What does the rest of you setup look like? Do you still get the hiss if you go direct bass->amp?

You’re going to need to thing about a couple things Number of inputs you need Number of outputs you need Number of mix busses you need Everyone needs their own mix (not a question, the truth) Do you want to run stereo? (If you can, do it, but now you need 2x the mix busses and outputs) Who is...

The Line 6 Helix line just got a new polyphonic pitch shift/octave in version 3.0 that might be worth checking out.

GC has a 45 day return policy on used items. It wouldn’t make sense to not refund your layaway, because you could just buy it and then return it.

I’m a big fan of the Gruvgear Gigblade (I have a Silver), because I usually just carry over one shoulder, but it’s really going to depend on how you use the bag. If you’re just carrying a block from car to gig, then I feel like the gigblade is a great option. If you tend to use the backpack...

The big brass bridge saddles look like an Epiphone Accu-Bass, but the neck pocket isn’t right for that. Maybe somebody modified it to fit a different neck?

The latching push button connectors work fine. Shure sells a cable with the latching TA4F, s well as a bunch of the other accessories that also use the push button connector. Having said that, I’m not sure that the latching connector will really be an improvement in your case. The threaded...

Pretty sure the GLXD belt pack has a mini XLR 4 pin, which is the Amphenol AG4F, not the 3 pin.

Did you maybe just upgrade the firmware, and not HX Edit?

Try enabling the “Original Audio” setting in the Zoom application on your PC In the advanced audio settings: (Under audio settings, hit the “advanced” button) - turn on the option to “Enable Original Audio” - Disable the noise suppression options - Set echo cancelation to “Auto” Once in the...

It's a pretty basic patch, Using a low/high cut at 40Hz/7kHz, a split at 500Hz to the distortion pedal (Teemah!), then to the Obsidian 7k, the IR, and a volume block connected to and expression pedal. Here's the patch file if you want to just import. You'll need to either find a suitable IR...

On thing to remember on helix is that you don’t have to have a traditional signal chain. So you can use a pre-amp direct in to a speaker cab, for example. My go-to on helix is the Obsidian 7000 (Darkglass B7k) into a 3sigma Markbass 410HF IR. You can also put a volume pedal after the cab if...

A tip I picked up for bass wah on the helix is to add a split crossover before the wah to keep some low end. I have mine set at 250hz, using the UK Wah 846, and am pretty happy with the result.

Does anyone have a real weight on a production instrument? Annual bonus coming in March, Have the 1505MS in Pacific Blue Burst already on preorder

@fdeck hinted at it, but I’ll come out and say it. That’s way to much money for that scope. The HP1707 is a fine scope, It was my first scope, and I think it’s still hiding in my basement somewhere. But realistically, it’s close to 50 years old, and things have changed. The entry level...
