Around £300 with shipping and vat - pretty good for a very entertaining pedal

FS/FT Dingwall NG3 5String (upgraded with Dingwall P Bass pickup)
Woodinblack replied to adithompson's topic in Feedback
Could do if you could say whos feedback thread it should be on? -
I was listening to random 70s stuff the other day out on my walk, and this came one - Gladys Night, Midnight train to Georgia, not the sort of thing I would normally spend much time on, but maybe it is just having earphones on but the bass really powered out of the track (as it does on this recording). So I thought I would try it!
-
So they buy a neck, take it apart, refret it, and rewire it, and then somehow run the wires from the neck across some gap in the neck pocket into the body - really? Wouldn't that make it a little delicate? So for the one in the OP there are 21 * 4 connections - 84 possible connections although I guess if you are doing it like a matrix like the one in the link, you could get away with 21 row lines and 4 column lines, and if you were putting the electronics for the rows in the neck you could reduce that down to a fast serial link, but you would still need power, ground, clock and data, and if it was serial it would need to be sheilded well from the pickup (you could certainly pickup the electronic noise in the darkfire)
-
I guess they assume that if you want midi in your bass you want to look as cool as someone with a keytar!
-
You really can not look at it - I have it as a help and tend to look at it during the break time for the bit back from the chorus. If i try to read as it goes along, I get lost. Its just there as a backup
-
There seems to be less of an issue with them, it is true Really depends on your eyesight and how quiclly you refocus. I have a 10~" iPad which I use, it has the lyrics, the start note (sometimes it completely goes out of my head) and I also do the sound on it (it runs the synths too, but I don't need to see that once it is set up). That is certainly good enough, although you also ideally need a footswitch page change thing. I have a really cheap bluetooth thing that does it.

Sorry to hear about the end of your tour, surprised you didn't get to hear about it first but I assume he wanted to make sure it didn't leak out before he mentioned it, quite good to actually deliver the news in person. I do love that building though, did a convention there and it is a really good building.
-
Thats what he says, but frankly I am not convinced. I don't think lobsters sound like that. Got it, but my collection of HB basses is 2, and 2 others that I have played, and they were all chonks. They were all pretty good though, I must say. But already a bit over booked with basses.
-
Obviously not much - i don't watch hist stuff because of the lobster thing (and the fast chopping breaks between the sentances), I was just referring to the weight - as much as I don't like the gimmicks or the voice, I believe him if he says it is 10.4lb
-
That is what I would expect from HB sadly

Should be done as well as it can be. -
My piano teacher when I was a teen was Mrs Clutterbuck, no slap piano in her classes.
-
Maybe put a bit of a gap and the end so it doesn't just stop like that?
-
Or about 0.8 cubits per moment, if you prefer it in older measurements.
-
the ecc83 is a dual triode, the el84 is a high power pentode, ignoring an incompatibility in pinout, if you put a EL84 where an ECC83 is supposed to be, half of it isn't going to work as there is only one circuit in it, and they normally use both. On the plus side, nothing is really going to go bang!

Move my old log in name to my current name
Woodinblack replied to BassAdder60's question in Site Issues and Questions
It can be done, its just not as clean, nice and supported as if the account hadn't been deleted, which is kind of the point of deleting an account! Leave it with me, I will have a look when I don't have a pigeon sitting on my arm. -

Woodinblack replied to BassAdder60's question in Site Issues and Questions
Indeed, although it would have been easier to just rejoin as the last account and change your name. Assuming that there is evidence that you are indeed the same person (I haven't looked yet) it should be easy to attach your old account to your new account (although it might be easier to attach your new account to your old account and rename) - not sure what happens about points though -
The nylon coloured suit - why did they ever die out for bands heh?
-
Its very necessary, that is what provides him with an income. Isn't that the point of being a professional musician? He also does lessons on various places (scotts bass lessons etc). he has a few albums and yes, he can play in a normal band where it isn't about him. Olympic runners - whats the point huh? you can go faster in a car and can they even go for a walk like normal people?

Wireless IEMs: Xvive U4 & alternatives
Woodinblack replied to Al Krow's topic in Accessories and Misc
Thats because the video is delayed to match the latency of the headphones -
Wireless IEMs: Xvive U4 & alternatives
Woodinblack replied to Al Krow's topic in Accessories and Misc
I don't think that latency is a design concern of headphones for use in listening to music - it doesn't really matter if the music comes at you 200ms later, if that is all you are listening to. -
Wireless IEMs: Xvive U4 & alternatives
Woodinblack replied to Al Krow's topic in Accessories and Misc
Absolutely love mine, ok, they are only mono, but the quality sounds pretty good, they are easy enough to use, and now my X18 has a 5GHz router, it all works well. It did take the default X18 wireless out, but then most things do, so not really surprising. They are also pretty cheap. Obviously there are a lot of things better if you can pay more, but they work well for me, I am certainly not looking for anything else at the moment. -
