Thanks for watching. I’m glad it helped.

Thanks for watching and the comment. Yes, I can see how chording could be challenging. The main project I use this bass on requires minimal chording so I never really had the issue. I hope you enjoy the bass as much as I do. It is really great for the price.

Like when I feel I completely trainwreck a gig and everyone says it sounded awesome🤣. We are way too hard on ourselves.

The master volume on the back of the unit does not affect the xlr output.

@@terrymcgaha3560 but it doesn´t affect the Aux in either right?

@@diegoalejo15it will affect the aux in. In the signal chain, the aux in and the 1/4” output are the only 2 things after the master volume. Everything else is before it.

@@terrymcgaha3560 sorry but I think this is incorrect, the aux in is after the master volume but it´s an IN connection so it shouldn´t be affected by the master. I have a B3n and and though I could not find the signal chain graph when I connect something to aux in it´s not affected by master vol. Besides, aux in goes to both 1/4 outs in B3n which sucks. I guess (I wish) that in B6 it does not go through xlr out.

It definitely has its own unique sound. I much rather myself use it strictly for ampless situations. I still like my tried and trued bass>tuner>compressor>amp setup.

Yes, there is always a work around!!!!!

Yes, the choice of bass on the video was out of pure laziness. I didn’t feel like going to the other room🤣. My Jazz bass strung with flats is my preferred bass while playing that song. And as far as the slight slap, I couldn’t agree more.

Please do!!!! The whole reason I do this is to make the world of bass better. Thank you for watching and I’m glad you enjoyed.

I’ve considered running the MX5 through the effects loop on my B6 for just that reason. Set up a good amp tone with some compression and eq, then loop out to the mx5 for any and all effects. Just never really sat down and tried it.

Just to monitor yourself. The XLR will go to FOH

Thanks for watching. I’m glad you enjoyed the info.

I’m still torn on wanting to move it around for live use. I have the gator road case so I’m not worried about damaging it, just for ease of moving stuff around. I use an XR18 most of the time for live, but sometimes I need the extra inputs. I need endless funds to supply my habit!!!

Since that volume knob only controls the 1/4” output, I don’t use it that much since I usually use the xlr. But when I do use it to an amp I keep it in the middle. If I plug headphones into the unit I would use it then as well.

That stuff doesn’t bother me at all. I actually enjoy that I can bring someone to that. 🤣 It is a great bass. Is it a one stop shop? No. I have guitars and basses from a few hundred dollars up to several thousand, and one thing I’ve learned is fit and finish aside, a good playing instrument is a good playing instrument.

Maybe a longer video explaining how $100 pawn shop junk can out perform instruments that cost 10 times as much. Thanks for the idea!!!

@terrymcgaha3560 maybe you're tone deaf

​@@terrymcgaha3560have you ever heard a man driving a Lamborghini say he had a pinto at home that was just as nice !!!! Get real with yourself dingus

Tone deafness!!!! Another great idea. Thanks again for watching!!!

Hells yea!!!

Any input can be routed to any track, or multiple tracks if you like.

Thank you for watching

Yes it is. I’ve used it in that manner before with no issues.

@@terrymcgaha3560 So this will eliminate the need for a loop patch?

@@LeoGarciaBassyes. The loop patch would need to be used only if you were trying to send a completely different signal to foh and amp.

I would choose the zoom over the Headrush. 1. XLR out with 4 DI options 2. It is strictly bass amps and effects 3. The dual input is nice 4. Live, it’s simpler to use

@@terrymcgaha3560 thanks!

I have not used one. I don’t really like tinkering while I play so I’m kind of a set it and forget - play around at home type when it comes to the B6. I would like to see what one can do with it one day though.

I was considering going that route. As far as the computer goes, it’s fully upgraded to the max ram for the chipset, and while it was apart I upgraded the SSD and fans. It’s actually, and surprisingly, a very fast and capable computer besides the OS. Studio One 6 runs great on it and paired with a studiolive 32SX, it far outperforms my needs. Thanks for the suggestion.

I’ve only messed with the MX5. I’m sure the Prime has even more to offer than the MX5 though. If it’s more guitar than bass offerings, I’m not sure.

Atleased someone sees it🤣

There is nothing worse than to deal with unprepared bandmates. I realize sometimes, everyone forgets something or something fails. But come on people!!!!

NEVER!!!!!!🤣 But yes, time to switch my setup to my other computer. Maybe…….

I’ll make the next video playing through the MX5.

Absolutely. That is how I use it most of the time.

@@terrymcgaha3560thank You very much

The bass signal should not affect anything. You might have to adjust your input settings a little bit it will not harm the unit.

Alright. Thank You very much

It’s a pedaltrain but I can’t remember the exact model. There is only 1 larger though.

@@terrymcgaha3560 thank you!

The difference in signal, if any, should not be noticed at all from what I see in the wiring schematic. I doubt any firmware could fix this problem because of how the unit is wired, unless it’s controlled by the processor itself. Maybe someone who has taken it apart and dealt with the chips could chime in, but from how it reads, it is what it is. Hopefully on the next large footprint unit they develop keeps this in mind.

Personal preference. Though for some connections, adapters might be ok, some have signal loss.

@@terrymcgaha3560 I use a standard trs-xlr cable, no adapters at all.

It does sound really good. All the video sound is plugging the B6 into a H4n, then into an iPhone

Funny cause I have one and never thought to use it.

I wish I had more time!!!!

Thanks for supplying great parts!!!!

Yes, to me, the second of both sound better as well.

Yes, I agree. I do not usually play with synths. I’m sure with lots of tinkering, one could get the desired tone.

@@terrymcgaha3560 Yes, sorry, no bad meaning from my side. You can watch you tube, just search for Zoom B6 Synth. You will see there a few people get very good sounds out of it...

Thank you. There will be more coming. My summer run of gigs is almost done, then back to studio to practice and play with my toys!!!

@@terrymcgaha3560 I'm gigging every weekend. No end in sight. I appreciate your videos because I don't have time.

Thank you. I try to keep it simple, Atleased in my mind!!!!

Thanks so much for watching and the kind words

If it’s worth having, it’s worth modding!!!!🤣

I made it. I’m a machinist by trade so everything to make it is easily accessible to me.

There was a few routes I tried to get close. It’s amazing how many methods can be used to get the same tone. I ended up settling for the simplest.

I really don’t have timing issues at all. Most projects I play with are not many channels, and most of my recording is done on other devises and uploaded to S1. That could be why I haven’t run into any issues.

The tascam does not work as an interface. It is a stand alone unit that records to an SD card. You can however record to the unit, and transfer the tracks into your DAW. But not in real time as 32 individual tracks.

@@terrymcgaha3560 Thank you so much for the informative reply. I thought I could use it as a midi controller.

I’ll be traveling for some gigs this weekend. But after I get home next week I’ll start to work on a patch and throw a video out for it. Hopefully next weekend I’ll get a video out. I don’t foresee an issue getting a tone close to his.

@@terrymcgaha3560 You are AWESOME!!! Thank you so much!!
