  1. The pups do not pick up vibrations through the body. They only register disturbances in their electro-magnetic field. Such as the strings vibrating or the phone in your pocket connecting to a network. Other than that, good question, fun to read up on! Let's get started with a bit from Wikipedia: " In music, the undertone series or subharmonic series is a sequence of notes that results from inverting the intervals of the overtone series. While overtones naturally occur with the physical production of music on instruments, undertones must be produced in unusual ways. While the overtone series is based upon arithmetic multiplication of frequencies, resulting in a harmonic series, the undertone series is based on arithmetic division."
  2. Which is true for ALL stands and hangers. Not everyone drives a car so we don't need parking spaces? The market for such an item doesn't have to be huge. Many backlines for pop/ will feature a 810/610 or maybe even a 412.
  3. Basically anyone who plays rock gigs then.
  4. When considering the Beyerdynamic dt770 please do yourself a favour and also try the 880 and 990. If you don't need closed back headphones their sound is balanced better, with less overstated bass. Also I am still a fan of the Sennheiser HD 25 - 1.
  5. In traditional grind-core setting, exactly 45 songs.
  6. Dean Stylist Cabbie bass! Love mine, very useable, lightweight, deep sound. Have a bump.
  7. Which ones are you in to? Do you have pics or links for us so we can disagree some more? 😉
  8. Solid construction, fit & finish, that's what I would care for once I picked a brand & model. The best thing you can do is to play a few side to side, see what it feels like to you. Like Chris-b said, after all other factors the choice of wood makes less than a percent difference.
  9. Ahem* Bassbat
  10. It's not just you, note the 'braintree' popup and the 'cookie policy' tab at the bottom. That's right, I said bottom!
  11. Keep it upright for improved sound coupling between the drivers and better radiance characteristics. Try what sounds best to you in different situations though, enjoy!
  12. Alles 4 of us have a A4 handwritten on the day setlist on the floor or monitor near the pedalboard.
  13. Just the Netherlands then... Add Delain, Mayan, Ayreon (or whatever he spells it like today) Orphanage, the Gathering
  14. 6 days before I turned 21 !!
  15. Which suggests even worse is yet to come! 😯
  16. You can follow that 'ladder of inspiration' all the way down to it's root of cavemen banging rocks on tree trunks. There would be no rock without blues, no blues without old timey folk songs, etc.
  17. Alan Rickman. RIP
  18. Ah well for instance UK has Bolt Thrower, the US has Obituary. Tit for tat really. Iron Maiden Vs Metallica? I think for most genres there is an equivalent genre overseas of similar influence, with acts carrying similar weight. Both inspiring the next generation artists on either side.
  19. So far, no music has been named that is relevant to me. Very broad strokes.
  20. Not European but have a look at Verellen amplifiers? I use his meatsmoke dual channel preamp pedal. He used to do a bunch of custom stuff, not sure if he still does.

    Compressors

    I use the cali76 nowadays, the regular pedal not the bass version. The LPF was not at all to my taste and having the attack and release linked on a single control annoyed me no end! If you want less affected tone there is already a control for that, the separate dry/wet knobs give no end of wonderful setting options. For my music I wanted to be able to set the attack and release individually as I have them both set a bit fast.
  22. I use the Harley Benton flat cables. No issues for the past year.
  23. Look up the concept of 'timbre', what we often call the tone is an amalgamation of frequencies produced by ringing a string consisting of the fundamental frequency and the harmonic overtones. Please don't derail the topic with a head/headless discussion, other threads exist. edit: ixlramp explains better than I can, the posts crossed 🙂
