can I connect this to my interface?
I enjoyed watching your presentation of the Blue Jay. I’m scouting videos looking for a cheap home unit that accepts pedals. I’ll use it plugged into an 8 ohm 1×12 cab. Thanks for sharing and you did present some good tones with your pedals. Think I’ll check out a few more of your videos to see more of your content.
This is actually a great pedal platform amp. I have a Soldano SLO 30, modded Fender Blues Jr and this is staying in my collection. It takes pedals really well (has a nice warm clean sound) and sounds excellent. I typically run mine with the gain at 8 O'clock and the volume at 3 O'Clock (I am using pedals for any breakup / gain). It's great because you can play at comfortable levels (also running mine into a 16 ohm cab so levels are low). If you want to push a cabinet at reasonable listening levels it's excellent and extremely affordable. IMO if you have pedals the BlueJay or the Tweedy are the 2 to get. Great review here.
The only thing is that you forgot to mention how you felt about it taking pedals you did run them, but you did not say anything about it. Is it a good pedal platform or are there better options out there for around the same price maybe even 100 bucks extra
Gain is for tards, but that wont stop me from buying one.
Was the overdrive out front or all thru the loop
I've had a Bluejay for a year or so and it is very clean sounding through my Celestion V30 speaker in a cheapo but still great Harley Benton G112 cab. You seemed to be able to get a bit of break up with gain and volume on full but mine doesn't break up at all – were you using a pedal in the first couple of minutes? If not, how do I get that slight tubey tone break up?
Can use a Cab Sin with it? If so would it be between board and amp? or use the effect loop? PS I Connect a 10' orange cab and the overdrives sounded bright and toneless. It worked well with wet signals.
looks like a great spare to use with a Blues deluxe cab if the amp goes down
I noticed the volume is always cranked. Either he's peeling the paint off the walls, using an attenuator or that solid state twenty watts isn't enough to drive a speaker to reasonable volume. I've got two tube amps and neither can be set past about ten o'clock without producing deafening volume.
FWIW, I didn't watch the entire video. If he explains why the amp volume needs to be all the way up, I must have missed that part.
Hello. Can the BantAmp be used without connection to the speaker output and without connection to the headphone output at the same time, without harming the amplifier? Would the amplifier suffer some kind of damage at the moment or in the long run? I want to output the signal through the amplifier send to an audio interface to record the signal without cabinet emulation so that I can use my custom impulse responses, and at the same time I don't want to have headphones and/or speakers connected for a while, can this be done without damaging the amplifier? Thank you
Wish these had a DI out option, I'd certainly pay a bit more for one with a DI. Dang!
Can we hear a direct-to-interface recording?
How would this compare to an Orange micro terror ?
Cool review
