Hypex made the modules and yes, they are still very much in business, so possibly an email to them might help too.

Before my life as a professional musician I used to work in IT. I also really liked advertising that I'd much rather have been doing music than being there, so I had a BassChat business card in my ID card holder. Imagine my embarrasment on the occasion we're all stood in a lift and my "i-have-no-social-filter-and-dont-know-when-to-shut-up" colleague spotted said business card, the letter B obscured by my lanyard..

Oooh!

YES! I always loved this theme - and the theme to The Bill. As a young'un I couldn't quite figure out what I was drawn to... but looking back, as a bit of a fan of prog, it was the 7/4 time signature of the main section! Oh and I nearly forgot the tone key change and then almost immediately back again later in the piece.

Absolutely brilliant in every way! What a fantastic idea and wonderful results! congratulations!

SynthMaster 2 by KV331 is free on IOS currently: https://www.kv331audio.com/synthmasterios.aspx - There appears to be a desktop version too but I've not tried that yet.

Did they have any more available? I’m not sure I’ll get much for my cat, but he’s already looking worried..

Well this isn’t helping my recent Spector induced GAS.. I think either the 4 or 5 would work very nicely in my purple world!

I would have loved to have been there, it looks and sounds liek it was a lot of fun and tehre's plenty of you I'd like to have seen again and, of course met for the first time! Maybe next time. Looking forward to seeing all the pics and vids!

I posted this elsewhere, but this site offers a (non-scientific) but very useful sound guide for each of the ear plugs reviewed, volume normalised. I found this very useful as I was able to pick up some cheap generic plugs that offered better speech intelligibility versus some that I have that seem to be more bass heavy. I have another set here that are really peaky around 2Khz, which is really fatiguing, so making sure I didn;t end up with another simialr set mean this site was invaluable. I have to say, these would be only short term use as all generics hurt my ears afetr a while and rarely sound as good as a set of moulded Pro plugs. Mine are 64 Audio, but I do have a set of the "Help For Musician's" moulded plugs by ACS through the Musician's Union too - highly recommended for busy professional bassists. https://www.hearadvisor.com/earplug-rankings https://www.helpmusicians.org.uk/get-support/physical-health/protect-your-hearing

Last night IK issued an update for their manager software, but the website is still shot to sh*t.

The Indonesian Cirrus 5 is indeed a sleeper! I have one here that is silly money for its quality. I think the previous owner gave it a fret job and the neck is skinnier than other examples I have tried, but OMG, dump a set of Pro Steels on it and that low B is extraordinary. @kodiakblair was it you who put me on to Gillian and her collection?

Sounds great, it reminds me of some of the bass-forward performances by Dil Katz, Dave Ball and Phil Mulford with Barbara Thompson's Paraphernalia with Jon Hiseman on drums.
