    It's probably in the forum somewhere and I haven't found it, but does anybody have the answer? I want to switch from active to passive so I can run through a tube preamp....(TubeMP/C brand). Running it active (full time active) puts too much noise into the board and I was hoping to stop it so...

    Active or Passive for Max Headroom, Low Power Amp

    Ibanez SR400 - Active or passive pickups?

    I've got a old Ibanez SR400 (1997, Made in Korea, the black one in the pic) with P/J-pickups. I love the bass but not the sound, to my ears it's muddy and unfocused. After doing a bit of research here on TB it seems that other people have the same problem with their old SR400's. I've sort of...

    DI active or passive after effects

    I have a passive fender p bass but I plan on putting a DI after my small pedal board (fairfield accountant compressor and barbershop overdrive). Should I be looking at a passive DI since I am going in post-effects? This is for live situations. Thanks!
