Then, I was having some sound issues with one of my basses. Be it the bass itself or the location of the speaker or Tzeench toying with my destiny, whatever the root cause I eventually created my own presets for each of my guitars to correct the issue while making each one sound as good as I can make it sound on my setup in my space. Today I went through all 250 presets and was very impressed. They sounded great and spanned lots of sounds and genres and most were very usable. It's fairly intuitive and if I have one complaint it's that the manual is pretty sparse and basic but has all the information you absolutely need. My first impression is that there are tons of great emulations and a huge variety of ways to run it. I'd be surprised if you couldn't find many sounds you like and cover anything you would want. Si le traitement du signal en interne est en 32bits, la conversion A/N et N/A se fait en 24bits, j'avais donc un léger doute en ce qui concerne la dynamique.. Mon pédalier était bancal, j'ai mis une petite semelle autocollante de 1 mm sur le patin qui posait problème et maintenant c'est parfait.

Nicht alle Effekte haben eine Paralleloption, was vermutlich bei Kompressoren ganz gut gewesen wäre. The compressors are...odd. I debated mentioning it because I can't really articulate what I don't like about them. I'm just not fond of them.I also wasn't exactly sure how the preamp models should be used. It seemed strange to me to put a preamp in front of an amp/cab sim, but some of the presets definitely did that, and I mean there's really no "rules." If it sounds good, it sounds good. I might just be too mired in old analog thinking of "Bass into amp/cab." I mean who knows, maybe a preamp into an amp/cab and running one of the DI models might produce something cool. I haven't tried yet. The presets also serve as a great way to learn the unit by analyzing them and seeing what's running verses what you're hearing. I remember one preset that was running the pitch shifter module but not actually doing any pitch shifting, but the unit itself definitely drastically changed the tone just being on. Another one used that same unit with a pitch shift of 1 cent to get a pretty good "With A Little Help From My Friends" sound. I never would have thought to use it in those ways. The sounds are good. The pedal sims work exactly like you'd expect them to work and they sound fantastic. If your pedal chain has more than three options and you will be activating and deactivating various pedals throughout the performance, I can see it being a pain. Easier to swap between presets than to activate and deactivate stuff. Haven't really run into that myself but as I've been messing around it's been on my mind. The expression pedal, which is used for volume pedal and wah operations, is not equipped. You’ll need to connect a separately sold pedal. Considering that few players use it, and to reduce costs and maintain a compact size, it’s understandable. Comparison with B6 Specification

The bypass switch is great for when I need to tweak the raw sound coming out of the bass or when I want to just use the dedicated compressor pedal. The built in tuner is ok but the screen doesn’t feel responsive enough for me. I much prefer my polytune for that side of things. The sounds are good. The pedal sims work exactly like you’d expect them to work and they sound fantastic. The pedal measures 146 x 249 x 72 mm (depth x width x height), and weighs 906g. Pricing & Availability I wanted to get started with a pedal board. I watched all kinds of YouTube videos and blog posts about which pedals to get first and what pedals EVERY BASS PLAYER NEEDS to the point that I had overloaded myself with information and wound up just buying a tuning pedal and later a compressor pedal.

Captivating Sounds — Exclusively for Bass

Exemple, je possède une pédale préamp MXR BASS DI + , il y a une émulation de celle-ci dans le B2 Four ; et bien on reconnaît le son ! Due to the adoption of multi-layer IR, it’s not possible to load external IRs. This might be a downside for those who have favorite IRs they’re accustomed to using. No Expression Pedal Included The built in tuner is ok but the screen doesn't feel responsive enough for me. I much prefer my Polytune for that side of things.

It has a balanced XLR output and a ground lift switch on the rear panel, so connectivity is also good. Plus, an Aux in for jamming along to external sources and USB for updates and communication with the Guitar Lab software and it will act as a 2 in/2 out interface to your DAW. Finally, there is an expression pedal connection as well, so you can expand the control option somewhat. Official Specifications There's many varieties of all the different kinds of FX, plus a great selection of preamps, amp/cab emulations, and a dedicated switch that steps through 6 different modeled DI boxes, 3 tube varieties and 3 SS versions. Or you can just turn it off, which I do since I run amp/cab sims so it seems weird to put a modeled DI after an amp/cab sim.

Die Bedienung mit der App ist definitiv eine Erleichterung, man muss aber genau drauf achten, dass man das richtige Kabel+ Adapter hat! Lightning auf USB-C reicht nicht! Je n'ai pas vraiment écouté les 250 patches d'usine, car ce qui m'intéresse c'est créer mes propres patches pour les répétitions, et avoir une bonne homogénéité sonore entre mes presets. When it finally showed up, I was completely overwhelmed by it. The documentation was extensive, the factory presets were vastly numerous and I still found myself not really knowing where to start. Considering the maximum number of simultaneous effects and the number of footswitches, if you often combine multiple effects or switch tones during a song, B6 would be a better choice. Conclusion B2 FOUR is recommended for first-time bass effect users or as a secondary unit.
