    Whats a Good Stacked Single Coil PU??

    Ever heard of Bill Lawrence noisefree pickups? They are a "hybrid" stacked single coil type, & look traditional (6 poles.) He just came out with a more aggressive sounding bridge model called the L-290. http://www.billlawrence.com/Pages/Pickup_Window/280.htm I have the L-280 set in my Am...

    Help choosing a bass for recording

    Thanks mcmd, I think the bass came out pretty well for my first "real" try with my current setup. I have sloppy technique so I suffer from fret pop/buzz. I tried to filter them out a little but you can still hear them, though they are not too bad. Zone bass info...

    Help choosing a bass for recording

    I've got a '98 MIM Fender P-bass that I use with the SansAmp Bass DI AND a J-Station. Check out my mp3 to hear how it turned out. This is my first attempt at recording the bass direct with these two units (I used both units togeather because I couldn't get the tone I wanted out of just one or...

    Fender Cyber Twin Amp

    I've had my C-T since Feb. I'm still extremely happy with it. Your right about the "massive distortions", the tone is there but the crunch isn't. So I put a S.D. Lil 59'er in my strat and now it has nice crunch on the "heavier" presets. I'm mainly a blues/rock player so the amp is perfect...

    dabluesman's Cyber-Twin mp3 w/recording specs

    Thanks for the opinions! That'll give me something to think about when I work on the next one. I really like the guitar tone I got from the Cyber-Twin too, maybe next time I'll try a "tweed" preset. Thanks guys!

    Using J-Station With Bass?

    Remember though, I didn't record the J-Station alone. I ran the SansAmp Bass DI before it. That enabled me to EQ it more than you can with the J-Station alone and it added the tube "roundness" that you can hear. This is also my first attempt to record with the SansAmp and the J-Station...

    Using J-Station With Bass?

    Ok, I did it. I ran the bass to the SansAmp Bass DI, then I ran that to the J-Station and out the J-Station's two 1/4th jacks to my soundcard. Click the link for all the specs and the mp3. https://homerecording.com/bbs/showthread.php?s=&threadid=30551

    Using J-Station With Bass?

    I'm also mainly a guitar player that records my own bass for backing tracks. I got the J-Station just for bass recording (I use a Cyber-Twin for guitar..) I also have a SansAmp Bass DI which I wouldn't call a "modeling" box or whatever. For me the SansAmp just adds tube tone and feel to a...

    Gear Snob Alert! You Want Good Tone???

    So defensive!?! If it was directed solely at you, I would of said hey, ametth, your a friggin idiot. But your not the only one who feels the way you do towards this technology, so the statement was directed to all of those who feel that way. Perhaps idiot was the wrong term to use in this...

    Gear Snob Alert! You Want Good Tone???

    Bruce, your a reasonable guy, have you had the chance to try a Cyber-Twin out in your studio yet? I've had mine since Feb. and along with some of the guys at the FDP have come up with real sweet presets that we share amongst our selves. You really have to play and tweak this thing yourself for...

    Bass recording

    With the J-Station you have to tweak and resave the presets. Even the manual tells you that. I've gotten some good guitar amp tones out of it and the SVT model can be tweaked to a very convincing tone. It is just the matter of dialing them in.

    Bass recording

    There are the POD's and the V-Amp, but the J-Station has electric guitar, acoustic guitar and bass guitar amp models. It is the only one that I know of that does guitar and bass. The quality is pretty good too, I was expecting much less..

    Bass recording

    For $150, you cant go wrong with the J-Station. It does guitar as well as bass too and the SVT model is very nice! I tried everything to get my bass recorded direct. I got pretty close with a SansAmp Bass DI to my Hartke bass amp through the headphone jack to the sound card. But it had no...

    Compressor on bass

    I've got a J-Station coming in that I plan on using pretty much just for my Fender P-bass. It has a compressor with Threshold (-50dB to 0dB), Ratio (1.1:1, 1.2:1, 1.5:1, and 2:1 to 10:1 and an inifity:1), Gain (0dB to 30dB), and Frequency (50Hz to 800Hz then 1kHz to 3.15kHz to "full range")...
