Interesting to listen to Joe's (1st name terms) sound in the 1st 10 seconds.

Thanks both, just as well that the Radial ProRMP studio reamp box went above my maximum bid!

Thanks. I guessed as much, but my guessing has historically been flaky

I have some stereo Neutrik jack plugs from the days I used to run balanced lines out of my Mackie desk on jack sockets. I no longer need these. Can I reuse the plugs and ignore one of the tags so that I can wire ordinary instrument leads in mono?

Good plugins are lush. But I do not have them. I suppose I could spend the money on plugins instead of a Re-amp box. However, I just fancy trying it. The Radial stuff look fine and dandy. I can see the playing through an amp to get that interaction while recording thing as well. However, I am a bodging guitarist at best and have to glue together so many takes to get a passable sounding track that making my wife listen to 3 hours of loud amp would go down like a bucket of cold sick.

Is anyone, and if so what are you using? I can cobble together a guitar part in logic but it would be nice to give it an amp sheen. TIA

I sold a bass to Norway (hi if you are reading this). Customs in Norway told me that CITIES said they could destroy the bass if I could not prove it was the right sort of Ebony. I don't think I have ever spontaneously sweated like that before. I eventually proved that it was the right sort of Ebony, but that is the last time I will do that. On a side note the courier managed to break the bass, but the insurance coughed up full whack eventually.

I am hugely looking forward to seeing him in London with his own band on May the 25th. I do realise that this is a thread hijack. But I do not care and it will be back on track before we know it.

Not to detract from the Bassy Goodnes, but Nate Smith is a complete machine.

Sparkly Organge. I can see the attraction.

I used to run a 3Kw Chevin power amp with different preamps. Headroom is where the tone is at.

There is no denying it, a £1.5K bass with no shielding is sub-optimal.

>setting up is uber fast That is a super bonus!

I figured it was Alembic-ish. Ta.

Non SWR 1U?

Duuuuuuuuuur. Such a recent thread as well. The shame! But thanks.

I have a bunch of hangers on the wall. I fancy a change. I am thinking an 8 bass/guitar stand in a cupboard. But I am open to ideas. What are people using? Some nice long but shallow drawers look cool, but are mind bendingly expensive.

We bought some nice QSC active wooden cabs at work. The KW112 is really very nice. I got very excited about plugging my Hellborg preamp into the KW118 (1Kw 18" active sub)/KW112 combo. I was expecting to be washed by waves of LF goodness. It was massively underwhelming.

Hubba hubba!

Phil Lynott.

BAN THIS SICK FILTH!!!!

FWIW I have bass with two Smith type pickups. I have two push pull vol pots. I never use the "weaker" settings. I always fall into the trap of having the most options. And then I find the beefiest settings and stay with it.
