In addition to its wide-range frequency response, this original amp also provides for the reproduction of heavy, deeply resounding bass sounds.
You should be able to hear a bass sound with a tone quality that is diff erent than what you would obtain if you simply boosted the bass range using an
equalizer.
The [BASS] knob should be positioned in the center, so that the lower end doesn’t resound too heavily.
If you raise the [TREBLE] knob, thus emphasizing the string friction sound, you will be able to reproduce the fi nest nuances of instances when the
strings are touched.
By lowering the [MIDDLE] or [LOW-MID] knob, you’ll be able to obtain a sound with an even wider range. Conversely, if you raise the [MIDDLE] knob or
the [LOW-MID] knob, and turn on DRIVE, you’ll be able to create a broad variety of sounds, even aggressive rock sounds.

CUBE-120XL BASS
An original amp featuring a wide-range frequency response.

sound modules like bass synth.

SLAP BASS (SESSION)
CUBE-60XL BASS
[SHAPE] Switch: ON or OFF
CUBE-120XL BASS
[SHAPE] Switch: ON or OFF
This setting cuts the midrange for a great slap bass sound.
Setting the [SHAPE] switch to ON further boosts the low and high ends.
To get a crisp slap sound, lower the [MIDDLE] knob or the [HIGHT-MID] knob setting and raise the [TREBLE] knob. This emphasizes the brightness of the
string sound, resulting in a slap sound with a lighter pull sound.
To get that attacking sound used in rock music, raise the [BASS] knob and [MIDDLE] knob or [HIGH-MID] knob settings to produce a sound with greater
power. In addition, in the case of the CUBE-120XL BASS, if you lower the [LOW-MID] knob, you can obtain a sound that is deep and heavy, yet has great
defi nition.
