Ampeg SVP-BSP

So to start is the Billy Sheehan signature prampli 2 channels with a single 12AX7.
A clear channel, 1 channel saturated (thank you billy!)
when it connects between the rear prampli "power amp" amp of your head, it automatically takes over your floor of amplification and uses Tage power of your amp head, so in clearer, it uses the power of your amp head.
to connect, nothing more simple, with a jack, you connect "preamp out" of prampli and you connect between the "power amp in" of your amp head.
sr well, plug the power cable to the mains and press "power" of prampli and red LED lights!
ah! ah! ah!
v hurt!
for rglages is not complicated, for the clean channel, gain, bass, mid, treble and volume with two buttons: mute (mutes the signal) and pad (rduire allows the level of between instruments or assets s owner pickups with high output).
for channel saturated; gain, bass, mid, frequency, treble, master volume and two buttons supplmentaires; chanel select (for channel selection) and combined (to put the two channels together and saute the house! !)
the rear of the vehicle, an output "foot switch" for pdalier (delivered with the beast, 2 outputs "preamp output", a saturated output channel and one for the sound clear, and why? because a system that uses billy stereo amplifier and you can use the same principle leisure using a speaker for clear sound and another for its saturated !
even when it is unusual in the realm of bass amplification!
Then, it was "effects loop", with each channel, 2 inputs, and send return.
APRS, is "transforming balanced output" No one can rgler the output level of each channel with a level knob and you have an XLR output for each switch with a 2-post / pre, you can plug channel directly on the Tagus external power or a mixer, and with the 2-position switch on the clean channel it is as if we availing oneself of a direct box lamps, must be more qu'apprciable for fans of home studio picky!

UTILIZATION

For me, the configuration is as clear as crystal!
you scratch the buttons, and you got the sound!
readily obtained a good sound, everything you rglez dpend how the Pramper!
The manual is quite clear and explains very well how this prampli and bonus, was the regulation of the focus right style; "smooth", "slappin '", "mid & fuzz .. .

SOUNDS

For me, it may be appropriate any style of music, I also think, we should confine arrter ampeg sound of rock and are the rglages, fingers and especially bass players of his brain that are style and not the amp!
I plugged my Yamaha TRB-6 in and I can say I found the perfect add-ins my head ampeg B2R!
the sound of this prampli is more oriented sounds warm and it is this "little extra that makes all the difference" with my head ampeg B2R.
for his slap-bodied, no problem!
for his funk / medium rather groovy and that puts your bass musicman stingray for, no worries!
and jazz, I'll not speak ....
I prefer that sounds, it's all I have marked above.
that I prefer the less it is a certain lack of precision in the treble, but I must say, I did not pass over one week every glimpse rglages; Clear Channel is already well on its own, so when you flip the channel saturated; must grow before!
sound standard and mammouthesque!
and whether the mammoth supermarkets no longer exist and most n'crasent your portfolio, can prampli t'craser eardrums if you're not careful!
the distortion is amazing and, with the medium rather than the button and "frequency" you can choose either high-or low-medium rather than medium rather, very useful to carve out a sound saturated tailor!
both channels combined and can be fun to talk about the powder!
you can play as saturated fat and saturated billy, bright and bold, clear fat-free ...
short, many things possible ...

OVERALL OPINION

I use it last night!
I love the most, the possibility to plug in stereo, the sound round and warm sound saturated BLEND the two channels, the hallucinatory power of the machine ...
I like the least, the fact of not being able to tamper with the sound with surgical precision as on my B2R! (Fawns all I care, if I want to replay on my B2R, I dconnecte the prampli and I found my sound ampeg specific on!)
I dj ssay buster bass 400 of the home mesa / boogie, a hybrid head Hartke lamps / transistor, to ampeg rocketbass (gnial!), old-elliot trace of APRS war ...
Report qualitprix question, it's very good hardware, is virtually the same hardware professional hardware for the love of her!
I remake this choice with the exprience that I live so it makes it warm ct B2R missing my head and all these things she did not (distortion, stereo ...) I think it's the perfect companion for my head B2R!
