I've tried to figure the most respectful ways to explain that I would prefer the cabinet mic'ed up, I use amp overdrive and amp feedback, I play bass more like a guitar than a reggae dub bass. I have even gone to the extent to bring an SM57 with me (not ideal but it's fine for what I'm doing). I either have endure some lecture or have an argument where it feels like I'm pulling teeth just to get a live sound situation that I'm comfortable in. I have immense respect for sound people and presume that they want shows to "sound good" but that's a subjective opinion and a lot of times, sound people just don't get what I'm going for. Often times the bass mix in the monitors sound like muddy garbage, I feel lost on stage and it fucks me up while playing. /rantRather than let this effect my mood before a set, I want to see if I can run a DI via the Rusty Box. Again, sound people seem perplexed about how to run a DI through the Rusty Box so I was wondering if anyone here has a DI box hooked up to their Rusty Box so that I can just give the sound person a XLR output to just plug into. Any recommendations on a DI box / settings?Shit I hear you man.I know you've probably figured this out... but I should answer this for posterity.The main out on the rusty is a DI. Just get a TRS to male XLR cable and tell them this is a DI signal. The only thing it needs is to roll off above 10k. Because the crackle above 10k sound great rolled off though a speaker... but a little fizzy though a clean channel input.

I was guessing that it's the wall wart but since it's 30volt I don't have a way to A/B it. Anyone else ever had this problem?Occasionally I have seen this... it could be a few things. firstly I would make sure the jacks and pot nuts are all tightened. if that doesn't solve it we are happy to look at it for a repair. Send an email to Sales@tronographic.com if you haven't already and mention your PRF name so I can find you. Cheers,

Ok. I will let the cat out of the bag here only. The old 30v Rusty is about to be discontinued... and we are down to the last 2 units in stock.Then we will not have any for about 3 month. We are sad about that but we tried. Then the new version of the Rusty Box will be 9v. And will run on a typical pedal power supply. (no batteries though)Everything else about it is the same. We had the original designer update the art so the two versions are unique.We will probably have a preorder starting in February.
