If you could only bring one bass tone to a session… this is the one. Just look at history.
Nashville Studio is built for players who need a record-ready tone that works everywhere, live, tracking, church, indie gigs, Motown pocket, modern rock sessions. Plug in and you’re instantly sitting in the mix.
At the heart of this preset is the legendary Ampeg B-15 Portaflex, the studio amp heard on thousands of iconic recordings. There’s a reason engineers and producers love it: it just works every time. Warm. Focused. Punchy. Never harsh. It flat-out sounds good on everything.
Dual Routing (Pro Studio Output Setup):
Right Channel – Clean, studio-style compressed DI into a tube-style preamp/mic pre
Left Channel – Mic’d B15 amp tone
Run them independently or blend to taste. Send both to FOH. Track both in your DAW. This is the same flexibility pros use in real sessions in Nashville sessions.
3 Snapshots – Dialed & Mix-Ready
Snapshot 1 – Clean / low gain warmth
Snapshot 2 – Edge-of-breakup grit
Snapshot 3 – Higher gain push for rock & drive
Stomp Box Mode – On-The-Fly Flexibility
Stomp 1 – Polarity Control/Phase Check
Stomp 2 – Noble DI (for clean Di Signal)
Stomp 3 – Amp Room Ambience for 1:15 Cab
Sits in a mix
Works on passive and active basses & plays great with external pedals
Covers worship, indie, Motown, rock, session work (pretty much everything)
Studio-grade DI + legendary amp tone in one rig
The B15 is famous for a reason. It flatters your playing instead of fighting it.
If you want a bass tone that feels like a finished record the moment you hit a note Nashville Studio is it.
