Part 1 of this video is a walkthrough of the basic features of this INCREDIBLE new Bergantino Super Pre bass guitar preamp.
There are several additional features that were not mentioned in the video, so see the listing at www.johnfoxbas... for a complete list of the feature set.
Please NOTE: The 21 preset memories (Mem 1, 2, 3 in each of the 7 Banks A,B,C,D,E,F,G) can each be set to ANY desired settings you want. For convenience for this demo, I stored three clean settings in Bank A, three Overdrive settings in bank B, three Distortion settings in Bank C, and three Fuzz settings in Bank D. But that just happens to be how I did it for this demo, it doesn't need to be organized that way. For example, you might want to just put your top 3 most frequently used settings in Bank A, etc.
Also note that this recording was made from the DI out, straight into the camera through an HK Multimedia iRig Quattro Pro (which has a lot of hiss!) with no cabinet IR or cabinet simulator, which is why it sounds fairly bright. Normally either it would be plugged into a mixing board and EQ'd by the sound engineer / recording engineer, or else you would set the EQ on the Super Pre such that that it sounds less bright, by rolling back some of the high frequencies as I did only in the setting in Bank A Mem 3. I have it set this way for running into an amp and cabinet. In hindsight, perhaps I should have just mic'd the cabinet! But it took 2 hours for the video to upload, so I will have to save that for another day. :-)
