Some are a remote gain cut. You set the gain without the knob connected and then when you plug it in the max setting on the knob is the gain you set to the amp to, and then you just turn it down from there. Others are a Bass EQ set around 45hz and they usually go 0-12/18dB. I personally dislike these ones because a. I have much better upstream EQ and b. They can drive an amp into massive clipping very easily. If you have one of the EQ type ones it can be a good idea to set your gain with the knob at about half. That way you can turn it down if you want to but you can also enhance quiet songs without getting into clipping. Just be careful with it. 10.x volts fo' life!
codi Posted January 19, 2009 Author Report Posted January 19, 2009 now how would one go about finding out which type of bass knob they got, and if it helps any i have a tma t1000.1 or some thing along those lines
