    Start with the example settings in the manual and tweak from there. Run it directly into the FX RETURN on your amp, leaving the amp preamp section out of the signal path. It's great!

    I've been investigating this issue for my own use. I have discovered that the Demeter Minnie VTBP head has completely passive cooling - no fans [url="http://www.bassgear.co.uk/product/demeter-minnie-vtbp-m-800d-amp/"]http://www.bassgear....tbp-m-800d-amp/[/url] The poweramp alone does have a fan with an off switch for recording - not sure if that would be a good idea to leave off for an entire gig though.

    Withdrawn.

    Bump with price drops

    Sold, pending collection on Saturday.

    Does the Demeter Minnie 800D power amp have a fan? Photos are not clear, but you could add that to a simple preamp like a Tech21 pedal.

    [quote name='0175westwood29' timestamp='1420033018' post='2645009'] ive had alot of amps but even ones with loud fans like the Aguilar db750 or ampeg svt pro 8 never were so loud that as soon as anyone was playing the noise couldnt be heard. and more and more amps have the heat sensitive fans now so only come on when needed. andy [/quote] Every fan is too loud if it's just bass and clarinet! Lots of space in classical music - fan noise really kills the mood.

    Obbm is using his Prodigy with a Berg CN212 with great success. Might be worth sending him a message. I'm a huge fan of Berg cabs too. Beautifully built and sound excellent.

    [quote name='LukeFRC' timestamp='1419965679' post='2644449'] thats a lot of amp to stick under the bed! [/quote] Certainly is, but unless I swap my orchestra for a hairy arsed pub band it wouldn't be the right amp to use at the moment!

    Last bump before I stick it under the bed. £1450.00. Cash only. Collection only. No trades at that price.

    I seem to remember the Genz Benz Shuttle 3 not having a fan - it was 300W. They 600W and 900W versions do have fans. That being said, I play in similar environments as the OP and most of the time I use my little Roland Bass Cube 30. No fan, no transformer hum, no hiss. It's a brilliant little thing.

    BUMP and a string change as I was playing along to Duck Dunn stuff yesterday! [b]Now has a set of new TI Flats on it[/b] - could probably do with a tiny action / height increase if you are worried about a bit of string buzz and / or are a bit heavy handed. You can still have the D'Addario Pro Steels if you prefer, and I might even have a set of played in Chromes instead if that is more your thing. TRADES UPDATE: - as said above I'm really looking to fund another Berg CN112 (no other cab will do!) but I might be tempted with a deal on an Aguilar TH500 head.

    Bump. Carl Martin and Hardwire have gone. Open to offers on the rest.
  14. fretmeister
    That's the one! I've also got Clef Tutor (free version) which is a note based quiz against the clock. That keeps the brain going when I'm on the train.

    [quote name='CalDeep' timestamp='1419624322' post='2641435'] Would you be interested in a G&L Tribute L2500 Carve top as a trade? Cheers [/quote] Not my bag I'm afraid.

    [quote name='dodge_bass' timestamp='1419430894' post='2639890'] Any interest in this as a trade? [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/240982-fs-ft-berg-ex112-reduced/"]http://basschat.co.u...-ex112-reduced/[/url] [/quote] If only that had been a CN112 That's what I'm raising money for - I already have 1 and I want a pair.

    Sold

    I can't believe this is still here. I remember the magazine review when it came out. The used market really is in the toilet.

    PRICE DROP £400.00.

    Bump. I've added a couple of trade options to the original post.

    I played 4 strings for the first 20 odd years of bass playing, mainly because it took me that long to find a 5 string I actually liked! These days I mainly play with an orchestra (and smaller ensembles) so having the low B allows me to read straight from the bass clef on the piano score. That low B is really important on many pieces. Over the last 3 years or so I've played so much on a 5 that anything else feels very odd now!

    Berg CN112. Get a pair. Awesome cabs.
  22. fretmeister
    Ignore this post. I found a different link.

    Bump!

    [quote name='originalfunkbrother' timestamp='1418813967' post='2633532'] Would you be interested in a Yamaha TRB5F? [/quote] Thanks for the offer, but I've given up with fretless, particularly with plain boards.
