This is excellent news! I will have to get it downloaded and check it out.
On a separate note the rumor from NAMM is that Zoom is updating to allow patch editing online rather than limiting patch editing to being done exclusively on the pedal.

Hey, we all here like to help. You've asked good questions and haven't argued every step of the way. The kind'a attitude will get you lots of attention and answers.....Das Jugghead wrote: ↑Tue Feb 20, 2018 5:03 pm Two questions for the three guys I have irritated the most here (Bill, Bruce, and Tom):

Glad you are aboard - enjoy your speakers.
I agree and that was what I was trying to convey. The signal level from the B3n to the amp was (and may still be) too low.Bill Fitzmaurice wrote: ↑Fri Feb 23, 2018 9:08 am It's not that it's really 'boosting', it's just bringing the signal level up to where it needs to be. A standard bass amp's pre-amp has high enough gain to do that by itself.
Hey Bill thanks for the response. I will have to look around and see what the Carvin amp requires for signal strength. I am still trying to avoid selling the Carvin since I will never see anything close to what I paid for it (despite it having lived its entire life in my rack) and factor in that it is an orphan and the numbers just get even more depressing. If I can find a way to make the Zoom and the Carvin play together nicely then I will feel a little better about the situation. It may be that ultimately end up going with a bass amp proper and just chalk up the losses on the Carvin.Bill Fitzmaurice wrote: ↑Fri Feb 23, 2018 9:40 am There are variables, but a typical bass output at instrument level is around 100 millivolts signal strength, while a power amp may require 1.2 volts for full output. The pedal would have unity gain unless the boost is turned on, which would take the level up, but I can't say by how much.
Yes.Das Jugghead wrote: ↑Sat Feb 24, 2018 11:15 am
Here is another question: can I use a rack mount mixer? I could run the Zoom into the mixer and then the mixer into the Carvin?
What Bill's saying is true. In layman's terms, you are plugging a guitar level signal into your amp's line level input.....if you are just using a standard TS guitar cable.Das Jugghead wrote: ↑Sat Feb 24, 2018 11:15 amHey Bill thanks for the response.
