    Hi Colin, thanks for the really helpful video.
    Could you just confirm, that the 2 pickup signals are mixed within the pre-amp - so only one cable from pre-amp to main amp?
    Many thanks for help

    I just picked one of these up, but it doesn't seem to be working for me. I believe it's because I have nylon strings. Do you have any recommendations on what strings would work well for this equipment and work well with slap?

    Salut et merci pour les infos mais à quoi sert les prises "POWER MONO OUT" et "FINGERBOARD OUT" ?

    • @colinthedead
      @colinthedead  8 месяцев назад +2

      Power mono out - quand tu insère un câble le system s’active , le signal qui sort va être un mix de slap et pickup du pont. Quand tu insère un deuxième câble dans fingerboard out la signal du click et pont va être séparé dans c’est deux lignes la. C’est cool pour l’enregistrement mais à tout les jours je plug mon wireless dans le power mono

    I just got the system. I can't tell all the settings from the video? I don't know which switches are pressed down and what about the gain knobs? Also i'm interested about the volumes on each pickup? Thank you so much.

    • @colinthedead
      @colinthedead  2 года назад +1

      All buttons are pushed in, gain is flat on both channels ( 6 o clock) . Volume is pretty even between the two but I play around with it from time to time.

    Hej Colin....Can you help me out please.
    My slap signal disappears while playing. It's if the input is too high and my amp (Genz Benz 1200 + HLF 610) shuts off. I think that this problem originates within the Shadow. What's your opinion?? Thanks!!

      Hey, Karel. Try reducing the gain levels on the shadow unit. Hope it helps

    I bought a used pickup and after like 3 gigs it stopped working, even when its connected to a brand new battery the tuner lights up but doesn't tune, i was wondering if you know whats wrong or some advice

    • @colinthedead
      @colinthedead  3 года назад +1

      You should contact shadow about that. Is it just the tuner that isn’t working or does it not send any signal from the outputs as well?

      Have you tried it with a 9v adapter cable instead of a battery ? Might be a short circuit in the power supply but like I said , Shadow will know better than me haha.

      You’re not wrong

      All I hear through the pick up is the finger board

    The shadow bridge pickup is fucking ass the end piece of where it connects to the pre amp it got bent and it broke i tried contacting shadow and they haven’t answered i’ve been also going on the site to see if they have a replacement part and they do but guess what it’s “coming soon “ it’s been saying that for ages idk if shadow has a number or something cuz email definitely doesn’t work
