A big thank you to everyone. The reason it gets too loud is because my baby son sleeps in the bassment, and when you add the Hi-Fi to play with a track, the volume goes up and up. I don't really like Amplitube 5, it gets weird sometimes with the audio. I will for sure try direct in my...

I love your suggestion of using a DI im front of the Focusrite to shape the tone. Do you have recomendations for the DI? Thank you.

I just ordered my Mark Hoppus 'replica' from Kiesel. I've been playing guitar almost all my life, but I know nothing about bass amp. I once had a Fender Rumble 25, but it was impossible to play quietly enough. I would also like the option to plug it in my audio interface and use the live...

I'm picking up a Squier Vintage Modified Jazz bass tonight and I'll need an amp. I know NOTHING about bass amps. I'll be playing punk rock at home only, at low volumes. Any suuggestions on which amp I should be getting? Thank you.

I'm 100% new to bass, (not music and playing instruments). I need a 4 strings bass for punk music. What I'm looking for is an instrument that will be built well enough that the neck will be nice and setup well. I had a new Squier years ago and the neck was so bad that it put me off playing...
