DIP switch settings - Ken's Corner (Bass Forums Sponsored By KSB)

I am curious as to what are your dip switch setting if you changed them from factory default. I changed mine but I am guessing others changed based on their rig.

I really haven't found a need to change the factory settings. However, out of curiosity I have changed between "Original" and "New". If I had to choose between the two, I would choose the "New" settings because I'm hearing a bit more of the Mids cutting through the mix.

I use both "Original" and "New" settings and have no problem being heard in the mix either way, given the tonal flexibility of the Smith 3 Band Pre-amp.

That's why I did change from factory settings - a little too much mids for my taste. To each his own.

When you say "factory settings", are you talking about "Original (9V)" or "New (18V) settings?"

I agree: To each his own. As long as you are happy with the tone and it's cutting through the mix.

I changed from "new 18 vlt settings" and yes it cuts through the mix with warmth and lows! It sits in it own sonic space and I am happy!

What model Smith bass are you playing?
