Can I connect a bass guitar to this mixer? Basically I am planning to use this and M-Audio AV 40 setup to practice Bass guitar; will it work?

Yes, I plug my bass into it quite often. My bass can be switched between active and passive mode, and it works well both ways with a large difference in signal input between the modes. If your bass is like mine, turn the input volume all the way down before switching to active and then adjust the volume accordingly after switching to active mode on your bass.

I believe u can if u have powered speakers as this unit doesnt have powered output.

I haven't tried it with a bass, but I'd have to agree with the other responses, that it would be unlikely to handle the low frequencies of the bass, except at volumes probably not useful. The Behringer BX108 (at least the older version) and the Ashdown TOURBUS-15 are nice little bass practice amps although not as portable as the Pignose or the Roland Microcube somebody mentioned.

I use it with my bass as it is still an amp modeler, it's just not optimized for bass amps so much. That being said there are several amp and boxes and knobs to turn to lower the gain and distortion. Plus the several reverb effects you can use and just bypass everything else. If you play bass mostly, there are models optimized for bass, but this has been a jack of all trades for me, though I'm not all that advanced so I'm not competent to advise any further than that. hope it helps.

Its not really a mixer for dj use. You need a mixer with a usb out. This one does not have that.

As far as i know you can. But i recommend double checking with experts at stores like Guitar Center or Sweetwater. Are you intending to plug in directly to the speaker? I would think you'd be plugging the mic into the mixer.

No it would not handle a bass guitar for anything more than a low volume practice. Love the other comments and advice.

this is a great basic mixer with normal board outputs no USB input or outputs. I am sure if you had a usb rca junction junction box it would work great. Also inputs are in XLR and 1/4 inch so you may need adapters.

I have used a bass guitar with this pedal, it does work but you won't find patches that are suitable for Bass guitars. Check out bose's pedals. They do have a few made for bass.

I don't think this amp would sound very good with a bass guitar. It tends to be better for bright tones, which doesn't make it very good for a bass tone. I'm sure you could play it safely at lower volumes, but I don't think it would be a very good bass tone.

Yes, I'm 99% sure it will work. It basically takes the signals from the passive pickups, amplifies and applies active treble and bass eq. I used it with some standard Bartolini "soap bar" bass pickups. I think you will be ok.

I do not play bass. I don't see why you couldn't plug your bass in to this unit though. I would have know idea what tones you would get from the amp and cabinet models, but with just about unlimited effects and equalization options I'm am sure you could produce some cool tones. You can also set individual output levels for just about every option on the G5. Don't know if I would spend $300 to find out though... Maybe find an 800 number / email address for Zoom and ask them. They may also have another option for you.

Yes....in fact it's best that way. For best results, hook into a system with a sub wolfer or something with a deep bass response. I use a 1/4 in Y connector and run a bass amp and a guitar amp together. You get that big boom sound with the bass drum that way.

It uses 1/4 audio cables so I would use the output from the mixer into the enhancer then into the amp/receiver it adds space to the sound just be carefully with the bass it does not have reverb just good clean sound with lots of space between channels get some good shielded audio cables and or adaptors if you have to step it down to Eva plugs for a receiver or stereo amp I had to spend some time to get it adjusted to my room so do'nt give up on it to soon have fun and enjoy!

I suggest using a guitar pedal eq (or some other type of preamp) before you go to the mixer. This will boost the signal and the pickups tone. I am currently using this on a mandolin. It sounds very natural. I have tried this on a cello, it was plenty fat. I think with the eq you will get a good sound. You can't beat the price. You could even get crazy, buy 2 pickups and 2 eq's and put 1 in the F-hole and 1 on the bridge???

You can, but it won't give you the best tone.http://www.musiciansfriend.com/resources/article/Can-I-Plug-My-Guitar-Into-a-Bass-Amp/m710564

Yes, just be sure that your receiver has amp remote input, where blue cable must be connect. If you conect only the audio chanels you can not control the amp and you only can use the EQ for the bass but not the amp. Receivers that have control amp input alllow you control the crossos over and amp hz etc
