[QUOTE="metalheadjoe, post: 8733873, member: 581422"] We're answering different questions. You're answering where you have your bass knob while you set gain on the amp. I'm answering where I set my gain on the amp if I have a bass knob. You shouldn't use 1khz to set the gain on your bass amp. Your low pass filter will attenuate 1khz to the point of nonexistence. Ideally, you should check for clipping on multiple frequencies because your amp likely doesn't produce a completely flat frequency response. I recommend the app called "Tone Generator". My remote gain control has a clipping indicator on it, so I know exactly when I start clipping. OP is seasoned enough to effectively set gain. He's asking because he's curious what others do.
