    I just need a band to play bass in so I can make my weird noises. I think I might actually have enough pedals... what's wrong with me?

    Zoom B9.1ut

    [quote name='lxxwj' timestamp='1336940975' post='1653085'] Well, they're basically a bunch of digital samples stuffed into the same box. There's no way it's going to sound good. [/quote] There are no samples of sounds stuffed into this box. It does have A/D/A conversion going on if that's what you're on about? I love zoom multi-effects. I use a lot of individual pedals too (I think my collection is at least 40 pedals) but I still gig with my B2.1U as well.

    I need a looper so I can play with my pedals instead of f***ing about with basslines.

    [quote name='Rick's Fine '52' timestamp='1337160658' post='1656294'] How large is 'large'?? [/quote] To be honest I was only joking. I love cheese but for a cheese/bass trade to make sense i'd have to get much more than my fridge could hold. Maybe someone with an industrial fridge could put together a call-off deal for me, but I doubt it.

    Bump - no offers yet, you never know, I might take a (large) block of cheese!

    [quote name='Rick's Fine '52' timestamp='1336993651' post='1653578'] The comments made, would suggest the price is too high, someone even said that very thing, I was trying to be more subtle. I think its a bit rum asking the same price for something (non-vintage), that you bought second hand 9 years ago. Compared with similar acoustic bass prices, it would appear high. You're not supposed to comment on pricing in the FS section of BC though, so I was trying to be subtle with earlier comments, as you'd asked for some tips on how to improve interest in the item. [/quote] Like I said any public discussion of pricing is cool with me as I have no idea what it's worth. I thought you may have been referring to something else... maybe Fender Acoustic Basses aren't great or something. I will re-consider the asking price in a couple of days, but I did hope that people would just offer me what they think it's worth.

    I do this with my Peavey TNT (well I run my pedals full range but anyway) I have the hi output from the crossover going straight to a guitar amp, and leave the lo output unplugged. This seems to send the full range from the pre to the power section of the peavey amp giving me full range to the combo speaker. The easiest way to test is to plug a patch lead into the hi output of the crossover and see if it drops all the high end from your sound.

    Bump! [quote name='Rick's Fine '52' timestamp='1336762863' post='1650825'] I think the info you need is already in this thread?? [/quote] I don't understand this at all!?

    When I was a kid we loved cricket but couldn't afford a bat. We tried to fashion one from wood but it didn't work. The 62 strat my uncle had in his loft was perfect once we'd cut the sides off. Later, once I fell out of love with cricket and took up the guitar, I just glued some new chipboard sides on so it looked cool... what's the problem?

    I'm not particularly careful when moving gear around. My basses will always be in cases though, unless they're on a stand, so they tend to avoid much damage. My amp is pretty beaten up but I don't care, it still sounds the same. I do have a rule to keep the top of my amp clear of any liquids. It's nothing to do with being precious and everything to do with avoiding serious electrical problems!

    [quote name='p58' timestamp='1336471025' post='1645952'] well, I was worried with the same problem. I took some of my velcro, went to Baumax and than to Ikea. I tried to attach it to every carpet there and than something happened - 1 euro carpet for dogs solved my problem [/quote] Isn't this the perfect solution? If you can't get to Ikea take some of your velcro to a local carpet place?

    With 3 pedals it's not going to take long to try out every possible combination
  13. cheddatom
    As far as I can tell this isn't a current model and none of the fender ones I can find are as slim or have a single cut-away - I was hoping someone would have some more info for me really
  14. cheddatom
    Thanks BIGd - as I said pricing suggestions are more than welcome. I did buy it 2nd hand so will add that to the OP to make it clear. I was hoping 9 years worth of inflation would be my loss on this bass but perhaps that's too optimistic

    I bought a mic from Ian, he shipped it as quick as possible, packed very well etc. An absolute pleasure to deal with!
  16. cheddatom
    Any tips on how to improve my listing?
  17. cheddatom
    cheers Nice bass by the way!
  18. cheddatom
    I get the impression there's a thread i've missed somewhere. I've seen a lot of jokes about fake rickys but don't get it. I know it's lame to ask but can someone link me?

    If you've saved all your BC posts you'd have 2 years worth ready to copy paste!

    I wouldn't worry about having EQ and compression on every channel, as long as it sounds good!!

    one of these USB jack leads might do the trick. As I understand it they're a cheap-o audio interface built into a jack lead so it would feel just as direct.

    [quote name='EskimoBassist' timestamp='1335867849' post='1637096'] Big feature set for the price no doubt, not to put you off (as I'm sure there are many of happy users) but my Marshall Reverb went south after only a few months of usage. Worked great when it did, plus it has hardwire bypass, but suddenly poo'd itself, no idea why. Very comparable to the DD-7 I think, in terms of features? [/quote] I have a jackhammer too from the same series and have gigged them each quite a lot (and I stamp quite hard on my pedals). Nothing's gone wrong yet. Did you look into getting the pedal fixed? I'd say it's comparable to the DD-7 but a lot cheaper

    ok, well the on-board sound cards on my computers around 10 years ago were great, and I used them to monitor the line and mic inputs with no latency. If I then started to record, I would of course find latency, likewise adding effects in real time.
  24. cheddatom
    I thought that you shouldn't really get latency unless you're doing something to the audio input - adding an effect or amp sim or something? I never used to get latency when simply monitoring my line-in. I did get latency when I started using VSTs (without my nice interface)
  25. cheddatom
    HD24s never seem to go that cheap? The FTP function is great though - used to use them at uni If you had an old laptop you could leave it on all the time, it's not going to consume that much energy
