Members Nazman06 Posted January 6, 2006 Members Posted January 6, 2006 I have been running direct from the pa to my bass head..But I was thinking of trying mic'd.I have a BP 200 pedal that I use..whats the point if I am running direct?.most of the sounds I get from it dont make it out to the audience anyway..How do ya'll do it?
Members ToeJamFootball Posted January 6, 2006 Members Posted January 6, 2006 get a DI pedal and run from your DI pedal to the PA ToeJam
Members bassesofalessergod Posted January 6, 2006 Members Posted January 6, 2006 call me old fashioned, but I like to be Mic'd
Members mlwarriner Posted January 6, 2006 Members Posted January 6, 2006 all of my FX are in-line between my bass and the amp, so if i go DI, my FX go too. i personally prefer mic'ed, but if the soundman has a definite preference, i go with his idea.
Members bassplayer7770 Posted January 6, 2006 Members Posted January 6, 2006 I've only been miked once. I usually go direct from my Eden head.
Members My bass in your face Posted January 6, 2006 Members Posted January 6, 2006 Originally posted by Nazman06 How do ya'll do it? If there's time to set it up I like both. DI out from Ampeg pre mixed with the mic. I take my own mic with me, a ATM25.

I take my own mic with me, a ATM25. Between mic, DI or mic & DI, I'd still choose just the DI. I've tried it everyway possibly and nothing is ever clearer than just a DI (assuming the PA is capable).
Members L. Ron Hoover Posted January 6, 2006 Members Posted January 6, 2006 Originally posted by bassesofalessergod call me old fashioned, but I like to be Mic'd I like to do both as a player and a soundman, but if I have to make a decision I will always choose a mic. Hey Boalg! Long time no see!
Members FreestyleIntruder Posted January 6, 2006 Members Posted January 6, 2006 onstage I like DI, it just makes everything just that much easier, fewer mikestands to trip over and whatnot in the studio, I also usually DI (either straight into the desk or through my Ampeg preamp) but if i'm feeling frisky i might blend in a littl mic'd signal too
Members M-1 Fan Posted January 6, 2006 Members Posted January 6, 2006 I've tried it either way AND both ways. Going DI is always better.
Members Thunderbroom Posted January 6, 2006 Members Posted January 6, 2006 I've played both mic'd and DI'd and don't really care which way I wind up in the PA...as long as I'm in the PA and rockin'.
