Two Notes Le Bass Players Club

I've found that blending in some slightly overdriven mids from channel B alleviated my fears of not getting the tone I wanted out of channel A.

Just got my Le Bass and the white noise is horrible. Humming is constant and there even when I am using it with only headphones. Really upset that a pedal at this pricepoint would sound like it had a bee's nest in it. Sending it back tomorrow and getting a darkglass

Sounds like yours (or your powersupply) has a issue then, mines dead quiet.

+1 getbthe power supply right both in voltage and mA's with an isolated source and it's fine (unless it's a faulty unit)
You will still getbnoise with DG pedals or anything with an overdriven signal. I can compare because I have a few DG pedals, a SG amp and the Le Bass

 

[Socobass]

No noise with mine

 

[rodv66]

The buzz is really bad on b channel and even there when I just used the headphones on it. Was reading that it could be the power supply.

Is it a DI to front of house or is there further EQ with an amp?

The A channel on its own is just lovely and gives a fantastic sound, don't worry about the lack of mid, just worry about how fat and warm your sound could sound, or how dirty it can get

DI to FOH only.

 

[joelamosobadiah]

Yes but it sounds better IMO mixed in with the extra bottom from channel A in Cold Fusion mode.

That's the sound I've heard from the samples that I liked the most. Cold fusion with either a little bit of that broken up sound from Channel B dialed in or Channel B with a little bit of the low end from channel A.

Only other complaint I've seen from some people is the cab sim is too dark for their taste, but personally I haven't heard that from the sound clips I've heard and I tend to like a pretty dark full bass sound anyway.

 

[Socobass]

As my live cabinets are full-range, flat-response (FRFR) I use the Torpedo CAB in line as the last effect in my chain. Going this route usually ensures that my on stage tone is the same as FOH.

Cheers!

Thanks for the info Charlie

Sweetwater is sending me a new unit. They think the charger might be a dud.

I completely agree. On a side note, I keep getting this weird pulsating ringing tone from my amp, haven't tried it on another one yet. Any one else had that problem? No hiss or buzz, and I can't hear it on my headphones.

 

[RabbidX]

Oh yah, heres the twonotes on my board.

I've heard that changing it to a more stable power supply, even running it on 9 volts. Tell me if it works...

Sweetwater is sending me new unit. I didn't know you could run on 9v. I tried a replacement charger from best buy but didn't work. Unit didn't power up at all.

 

[Bellbass]

I did run it on 9 volts for a while but I'm not sure TwoNotes would agree it's the best thing to do...

 

[kasbrey]

Unfortunately my Le Bass has developed a fault after 10 months (luckily within warranty). When either switch is depressed I just get a low volume distorted signal. I tried a different valve and power supply but no good.
It's going back tomorrow.....

Just wanted to share / update y'all on my tube experience. So I've had a Ruby 12AT7C in my LeBass since last summer. Today it fizzled out and died. Started to get some weird distortion and volume pumping. Ruled out other variables so I put in a Ruby 12AX7AC5.

Still loving' LeBass. I'm not a big tube person so I don't know how long they should last but I figured longer than that... Probably has 200-400 hours on it.

 

[scubaduba]

Is the DI output of your le bass effected by volume adjustments? Or is the DI just sent as one flat volume?

The former. It mirrors what you do with all knobs and optionally applies a cab sim.

 

[scubaduba]

But do the volume knobs affect the output volume of the DI?
