  1. [quote name='Stag' timestamp='1334521573' post='1617236'] Mmmm Im getting 112 GAS now. [/quote] GAS? have you left the oven on?
  2. +1 for the s12, best cab ive ever used.
  3. [quote name='MacDaddy' timestamp='1333814633' post='1606910'] i checked out the GNX before getting my Johnson. I was under the impression it was just for guitarists? Obviously wrong - doh! I know Digitech own Johnson, there may be similarities between the J Station and the GNX? [/quote] i think the gnx series was an evolution of the j station, they did a genesis model which was a desktop version, they have a very simelar audio processor the mfx upgrade software also have a selection for the j station although because it is an older unit there are less upgraded models http://www.mfxsupermodels.com/ as far as im aware the gnx 1,2,3 and 3000 have just a few bass amp models but the gnx 4 has a wider selection with loads more available from the mfx website
  4. my daughter loves the Wiggles i hate to admit it but theres some pretty cool bass parts in there and they do them live too.
  5. my main bass has a fairly aggressive tone especially in the mids(seymour duncan 1/4lb pickups) and i find that the super 12t accentuates this slightly. for rock and metal its an awesome combination, especially if you play fingerstyle im more or less flat on my head with just a touch of compression. i have played loads of cabs and this one just seems to capture my sound in a way that i have never come accross before, wether it is because of the voicing of the cab or the fact that that it is just accurately recreating my bass sound im not sure but i wouldnt trade it for anything.
  6. if you are anywhere near me you are welcome to try my barefaced out.
  7. iv tried many of those and consider the SWR the best personally, but there is a barefaced vintage cab available in the for sale section which would tick all your boxes and be lighter and louder than any of those [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/163739-fsft-barefaced-vintage-t-tweeterised-vintage-only-2-made-l620/page__hl__barefaced"]http://basschat.co.u...__hl__barefaced[/url] i upgraded from a SWR goliath 3 and a SWR big ben (18'') full stack and my barefaced super 12 is louder, lighter and has more bottom end and warmth, it also punches through the mix in a 5 piece metal band with ease. they are worth every penny of the new price and occasionailly come up used here.
  8. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Trace-Elliot-Twin-Valve-Bass-Combo-/220989904892?pt=UK_MusicalInstr_Amplifiers_RL&hash=item33740657fc if i wasnt up north id snap this up immediatly. only£280 buy it now!!!
  9. i was looking for a quality modeling preamp for guitar and came across this. http://kemper-amps.com theres obviously some kind of evil witchcraft afoot as it seems to near as damn it nail the sounds its profiling every time. it does bass amp profiling too! and ships with some kind of ampeg profile as standard. if its good enough it could be the ultimate rig with potentailly countless classic bass rig sounds in one lightweight box. has anyone tried one yet?
  10. digitech gnx 4 with the mfx supermodels upgrade, pretty much the best thing for less money than an axe-fx (it has a full range of bass and guitar settings) its an old unit but still sounds awesome with the mfx package.(the mfx models are still bieng upgraded an new models added regularly) i recently upgraded to a pod hd500 which sounded good in the shop but as soon as i got it home the direct comparison was like night and day, the gnx was an awesome bit of kit and massively underrated at the time, needless to say the line6 went back. although i must add that the unit out of the box sounds a bit fizzy and mediocre, its the mfx supermodels that makes the difference.
  11. ooooh tempted, i was after a compact but maybe......
  12. iron maiden, steve harris on the track infinite dreams sounds lovely. rush, geddy lee on twighlight zone and xanadu
  13. +1 for the RH750, great amp, silly loud, very flexible too
  14. Reaper is the best!
  15. i love my rh750 its epic! and by far the loudest amp iv ever had
  16. i believe a name is what you make of it, if you make good music that stands out from the crowd or play to a high enough standard in the case of covers people will associate your name with your music or performance no matter what it is (within reason of course)
  17. quote from computer music article USB 2.0 has a transfer speed rated at 480 Megabits per second (Mb/s) or 60 MegaBytes per second (MB/s) Though it's rated at 60 MB/s, that's a theoretical value that is never achieved. A more reasonable estimate is between 20-25 MB/s. The most widely supported version today is FireWire 400 (IEEE 1394a). It's rated at 400 Megabits per second or 50 MegaBytes per second, but just as with USB above this rate is never actually achieved. An actual transfer rate of ~20-25 MB/s is also typical in real life. firewire is considered fast because of its comparison with usb1 but usb 2 is just as fast so its basically down to the effeciency of the drivers i use the roland and have no issues at all with latency even when using 20+ tracks loaded up with vst's and virtual instuments hope that helps.
  18. i was looking at the same options about 3 months ago and after extensive play testing of the scarlett, the tc and the roland quad capture i went for the roland quad capture, its a about the same price as the tc, but the preamps are far superior in opinion my and the latency is the lowest i have ever had on a usb interface, there are also onboard dynamics and samplerates support up to 24bit/192kHz also with usb 3 getting more support a lot of companies are begining to phase out firewire
  19. i need a compact to go with my super 12t , one day you will be mine!
  20. many thanks, just got some, they seem pretty nice!
  21. hello all, iv just snapped up a lovely Washburn AB20 acoustic bass on ebay for only £95!!! i have never had an acoustic bass before and so i dont know where to start for strings. do i go for phospher bronze, half wounds, flatwounds etc,and any advise on gauges would be great too. i usually like quite a bright tone but it must be comfortable to play (not too much tension) i play mainly fingerstyle rock/metal stuff. hope someone can help, thanks in advance.
  22. By moonlight we ride!!!!!!!! Awesome!
