Think they’re Elite Stadiums

That’s a beauty

In both my gigging bands the singers are very good at bantering with the audience.

Yeah I’ve actually printed out on Dymo tape an instruction to check that if no output, and stuck it on the amp panel near the controls.

For a set & forget compressor the Keeley Bassist is a good option. No bells & whistles, just does what you’re after very easily. Drive - well to add in a tad of drive I like the Ampeg Scrambler, as it has a blend you don’t lose low end and it just adds that bit extra to the sound. I have this on my Ampeg SCRDI and use it to just remove the clean sharp edges of the sound.

Same, I liked that one, though very interesting that the Oasis song with the best bass is one with Noel playing, maybe he couldn’t stand anything he’d played not being prominent in the mix?

Opposite happened to me, punk band, Precision with new steel rounds into driven Sansamp, engineer proudly advised after gig how he’d had real trouble getting a Motown sound from my signal but after a lot of work he’d managed it! Back on track, yeah I suppose the bass isn’t particularly prominent in Oasis but it has to be there, interesting to see the choice made about gear selected for a foundational role rather than cutting through.

Any clues yet to what basses Andy Bell is playing on these gigs?

Was a good evening of ELO

I’d recommend these, Gary has fitted a good few for me and they’re excellent

Just watching a great vid on YouTube from Ashdown about Geezers set up for tonight.
