My Perfect Bass Rig?
It Seems the NU-X Cerberus is even more versatile than I first thought.
Disclaimer: I am not much of a bass player. I play guitar and I can get by on bass, but only really as a basic, utilitarian.
Not being a real bass player I don’t have any kind of bass rig except my trusty Squier Jazz Bass (no bass amps, preamps or anything else)… Until now. In fact I already had a “Bass Rig” under my nose after getting my NU-X Cerberus earlier this year.
Seeing as it will load Impulse Responses I thought I’d see how it performed with my bass because I have a bass gig coming up in a few months and wanted to see if I could be more prepared than just turning up with my bass and hoping the bass amp would work out well.
It turns out that it just may prove to be a great bass rig, especially for my needs. It’s easy to carry and set up, has a few choices of tones from clean to distorted and gives me the ability to send a DI signal similar in sound to a mic’d up 8×10 cab. All while allowing me to go into a conventional bass amp at the same time.
With the addition of my mini limiter pedal to add just that extra little bit of control that was missing from the Cerberus by itself I feel like I have been gifted a great, versatile bass rig for free. I already love the Cerberus in my guitar setup, so this is a huge bonus. It’s more than a guitar multi effect unit. It is, in my opinion also a great bass multi effects unit if you just want some useable, dependable tone choices on stage.
It’ll also be good for recording bass in the studio.
Oh and another thing. It looks like it’ll be a great setup for my live acoustic guitar needs too. Maybe I’ll do a video on that as well.
