Les Thumbs
• The preset area of banks 0 - 3 contains the same patches as A - d.
• The ZNR value may need to be adjusted depending on the bass guitar and
amplifier.
• In play mode, parameter knob 1 can be used to adjust the CABINET parameter of
the DRIVE/SYNTH module. Higher values result in stronger cabinet character.
• When using a bass amplifier, selecting the flat EQ setting is recommended.
B2 Patch List
Based on the ultimate rock bass amp, the AMPEG SVT, this sound is great both for bare finger playing and when
using a pick.
Simulates the sound of a HARTKE HA3500 with 4.5XL that became the Will Lee trademark.
All-rounder distortion sound. Turn on pedal wah, flanger, and echo for even more excitement.
Traditional-style auto wah. Transform percussive play with ghost notes straight into a funky sound.
Progressive rock sound, taking a hint from Yes bassist Chris Squire.
Straightforward but addictive sound for pop and rock. A slight dash of room reverb is the secret ingredient.
Classic sub-octaver sound created by Pino Palladino.
Fretless bass sound using the defret effect. Add a slide to a phrase and turn your instrument into a fretless bass.
Flanging sound for those smooth and flowing phrases, supported by a solid backbone.
PAD type synth bass sound. Great for lead bass and for programing sound during live play.
Combines the all-tube SVT from AMPEG with an 810E cabinet. Experience that gutsy tube amp sound.
Simulation of HARTKE HA3500 head amp combined with aluminum-cone cabinet 4.5XL. Note the
characteristically straightforward punch of aluminum.
Simulation of MARSHALL 1992 Super Bass head amp combined with 1935A cabinet, tailored into Marshall style
drive-oriented sound.
Simulation of TRACE ELLIOT head amp AH-500 combined with two cabinets (1048H & 1518), producing the
typical midrange character of British rock.
Simulates the Fender Bassman 100 also used by Paul McCartney. Enjoy that special Beatles sound with
Rickenbacker and Hofner violin basses.
Simulation of ACOUSTIC 360 head amp combined with 301 cabinet, characterized by a tight midrange.
SWR sound modeled on a SM-900 head amp combined with the Goliath cabinet. Rich low range and clear highs are
bound to impress.
Simulates a high-class tube preamplifier such as used in recording studios. The fat and supple sound fits every genre.
Simulates the lightly distorted sound of the SANSAMP BASSDRIVER DI, beloved by many bass players.
Simulation of the Tube Screamer used by many guitarists as a booster. Get that cool overdrive sound, whether
picking or fingering.
Simulates the MXR BASS D.I. + distortion channel. A gutsy low end plus the right amount of original sound creates
distortion with a solid core.
Simulates the ODB-3 overdrive bass machine from Boss. Proper mixing of original sound gives fat overdrive
without losing bass response.
Simulates the Fuzz Face famous for its unique look. Wildly distorted fuzz sound is great for those aggressive bass
lines.
Chorus sound often used by Jaco Pastorius in the late seventies. Lets you play his "Slang" loop solos with hold
delay.
Rock style sound as personified by Flea of the Red Hot Chili Peppers. Use a Stingray or Modulus bass and whip up
some slap bass action.
Bootsy Collins sound using auto wah. Dress up in a fancy costume, wear star-shaped sunglasses, and let it rip!
Motown sound made famous by James Jamerson. Sixties Motown comes alive again.
Marcus Miller type slap sound. Typically deep SWR bass sound is complemented by glossy highs.
Simulation of distortion sound suitable for Tony Levin style lead play. Connect an expression pedal and turn pedal
wah on to create highly effective wah sound.
Emulate the midrange-oriented fingering work of artists such as Me'Shell Ndegeocello or Jeff Berlin. Styled as a
tube preamplifier sound.
Designed to sound like Sting when he was playing with The Police. Fairly traditional approach covers a wide variety
of genres.
Blues sound from the days of Muddy Waters. The range is low-fi, but the impact is powerful.
Collaboration of synth and step may surprise at first, but will show its potential when played with long tones.
Phaser sound lets you embellish your slap playing with modulation effects.
Sub bass sound such as used for Techno, Electronica, and Drum'n Bass. Experience a sine wave so low it seems to
hug the ground.
Harmonized pitch shifter sound in an A major key. Good for bass solos.
Combination patch of fuzz and octaver. Heavy sound lets you lay down the rhythm with wild picking or play a
strong lead.
Enchanting tremolo sound with reverb creates a dreamy backdrop or enhances a moody solo.
Stereo chorus and delay in the style of Michael Manring. Control hold delay with a foot switch to play loop solos.
Modeled on the typical slap style of Primus frontman Les Claypool, this sound combines TS9 and resonance filter.
Use it to create your very own style.
