Bass, middle, treble, and master volume that controls the overall output of the head. The normal volume, which will act as a preamp gain. As far as the controls go, theyвЂ™re pretty simple. It drives the head a little bit harder when you have it on high input. We have the option for high or low input. For this particular line, I happen to like the phase invert switch on. You can really use this to your advantage to tailor your tone a little bit. Before I even mess with anything, I just want to point out one of my favorite things about this plug-in, and thatвЂ™s this phase invert switch here, which makes a big difference. You can notice, if we look down here, weвЂ™re going to see that I have the DI amplifier at about the middle. I didnвЂ™t really mess with this sound at all. IвЂ™m going to just play something that I had recorded previously with this preset, which is вЂњcrunchy big 70вЂ™s.вЂќ LetвЂ™s start at the top with the bass head. On the bottom of this plug-in, we have the option to use a DI signal, and we can blend the mic amp feed with the DI signal, and we have some adjustments, which IвЂ™ll get to on the DI feed that allow us to sculpt the tone a little bit more. IвЂ™m not sure if thatвЂ™s supposed to be an open or closed back cabinet, but clearly we have a variety of sound there. We have a 4Г—12 closed back cabinet, and we have a 1Г—12. We have three cabs, we have the Ampeg 8Г—10.

The DR103, and from there, we can switch cabs, but thatвЂ™s going to give us a lot of flexibility. You only get one head, so itвЂ™s not like you can swap those out with say, an SVT head or something, itвЂ™s just the one. They give us a couple of different cabs to choose from that weвЂ™re going to pair with this head. I believe they chose this particular head, which is originally a guitar head, because you could get it to breakup and get kind of this really nasty kind of вЂњWhoвЂќ or tube overdriven sound if you really want it.

In the preamp section of the bass amp, which would be a tube head if you had a bass amp with you, the head and the cab, the head is based on a DR103 hi-watt head from probably itвЂ™s the early 70вЂ™s. Now, thereвЂ™s a couple things I want to talk about with this plug-in. IвЂ™m going to run you through some of the features and give you a few examples, so you can get a feel for what this might sound like if you use it. Today, IвЂ™m going to be talking about Bass Amp Room from Softube.
