    I picked up a bass recently and already have the non-bass version of the G1X Four, any advice for getting some interesting tones out to out of the unit to work with bass? I used Zoom Effects Manager 2 to install bass effects but I can't access them in ToneLib Zoom, which makes it kind of annoying to mess with, I guess the program spoiled me from fiddling by hand. Currently playing out of a guitar amp (at bedroom volumes) so I need to bump up my mids in order to hear it well, thus far only a Rat has really solved that issue. Mostly, I'm interested in overdrives, I've got a 70CDR+ for reverb and mods, I imagine those effects would still work fine with a bass. Do they?

    What exactly distinguishes the G1 from the B1, How are B1 effects different from G1 effects? How might I make the G1 work well with my bass, should I be messing with the EQ? Turning down the treble, turning up the bass?
