I enjoyed having mine but too heavy for me to want to carry it everywhere

I would say the others were!

Can't you just use twotone sheeting, like this sort of thing https://www.amazon.co.uk/d-c-fix®-Sticky-Plastic-adhesive-346-0356/dp/B005DKTGOI/?tag=googshopuk-21&hvadid=309889582779&hvpos=&hvrand=494127037676983566

You don't - posts get locked when they are done (by adding sold / withdrawn / traded in the title) unless there is an error then you report it and ask the mods to sort it

Nope, you are right. Bass, treble and centre have a detent in the middle which is the mid way - so one side of the detent is cut and one side of the detent for all of those controls. The other one is the mid frequency, which as you say has no centre position, so this is right. That one being the bottom of the 3rd knob from the neck end.

I have a pair of ZS10s and a P2, although I don't use the P2, I let the drummer use that (as he isn't moving anyway). I use the XVive, it works for me ok.

Is this a thread that you had commented on, or one you were following, as I get notifications of anything I commented on, even if I unfollow. I guess it shouldn't be that way

Take it apart, clean the beer out - its sticky and conductive.

I guess "affordable" and "budget" are in the ear of the beholder!

Well, that is a terribly polite version. More pop goes easy listening. Technially well done I suppose but a bit lifeless compared to either the original or the more well known Nattybruge version!

His acoustic bass section was certainly good. Although the 80s was starting to a look a lot like home!

Personally I would just get another neck that was already fretted, mainly because it is just a lot less faff than fretting something. Save the neck in case you want to go back at some point.

I wouldn't expect a bass I bought to be setup how I wanted when I got it (unless I had asked for that), but I would expect it to be playable.

Well, this helps a lot to start with: https://github.com/deezer/spleeter

We did one pub every month for a year and a half (then covid came along). It was handy in that it felt comfortable, it had people that knew us and we could try out new stuff in an familiar environment to see how they worked.

if the audio is before the beat why would you want to advance it, or is this just me misunderstanding your use of advance here? So (for my clarity) in your DAW you have some data you have put in by hand (that you call the audio) that is on the beat, or the reference, and then you record by playing that out and playing along with it from a keyboard, where you would expect 20ms input delay and 30ms audio delay but find that the recorded midi is in advance of the audio? In which case the only two possible reasons are that the computer is deciding you have this delay and shifting it by this number forward, but the numbers aren't right, or you are playing in advance of what you hear (I have this really bad problem for doing that unless I concentrate). Not sure about cubase, havent' used it for 20 years or so, but is there any auto correct in there for midi input? Oh yes, checking the web, there is an 'auto correct for latency' in the audio system, maybe something about that?

I have been looking but I don’t have an android phone so I am currently not able to find a way of reproducing it. Is there a specific page that it will work on, or a specific phone / version of android? (I assume it is specific, there are hundreds of android users here and I assume only a subset seeing this?)

Maybe they used to be smaller - I am sure I still have a bag for one somewhere, unless I added it when I sold mine. Glad you like it but safe to safe it wasn't the best amp i ever had!

Handy to know, I saw that but didn't know if it was any good. I had a £66 bow from bass bags in my basket currently

i had one of their bows in my cart, but now I look it is only available on bows over £150 which seems reasonable but I am nowhere near the £150 bow level yet, so I guess I will have to get something cheap to find out if it is something I want to do, and then if it is I can get something better

No, obviously they are into the music as well, but they also want the whole package, sleves, lyric sheets, and the general tactile feeling of a record.

I don't think it has anything to do with that. People who buy records (AKA vinyl) are enthusiasts in having a thing. People who buy CDs just want the music, and now streaming is the way of doing it, so there is less of a need for a CD, plus you can often download it from the website when buying now, if you want losless. The CD doesn't have any advantage over the lossless download (I buy CDs, rip them and then listen to that).

Where on earth do you do that? The only places I know of are online, and they certainly don't do that. I don't believe there are any shops within quite a way of here that will do it.

Yes, so it is sort of like you have had to have somethinng to know what it is you don't like!

Love Cats. OK, not a tricky song, but its my first on the big standy up bass!
