USING EFFECT PEDALS WITH THE BASSBONE

Effect pedals can be positioned in a number of ways depending on what 
you are attempting to do. For example, you could have some effects 
dedicated to one bass by inserting them between the instrument and the 
Bassbone input.

You could also introduce a series of pedals between the Bassbone's ¼” 
output and your amp. This way the pedals can be heard through your 
amp but the effects will not be sent to the PA system if using the balanced 
XLR output.

To take things one step further, the Bassbone is equipped with an unique 
effects loop designed specially for bass. The effects loop lets you insert pedals 
by depressing a footswitch and mix the effects with the original bass signal to 
preserve the fundamental tone of your bass. You can also assign the effects 
loop to channel-1, channel-2 or both, giving you absolute freedom. Connected 
this way, the pedals will be heard through your amp and in the PA system.
