Black Mountain Instruments Upright Bass

Works fine with the Audix ADX20i mic on my upright bass

If you close your eyes you can hear where the different instruments are. Very detailed sound. Bass is great. Not too much, not too little. If you are a bass junkie, get a subwoofer. I just wish it had dust covers and that the USB could input sound.

Mogami cables are what I use between my console, interface and instruments (Guitars & Bass).

I am using the INV-6 on my upright bass (the mic is an old Sony ECM-23F back-electret mic and the INV-6 is monted to an ExplorAudio H-Clamp SPIRIT Mic mount. The INV-6 does its job of shock absorption VERY well and at the same time doesn't stick out as far as the spider type shock mounts.

This is my second L1. I run them in stereo from the mixer. Vocal, upright bass, keyboard and drums. Clear and clean sound.

I am a bassist that plays a fretless electric upright bass and sings background vocals in several bands. Because I have to look at my fingerboard regularly to check my intonation, it's hard to use a traditional stand-mounted mic. I got a Shure SM-35 headworn condenser mic (phantom power required), but needed a way to turn the mic off when I was not singing. After looking at several switches, I bought this one and used it at a gig last night. It worked exactly as advertised - no noise, no popping, no problems. The only issue I had was a difficulty plugging in the mic itself - the input on the Power Mute was very tight and it took a rather strong attempt to get the XLR connector in to make a good connection and locked. It could just need a break-in period, but that was the only problem I had with it.

I installed this on top of an old atlas mic stand to get a better reach across my upright bass. Works great and not hard on the wallet. Whats not to like!

I'm a bass player and switch between a Upright and Electric Bass during or gigs. And would get feed back from the Uprights piezo pickups. The two channels on the DPDB allows me to use the two thru bypass line outs to my A/B switch to send one line to my Amplifer and Two XLR sends to our PA Mixer. With a better quailty signal going to the Mixer we don't get the feed back. And it gives me a channel for each of my instruments in the mixer so we don't have to change the volume levels when I change from one instrument to the other.

This headphone has a very good bass response. Listening to In The Hall of the Mountain King, for instance, with my old headphone, I could not hear the cello very clearly and other subtleties were lost. With the PortaPro, it's almost as if I were hearing the piece live.

Love it! Full sound, amazing bass, mids and highs. The spatial clarity between instruments is excellent at both high and low volumes.
