  1. Or the old holes in the body of the bass filled and new pilot holes for the screws made in the right place. Quite why anyone would assume one piece of hardware is going to have the fixing holes in exactly the same place as the item it is replacing when they are of different designs is beyond me.
  2. Is that any worse though, than the sound of multiple cutlery drawers being flung down a stone stair well which is the default noise produced at bass shows?
  3. I think they are all too "Indie" for your typical Planet Rock audience. For me "modern rock" would be a band like Bring Me The Horizon who use guitar riffs and electronica, or a more modern version of Young Gods.
  4. What would class as a modern band playing modern rock music?
  5. I wouldn't ever consider using DT100s for mixing.
  6. The usual fix is to remove the Librarian and Central programs and their preference files and re-install, because something has become corrupted from the original installation. This which trying on a different computer normally also works.
  7. IMO pretty much any modern bass will be well-made enough to be more than useable for recording. Go and try a load and buy the one that suits you the best.

    It might be worth getting the acoustic treatment done before you consider spending serious money on new speakers.
  9. It wasn't the most comfortable of instruments to play and the neck on mine had suffered from a serious break at some point which what been reasonably well repaired but then hidden under a much better re-finish so I didn't discover it until I stripped the finish off with the aim to have a more interesting colour... IME it doesn't really matter which way around the octave and main strings were. It only matters when playing with a pick if you only pluck in one direction - all up or all down stokes. And as I'm quite a physical player it was easy enough for me to pluck both strings even when playing finger style, although I preferred to play mine with a pick.
  10. Bluetooth has too much latency for real-time audio transmission.
  11. "Tone" as completely subjective. AFAIAC even playing pick with a pick some more mids are always a good thing.
  12. Not really. Full of spelling mistakes (and they must be band if I can spot them) and a rather tasteless jab at Mark Hollis considering that he's passed away the year before the article was written and the author couldn't even be bothered to do a little research.
  13. I just want to see a firmware update for the Helix/HX series that includes a MIDI triggered VCF and VCA with full and independent ADSR envelopes for each.
  14. Hence the proliferation of "Straight Edge" bands. It's now more "radical" not to use drugs.
  15. IMO the pre-shape is there to make the amps sound impressive when you try them in the shop. They have minimal use in real-world situations.
