  • Are you selling the sadowsky belt type preamp. Let me know. I'll buy it

  • Very colorful ("dry"..."girthy"..."Marcus Miller the flagship"..."beefy"...etc.) use of language and clarifying presentation.

    Would you block out what you had in your instrument drive train when the setup was "dry" i.e. [bass] -> [?] -> [?] -> [?preamp] -> [power amp] -> ... -> [audio input to the camera]?

    Your signal sounds great from the get go!

    Thanks.

  • Thanks so much for your response and the information. I'll try out those settings. One more question: how do you adjust your amp? Do you set it flat or EQ it a bit? (FYI: I'm using a Genz Benz Shuttle 9.0)

  • Nice playing and great sound coming out f that SX !!! I also use the Sadowsky outboard pre amp with the VT bass but I'm have trouble getting them to "play nice" with each other. Would you be so kind as to tell me how do you use them together? From your bass to which unit do you plug into and then from which to the amp. Finally, what are your settings on the Sad and VT? Thanks in advance for your help; I've been struggling with this!

  • @bassnyc1 I hit the Sadowsky right out of the bass, and typically set it with volume up full, bass anywhere from 10:30 to noon, treble at noon. From there I adjust the tone control on the bass for more or less treble/brightness. My basic setup on the VT Bass is intended to get it as 'flat' as possible but still with the tube coloration. Those settings generally are volume around noon-1:00, bass 12:00, treble 12:00, character 12:00, mid 12:00, and drive at about 9:00.

  • That's actually the original VT. I'm not keen on the 'deluxe' version that is programmable. I like the stompbox-style better, but according to reviews the sound/character of the unit has not changed.

  • That´s the new Tech 21 VT Bass?

  • Thanks for this one. Very informative.
