BASS ATTACK Typical Set-ups
There are many different ways to use the Bass Attack, however, the basic connection is the same
in most installations and applications. The following sections detail the connections for a Bass
plugged into an on stage amplifier and feeding a main PA mixer in a live situation, and also,
using the pre-amp with external effects feeding a console in a recording situation. Follow these
simple steps to get connected:
Direct Insertion of an Instrument into a PA System
One of the most common applications for using a DI, like the Bass Attack, is getting the signal of
a bass guitar into the PA system. Simply put, the low frequencies produced by bass are difficult
to mic, so use of a DI box is almost always preferable. In addition, the signal going to PA system
can be tweaked by the FOH (front of house) engineer, without affecting the sound the musician
dials up on stage. Follow the diagram and steps below to connect a guitar to a PA mixer.
• Connect the output of the guitar or bass to the Bass Attack’s INPUT.
• Connect Bass Attack’s PARALLEL OUTPUT to the input of the guitar or bass amplifier.
• Connect Bass Attack’s DIRECT OUTPUT to the input of main PA mixer.
