    Newbie chasing tone. Am I crazy?

    I think we are assuming that you're using the bass in active mode, passive bass directly in to soundcard can sound a little thin. Unless you're, like most people here, James Jamerson. For a clean, nice sound youre looking for, I don't think you need much more equipment-wise. I don't think...

    This is a first.. NDA.

    You just need to ask if someone's bound to a particular NDA or has a top secret classification of some sort. If the answer is "I'm not allowed to tell.", you know. But then, you know, they know that you know, and you know you're f****.

    Should I stay or should I go...? Problem solved - Mods please delete thread

    Can you ask how the drummer feels about it? If he is on the same track, you would at least share the blame.

    How to generate latency in live situation?

    The phase difference (in degrees) is relative to frequency of the sound. The 0.7ms delay is equal to 180 degrees phase shift at one given frequency - I believe it's around 500Hz-1Khz. I suggested it, since it's might be easier option for most ppl to try out. I must admit I don't fully understand...

    How to generate latency in live situation?

    Hmm.. One way to fix the problem would be... to adjust the phase? Something like this : Phazer - Radial Engineering . Or simply something that reverses the phase 180 degrees - might make it better or not.

    So what does a $25k bass actually get you?

    I bet no-one told Prince that he should just gig with sunburst P-bass, instead of wasting money on that crazy Purple Special (that he never got chance to play, unfortunately). An example of matching ego and chops.

    Bass is extinct!

    But they have replaced drummers. Big chunk of music sales is produced without almost no real instruments. And you could generalize that any song with programmed drums has also programmed bass track. That doesn't of course relate to absolute number of drummers out there. The population of the...

    Zoom MS-60B Firmware Update 2.0 (June 2017)

    I got the VTBass only like one month ago. Tried it on both, fx return and preamp on my MB500 - I preferred simpler, let's call it 'puristic' approach. So.. I thought I need better EQ options, ignoring the preamp. Much because I'm still learning this stuff. May I ask, how you make your VT and...

    Zoom MS-60B Firmware Update 2.0 (June 2017)

    I haven't been using the eq in the amp, because I was not using the preamp section in it at all when using VT Bass as preamp - that's where I called myself 'pedant'. Also, while it's a good EQ, it's not graphic, let alone parametric, which would work better for the purpose.

    Zoom MS-60B Firmware Update 2.0 (June 2017)

    Thanks for the suggestions. As it is, I happen to lug around a GK MB500 already. Just been running my VT bass to FX return of the amp. You are probably correct, G-K's eq should be able to tame out any excessive frequencies in the room. I've been reluctant to use the pre section of the amp with...

    Zoom MS-60B Firmware Update 2.0 (June 2017)

    'Global EQ', now that's the word pair I was going for.. It's a pity, I realize that there's limit to these little boxes' processing power and it still would not function as 'one pedal to replace them all' for many. For me it would, so the option would ne nice. Always have to complain I guess. :)...

    hello from france

    Your music goes way beyond my playing abilities, but what a great band you have! Many times exactly this type of music has no feeling in it (or I don't get it). Not the case here. Reminds me of Zorn, Patton. And that's a lot said! :)

    Zoom MS-60B Firmware Update 2.0 (June 2017)

    Hi, 1st post! Been lurking around the board for ages though, this place rocks! Anyway, I'm curious about how you see the usability of the EQ effects with this pedal in following scenario: Practising in 2-3 different places and there's the occasional gigs too. Pedal setup with the patches and...
