    Hi Philestein, the trace cab sounds very interesting, but I don't have any trips up to Lincoln area planned for the moment so don't think i'll be able to get it - shame... If I head up there (went to uni in Lincoln so would like to visit mates!) i'll let you know. Cheers for the offer! Dave - guitar sounds interesting. Would be very handy, as unfortunately we have more guitarists than bassists here! Are you based in Bristol? are you ever in the Surrey/London are? Cheers, Ben

    I'd be possibly interested, dependant on how working it actually is right now. If theres a few crackly pots, thats not really tough to sort, but if theres issues routing between busses or any fully dead strips thats more problematic... Just checking as well, does this have 'flip' on each channel (to be used as an in-line mixer) or is that just the 24/32 versions? Cheers, Ben

    Thanks to Jim (Floyd Pepper) for coming over to the college and donating us some bits of kit! We now have an Ibanez Soundwave bass guitar and Ibanez practise amp to add to our music department. Cheers Jim! Attached is a pic of a student rocking out on the bass

    Yep il be at work then, so can meet up easily at whatever time is good for you let me know when you've had a look for the stuff. Cheers

    Sounds interesting, if we can build a bass from some leftover bits that'd be brilliant. Let us know about that neck

    Fantastic, ok, well i'll be in contact next time i'm heading into London - should be within the next few weekends, if thats ok? I should be able to bring a bass case along with me, otherwise shall just be gentle with it in transport on the way back down. Cheers for the great response so far

    Guitar stands are also handy, yep. If it keeps going like this we might have enough guitars to fill them! Ahpook - cheers for the reply. I'm occasionally in London at weekends and could arrange to meet somewhere at some point suitable for you? An acoustic bass would be fantastic - especially as one of their courseworks is to do put together stripdown covers of modern full band rock songs. Whereabouts in London would be good for you?

    Sounds pretty brilliant. Cheers! The aerospace business park is just around the corner from the college so thats pretty much perfect from that standpoint. Just let me know when you've had a look. Thanks again! Ben.

    Sure yeah keep it open. So are you likely to be around the Farnborough area very often at all?
  11. bennifer
    Hi guys, Might be a bit cheeky but was wondering if anyone has any kit they want to donate to a college? Could always do with a bit more kit, and i'm willing to drive wherever to pick up any useful equipment. If you've got something you want to donate give me a PM and i'll fill you in with more details! Thanks to Jim (floyd pepper) for his donation of an Ibanez Soundwave bass and practise amp! Cheers.

    Possibly take this on payday at the end of the month. You travel near Farnborough during your commute? Just off the M3. Ta. Ben

    [quote name='cheddatom' post='599952' date='Sep 16 2009, 10:27 AM']yeh but I don't think this desk has inserts on each mic channel?[/quote] This may be true, oops - well if it does have inserts on each channel, they can be used as direct outs... if not... then no

    [quote name='cheddatom' post='593763' date='Sep 9 2009, 12:21 PM']ta for the info, it's not for me sorry! Good luck with the sale.[/quote] Bear in mind that the inserts on any desk can be turned into direct outs with a TRS jack with the tip and ring wires shorted together. It provides passthrough of the uninterrupted signal through the insert point, plus an unbalanced split output into a recording device or whatever. Same function can be done using a patchbay.

    You'd have to be careful plugging them into an amp, as you said these are active monitors (jack/xlr input). You wouldn't want to plug a hifi amp's power output into these. They are more suited to attaching to the balanced outs of a mixing desk or audio interface.

    regardless of confusion over spec, what a shame - i wish i'd seen this! should be a gorgeous bass and slap bang in my area too! enjoy it.
  17. bennifer
    too true, they were brilllllliant!
  18. bennifer
    Where abouts are you based?
  19. bennifer
    i'll take second dibs on this in case boo drops out - can pop over and get it whenever
  20. bennifer
    Gosh, what a great deal. Really wish I hadn't just finished uni and had no money! Lovely desk.
  21. bennifer
    Thats a bizarre, but very cool coincidence. I might well have to pop over and try it out, with my Trace Elliot head, if thats ok? I've had mixed results with Ashdown cabs, but a band blew up my Trace 2x15 and frankly that cab was a bit big for me so yours might be perfect - more portable and cheaper than replacing the speakers in my big cab. When are you normally free?
  22. bennifer
    Where abouts in Surrey?
  23. bennifer
    Ok, cheers guys. I'll give it a go at 5.3Ohms in parallel, and see how it sounds. I'd assume that the speaker receiving 66% of the power will be the 8 ohm one, with the 16 getting 33% ? If its awful, i'll just go back to it being a 1 speaker cab until I can grab another 8 or 16 driver. Cheers, Ben
  24. bennifer
    Yep, but i'm useless at performing mathematical calculations myself, I kind of dropped that after GCSE Maths and am not sure quite how to apply the equations correctly anymore. Like I said, I did look at the link to the calculator program, but its Excel based, which I do not have...

    Hey, just trying to work out impedance with two different speakers im putting into an old 2x12 cabinet. At the moment its got one speaker in it, from a Fender guitar amp. This speaker is 8ohms. Just inherited an old combo that has a 16ohm Eminence driver in it. Im not too fussed that theyre unmatching, and it might sound a bit rubbish, as im just using it as a basic cabinet for bedroom practise, but i'd like to have the 2 drivers in it rather than its sorry 1 driver situation as of the moment. What options do I have for it, if I wire in parallel or series? I would run the calculator thats on the wiki, but thats in excel format, and I dont have excel nor a use for it at any other time... To summarise, what are my options regarding overall ohm rating of the cab, combining an 8 and 16 ohm speaker? Cheers for any help Ben.
