Team_DC-Derrick Posted July 1, 2011 Report Share Posted July 1, 2011 (edited) clip lights are never accurate.. unplug the knob and turn it to 18 and see if you still have the issue... more than likely, your gains are not set right... you could be clipping before that he is getting audible clipping... how would unplugging the knob with the light on it make the clipping go away? especially if he could be clipping before the light comes on? he said it sounds all fucked up... bassknobs have been known to send fucked up signals... not that its clipping ive had a bassknob fuck up any kind of music after a certain point, it was almost like 1 full note, that played constantly, and it was a faulty knob... but you know, im sure thats not the problem... edit I can be on volume 17 and everything is normal (playing 40 hz) and then when i turn it up to 18 the clipping indicator blinks and it sounds like a broken up note instead of one constant one. Was wondering if anybody knows what this would be. didnt realize clipping fucks up the music to completely change the way the music is played.....i know what distortion sounds like, i know what clipping sounds like... that sounds like a fucked up signal getting sent to the subs, not a square wave.... but what do I know.. its only happened to me a few times on a few lower end amps....

skittlesRgood Posted July 1, 2011 Report Share Posted July 1, 2011 hmm, ive never seen a bass knob do that before. i wasnt trying to say you were wrong, but you didnt explain the rest of it and all i saw was a contradiction. i still think its clipping like normal.
