Running MB into MB and EBS into EBS.

Dude, you live in Italy...it would be a sin if you didn't have a Markbass.



I'd be curious as to how much that stuff goes for in Italy.

 

[saxnbass]

HAHA. Yeah. The head and cab cost me $1340 total. (950Euro)

 

[mynan]

Actually, that's about the same as they go for here in the states...

Unfortunately that's MUCH cheaper than in the UK I hate living here!!! I'd have to pay easily $1800-2000 for that rig!

 

[saxnbass]

Yep Azzy, I know. The EBS is worth so much in the UK. I think I'm gonna buy a bunch of gear before I go over and then sell it all over there and make a nice little profit.

Hey, you stole my amp!!!

I'm gonna have to try that setting.

 

[MingusBASS]

Just make sure you keep the "Suck" knob at 0.

That's not my setting Eric, that's the way it was when I got it out of the box, I keep everything flat, VPE off, and VPF Almost all the way!

The VPF?

huh?

VPF almost all the way up? Geez that's a mid cut. Sounds good alone, but no good in a band setting; won't cut through. I'm still gonna have to try out the setting in that picture though.

I like the VPF, It sounds like an old svt

 

[saxnbass]

The VPF does sound good, no doubt. But mids are what let you cut through in a band setting, or so the majority of people say.

I use the '' Volume '' knob to let me cut through in a band setting.

There's an old far side cartoon with the caption: "On his last day working as the band's sound technician, Randy turned the SUCK knob up to 10." So you were not that far off.

and turn the "Rock" knob to 11!!!

Same here...but I run the VPF at about 2 o'clock and the VLE at about 10 o'clock (the combos don't have an attenuator for the tweeter, so I have to turn the VLE up a bit to reduce the tweeter hiss).

 

[saxnbass]

Tried out this setting. It's a nice mellow bassy sound.

How does the EBS amp compare with the Mark Bass running into the 4x10?
