What does your home practice setup look like?

I'm guessing this was also your live rig back then as well? And, I mean all of it.

The vox amp was crap … I used the fender cabs for pa and the Sunn 4x12 and Sunn2000s head was the bass rig.

Hey Rollie,

I noticed something on you EQ. I see you are using the Enhance. As most of us Eden guys know, boosts the low end, scoops the low mid, and boost the high frequencies. Pretty much the Enhance is for playing at very low volumes, kind of like the old loudness buttons on car cassette players and some stereo amps back a few decades.

That’s ok for bedroom playing, or otherwise playing by yourself, but playing live you need those low mids to hear what you are playing over the other players. Most experienced Eden players don’t use enhance live. Check it out, and if I’m full of crap, let me know! Have a good one.

i've been using it at home. i've been playing for over 40 years. i think i might learnt how to set my amp up by now

So does the ric have active inside or is there a preamp out of the picture? This is an active studio monitor.. A pre sonus? I've used my M-Audio BX5A with my UBass in a pinch having an acoustic jam and needing to level up some

The Fender is active and it works well for practice... I'm in a condo and cant play loud. I don't use the Ric with that speaker.

A Fodera Private Practice Amp an a pair of Fostex T50RP's

450+ watts with the GK/Ampeg 4x10 blh with a Carvin PB150 15" Combo, BOTH rigs connected together through a Bass+ Preamp....i get some really gnarly sound when both amps turned on

Here is my home practice space.

Bergantino HD112, Genz Benz Shuttle 9.0, Seiko chromatic tuner..

And a big poster of JJ scowling his disdain at every note I play....

I would be interested to see how you all practice at home. I use my Vox bass headphone amp with my trusty iPod Classic and AT headphones. What does your setup look like?View attachment 3475331

In our current house, I have a nice walk-in cedar closet - about 6x8.
Mostly storage, but also a work space. Up high shelf (not pictured) has all the stuff like tripod stands, boxes, ect. Middle shelf stuff I use more, and I converted the lowest shelf to a standing height work top.

Laptop to a small mixer on the desk to a powered speaker down below. Plenty of room to write charts or use as a work bench. Right now I have the BB800 on a 210 cab. Might have different amps set up, depending on what is in use for gigging, or what amp I want to play around with. Doesn't really matter much, since the space is tiny and volume limited. Have even plugged the bass into the mixer and powered speaker. Fine for learning songs or whatever.

My Carl Thompson (#4/75) plugged into my 1974 B 15N (JBL K230).

At home and temporarily exiled to the living quarters until the end of the month...unless a band has a vacancy and a rehearsal space...anyone?

What SS bass is that? Looks sick!

 

[WoodyH]

Same as what I use for most everything minus the headphones.
Schecter Diamond P-Plus, TC Electronic BG-250, Foot-Switch for the 2 TonePrint slots, and Bose QC 35 into the headphone out.

Since my wife left this is my living room.

Replace your wife with bass stuff. Cool.

For solo practice, I run my Jazz bass > Mackie Onyx Blackjack > GarageBand.

Before the Mackie, I used a Behringer 8 channel EuroRack mixer > GarageBand. It was pretty great, even without using any of the amp simulators. I'm going for a nice thumpy flatwound sound, and I'm happy with my tone.

If I can sound good running direct into a Behringer mixer, then I have no worries about whatever else I plug into out there in the wild.

I had a cedar closet space like that as a teen. It was an amazing place to shut out the world and get some thinking and writing done.

Also,

MOST. AROMATIC, PRACTICE. SPACE. EVER.

Thx! That’s an old aluminum neck Kramer, 250b model from 1977. It looks shorter than it is...33” scale. But HEAVY. Sounds like a P with a bit of Gibson thrown in.

I´m have only had one gig with a band, who I just joined. More gigs booked. Only 6 years since i started playing.
I use the same stuff i gig with.
A (Fender) squire vintige modified precission bass. On gig I use a EBS Reidmar 750 and two EBS classicline 112 who are lined with xlr to the PA to get a litte support.
When we practise I use only one cab and line with xlr.

At home I use the same stuff, Reidmar 750 and one EBS classicline 112.
