    Double Bass signal chain: EDB-2 to active monitor and FOH?

    Hej hej, I'm running my bass into an EDB-2 into an active monitor (EV Everse 8). How would I get my signal to the FOH while keeping my personal monitor? Is it possible to use the EDB-2's line out and DI out at the same time? (One for my monitor, one for FOH) The EV8 has an XLR Mix Out to be...

    Clean DI position

    Hi everyone! I´d like to send a clean DI signal to FOH, but I´m not sure where to put it in my signal chain (before or after my tuner). Does putting it first make that the clean signal isn´t muted in FOH? Therefore is it better to put the clean DI second in my chain? Thanks in advance!

    Options for using a Crest Prolite 2.0 with a Tech21NYC GED 2112

    So I have a GED 2112 coming my way and I’ve been researching the best way (for me) to set it up with my Crest Prolite 2.0 power amp to feed my Greenboy F212 cabinet. I’ve read through a bunch of the threads on TB and have a decent idea of how to blend the two sections of the pre either through...

    Taking control of FOH sound

    Wondering how you are handling your own FOH sound. This is really only regarding a bar room type setting without a sound guy. Here's my situation. I make great efforts to set my sound to where it will blend well with the live mix in a 4 piece band. I use a wireless to walk out and check...

    Ampeg SCR-DI vs Radial JDI for FOH signal

    So here is my slow-day-at-work-spent-in-the-depths-of-a-DI-rabbit hole “situation”: I played in a band a few years ago. We gigged a considerable amount, and most sound guys would either mic my cab or use a house DI. Flash forward to the present, and that same band has reconvened. As we’ve...

    I hate it when people ask if I'm the DJ. My boss left this by the front door. The 'no Mustang Sally' goes on all our promo,and posters, not just jam night.

    Two DIs from the FOH Perspective

    The long thread about micing a tube amp vs. DI for live sound and the argument of the missing sound of the effects when using just the plain DI signal got me thinking. From a sound engineers perspective, would there be any benefit or sense in using two DIs? For example: Passive P-bass => cable...

    Are the cab simulator pedals any good?

    Hi Talkbass! For my home setup, I'm using an Ampeg PF-20T into my soundcard, and mostly I practice with headphones. Sometimes I record using this setup. Now this sounds pretty decent, but it is clear that it does not match my full stack from the rehearsal space. I'm wondering if maybe the lack...

    Octave pedal problems in FOH

    I use a P bass and MXR bass octave deluxe. All knobs at 12:00 with the mid engaged sounds great through my Markbass but the FOH engineer recently said he was getting too much low end. Is this a normal problem when using octave pedals in FOH? How do you deal with it? For example, with the...

    Preamp direct to FOH, do I need a DI?

    I'm using a Peavey Alphabass tube preamp direct to FOH (ampless). Since it only has unbalanced output, should I use a passive DI to go XLR? Right now I use a 5meter 1/4" cable into line input on Mackie analogue board and I'm not hearing any noise. Di balanced XLR or stay with 1/4" unbalanced...

    FOH Sound from a rig?

    So, I'm in the minority here, but I really like my sound via FOH. I like to listen to myself with my Westone Dual driver IEM's as well. I play at church and in a cover band where we are all DI/IEM. I prefer it to an amp. We use PreSonus mixers and Yamaha powered cabs for the cover band and I...

    What to do when FOH is SO loud...

    Not sure where to post this so here it is... What do you do to get a decent bass sound onstage when the FOH is so loud you can't hear anything else? I kept turning up and adding midrange to get some sort of definition out of the amp, but nothing seemed to work. Had the amp up louder than it's...

    Can I run a GB Shuttle without cabinet?

    Hi all, I occasionally gig at a venue that doesn't allow any amps at all. Everyone plugs into the board and uses IEMs. I bought a Tech 21 Bass Fly Rig (I'd been eyeing them anyway). It sounds great most of the time, but I miss the gentle roll into saturation when I really dig in. Would it hurt...

    What is your live FOH signal chain?

    I haven't gigged in awhile and wanted to hear about what everyone is using for their live FOH signal chain mainly without an amp, but with an amp is fine also. What compressor? Preamp? DI? Pre or post eq?

    I know this is one of those topics that is covered a lot.

I understand why, but it is frustrating to set up your sound on...

    FOH Stereo vs Mono?

We're a three piece band; drums use 6 channels, bass is 1 channel, guitar is 1 channel, two vocals with Voicelive 3s is 2 channels. We have a 16 channel board/snake, so we have the capacity and effects to do stereo from every...
