Downunderwonder

Ime the same sound jockeys that are insistent on a bass direct are the ones that goose the lows and decimate everything but a bit of clank. So I make a point of having them listen to the sound on stage before having them listen to my post EQ signal. My sound is very tight, staying out of the way of the kick drum. We don't want that thundering either. It's even odds on the drummer getting up and removing the mic and just kicking the hell out of it when needed.

One way to find where best to put your sub is a very simple experiment. Put it where you want the biggest bass ie the middle of the dancefloor. Play a bass heavy track and go around the room to find the best booming position of the available wall spots to put the sub for the show. Put the sub there and it will thump back where you want it.

Your blonde tele must be feeling very left out.

Given the state of it I would fill it with a piece of black card and call it good until caving and doing a refinish.

£280 plus shipping is still getting on for double the NZ price. Ask your tech about fitting the bits and bobs to put a balanced DI on you amp.

I don't think a 20dB pad is nearly enough for putting on the speaker feed.

They are massively gouging on the price. 325 NZD with free shipping here.

Easy for most desks to roll off the highs. Your SC is more flat response than most cabs. Your other option is to mic the cab. Expect a lot of pushback from sound yobbos that never did it before and expect doom. You can avert most of it by being hyper organised with your mic and stand so you are ready to go from your mic to their DI XLR in or just the lead, before they go messing with your lead to amp.

Eh? The 85 has two inputs. One for speaker signal and the other is your usual DI instrument.

Mangled more like. "The proof of the pudding..." is abridged.

Countryman 85 DI. So long as your amp isn't noisy your amp signal will go through to the desk with no drama. Best to have a flat respsonse full range cabinet.

How do they go on tonsil tongue massages?

My eyes always prefer a good contrast to a close match. The OP teal and slightly different teal gets away with it.

Work out in what way? Pub, don't need it, kickdrum just needs kicking. Small club, mic up the kick, happy days. Big club, have to be a double 18 single sub and everything else mic'd, or a low key night.

Sounds like it glitches out with a limiter from time to time. Otherwise fine if it's what you want.

100 dollars per ding.

Looks like a proper oldfangled station wagon Honda? No jappas like that here these days, it's all 'SUV' bollox.

Why such a big cab for monitor? You could get a BF Super Compact and backpack it in with a pedal board, a bass in each hand.

Aye, this is a very gassy thread.

Well, it wouldn't be legal to leave it in the car.

What's with the cab that can wobble most venues on their foundations? I'd be travelling lighter and using a collapsing hand cart.

An hour would be ok by me if there was proper pay for the gigs and the rehearsals became relatively rare.

Most likely because the laundry list of ingredients doesn't include butter?

I could, but I am a fellow black goes with everything kinda bassist. The OP's suede number I could go for, but I will see out my year of no GAS.

Neither in your logic. So why was Trace included? Which is it, dead or budget? It never died, it ain't budget.
