how to use bass knob?

Recommended Posts

I hadn't hooked my bassknob into my amp since i was unsure on how to use it. Should i plug the knob in first then set my Gains or set them and then plug it in? and should i have the knob turned all the way to max while i'm setting them?

turn them half way on the remote and set your gains with the dd-1. It says that on the dd-1 manual but i turn my knob 3/4 and set my gains.

Most bass knobs are basically gain knobs, so take notice where the gain gets set on your amp cause when turning up the bass knob you won't notice any gain in sound once the knob goes past the point the gain is set on your amp.

That's because once you turn the bass knob past the point at which it's set on the amp, it doesn't do anything.
