  1. Yeh, listened to the demos, I can see it would work for some singers with no backing vocals, but for me that wouldn't work at all. I am a backing singer and as such I don't do a 3rd or 5th etc of what the singer is doing, I do a contrasting line so for instance I can be going up when he is going down, or just on one note etc, so if I had a harmoniser on that it would enforce the backing over the primary vocals and not work well. I can see as one of those singer song writer acoustic acts or country or a solo singer in a group it would be good. Like all of these things, it really is group dependant I would add, the up down in the H1 demo is exactly the same as the VoiceLive 2, and sounds the same as the harmony mode, just quite a bit cheaper, i have one but just don't use it for the above reasons, and pedalboard space.
  2. The critical mass I only use flat out - i use it for the 'hey teacher leave them kids alone' bit of brick in the wall. I think it sounds horrible in in ears where you can hear it perfectly, but in the PA into an audience, it sounds great. Like you, I don't like pitch correction and I don't use it, I do the BVs but also do the high bits of some songs (beatles songs etc) where I fade in and the singer fades out.
  3. I used the critical mass with the sax and it sounded great
  4. Not sure there is much to fail, and if it did, it would only move round so you couldn't adjust it, in which case you could tune it back up,. Anyway, I contacted all the people who had the ric tuners and they didn't have them, so I contacted hipshot who told me that as long as I didn't mind putting a screwhole in my ric (which I don't), the 3/8 tuner with a 12mm long bush is a perfect fit.
  5. I would point out that both of my Evox 8s are second hand, so between them they were less than 1k. The XR18 is now cheap as anything.
  6. You didn't, I was just saying. ok, well the rule is to only ask for valuations in the wozzit worth forum, which you can only see if you are a member, so if you want to post it there, thats fine, just not here.
  7. Except part of that conversation was someone mentioning to them the rules of off marketplace selling, including showing the actual rules, so I think it was clear.
  8. Hidden the posts that are based on pricing a specific bass, because thats against the rules, as mentioned. If you need help with a specific valuation, please use the wozzit worth forum.
  9. You can - only you know if it would work for you, if you don't have a loud drummer, maybe you can - we used to practice with just the one and it was loud enough, but obviously a large amount of people absorb sound quite a bit!
  10. Absolutely, I never managed to keep any bass that had the BH or similar OEM barts in.
  11. Indeed - I love the RCF Evox 8s that I have, just two boxes, no extra poles or anything, turn up and plonk them down, connect them up to the mixer, or if you got a JMix8, which is basic but functional, one to the other, plug the power in, jobs done, no poles etc. Plenty loud for a pub or basic outdoor stuff (including the bass and bass drum going through them). If you haven't got the one with the mixer in, get a basic digital mixer which are really cheap now, a XR18 (or even smaller), or even a flow 8. But if there are 6 of you and some instruments, something like an XR18 would give you a microphone each, all the instrument, then speakers to out, and 6 outputs to IEMs, or monitors, or the cheap P-16 personal IEM things (which are fantastic) for an individual mix. That is what I have done a few hundred gigs on and no problems (actually the evoxs, probably still under 100 gigs, but the mixer and everyhing way over).
  12. Might help with confidence
  13. I only use a gang harmoniser for a few things, but I would say I never have thought a single BV sounded wrong or weak. Its a lot better than just a normal solo singer.
  14. ok, looked into it a bit further on my main basschat machines, which is a windows computer 8:30-5 and a mac with safari the rest of the time, and the one that controls this is 'notificationPushRejected', which in your cookies is ips4_notificationPushRejected. I have it on both the PC and the Mac, which as far as I know has standard settings (and just checked my other mac up here, it has the same cookie and is standard). In the cookie window in safari it shows as: ips4_notificationPushRejected true www.basschat.co.uk / 16/02/2027 11:11:38 which I notice is a year away from when I opened basschat on that machine this morning. Quiting and restarting safari doesn't seem to change it. Yep, looking at the javascript, clicking the close box on the 'stay up to date' box writes the cookie ips4_notificationPushRejected with a timeout of a year + 100 seconds (no idea why the 100 seconds). Everytime there is a notification, the first thing it does is check if that cookie is present, and if so it doesn't put the box up and goes on its merry way. If it isn't present and you haven't actually had that box displayed to you in the current session it puts the box up. It seems like maybe somehow that box is getting dismissed without pressing the close box somehow?
