That is power put to the speaker, if they were running flat out with a constant signal. so the only way that would be the source is if your system was 100% efficient which is impossible. You are putting far less power out in volume, but using more input than a 1:1 to input power to output power. Seems a lot - how many liights do you have? ok, that is a better way of working it out, so about 800W for that?

That would be flat out with a sine wave or something going through it. Chance are it would be a 10th of that. However, for a gig, two PA speakers, mixer, pedalboards, its going to add up, especially as gigging in the cold will be less than that total value. Its going to be a 'how long is a piece of string' question, that depends on your setup. Set everything up through a power measurment plug and play for 10 minutes, multiply by 12 and see what you get!

I haven't had those but I am one for buying synth pedals and not using them, so this would be right up my street

and on the ME90B

There is a gig we play in a semi permenant outdoor area next to a pub. A tthe weekend the guitarist was getting shocks through his guitar, but the worst one was last year when we were there when it had been raining, the guitarist sat on the floor which had a puddle on it, and then when singing got a shock to his mouth (which stopped him singing). I have tested it with a tester, it says it is fine apart from the voltage being at 209V (and having 1v N-E), but it certainly isn't right there.

Keep an eye on the DJ then!

I guess that means you need to define what a typical 5 is. I mean my rick 5 is exactly the same width as the rick 4, wheras my typical 5s are between 60mm and 70mm at the bridge where I know a lot of people have crazy wide basses that are almost 60mm for just the 4 strings. I really don't believe that your hand manages to fail to work properly with 10mm extra width.

They really aren't. As presumably a 4 is compared to a 3 string bass?

I was thinking of making a small battery powered pedalboard based around a valeton GP-5, and maybe a tonex one.

Pointless started in 2009, so you could have seen it!

I just use it for a couple of songs that need gang vocals, so everything all the way up. Normal bvs I don't use anything

One of those got sold at the last bass bash!

My critical mass has been my only vocal pedal for years. Mine sound great.

Sign me up! Well, I had a Kay, it was about the same thing.

Not particularly, but as a fact it has a very good.. well, its currently an F# but it was good when it was a B! But I would say, as above, the best B of all was the NS bass B, with a bow.

Songs for the next week are: Slipnot - duality Creed - overcome Sum41 - in too deep offspring - kids aren't alright weezer - pork and beans and hashpipe muse - unravelling first couple are tricky as I don't actually know them, last one is tricky because, well, it just is!

Is that word Woooahh?

Many of the effects have an output level, so if that is up the main output is going to be loud, mine is the same bypassed at about half volume

thankyou, thankyou, I would like to thank my parents and.. umm.. <cough> access to the admin control panel for my success here today!

Maybe it's 20 replies to the same post!

Its the superstar badge. it is apparently awarded by posting your 20th post in 2 forums. But clearly people have done that and noone has the badge.

There is - it is site questions, where you can mark an answer as having solved the problem.

Yeh, its gone up since I bought mine, crazy the cost of living IMG_9101.mov
