    Just all round easy peasy. And exquisite packing.

    Buy yourself some of these. It is the same thread on the bolt - this accross multiple makes and ages. I did 10 mic stands at church this morning. Everything is now super easy. Obv the stands have not been used properly, but then, as soon as any member of the public get their hands on mic stands, we know that boom arm tightening doobrie is the first thing to go if they are not dog bone tighteners. £2.55 each and they now support themselves like those pricier K&Ms that I should have bought in the first place. Happy days. https://www.thomann.co.uk/km_knebel_komplett_schwarz.htm

    Neural Quad Cortex

    Owen replied to redd's topic in Effects

    So, I bought a Nano Cortex on here. I have chucked various nice preamps in. The pitch shifter will go down an octave and seems very happy to hit G on the E string. There is a 9 band EQ which can tidy up stuff for me. I can even take examples of my Hellborg Pre and my Fender TBP-1 pre if I can be bothered. I can see that the grown up version does a lot more, but for me, this is a beautiful thing.

    But is it my best purchase? No, that was the Eich Bass Board. It is a total game changer.

    I have had one of these for nearly 30 years. I would not be without it. When it eventually breaks I will buy another. Unless I go first. Mine is a Ruxxac.

    I just watched the Flea/Beato interview where Flea bigs up M'eshell Ndegeocello for her absolute distillation of the bass line so that what she plays is driving the song to the max but not drawing attention. He put it well.

    The older I get, the more I see bass as a percussion instrument that has pitch. I went to a gig last night and all I could think was "Bassist! Calm down and lay it down!!! No one wants to hear your pentatonic noodlings". "And while you are at it, tune the instrument".

    I must admit that playing an Eb neck has me keeping well clear of that end of the neck. If the bass is one you will keep, fashioning a new nut makes a lot of sense. It can sit on the present fingerboard.

    Digital desks are great. But sometimes it is good to have one knob per function all laid out logically. And that analogue tone, maaaahn... Mackie 1202 VLZ Pro. 4 mic channels, 8 line ins on 4 x stereo channels. 2 x aux and 3 band eq. It will come in a tatty but functional bag - £95 Mackie 1402 VLZ Pro. 6 mic channels, 8 line ins on 4 x stereo channels. Same aux and EQ. And a much nicer bag. And faders. £120 Sometimes it is good to have the flexibility digital offers. Behringer XR12 in flightcase. Not really used. Bought on here because I NEEDED it. But then I did not - £135

    We live in the golden age of luthiery. Not joking.

    Feedback for MungoBass

    Owen replied to obbm's topic in Feedback

    David introduced me to InPost lockers. So easy! Why have I never used this before? And he posted a book I did not need, but fancied, and it is all good.

    I am 280 miles North again by now. But thanks for the offer.
  21. Owen
    Even if you are late, you are still welcome.
  22. Owen
    Thanks all. At £14 inc the power supply it would be rude not to. I was down The Drift last week Phil. It is nice down there.
  23. Owen
    Thank you very much. The obvious answer is to give her my tiny Mackie Desk that I do not use at all, ever. But something smaller with fewer options would be great.
  24. Owen
    I had thought of splitting and a P2. But I do not know if the P2 has enough gain to deal with mic level. Does anyone know?
  25. Owen
    Just that this is discontinued.
