Wrap Party - Movie themed rock covers band- works better written down.... need to explain to most folk it's not some sort of Hip hop thing

I owned one for a wee while and loved it. You wouldn't know its on, but yet you can feel it being on. Not sure if that makes sense, but hopefully it does! I only sold it on because space was at a premium so I went down a different route. I ran my comp at the start of the chain though, so dunno how it would work at the end like the OP wants.

To be fair , getting a couple of equivalent 8ohm speakers for that set up might be still reasonably economical.

I go bass > small pedal board centred round hx stomp as preamp/cab sim. This then feeds into an 11 quid passive DI box- thomanns own brand millenium di-e.. then straight to desk. Simple set up. For monitoring I use a beringer ma400 headphone amp and KZ zs10 iems. Apart from the actual pedal board itself, everything else is inexpensive but excellent on sound, functionality and quality !

That looks immaculate! I don't know the TE model history.. completely oblivious to TE up until i got this one. might need to do a bit of research as they're seems to be alot of variations out there! I've no clue as to whether mines or yours were low, mid or high range when new, or even the eras they were made!

Won't the internals speakers be 4ohm? If not, this would be a great shout.

I've got a cheapo thomann passive di velcroed to the underside of my pedal board. My preamp is a stomp and that doesn't have an xlr out so its handy having a di there. It gets used quite alot for other things so it's really quite handy!

I've been tempted to go down this route. Having a wee active speaker like this could have multiple uses!

Aye, I rarely have the need for an amp - 99% of my gigs are IEM's - I'm a big lad so I don't mind moving my TE about every so often, but weight is a definite consideration if it's something you will be carting about every week! I think we'd really need to know you budget to give you better advice. The extension amp for your gk is £350-£400, so if that's out of your budget, I think you'll struggle to find a good quality, lightweight but loud set up for less than that, that's much better than your existing GK.

Buy that off your mate. That's an upgrade to your gk combo

The aristocrats then iron maiden

You could always wait until an old trace Elliot 1x15 combo appears on marketplace. I've just purchased one for just over 100 quid and it's unbelievably loud and sounds incredible. It's maybe not a sexy choice but for price vs quality don't think there's a better option.

Would love to hear any stories from the folk that posted in the thread in 2017, if they've sold their unsellable basses!

If you like it If you like the sound of your current set up, then this is exactly what I'd do! If you're needing more than that at a gig, then you're likely going to have a PA which you'll be running through anyway! That would be an outstanding rig.

You've probably seen this kicking about the classifieds for a wee while for not alot of money. Over the weekend I decided just to take a punt on it. Got it delivered today. First impression is that its HEAVY. I don't think I've ever owned a combo this heavy. But.. it sounds tremendous. Had it in a rehearsal this evening with 2 guitarists playing rock covers and it more than easily handled it. Clear, defined, punchy but has incredible bottom end available with just a tweak of the EQ. The size and weight will probably mean this will only get whipped out when it's really necessary.. but for just over 100 quid, I highly doubt you could get a better giggable amp. Very happy with It.. so much so I'm tempted to hunt down a matching extension cab to get that wall of TE.. for this special occasions.

I've always wondered about this. I would find an eq quite handy on the output, as I know my speaker set up is not particularly accurate! I know I could get a hardware eq, but having it inbuilt would be very handy! The Roland rubix range does not have this.

Wherever there is space! but my set up is only a pedal train nano+ so if there's no space for that directly infront of me, then i think we have bigger problems space-wise!

A wee teaser!

My band, Wrap Party are putting on a wee show in Glasgow, 29th April. Rock covers band playing all the big rock songs from the movies! Should be fun! Why not come along, and still get up the road for dinner!

Cheers! All great ideas, but it was all under our noses the whole time. Sticking the tunes into individual playlists, making the android display size 150%, and then putting it in landscape makes a huge difference! It's exactly how we want it now. Cheers for the input folks!

Excellent! Looks good! Cheers

You're on fire! ha! It's better, but not ideal. Ideally the control buttons would take up the majority of the screen. Any app we've tried likes to allocate the majority of the screen for artwork, which is ashame, even on landscape. But it's definitely better than how we've currently been working it!

Yes you can! Never thought of that, and it works! Great shout! Cheers

Hello! My band have introduced some backing tracks to our setup. It's the usual set up, click to the left into the drummers IEMs, track to the right to FOH. This is controlled off of either an android phone, or an android tablet. The music player we use works fine (music player plus) apart from two things. The control buttons take up a tiny bit of the screen, and it doesn't seem to allow us to stop autoplay - it just goes onto the next track unless we stop it manually. I've tried VLC and a few others, all seem to have the same issues So, anyone know of any apps that do these two things: Allows us to play 1 track without it going onto the next track automatically, and has a GUI that has play/stop/rewind buttons which take up a bit more of the screen to make it a bit easier to control on the fly?
