Creep
Milk It
Hi all! Thanks in advance to anyone who takes the time to read my post or offer advice. I'm absolutely stumped, but then again I'm not very proficient with the recording/rehearsing side of music gear.
My current situation is - was in a three piece, guitarist has other commitments, now the drummer and I (bassist) are playing as a two piece and splitting the bass sound through two amps. Bass goes in to my BOSS BCB-60, one side of the chain goes to a Electro-Harmonix Micropog octave pedal to raise the bass tone to a guitar tone, goes through a distortion pedal and out of the A output of the BCB-60 to a guitar amp to simulate a guitar tone. Other side is the normal bass tone, out of the B ouput on the BCB-60 and goes to a bass amp. This is controlled through an ABY pedal on the board, which allows me to play with both sounds, or just one or the other. This works great live for us.
What I'm trying to do now is replicate this same setup, but through a mixer alongside electric drums for a silent rehearsal. I have the drums going through the Behringer Xenyx 1202 fine, which then goes into a headphone amp so that each of us can hear the drums. But I simply cannot get the same guitar/bass split working through the headphones.
I have a DI box which I'm assuming I need somewhere. But I can't for the life of me figure out how to incorporate the pedalboard so that one signal is going from the pedalboard (the bass into the octave pedal, then going to the mixer) and likewise for the standard bass tone. I've read heaps online, but can't find any solutions. I've read I may need to utilise the 'FX SEND' on the Xenyx, but there is no return so I'm not sure how that works.
When I do get audio through the headphones, it's just a standard weak bass tone without any of the effects.
Does anyone have any ideas on how I can make this work? Apologies if this is hard to understand - please let me know if there's any more information needed as I can post them too. I'm pulling my hair out at this point trying to make this work so anyone who can offer advice I'd be hugely appreciative too.
Cheers!
