger issue. I know I can't change people, I'm not sure if I was trying to, I just...

    Yet another one didn't work out....

    Agreed. Right now that's where I'm at. I did my part today and took it easy. He had yet another chance to come clean. The first gig we played had a similar component, not as bad, I called him on it after the show, he apologized. With the second one I'm talking about here, his actions...

    Ha ha, logical question, no, neither of us drinks.

    Yet another one didn't work out....

    Thank you guys for the well thought out responses, the people in this sub always go above and beyond, and I always gain whether I agree with the response or not. There's no way to repay that besides trying to do the same for others... He stopped by today, hung out at the pool a bit, then put...

    Yet another one didn't work out....

    There is some truth and wisdom to what you are saying, but an hour or more after this happened I was then dealing with a lie. So o I've dealt with liars before. How do you deal with that ? That's where I said eff him, there's no holds barred at that point. As far as the friend part, yeah we...
