How many of you use the Ric-O-Sound?

[BigJohnAZ]

I have a Sunn Beta Bass amp with two channels. I have my bridge pickup set up with a more aggressive tone with a bit of drive and a little bit of mids, the neck pickup is scooped.

I use it too, stereo cable style, bridge p/up into an Acoustic 260 micro stack (sometimes I use an EH Nano muff on that line just for a little "oomph" ) and neck p/up into an Acoustic B100. I've said it before I'll say it again, expensive American bass through affordable Chinese amps... and anyone that has a problem with it can give me the $$$ for a couple vintage 361s

The few times I have used it, it has been great. I did a recording session with ROS one time, which was fun. But I have never made it a permanent part of my live rig. I would like to come up with some way of using effects that would be good with it, I don't really want to bother with two amps though.

I use it. I just run a stereo cable from the Rick-O-Sound Jack to this:

The box on the bottom is a custom Rick-O-Sound type splitter with a built-in headphone amp/mixer. It can also combine both signals or swap which goes to which SansAmp, in either passive or buffered active mode...

But CJ, does it go up to 12???!!?

Depends on how you add up the knobs...

What's also cool is i can run one amp clean,and put my VT pedal on the 2nd send for some grit. I have yet to try this in a live setting,with a full band.

Do it! I used to do it all the time with he last band I was in. It sounds amazing!

Better get on the sound man's good side first, though.

I do. Neck pickup goes through a compressor then to channel 1 of my amp. Bridge pickup goes through another compressor, chorus, fuzz, and a synth pedal, then to channel 2 of my amp.

Absolutely and exclusively. Nothing ever gets plugged into the mono jack.

I use it as well, going into two Fender Bronco 40 amps for practicing, and two Marshall MB150 amps for performing - a very cool invention, no doubt!
