I've gone back to DI.FM No control over the play lists but the music is still good.

[quote name='tauzero' timestamp='1430469309' post='2761630'] I think you can tell from the astonishing success of the Westone Rail and the Gibson Grabber just how much this feature has caught the imagination of bassists the world over. [/quote] Quite a few manufacturers have had a go. Alembic did it back in the early 70's, Spalt have a sliding pickup and Bob Daisley developed a bass with sliding individual coils per string.

Is there any lip synching?

They were my preferred music provider - they had lots of great ambient, house and funk tracks and helped me discover music from Rykksopp, Tycho and Grant Edwards. But I never knew they were unlicensed.

One bass, two humbucking pickups with coil splits for single coil and parallel settings. Tweak the pickup pan and roll the treble off if you need to but keep the mids and bass constant or you'll get dirty looks from the soundman.

John Pattucci had a similar set up on his Lag Jazz bass I believe. This was back in the late 80s though.

If I get compliments, I generally credit my 12u rack mounted backline filled with esoteric 80's japanese delays and US boutique compressors along with my 6 string pitch to MIDI bass and intersonic servo drive subwoofer.

Thanks very much everyone.

These came up in my own research. They came highly recommended on various review sites and Youtube.

[quote name='rodney72a' timestamp='1388627270' post='2324263'] As far as I know, the bassist on the JCS tour was Ian King. Phenomenal player. [/quote] He has been a member on here on and off. Its a great show but the Australian music tour (just songs, not acting) blew me away. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y6PxaBYnOGw John Farnham as Jesus, Kate Cebrano as Mary and the indomitable John Stevens as Judas - what voices!!

is that the band our admin Charic was lined up with for an all too brief moment?

Thanks guys - I note Alpine do an Android head unit now.

Godin make some fantastic instruments. They contract build for other makers as well.

Started off on drums but had microfractures in my wrist from high school volleyball which made playing painful. So I shifted onto bass as the next best choice in the rythmn section.

I'm looking at replacing my car hi fi. The current set up is an old Sony tape/radio/CD set up (with boot CD changer) into JBL cones. I'm looking for a DAB/CD/USB unit with fairly neutral eq settings (rather than having all the mid range scooped out) and has a variety of options for connecting to android phones. A satnav might be nice but isn't essential. I was wondering if anyone has recommendations for online retailers or particular combinations of components that work particularly well?
