Much deeper than when I am playing it as I am an octave higher than that at that point (and ours is way faster!)

Well, by a day I meant 24 hours, which has occured now, but hadn't at the time of your post. However, I don't see any failed in logins, and you are here posting, so are you sure the username is correct on the other device?

I have never had to use the VPN since, it was just the first time sign on for that machine, now it all works fine

My bag has finally almost died with the zips, had it for many years. Does the TGI bag have room for an iPad? Ideally I want a bag that can hold a bass, an iPad, two wireless adapters, a spare battery, a multitool and an iPad holder (which is actually quite flat. What sounds best for that?

Timeouts are only for a short while so just wait and they will time out in an hour or so

My spreadsheet decided to not go to other instruments, apart from the chapman stick. I mean the keyboards don't have consumables, neither do the EWIs and the guitars, well the only one that has a non rechargable battery is the only one I have changed the strings on in a decade so no point writing those down or I would have to face up to the fact I have lots of guitars that I don't play!

I had gone down to see them at portsmouth guildhall in 83, my friends had said 'oh they are a bit like genesis', and I liked genesis so it sounded fine. They were nothing like genesis but I really enjoyed the gig, and still love script for a jesters tear.

I remember Sabbath, that was funny, I particularly liked their smoke on the water! Actually I say I remember none of it, I actually remember quite a lot, but maybe the music specifically wasn't important. I remember leaving without a girlfriend and getting back with one. I remember watching a guy a few tents away from us watching his bike go up in flames, then him spending the entire weekend rewiring it. I remember spending the last few hours in reading at the new Thames Valley police office, waiting to identify our stuff that was nicked from our tent and I remember the heat and parched land. But the bands, yes I saw quite a few of them, but I was never really one for listening to bands!

ok, so now it is almost 6 months since I sent it to them to be fixed, and when I have contacted them (or when I posted here) they have said they are waiting for a jack plug. So I wrote tonight to ask them to just send it back, I will fix it myself, clearly they aren't going to do it. Literally have never had such little service from any company. Even bax were better than that (twice). Going to go and unsubscribe from the lists so I don't fall for it again!

As someone who didn't at the start of the thread and now keeps track of some things, it occured to me that having something where I can make a note of when I changed the strings or the battery on a bass is actually valuable, because it answered a problem I had thinking when I had last changed a battery in a bass or which strings I liked - the strings on the bongo sound better than the strings on the ibanez - is that because of the instruments themselves, or is it that one of them is NYXL and one of them is the coated markbass, I think it is but I can't remember which one had which strings. One of the basses also had GHS Boomers on them which I was given, which one was that, and how do they stack up? Its not everything, the other stuff like keyboards I don't need to keep track of, I can see them, and they are insured

I have a Reface DX, which I used quite a bit for gigging as it was on the microphone stand, although later on I just went for sample playing as it was easier! Great little thing though.

ok, so I listened. First of all on a bass rig just playing round, I didn't notice anything. Going from Bass (Maruszczyk elwood) -> Joyo selector (battery) -> Katana Air -> good quality headphones. There is a slight hiss. quite a way down but definitely there. Connecting a cable between a send and return, and nothing in b send and return, at what I assume is unity gain, ie, in the middle and sounds the same as level as bypass*, there is a hiss in both A and B, which goes up in volume when you turn the A or B level up (it does get a lot louder than the original). Its not huge, but it is there and noticeable. I would have no problem gigging with it, and I seriously doubt you would ever notice it in that situation, but if you were recording it could be an issue, or if you are then going to some high gain overdrive or something, also it could be problematic. I am aware this is an active bass going into a wireless sender, but checking afterwards, going straight through (or even the Joyo in bypass) it is noiseless. * bypass is noiseless,

If it is the speakon itself it is easier to take the back of the plug and check across the wired terminals - there should be absolutely nothing measurable between them with it not plugged into anything. But if something has gone wrong, it is normally in the plug itself. Easiest way to test the speaker is to plug a lead in that you know works, then check on the back of the terminals. You can check the pins in the speakon themselves, but they are a pain to get to while you are trying to read a meter! Or much better idea, get a cheap cable tester that also does speakon leads, like the behringer ones.

There we go - a positive progress. I have made a spreadsheet and added two basses currently. Mainly because one, the battery has just died, so I know when that is going to be replaced, and the other one I bought last week! Hmm.. the downside of this is that putting it in a spreadsheet makes you admit how many you have!

Every time I restring a bass I think 'Oh I should make a note of when I did that and what with' - same with batteries. And I never do! Need to get better at that stuff. ok, starting next time I restring or rebattery something, I will make a note!

Not sure why you would want to keep a track of everything you owned! My stuff is all insured though, so I could probably search emails for serials for things I had, and I have a lot of photos of everything, but once I no longer have something I am no longer interested in it, so I wouldn't put any effort into it

Not that I have noticed, but I haven't listened that closely!

Well, quite rightly, they never got anywhere after that did they?

I like the new song, works well in an old Kerang way, maybe a bit generic, but very catchy. Didn't particularly get wowed by the performance I saw, but the sound wasn't great and maybe they need a tour to get gel together.

I did a rugby club gig a few weeks back, but it was actually a biker gig at a rugby club hall, so it was ok and a fun gig to do. We also go another booking from it - the band after us failed to attend (we were the 1st of 3 on the saturday and there were 2 on the sunday) and there were complaints that we hadn't been put on as the main group on the saturday as they liked us a lot, so we have been booked next month to correct that!

Well, you have to wait a bit, even the first batch hasn't turned up yet. They said 8 weeks, 4.5 weeks ago

Mines an OLP signature instrument. But not peach, most certainly orange!

Yep, if there is an image to accompany the words 'I take it too seriously', thats the one right there!

Sold Mike my Mustang bass a couple of months back (slow at these things) - sorry for not instantly recognising you (I did, but couldn't place where!). Trade with confidence!
