Worship Bass Pedalboards

I mostly use this simple board—let our sound guy take care of chorus etc at the board. Sometimes I use a Tech21Bass FlyRig instead.

I'm rebuilding mine. Heres what I'm thinking:

I play both acoustic and bass. So the signal will go input>tuner>placeholder (hyper luminal compressor)> vintage microtubes > Hx effects > a/b switcher > bass to AOU (DARKGLASS B7K...no icon for aou) and acoustic to the DI.

I've ready I can alternate which output it goes from on the HXE but I want it simple. Simple AB for which output is gonna be easy.
 
Please share your thoughts on how the two compare after you've had some quality time with the Cali.

I know which of those two is my preference. :)

Cause I don't want to sabotage @ExaltBass 's test. :)

You could take a guess though...

March 1st & 6th will be the first times out with this rig. Both times though will be going into my Bergantino rig. No direct gigs on the horizon.

I use the basic "smooth tube style" setting from the manual—pretty much as suggested. Works great.

I have a bass fly rig that I use sometimes too. What settings do you use? I found myself only really using the sansamp and the tuner, so I ended up getting a VTDI to use instead.

Seems a lot of folks have had problems with sound technicians! I guess I have from time to time too. But not in the church in Montreal that I attend. We are lucky as we already have a solid sound system (upgrading to a very quality line array next month) and a top notch tech who also works sound for the events (concerts, etc) we host and for other major events in town. I often get compliments on how good the bass sounds—I always say "thanks, but it's not really due to me, it's all b/c of our sound guy, Gideon."

In all seriousness, that's really awesome! You are VERY fortunate/blessed. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to be the norm...I know it wasn't for me. :banghead:
