Just one correction here about Aguilar Tone Hammer. In this video you first enable right knob which is AGS and later left which is Engage, but AGS isn't working without enabling first left knob, so in this video we can't hear just preamp sound without AGS ...

The high and low pass filters are great for dialing things in depending upon the room. The EQD "Plumes" is pretty badass on bass as well. And on the envelope filter tip, the Mr. Black "Fwonkbeta" is an absolute beast!

A bit late to the party but the Big Muff is a nifty little pedal. It has a three-way switch on it ,"Bass Boost", "Normal" and "Dry" plus "Volume" "Tone" and "Sustain" knobs. On either Bass Boost or Normal the Volume knob is, well, a volume knob. But on Dry the Volume knob turns into Blend so it blends the fuzz with your clean signal. That works wonderfully for making your sound dirtier without worrying about level and it keeps better low end in my opinion.

Chorus, Envelope, octaver I have and billy sheehan's overdrive pedal (third gen) for the over the top drive (all EBS pedals). I use the built in drive/od/fuzz in the Bergantino Forte HD for the rest. Just sounds so much better than the pedals drive/od/fuzz pedals to me. Bergantino allows you to download the drive/od/fuzz compination you want and you can have 2 settings at the same time. Plus you get a very clear tone transparent tone that can be shaped extensively with the eq options. Turn on the internal drive at 0 or just above and it behaves/sounds like a tube amp. Plus I don't have to have a crazy pedal board. At 1200 class d watt it can hold its own too... Easily one of the best bass amps and cabs out there. Too bad that Sweetwater doesn't carry them (and TrickFish) :(.

I run a Darkglass Hyper Luminal Comp a B7K Ultra. My dilemma is, my backup bass is passive. So, with a preamp pedal to “boost” the signal like it’s active, where would I place it in my pedalboard chain? Maybe right after the bass or tuner? Either way, great content here!😉👍🤘

Good video but bit but I’m anxiously awaiting the follow up. I’ve basically got your setup that you were demonstrating. Pedal order and placement. Meaning where do you sergers placing the Darkglass preamp on an amp. In front? In the effects loop? I know timebased effects such as the chorus would prob be best in the loop but what about the preamp?
@sweetwater
5 жыл бұрын
Hello, Mark! Most commonly, preamp pedals are run either at the very beginning of your pedalboard signal chain or at the very end of the pedalboard, right before the input of the amp. The effects loop is best left for time-based effects, or other processing. It's relatively popular to run a DBX 160a compressor in the effects loop of a bass amp, for instance. I'll be expanding on this video sometime soon. The next thing I shoot will be about perfecting pedalboard tone, pedal order, buffers, DI's, compressor pedals, using multiple pedals together in certain orders to get desired sounds, etc. Stay tuned!

Hello, Vassilis! PTMT is abbreviation for what order most folks recommend putting your pedals. It stands for Pitch, Tone, Modulation, and Time. So you'll want to put octave or polyphonic generating pedals first, then anything that changes your tone (overdrive, EQ pedals, distortion, fuzz, etc.), then modulation type effects (chorus, flanger, phaser), and last time based effects like reverb and delay. There are no set rules about what order to put pedals in, so if you find a combination of effects that you like, don't worry about it breaking any rules. I always say that anything musical can't be wrong if it sounds good. Thanks for the interest! Spunde, Sweetwater Sales Engineer, (800) 222-4700 ext. 1732, Spunde@Sweetwater.com

@sweetwater
5 жыл бұрын
Preamp pedals are great for sculpting tone, and getting higher output with passive basses. Also, the vast majority of them will have a balanced DI output for getting your sound into the front of house. They're not always 100% necessary if you already like your tone (I have the all tube Mesa Prodigy Four:88 head that I always run straight into), but they can help in a lot of situations. It's like having all of your tone and sound in one box, so no matter what bass you plug in, or amp, you will still have your sound quickly and easily. Thanks for the interest!

I am a fledgling bassist who is 100% self-taught, I can play (just about) the likes of TOOL and RatM and RHCP (non-slap songs), but I barely understand the fringe basics of how EQ balance and distortion works, and have never owned a pedal before. So, it is all well and good to know names of pedals and what ones to get first, but it does not really tell me anything about them. What do they do? How do they do it? Why do I want to start with one kind of pedal and not another? It's like asking a parent for help on your math homework, and they just tell you the answer. That doesn't help me to understand it, you know?

Honestly: just get out there try diffrent stuff. Doesn't matter if you just play around in a software with recorded tracks or with a multieffect. The moment you actually change the parameters/knobs you will get a feel for what they do and what you like. Concerning the thing with what the pedals actual do: depending on how nerdy you want to get there's pretty mich endless stuff to learn. I started getting interested in effects some years ago and I still learn new stuff. Definetly check out the jhs-channel, that pedal show and cs guitars. For me, the best starting point was getting a multi-fx from zoom, the b3. Because you get so much stuff abd its easy to change the order of effects and learn how they interact together. That way I could figure out what I wanted and how "complicated"(one knob vs. A LOT of knobs) I wanted things to get. Sorry, that comment got kinda out of hand. Have a good one!

I admit I don't see the need for a preamp. You've got plenty of EQ options on your bass and amp. And as for a DI box, audio interfaces pretty much replace those for home recording. And live, any venue with front of house support is also going to have their DI boxes. I think a compressor is more useful. And maybe a high pass filter to cut the mud out of the bottom of your tone.

I beg to differ. You can't always count on venues to have good quality DI boxes. If you care about your tone, a good DI box is a sound investment. Also, you always know what you're getting as far as what the FOH guy is gonna get. As far as studio use goes, DI's allow you to split your signal, which is crucial when recording guitars through an amp (having both an amped track and a dry track in case something goes wrong and you need to re-amp). I haven't seen that feature on many audio interfaces other than the Apogee Ensemble, and that's a 2000$ piece of gear.

Most venues can afford a Sansamp at a minimum. There's nothing wrong with that as a DI. But they probably have something far better than that (i.e. - something better than the average person can afford). They've already shelled out the money for a mixing board and PA, after all. And the front of house guy may not be world class, but he probably knows what he's doing better than you do. Buy one if you want. I've just never had a need for one.

The SansAmp Bass Driver can also get you a pretty good distortion/OD if you crank the gain. Granted, it's not separate from the rest of the pedal. I've used it as such though, and if you don't need it as an actual preamp, it does a really nice job. Both of mine are older models from around 2001 without those extra switches, so YMMV.
