nsjohnson Posted June 12, 2024 Share Posted June 12, 2024 Hi all, been lurking for a while and have a question, hope you can share your thoughts. How are most running their rigs when using bass guitar, I’m currently going out stereo into the PA. Any benefits from running mono? Thanx 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisinon2 Posted June 12, 2024 Share Posted June 12, 2024 Running anything stereo in a live situation is a mess. The only person who's gonna hear your full stereo spread is the one guy in the audience who's standing dead center between the mains. Everybody else in the room is only gonna hear half. And we're talking about bass... if the sound guy is even half awake, he's taking whatever you're giving him and plopping it straight down the middle anyway.

nsjohnson Posted June 12, 2024 Author Share Posted June 12, 2024 We run our own desk on stage, I play bass first set and swap over to guitar second set. Have always linked HX Stomp XL to desk from stereo outs, never really gave it much thought. Just happened to read something recently about running bass in mono and was just curious. I’ll give it whirl next rehearsal. Thanx for the reply Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
