Can I use this?

[SweMan574]

First off all, I'm new to bass. But can I use this stuff in this way?

Bass > Harley Benton HB-40B > Harley Benton BDI-2000 > Harley Benton BB115T

Shure SM58 > Behringer Xenyx Q802USB > Harley Benton HB-40B > Harley Benton BDI-2000 > Harley Benton BB115T

Thank You!

Edit: Or do I HAVE to use a head too? Or can I skip the head to save money?

Speaker cabs have to have an amplifier to drive them. You can run your bass to pedals like that BDI-2000 and then to a combo (amp head and speaker cab in one) like that HB-40B. That brand is not available on this side of the pond so it is easier if you ask about the product type instead of model numbers.
You can't save money by skipping an amplifier head unless you don't want to be heard .

Thanks but please can you write like this:
Bass > Preamp > Amp > Cab > or whatever and please do
Mic > Mixer > Preamp > Amp > Cab or whatever

Thanks, but what about the cabs? Will I do Amp > Head > Cab?

No. amp is always the last thing before the cab.

You're planning on running both your bass and your Behringer mixer into your bass amp, then a 115 cab at the same time?

Also, if the HB "BDI" is a DI box, you don't need to run a mixer into the DI before amplifying.

Just to clarify...

The HB-40B is a 40w combo (so it is a head and a cab in one box)
The BDI-2000 is an effects and DI pedal (with an XLR out and a Paralell out)
The BB115T is a cab

So, you can't get any sound out of the BB115T without another amplifier (head).

You can go:
Bass to BDDI-2000,
Then the XLR from the BDDI-2000 to the Xenyx, also the SM58 to the Xenyx
From the Xenyx via USB to you computer.
From the Paralell out on the BDDI-2000 to the HB-40B

The HB-40B also has another line in, so you could go from the Xenyx to the HB-40B, but only in mono, and I can´t say how good this would sound (I have a HB-20B and it's not great).

To be able to get any sound out of the BB115T you will need another amplifier, either a power amp or a bass head. Then you have more options, but I wouldn't spend too much time trying to get the BB115T and the HB-40B working at the same time, as the results will no be anything special.

If you want any more info on Harley Benton stuff, check out the Harley Benton Club: http://www.talkbass.com/threads/i-own-a-harley-benton-club.1123735/ it is more about basses, but a lot of Harley Benton stuff is owned there, so we will probably be able to help.

Just a note: I think the OP is having to use a translation program. I don't know what the native language is.

That is quite possible, but this is not the usual random translation that comes from Google, it actually makes more sense than a lot of the threads we have seen lately

THAT was my clue

[SweMan574]

No I'm not using any translate stuff. My English is bad, that's what it is. Thanks for all the replies! The Behringer Mixer is only for the Shure SM58, Because I must use a mixer if I'm going to use a Shure SM58? Or how do I even get sound from the mic without a mixer?

 

[B-string]

What do you need the SM58 for? Are you doing a solo (single) with just bass and vocals?

 

[SweMan574]

No, I'm making a band and I play bass and sing.

 

[JACink]

In that case, you will need some kind of PA to connect the mixer too, so you can hear the voice.

SM58> Behringer Xenyx Q802USB> TWO of these Invalid Link Removed

 

[SweMan574]

Ah, now I see. I thought I could connect the SM58 to a bass amp in some way. Thanks! But can I use two of these instead? Invalid Link Removed

 

[JACink]

Yes you could use two of those.

If you are only running vocals through them they should be fine (don't expect any bass out of them, but just for vocals you don't need bass). They are not very loud, but just for rehearsing, and using with the HB40B for your bass, they will get you going.

 

[SweMan574]

OK thanks! But, what stuff should I get if I want it to be loud but not too expensive?

 

[JACink]

Where are you from? Depending on your location you may be better looking at used.

Seeing that you are mainly referring to Thomann, I guess you are in Europe, so maybe the used selection is not that great (again, it depends on your country).

I have various PA systems, some of which are T.Box, and to be truthful they are not bad. Obviously they are not in the league of expensive systems, but they are very tough, and will take a lot of abuse.

Have you already purchased the stuff you mentioned in your first post? And also, what is your budget?

With this information, it will be easier to guide you.
