Gear 4 Music Product Information
BG500 shares many features with the original RH450 which has already changed the way many bass players have come to think of amplification. Just ask Rocco Prestia of Tower of Power who made his very own version: Staccato51.The powerful 500 Watt amps in the two models are identical and both have 1" Eminence tweeters but you can choose from either 2x10" or 1x15" Eminence driver configurations.Spectra Comp A conventional compressor tends to be dominated by the lower string but with Spectra Comp which is taken directly from the original RH450 you virtually get per string multi-band compression that evens out the compression across all strings. The result is that your sound gets compressed in a much more musical and useful way than any single-band compressor would be able to deliver.Tube Tone The Tube Tone effect was originally introduced on RH450. Most transistor designs have tried to replicate tube sound using one small preamp tube but they generally fail as they dont take the crucial characteristics of a full preamp and power amp into account - both of which are essential to the sound. Tube Tone emulates all characteristics to deliver the full tube sound.Presets OK BG500 will not memorize your chords or riffs but it will store three of your favorite tones. You may not have used presets before but thats only because youve never had the chance! For instance if you use different basses on stage you know that a few user memories would be welcome. With great sounding bass tones and seamless switching between them you will be able to focus on the important thing - playing!Built-in bass tuner:Every once in a while you need to tune up and whenever that happens just let the built-in tuner guide you. It?s simple it lets you tune silently and it gets you back to playing music in no time.Tweeter Tone:The tweeter control is usually located on the rear side of the cabinet but on the BG500 you can simply adjust the tweeter level right from the front panel. Further the sound also gets modified slightly with filters giving you a much more intelligent control over the critical high frequencies.Connections:Just plug and play! And for rehearsing or jamming along you can connect external devices to AUX IN. If you don?t want to disturb the neighbors plug in your headphones and the drivers will be muted automatically. Finally you can send a signal to a sound-engineer via the balanced XLR output ? or to an audio interface if you are recording.Features/Specifications:Input Section:Input connector: 1/4" jack Input impedance: 1 Mohm / 100 p FGain range: -96 to 36d BTone control:Bass: Center Freq: 160Hz (Gain: +15/-24d B)Low Mid: Center Freq: 400Hz (Gain: +15/-24d B)High Mid: Center Freq: 800Hz (Gain: +15/-24d B)Treble: Center Freq: 1600Hz @ Gain: -24 to 0d B; 4000Hz @ Gain 0 to +15Tweeter Tone: 0 to10 L-PAD Cabinet Recreation Tube Tone: 0 to10 Tube amp Recreation Spectra Comp: 3 band Spectral Compression User Memories: 3 memory locations storing all front panel controls except Mute & Master Level.Tuner:Bass Tuner: "On" when muted Tuning range: B0 (30.87Hz) to G4 (392.00Hz)Further Specs:Mute: Mutes speaker out Phones out and Balanced out Master Level / Headphones Output: Studio quality headphone amp HP Out Impedance: 40 to 600 Ohm Mains supply: 100 - 120V~ or 220 - 240V~ 50/60Hz (65W @ 1/8 of Max.
