Nux Mighty Plug or the Pro version are fantastic - plug straight into your bass, headphones plug into the Nux. You can then steam tunes/backing tracks to it via Bluetooth and play along to them. There's loads of amp/cab and effects models built in too. -
I love them, I use them mainly with a 5 piece indie pub covers band and we run a silent stage with everything through the PA (bass and guitars DId and e drums) and they handle everything brilliantly. Every now and again I get a hankering for a sub, but this is usually when we've not gigged for a while, and as soon as we gig again I realise it would be overkill for the venues we're playing. I've not tried an outdoor gig with just the 935s and no sub, but I've never felt they lack anything for an indoor gig. I've only gigged them in linear mode and we have them pole mounted.

A real revelation for me was moving to a thinner, more flexible pick. I've always been a fingerstyle player, but have tried briefly a couple of times over the years to play with a pick. As it's a bass I thought I needed a really thick inflexible pick and never got on with it, and stupidly never tried anything else. Recently again I needed to use a pick for a couple of songs and I think on the back of something I read on here, I bought a multipack of Dunlop picks. I've now found I get on best with the orange .60 and particularly the red .50 ones. I'm still rubbish with a pick, but much better than I was!

Korg Microkey 2 with 37 keys. Excellent USB trigger keyboard, used with a PC and an iPad until I realised my keyboard playing skills were probably more detrimental to the overall sound than anything! Good condition, £35 delivered within the UK. -
Tourtech small pedal board with soft case, holds ~5 pedals. Dimensions are 500mm x 135mm. It sits quite close to the ground, so I've added some slighly higher feet to accommodate a power supply underneath (these can easily be removed though) and have also cut a slot on the underside to allow for easier installation of the power supply. In good condition, with 3M velcro attached. The soft case is great - nice amount of padding and a really good size side pocket. Looking for £25 delivered within the UK. -
Carlos is a great guy to deal with, thanks for a very smooth transaction!

NUX Melvin Lee Davis NBP-5 - this is a fantastic preamp with separate drive function and also has an optional cab sim/IR loader that can be applied to either the 1/4" output, the DI, or both. Sweepable mid frequency control for fine tuning. The inbuilt drive is great too - has it's own footswitch, good range from subtle to full on, and has a blend control to mix in your unaffected signal too. Comes with aux in and a headphone jack. More info here on the NUX site. Boxed with instructions and original rubber feet - currently has 3M dual lock on the back. Great condition - has been mounted on a board and kept in a case. £90 delivered within the UK.

Disaster Area DMC Micro midi controller - updated to the new V2 that can display text for patch names. Perfect for controlling Source Audio pedals/Hub, Strymon, Eventide, anything with midi basically. Amazing versatility in a tiny form factor, and even better now that you can name your presets. Boxed with manual and in perfect condition - has been mounted on a board and kept in a case, comes with 3M dual lock on the back. £100 delivered within UK.

How long do you think the one you haven't played for the longest time has sat untouched? I'm curious whether you try and get round them all, or if there are some that never get used?

I think the original was so named because it combined an analogue cab SIM and amPLIFIER.

That's amazing! Great work!

Drummer's hihat/snare side as a few others have said.

Could you not just soundcheck and save that as a scene, then pull all your FoH faders to zero bar 17/18 and save that as another scene?

Wireless system - Lekato, Boss or something else?

I've used the WS90 for about 6 months now with zero drop outs or other issues, they're a bit bigger than I was expecting but perform brilliantly. That's alongside a guitarist's Xvive guitar wireless and three Xvive monitors (though they're all 2.4GHz), plus the router for our XAir and all the audience's devices.
