3 lost already 😂 -
This is how i see it. IF it has the sound of the BDDI, it will be a good update, especially as it has Chorus and comp as well. Id love to get a programable BDDI but they dont have the MKII Mid control, which i really liked in the BDDI KMII. Looking at it, it seems to have a mid sweep and Q, maybe more like a cut down Q-strip than the old BDDI, which elevates it even higher for me.

Personally i think this will sound fine. I don't think T21 would bring something out that they would ruin their reputation. As for analogue vs digital, once out of the bedroom i cant see what difference it will make to anyone. This is 2026, are we still having that discussion 😂
-
Started and finished ? 😬
-
Yeah, at the earliest. And who knows what the price will be if Trump hasn’t calmed down 🙄
-
Wow, at that price I’m game. Looks like a long wait so I’ll get on with life for a few months lol.
-
Saw this earlier on my feed. I’d love one but can’t imagine it’s going to cost less the £600, at the least.

78mm left to right, 122mm back to front (as you say). about 37mm high at the highest point, not including the knob.

Brough a Gooseneck off Andy this week. Couldnt have gone any smoother. Even though i was in no hurry he made the effort to get it to me asap. Top block. Cheers mate 👍🏻
-
Yeah, exactly what we have started doing at work. Its just very frustrating when a customer says they have done everything required, looks fine at their end, and all they have done is added 3mm of white space instead 🙄. We call it Canva ping pong.

I use the D’Addario 45-107BT and for me they make a difference over the standard XL’s. it sounds strange but to my fingers it makes them all feel as if they are one. no big jumps between sting thickness, tension, although obviously there is. I was worried 107 would be too thick, but it feels natural next to the other strings in this set. Could be a placebo effect, but the end result is i find my basses more of a pleasure to play, so job done in my book. Not the be all and end all, but given a choice ill stick with the BT set.

Even better than Canva, but owned by Canva, there is now Affinity. This is also free and goes way beyond Canva. Even has a vector graphics mode. All base don the old Affinity programs. As a side note, i work for a printing company, and Canva users are a nightmare. Ok if you know what you are doing, not ok if you think you know what you are doing. Bleed a crops? What all that then? 🙄

The presets do to have very similar names between the Pocketmaster and GP-5/50. It's obvious they are using the same tech, just different implimentations.

Just noticed this. Looks quite cool with those direct access buttons on the top. https://www.sonicake.com/collections/multi-effects/products/smart-box

I have one of those cables that i occasionally run in to a P2. You could also use the headphone out with just a standard stereo jack cable.
-
How would you adjust the volume from the other side of the stage or away from the mixer?
-
This guy demonstrates the pitch shift. The sound seems to change a bit but I’m sure you could use EQ to help with that. At about 8mins 10.
-
And this is why i said ‘most desks’ in my first post about this. Ive had maybe 20+ desks over time and not one would allow headphones to be plugged in to a send jack and get a decent level.

Sonicake Pocket Master just arrived - nano size effects processor for £50

I got one for Christmas, but not really got a use for it. I brought the new Valeton GP-50 just before Christmas and also have a GP-5. It seems quite similar to the Valeton stuff. I like the form factor, although not keen on the on/off system. -
Yeah, things have got better, but these days some are more inclined to throw the cable over and expect our drummer to do it. He likes doing all that stuff and it takes the pressure of me.
-
When we first got our XR18 there was a band member that couldn't figure out why he couldn't plug his mic in to it. The cable was already in the XR18 but the mic end wasnt right. Yeah, he had first plugged the mic cable in to one of the Aux sends, and it took him a couple of mins to figure this out. Get this, he even moved the cable to the next Aux send to try 🤣. This is one good reason why ive put labels on everything.

To be clear, when ive used the term IEM above, im talking about the earpiece's only, not a system that would amplify the signal. Genuinely cant see how a line level signal can power the earpiece's or headphones, but if people say they can i cant argue with that.
