I've been in a situation where the backing tracks EQ was utterly unsuitable for a full PA - there is a learning curve to get them right.

I had it the other way, was accompanying a singer songwriter, made the mistake of rolling the highs off on the amp to go for a Jameson soul type sound, way down in the mix but quite “busy” in the way Jameson was. odd gig, it sounded ok, didn’t seem to gel together and more people nodding their heads than I would have expected for laid back music … sound guy complimented me on my playing and how my tone reminded him of JJ Burnell

so is a IR is a eq curve with a time dimension.... A blank IR is one that is flat and does nothing - like these https://www.strymon.net/faq/bypassing-the-cab-on-iridium-with-a-null-cab-ir-file/ Then when you turn the IR on, it does nothing other than what you set the HPF and LPF at in the editor... (which I just installed to get you this screen grab)

though interestingly these aren't IR's ... they literally are EQ curves.... I bought a multiFX pedal (Zoom B3, then Zoom B3n then HXstomp) mainly as I played at a church and odd things would happen on the digital desk. Part of my way of solving this was to give them a signal that approximated the response of a bass cab with the top and bottom trimmed... The Zoom things were really nice, but the HXstomp got into IRs and... I tried them for a long time but couldn't make them work for me. To my ears IR's sound amazing on electric guitar and do lovely things to the tone. The HX stomp is utterly amazing on electric. For bass though the sound of a speaker cab recorded through a mic just felt odd, like there was a blanket thrown over something, or some thing in the phase in the mids or there was latentency I was playing against or something (NB I have no idea what it was) - and I always preferred using no IR or cab sim and just a HPF, LPF. @warwickhunt - you would be able to test it, if you load a blank IR into your NUX and just use the HPF/LPF on the editor

On internet adverts? You’re kidding me? what about that guy in a swimming pool saying how much money he made with some thing, or the heating system so good they want to make it illegal, or the binoculars, or currently I’m getting a Turkish textile mill who do something but I’ve skipped by them…

Jazz noodling adverts are better than some of the alternatives

Once you get to digital it’s a lot simpler - a lot of ir loaders include a HPF/LPF - it depends what you are doing with it , it’s a different use case than a thumponator

Vong adjustable HighPass-Filter (30-140Hz)4th Order-Filter -> -24dB/Oct. (-12dB/Oct. fixed at 30Hz -12dB/Oct. adjustable) adjustable LowPass-Filter (.250-22kHz) 2nd Order-Filter -12dB/Okt. adjustable DI-Out £45 ish - but you have to build it yourself

There’s also two uses - cleaning out crud, but also something like the Vong with a LPF too means you can kinda do a simple pseudo cab sim

I was about to say similar - the well reguarded Broughton is 12dB/oct

For the general elections living in a Con/Lab marginal I don't know how I feel about "paper candidates" - if it was the situation where the inbuilt majority vote didn't really matter I would possibly vote Green, but as it's a marginal, I won't... the paper candidates don't do awful, but split the progressive vote... Mind you I think it makes sense why parties do it, but some kind of transferable vote system would be far far better I think, or list system like they use for the Scottish parliament. Anyway- ~VOTE BOBBLE HATS! VOTE SCOTT!

I’m in the same constituency as him - ild vote for him if he ran against our incumbent MP.

I’m more wondering is some of those old big box electro harmonix pedals would be big enough to work as a canoe and get off the desert island? otherwise do you think it would be possible to get the Hudson broadcast to actually broadcast?

Guessing it got tagged for import and vat?

did you order direct? I got put off by the postage!

Quite! Fair play to you if you attempt it!

Just found musikding will have what I’m after at some point - which saves on postage

Anyone want to share postage costs on anything from aionfx?

Shame it’s the wrong colour for your board

I'm sure he'll start off with the wooly hat on too

I like the minimalism of the demo one one fun stuff

This - it's clear communication that makes the difference.
