  1. that's odd isn't it. The behringer one has two sets of outputs (ie 4), 2 inputs, 2 thrus, and two high pass with a 100Hz cut - not sure why it is fixed at that, as the low pass has a variable but I guess there are reasons
  2. if you can get them into a conversation about the proper use of a box junction you can just sneak out while they are arguing.
  3. Was going to post it worked for me before the RCFs, then remembered my 12" sub is a behringer with alto tops. Still worked fine though
  4. I think just drummers and bass players care
  5. Not that I also want to get into this, I am sure someone with your afore mentioned skills can work out the ULEZ has nothing to do with global emissions and everything to do with the environment of people living in the area covered.
  6. Get it right, as long as basschat doesn't enter a box junction that it can't exit due to stationary vehicles then yes, it will be fine!
  7. For me, as an actual pedal (I agree the Boss Katana Go was good, but not really a pedal!), it is probably the Boss ME90B. Really flexible, great sounds, very simple to use battery life for ages, great to gig with. I have gone back gigging with my Mod Dwarf, because I need keys which it also provides, but I do miss the flexibility of the Boss, and maybe when I sort the keys out, I might go back to it, it certainly does all the practices.
  8. Pretty easily I think, I mean I sing backing and a few leads as well, but there are lots of singing bass players.
  9. It said 'bass players trying to join cover bands, get a life!!'
  10. Love the look of that - if I played 4 strings, I would get one of those in a heartbeat - love those pickups
  11. I'll come back to this, because it occurs to me that this is one of the daftest things I have heard on basschat for a while. if it was a 'thought crime', why did he need to be there? Why wasn't he arrested in his house for thinking about doing this? that would be a thought crime. no, he was arrested when he was doing something, that is not a thought crime, it is a crime of an action, like, pretty well all other crimes. If he had a problem with abortion like he assumably did, he could protest anywhere, which is perfectly legal, but he didn't, he went to the one place where it thankfully has been prevented, amongst a group of people having really bad times with their actual life where he felt his views were so important that he needed to go and try and make their days worse and stick his opinions down their throats.
  12. No, this is an agenda that you appear to be pushing, but it doesn't make it true. I am sure you were equally outraged by just stop oils arrests (oh, you seemed to trim that one) So if he came round your house, stood in your living room silently and refused to move, you would just accept that as he is 'just standing silently'. No. I thought not. You can pray anywhere, god apparently doesn't have a range problem. Yes, he wanted publicity at other peoples expense.
  13. The law is that he was restricted from being there because people go there to harass people who have to go there. He was asked to move, he didn't. He was told to move, he didn't. He refused to move against a police order to move from a restricted place and he didn't. He got arrested and fined. I don't see anything unreasonable in that. If he wanted to do 'silent prayer' he could do that anywhere, he didn't, he wanted to harass people, luckily people have protection from that now.
  14. Indeed, after having an order knowingly breaching a safe space order and then refusing to move on after being requested to do so. So we let people break the law because we agree with it or because it furthers our agenda? In the same vain that some just stop oil people were jailed for silently protesting.
  15. Seems very specific to only bass players?
  16. Nowhere near as complicated as using excel (and a lot cheaper obviously), go to your internet router, select VPN, select on, put a username and password in and press apply. Hey presto, a 'Real' vpn!
  17. l can make a true VPN and also have a pair of pigeons, maybe I will try too, although so far can only manage a semaphore system with cable ties, and only if the recipient is sitting in a box n the upstairs hallway!
  18. I used to do phone networks, so we had to do vpn tunnelling through many networks to get to the machines which were mostly in other countries in protected network providers. Doing it on windows, you just need putty, on a Mac / general unix you just use OpenSSL but have to type it out. You get pretty fast after you have done it a few hundred times! obviously these days most decent home routers have a button to switch a vpn on
  19. yes, a true VPN, very simple to set up in a few seconds. Anyone could set one up following simple instructions. Not quite sure what you think a VPN is if you think there are 'true' ones?
  20. Know the feeling - was going to have a big december, but one gig, then the private party on the 14th cancelled (fair enough) and the next day the NYE gig had forgotten we were playing there so no NYE. So that is all bad, but then a local club had a cancellation on New years and another one had a cancellation today, but our guitarist seems to have a hand problem so we can't do those, so nothing to the end of jan. I think i need to find another group to play in as well, this is getting quite common.
  21. If you have (or can get) a multimeter, put it across the centre connection of the volume pot connection to ground, change the volume from maximum to minimum. At maximum is should be less than 10k (depends on the pickup and the pot), and at minimum it should be zero. If it doesn't go to zero, the pot or the pickup isn't grounded, if it goes much over 10k the pickup wire has probably come off or the pickup is broken
  22. how can you blacklist a vpn? Anyone can setup a vpn server on any machine, and it doesn't even have to be a static address.
  23. Actually seems not too onerous, one contact person to talk to, and a system to take down illegal things quickly, which we pretty well have.
  24. yes, as mentioned, I removed it try off topic first then you should, I reduced the requirement
