I bought one of those little yamaha THR practice amps just over a month ago as i had a couple of guitar gigs and don't have a small amp for home practice.  I downloaded the iphone app mentioned in the documentation and i think it's realy good. You can load a track you are learning, slow it down, change key and mark A & B repeat points for those tricky sections. Also you can remove, (as near as damn it),either the bass or guitar track so that you can play along without those instruments .

The only thing i would like extra is the ability to load a playlist that i'm working on.
It's a free app too.

it may not be available in the usa but try changing the 'gb' in the link url to 'us' or 'usa' https://apps.apple.com/us/app/thr-session/id485607882
or try searching the app store for Yam[size=78%]aha THR[/size]

Looks like it is Apple compatible only as I can't find an Android version.

i searched the goggle play store and couldn't find anything that resembled this.  i've still got my 30-year-old korg pandora PX4-B tat gets used almost every day.  pretty sure i've given myself carpal tunnel a coupla times with this thing.  it's survived 2 marriages and countless basses over the years.  i'm running outta devices it's compatible with.  it's pretty sensitive to RFI and so i can't use it around a cellphone (especially a 5G).  i've got one old samsung tablet with an actual 1/8" headphone jack that it still works with.  when that craps out, it'll be a sad day at BeenDown manor.  seriously.  for sure.
Been down...now i'm out!

So, Jazzy, do these things work on bass?  I know they list a 'Bass' preset, but have you tried it?

Thanks,

I use the yamaha thr amp for both although i only use it with headphones for bass. the bass setting on the app removes , almost, the bass line from the track you play along to
