Hi All, any tips please on how to do the above. I have separate audio files on my iPhone which I want to put into 1 playlist to play automatically one after another like a cd . Cheers

Many thanks - that is very helpful and I really appreciate your advice and time. I’ve bought a Keeley compressor so like you say I’ll see how I get on it as an introduction. Cheers

Many thanks everyone- very helpful.

Looking for advice please. I’ve never been tech savvy and only previously used a bass effects module in a very limited way when live. Currently playing in a jazz and jazz fusion set up using an AER combo. What do I need when switching from finger play to slap ? Just a good compressor pedal? Happy to pay up to mid price range, but not sure I need top end. Thanks

Hello everyone, hope you’re all healthy . A few months and a few small gigs on from my post, and loving the amp, as are the other musicians! However, I still miss a bit of zing, so any recommendations please on adding an extension tweeter ?

Hi, thanks for replying. Yes, the band use chord charts. I can walk to a good standard off the charts, but I’ve always been a stronger reader and a weak busker and I’m getting bored with my lines! I’ve found the Ed Friedland walking books helpful , as well as the talking bass YouTube stuff. I’ve just bought the Paul Chambers walking in the footsteps of sample transcriptions. I’ m being a bit lazy as I don’t have the time to spend many hours listening and absorbing the styles of the greats, and some transcriptions of at least some of the standards would be great. Cheers

Hi , thank you. Yes, on the floor , and good point about tilting, I’ll definitely do that ( just not tried that yet as it’s heavy for its size of course and it’s feels a bit silly sticking a bit of crappy wood under to tilt - it looks lovely without ! ) I previously had a Hartke wedge and before that a Mark wedge, so your tip will be a good help. Cheers!

Thanks to everyone who replied re my post on which combo to buy . I went for the AER in the end. I realise I need to experiment until I find the right sound for me , but any quick tips please to shorten the wait! I’ve used it for a couple of rehearsals (trio) and one gig ( 4 piece) - both no drummer and jazz standards. Whilst the guitarist says it sounds great, I’m only hearing lovely deep bass but no zing on g and d strings above 5th fret. Of course, I’m only a couple of feet away from it , so the old chestnut of what you hear doesn’t mean the audience hears the same. I’m using a Sire 4 string. Cheers!

Hi, the transcriptions to study the authentic feel of the original versions ( or a tasteful cover version).

Hi everyone- I’m looking for parts for the old standards- the usual sets played by small bands in pubs. Has anyone got a library /pad they could copy/ send me for educational purposes please ( happy to pay a reasonable fee). Or recommendations for a good fake book with accurate / interesting lines. Cheers

Hi, any recommendations please for an app that will store parts for use in set lists for gigs? Thanks

Hope you’re all healthy and happy. I’m just after views please on best combo for jazz, with versatility for function work as well. Nothing too big, or heavy in weight, or with massive power - sufficient for small venues. I don’t mind top end prices, equally happy with low price if known to be suitable. Cheers!
