Two Bass Instruments And A Piano

I will be using this for recording vocals, instruments (bass, trumpet, guitar, sax) and synth (strings, piano, etc.). Having tried it on synth samples thus far, it adds a mellowing and pleasing analog feel to the recording quality. Excellent manufacturing and presentation.

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).

One of the great things about MOTU Symphonic Instruments is that it runs on G4 processor, and even on 256MB of RAM. Consequently, on the even the cheapest of the modern laptops (just like my 2MB Mac Air Intel i5) it works smoothly and loads all the instruments instantly. To me it's the best thing ever to run software release in 2006 on a 2012 computer, because it just runs great. And the sounds are simply breathtaking. Even the concert piano is mind blowing, really lending itself for classical piano playing in real time from my digital piano keyboard. And the price could not be better with B&H special discount offers. I took advantage of the discount, and I am a very happy camper now. Oh, and the authorization process with iLok is very good. I installed MOTU Symphonic Instruments on two computers, and to run it, I simply insert the iLok USB dongle, and voila. It's simply great.

We are using them in our church for miking a piano, podium and using them for our bass singer. Have used them for years and have never had a problem with any of them.

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

It's way smaller than I expected but sound amazingly great. It has good focused bass. I can imagine every instruments.

I am loving these headphones. The sound is quite neutral in terms of you hear all instruments. Some people complained about the lack of bass, but I can hear it just fine. In fact, I have never heard so much detail in each bass note before getting these cans. For the price I think you will be hard pressed to get better headphones and awesome sound quality. Diana Krall sounds amazing, as does any genre of music. I would recommend buying these headphones.

I've been familiar with Ibanez instruments for decades, and owned one in my college days. After an accident recovery and 20 years of not being able to play bass, I recently decided to take up playing again. I anticipated a low budget instrument, with all the normal flaws associated - but this surprised me. The body is lovely, and although not exceptionally weighty, it's heavy enough to give great tone and sustain. Frets are nicely inlaid, and free from chatter. In fact, aside from a very slight intonation adjustment on the G string, this instrument plays as well as some much more expensive bodies. The active bass boost is a bit of a gimmick, but tone is quite diverse and dynamic. Tone tends toward being very bright, but it easy to attenuate. All together satisfied.

Easy to use. Sounds great. Full sound with clear distinction between voice, instruments, and bass.
