No aux in. It would be a really cool additional feature, but in my case I run a wired in-ear setup and already have a Rolls PM50s under my board that I use to combine my bass and my iPhone or tablet for practicing with headphones.

No. Which would be fantastic. Having two little ones I love to practice at night after they are asleep. It would be nice to be able to grab my bass, iPhone, and Le bass and just go to town. It's my only gripe about the pre-amp thus far. But bottom line is I guess it's not that big of a deal.
Denny that's a great idea. How do you have it in your chain?
Typically for a show it's not in the pedalboard chain at all. There is an XLR Pass through and a 1/4" in, and each of the volumes are controlled independently. I run an XLR from my mic to the Rolls and then another XLR out to the mixer to carry my vocal input. An aux send brings my in-ear mix back to the 1/4" input, so I can mix my vocals independent of the overall mix right at the Rolls. I have a special cable that I had made for me that carries both my instrument line and my headphone cable, so there's essentially only one snaked line going from my bass to the pedalboard.
At home for practicing I just run a 1/4" cable from the end of my pedal chain into the 1/4" input on the Rolls and then purchased an 1/8" to XLR cable on Amazon to get the signal from my iPhone or my tablet to the other channel on the Rolls.
If this is of interest to anyone I'd be happy to start a new thread and post some pics and links. It started out as a quiet way to practice in my apartment, then the band decided to go to in-ears I was basically set up, just needed to buy some better ear buds.

I would love to see this. The headphone/aux setup is an amazing feature on the Enabler and I'm curious what the approach looks like on the Le Bass.

I'll see if I can get a quick video together tonight and show how I set up my practice rig. Two Notes kind of missed the boat by not putting an aux in on the Le Bass, but it has so many connections on either side that I'm not sure where they would have put it!
I looked at the CS7 specs and I just don't get it. I thought both Le Bass and CAB needed 500 Ma at 12 volts...
As directly per Truetone Support, the CS7 is able to supply as much current as necessary to all pedals just as long as the total current drawn does not exceed the cumulative total of all outlets.
The seven CS7 outlets provide a total 1900mA (which is 100mA (x1) + 200mA (x4) + 500mA (x2))
The Le Bass requires 500mA, leaving 1400mA for other pedals.
Cheers!
^ Indeed, and as I'm not sure the other competing power supplies I've been looking at that can do 9/12/18v (Voodoo ISO-5 and T-Rex Chameleon) work the same way, I reckon a CS7/CS12 will be coming my way soon.

So you can use both the CAB and LeBass (12 volts 500Ma each) and still have 900 Ma left? I thought that those 500Ma were 9 volts only...
The CS7 has four switchable 9V/12V outlets, 2 fixed 9V outlets, and 1 fixed 18V outlet.
I connect Le Bass to one of the above switchable outlets set to 12V, connect Torpedo CAB to another switchable outlet set to 12V, and for my Zoom MS-60B, I chose an unused fixed 9V outlet. This presents a load of approximately 1300mA on my CS7 and I then have 600mA left to use in the future at either 9V/12V/18V depending on the unused outlet(s) I then tap.
Picture below.
How many are finding the cab simulator just too dark? How many are enabling it for FOH? I'm considering not using the cab sim anymore.
I'm pretty sure that the cab simulation is not going to make it into my live setup. I play a Stingray 5 and I like my mids and highs.
Yeah I like my mids and highs too. Sometimes listening through earphones is deceiving of live tone though. Just wondering how dark I really sound FOH? Guess I'm going to have to try and get a recording soon.
With me being a full-time plectrumist, I find the built-in cab sim nearly-perfect with a Precision and so bright with a Jazz that I usually require tone knob relief.
I would highly-recommend a test drive with studio monitors or similar from the XLR out over the use of the 1/8" headphone out and/or headphones.
Cheers!
Sure a bit redundant, but lots of good Le Bass talk found in this earlier thread.
