I can’t see anywhere called Coupon to put the code in now?

Hi, I recently bought a Pedaltrain Nano on Amazon and it seemed ok. I was looking at the pics on Amazon the other day and noticed it should have a shoulder strap with it. I called the importer and they kindly sent me a strap down FOC which was great. Problem is that there does not appear to be anything to attach the strap to? I’m wondering if I have a Friday afternoon model of the Nano!! If you have one can you tell me or send a pic of how the shoulder strap should attach please?

Evening all, My Kate Bush tribute band Moments Of Pleasure recorded this recently in lockdown - not easy to play remotely. Excuse the fretless playing, I’m still trying to master it!

I’ve been looking at these too - trying to work out the difference between the regular and Pro. I think it’s that the latter powers phantom power microphones?

Yep - that was my next thought. I like the look of the new Aguilar DB925.

It has a Bartolini in it - I think they ship with EMG HZ now?

When I bought mine they were offering a wood finish on some but none were available at that time sadly so opted for black!

Nope mine is 5 string and black!

For me, yes. The gig that I use fretless on I have to switch between fretted and fretless quite a lot and all of my fretted basses are active basses with some serious eq on them and by comparison the Spectorcore seems a bit tame. I’d like to even out the tone difference if I can.

Evening all, I have a SpectorCore 5 string fretless and thinking of upgrading the pickups and electrics to something more punchy. Really liking the look of the Aguilar DCB pickups or the OBP 3 preamp as a possible solution. will this work?

So, we did the same thing as before but this time with the track Breathing - not easy doing a one take only clip!

Thank you - I know when you say Kate Bush tribute act most people recoil in horror but we’ve had really great feedback both on social media and more importantly when we perform live.

We all recorded our parts using iPhones or web cams and then they put it together using something called Power Director I believe.

I’ve been busy with my Kate Bush tribute band (Moments Of Pleasure) over the last few months although Coronavirus has stopped all the shows we had planned at the moment ☹️ This week we managed to record a “remote” version of Army Dreamers - let me know what you think.

Yep - QuickTime player works perfectly and as advised above you can select the 2i2 and get DI signal straight to video which is exactly what I needed. Thank you guys - fantastic help and advice as ever.

Both my iMac and MacBook Pro don't appear to have Quicktime on them - I downloaded a version from the web tried to install it and it says it can't becuase I already have Quicktime X but I'm buggered if I can see it and a Spotlight search only brings up Quicktime player?

USB C inputs or regular USB?

Interestingly when plugging the 2i2 into my MacBook Pro via USB C you do have an option to change the audio input from microphone to the 2i2. I tried it very briefly tonight and lo and behold using Photobooth a video can be recorded with a lovely DI bass sound. What I don’t know is why the iMac wouldn’t do it? It’s a 2014 model so perhaps they have solved that on later spec machines or USB C does something that regular USB doesn’t?

Thanks - had not seen that option before. I’ve turned interface on and adjusted the settings - see attached pic. Gone to Photobooth recorded a video but bass is still just the audio in the room?

Afternoon, I'm sure this is pretty simple but I'm having huge problems with it. Just want to record my bass with DI signal into video for You Tube or Facebook with as little fuss as possible! I have a Focusrite 2i2 interface, iMac, MacBook Pro, iPhone and iPad all capable of running GarageBand. I can't seem to see any option to use the USB C on the MacBook Pro as an input and PhotoBooth has no option to use anything other than inbuilt mic for audio in. If the iPhone or iPad can accept audio over the lightning input do you need a special adapter as when plugging in via that connection it still uses the ambient mic which obviously sounds crap. I'm sure it can't be this difficult!! Help please.

Won’t be long now sadly.
