Red Onion Solutions dual loop switch pedal: Completly passive dual looper, with a passive volume pot on the first loop.

EHX Sovtek Big Muff MODIFIED: This is the black big muff, which has been modified with 2 extra tone switches and a 9v power supply has been fitted. a great sounding distortion, very much more versitile than the usual, plus it has a bright blue led, always a plus! again, boxed and mint. £45 shipped Artec ADL-2 Analog Delay: Little known korean boutique pedal manufacturer has produced this completly analog delay pedal, with TRUE BYPASS!

    [quote name='stanton119' post='42518' date='Aug 7 2007, 04:16 PM']I have quite a complicated set-up and occasionally get electric shocks from anything in the set-up that is metal. I have a mixer in the centre, and attached are as follows: 1. Bass 2. iPod, in dock connected to separate mains supply 3. Laptop, connected to different mains supply and ethernet 4. FX pedal in FX loop of mixer 5. TV, with freeview, ipod, and n64 attached. The shocks usually occur when im in contact with two or more metal things attached to different parts of the set-up, i.e. bass strings and metal laptop. What should I do???[/quote] Thats some kind of set-up........ Is this for gigs????? or is it your bedroom?

Pretty savvy in my opinion. If you consider them separately, I think what he earns from his craft itself is still pretty modest considering his very considerable expertise. If he's doing well, it's very much deserved. If you play as a trio, then £250-300 for the band will get you £80-100 each.[/quote] blow pubs and clubs...... corporate is where the money is....

    [quote name='BassBunny' post='41361' date='Aug 4 2007, 06:58 PM']Tim, According to the specs they will only handle 200W RMS, so you would blow them up pretty quickly if your mixer is 600W per side. They really are only suitable for vocals as they only have a 10" driver. Something like this is closer to the mark. [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Class-d-CD128-500watt-RMS-speakers-bands-dj-PA-audio_W0QQitemZ190136952711QQihZ009QQcategoryZ23794QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZwItem"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Class-d-CD128-500wat...1QQcmdZViewItem[/url] Or if you are di'ing bass and miking up drums, try this.

They are excellent value for money.[/quote] Ah.... you may not blow them....... depends how you use them..... Generally you would use a larger power amp to drive any speaker so you don't start to introduce any distortion into the signal path... just be careful.... I have to agree that these would be no good for the size venue your suggesting. you will be better off with 15" drivers and 3-400 watts.... For the record I used a pair of Class D tops once........ absolute pants.... sounded dreadful.

    As is with any Pa system.... It works for a specific task..... I wouldn't say they are crap but then again if you expect to get the same sort of volume and sound quality as you do from 15" drivers..... think again..... Ideally these are suited to those more acoustic type acts....

    [quote name='Omen' post='30366' date='Jul 11 2007, 05:33 PM']nope. It's a direct PC to Guitar. The SR1000 EFM is active.[/quote] Doesn't matter..... your still gonna need some sort of front end pre-amp..... or buy a small mixer with decent gain on the mic/line input... better still get a dedicated audio in/out device

    [quote name='Omen' post='30346' date='Jul 11 2007, 04:58 PM']Hello good people (yes, i stole that greeting!). I come with a problem, so here comes a chance to warm up those muscular brain tissues of yours. I'm playing an Ibanez SR1000 EFM jacked up to the PC and using Audacity to record with. The sound is definitely coming through because i can hear it! But the problem is that it's way too quiet. I've tried going into volume control and boosting the Line In, but that just makes it louder through the speakers, not the recording. Anybody know a solution? Cheers.[/quote] Are you not using any sort of pre-amp/channel strip?

    [quote name='dave_bass5' post='29290' date='Jul 9 2007, 08:02 PM']Hi Guys. Im sure there is info on here about this but i wanted to get it all in one place if i can. We had three gigs this weekend at Holiday camps and the rooms were quite big with nice big stages. I was sure i would have enough power for these rooms but i was struggling to get any low end out of my UL212. In fact my sound at two fo the gigs was terrible. lots of mids but no low end out front. On stage the sound wasnt too bad. While i realise the stages were the problem i want to know whats the best solution for getting more low end out of my cab and in to the room. Would a Gamma pad help? I dont want to start using chairs or crates but im willing to use a pad or matt of some kind if this would help. We seem to be doing a lot of wooden stages now and while my UL115 was fine the UL212 seems to have a hard time producing the lows. Thanks for any suggestions.[/quote] S'funny..... I play on wooden staging all the time and do not have any problems with bottom end.... my setup is an eden metro combo..... sometimes use a 2 x 10 ext cab

    [quote name='ped' post='29148' date='Jul 9 2007, 03:56 PM']My best mate Dan lives with his uncle Simon Lebon from Duran Duran and he told me an interesting Bernard Edwards story recently. John Taylor, from Duran, was using Bernards stingray to do some recording recently. the bass is all origional, the same strings and everything that Bernard used. They sound really dead and pretty nasty if the truth be known, but there is a vibe about them which John liked. He went out of the studio for a min and came back - the engineer had put some new strings on the bass because he was finding them dead and so on. John went mental and said 'Where are the origionals' - the engineer had CUT THEM OFF and discarded them. John went mental again.[/quote] It was also said that Bernie never changed strings...... I remember reading somewhere that when he was interviewed about his set-up.... the interviewer asked him what strings he used..... and Bernie replied ' whatever came fitted on the bass'...... Bernie is one of my all time bass hero's

    [quote name='Dragonlord' post='28129' date='Jul 6 2007, 10:42 PM']+1, I've never had a problem and I've bought LOTS of stuff from abroad. And, at that price difference, I'd rather risk it a little, after all it's only gonna happen once every several purchases. I don't know how flexible they are on the prices at the Gallery, anyway it sure isn't good advertising for them to post prices that are +50% of other european stores. Maybe they list them so high so that, when they cut you say 10% you think you're getting a good deal, when you're still getting them much more expensive than you could. BTW, wood and tronics is a small store, when you order from bigger german stores they usually pick it up for free from your home if something's wrong in the first 30 days.[/quote] No wonder the industry in this country is on its knees......

    you could always cut the centre coil out of the speaker and see if its burnt...... but then the speaker would be useless anyway
