The procedure is on page 23 of the manual that you can download from the link Mudpup posted. You'll need a USB cable with the right ends.

Mk1 Yamaha TRB5P would fit the bill.

The way that Ariana Grande handled what happened in Manchester means that she is beyond reproach as far as I am concerned.

Me too too. Great performances all round.

@elephantgrey, I'm pretty sure it won't be the Niall Horan version :-) Thanks for the replies. There's a preset which chains the phaser with a bass booster, which puts back some of the tone sucked out by the effect, so I might go with that. Or suggest they use the 'live and dangerous' version, which has guitar on the intro.

I think if you're trying to sell your own amp you should be upfront about it, and maybe confine yourself to the for sale forums. I mentioned the Reidmar because OP had expressed an interest.

There's a Reidmar 750 in the classified ads at the moment.

I'm still using an LM2 and think they're great amps. Have you thought about the TTE501 or 801, that's what I would be looking at if I had enough regular gigs to need a new amp.

You could start with the thread 'Obscure Musical Backwaters' or somesuch, I think it's in the 'Bass Guitars' section of this site. Of course many of the photographs will be photobucked but the information should still be there.

You could bypass the EQ by using an effects return for the mixer input.

Yeah, that's a very good result, these are well-made and great sounding basses even if the shape is a bit of an acquired taste!

Fixed that for you!

Mark, a.k.a. bluesparky. RIP.

Not Norfolk, but Peter at ME Strings at Monks Eleigh can probably sort this out for you. Don't know of anyone nearer, sorry.

I've just been asked to play Dancing in the Moonlight for a dep gig I'm doing in the new year. Does anyone have an MS60B patch that gets close to the effect? I'm guessing it starts with Phaser, maybe a bit of EQ and Chorus?

That could definitely do it - if you had any pfl buttons down (stands for pre-fade listen) it takes the signal upstream of the EQ and faders and routes it through to the headphones / monitor socket. The monitor sockets on the top are intended for when you're using the mixer in a recording control room and want your playback through studio monitors. Hope it helps, when I started out I knew nothing and people here helped me a lot, so what goes around comes around.

Great mixers the MG Series and I find very easy to use, but I have one so am biased. Probably Aux bus weirdness as Cheddatom says. Pete's rough guide to MX series mixers:. This doesn't include the digital effects, if you have any. Start with: All channels switched off. All channel faders down. Group bus faders ( dark grey) down. Stereo (Master) fader (helpfully coloured Red) down. All EQ's to 12 O clock. Pan r/l to 12 O clock. Compression to zero. All 'pfl' buttons up. All 1-2 and 3-4' buttons up (if you have these). All 'ST' buttons up. All the aux channel sends to zero (the ones with blue tops). All Aux master volumes to zero. Connect everything up. Power on mixer, amps, powered monitors in that order. For each channel: Turn on the channel and press down the pfl button for that channel. Get someone to speak or play and adjust the 'gain' control until the output in the VU metres is occasionally reaching 0, in green. Put the pfl button back in the 'up' position and turn the channel off. Lather, rinse, repeat, for all the channels you're using. Set the monitor/phones switch to 'Stereo' (up) and turn on 'On' and 'ST' for the channels you're using. Bring up the faders on individual channels and get a rough balance on the headphones. When you're ready, bring up the Stereo fader gently until you get FOH. Optionally, increase compression but don't overdo it. If you want to adjust EQ, try and cut rather than boost. (ie cut mid and bass to boost treble) If you're using separate monitors, connect them to one of the 'Aux' inputs on the back of the desk (not the 'Monitor' sockets on the top of the desk next to the headphone jack). Usually you want Aux1. If there is a pre/post switch set it to pre. Turn up the Aux Send master for the Aux you're using to somewhere between 12.00 and 3.00 and then turn up the individual channels Aux Send to get a monitor mix. Hope this helps, good luck and have a great gig. If all else fails, read this! https://partydj.be/PDF-files/Handleidingen/Sound/Yamaha/yamaha-mg166cx-manual.pdf

Don't Stop Believin'

Lucky Fret Music, formerly known as Vintage Guitar Boutique in Shoreditch, London, have the oocasional bass, though they mainly concentrate on guitars. West End Music in Ipswich occasionally have interesting stuff too. That's a proper old fashioned music shop that is.

What changed? I'd have said it's value was a lot closer to £100 then £350.

Sell your existing cabs and buy 4 8Ohm 8x10s. Job done.

Go to google, do the search and include site:www.basschat.co.uk in the search string.

Mines no longer showing and I dont recall having a yellow postit telling me how to turn it on. Where is it set please, I can't find it in settings.

I had a B2M but the tracking wasn't great and the latency was massive. OK if you want ambient type slowly changing sounds, utterly useless if you're trying to replicate Aint Nobody or Papa Dont Preach. The i2M is supposed to be better but not a lot better.

I was told that the compression sims are the same on B3n, MS-60B and B1ON so it will be very interesting if there is any difference. I've been using an MXR M87. If I was looking now, I'd be looking at the Keeley Compressor Pro (not the Bassist) which has the controls for attack, release, threshold, compression and make-up gain that you need, and decent monitoring. A cheaper way to achieve the same thing might be a used 19" rack studio compressor - I have Phonic that came off the ads here which does everything you could want and cost a lot less than a new pedal - just depends if you want to cart a 19" rack case around. If you're already using a rack case and have a spare slot, and you're looking for always-on compression it's a good solution. Somewhere on this site are some awesome postings by 51m0n on the subject. They used to be in the Wiki when there was a Wiki (will that ever come back I wonder?) , maybe a good test to see if the new search engine is any better than using google.
