Hi All.
Just wanted to greet you all.
Thomas form Denmark. Bass player since my teens now a lot older +50, but still as enthusiastic about music, instruments & amps as always.
Have always been the type who likes to try new equipment, but often waiting for the rush to get over and picking it up a decade or two later :)
Same with my recently purchased MB 1. Have known about them from early 90'ties but Denmark is a small country, 6 million inhabitants, so certain pieces of gear is rare to find.
Even on european bass sites like bassic.de or Basschat.co.uk.
Other than that, I'm playing an Alembic Europe 5 and a Lefay Carlsson 5 string fretless with their stainless steel fretboard! Best fretless I've ever heard.
Gearwise, current rig consists of Glockenklang Bass-Art Classic pre-amp, programmable midicontrolled eq from Clark Teknik as well as a compressor from Klark.
Power amps from Crown and cabinets 15"and 12/6" based on Eminence speakers and Fearful designs. A few stompboxes, EBS Octaver, Carl Martin Envelope filter and tube OD.
I'll likely post a couple of technical questions as it seems the MB 1 has lost some of its pre-sets as there's no sound output between program 30 and 60 and a few other individual program lines.
Regards
Thomas
Hi Thomas welcome to the depot. Good to have another MB-1 user. I suggest starting a topic about the problems you have so we can chime in.
Welcome Thomas!
Great, another Bass player in here...where's Peter?
Welcome Thomas, While I'm not the one that will be answering your questions, I will say you are on the right track asking the Think Tank here. Short of the man himself D.T. your questions are in good hands. The MB-1 Is a Beast of a bass preamp if it can't make you sound good... Well, you know what I'm saying ;) Happy to have you abord.
Hey Thomas, welcome to the depot :thumb-up: :wave: . First suggestion is (if you haven't already) have a good read of the manual. I did some posts a while ago when I got my 2 MB-1s about how to use CC control with them. Needs the last EPROM version (v2.05) which (if yours isn't updated yet) you can get from MJMP in Belgium.
