  1. Don't. Your brain doesn't actually hear properly in stereo so you need twice as much volume in the in ear to make it sound the same as it would with both at half.
  2. Several misleading posts made so far. A FRFR cabinet means it reproduces the signal it is sent faithfully within the expected passband. The preamp and amp may do same with the signal from the bass or add wonderful tone. Most solid state amps are very faithful at the amplification to speaker level stage. The aim is that the player's monitor sounds like what he expects to hear out in the room. The identical signal is sent to FOH with the expectation they will treat the room EQ before messing about with the bass feed to make it fit. So many people get it backasswards.
  3. Rolls make one that isn't square but it is TINY, like you would mistake it for a box for spare fuses.
  4. It's been awhile now but when I first came over it was a stupid battle to find the buttons to get what I wanted, forums, rather than the latest post of the latest blab on every damn thing.
  5. Careful what you wish for. A back lit knob with the marking on top becomes a black blob in a circle of blinding light of you do it wrong. Looking at you Trace Elliot.
  6. Afaik any and all could use the feature. Only used the BDDI and Deluxe myself.
  7. And yet Sansamp Drive increases gain or the whole thing would never have kicked off. Geez Louise you can sure twist an argument.
  8. There's still pro sound guys using analog desks?
  9. Backpedaling much. I thought the IEM stuff was touted for giving everyone a custom mix, given enough channels. That's what he wants. What's he is actually getting is the question.
  10. Maybe, maybe not. It's all up the wazoo as to what he's doing.
  11. That's not what you said you were doing. Start again.
  12. Technically your engineer is correct. There could be latency differences between your two signals. It isn't at all clear how you accomplish your blend of engineer's Ch9 monitor mix and your Ch10. I wonder if there's a whizz bang desk that sends you a mix that only has your ch9 in it, just for you, because you're special, and the engineer resents having to T it up.
  13. You entirely missed the point. Most of us know what gain is by definition. We also use the term the wrong way so you'll have to get over it. Gain as in "moar rawk" without an increase in volume, was the request.
  14. @Tech21NYC hell ya! The bain of soundmen's existence solved in one fell swoop. I can't believe it took until 2023 for this to happen.
  15. You can't really go wrong with it last before the DI. Anywhere else you run into possible interference with the following fx. Of course the interference could be welcome as a new flavour or better flavour. You might decide to install two! Sending a HPF'd signal to FOH is never a bad idea.
  16. Needs a poll added.
  17. They didn't help themselves by using a super high signal level at the interface so you could only use them with GK combos with matching output. Generally if you are in the business of selling bass combos there is no economy in selling the same thing minus a bass preamp stage. By the time it was in the market it would be selling for the same price. In a parallel situation Quilter got the idea to supply a bass oriented power brick from a Talkbass talkfest. Same idea, BYO preamp. By the time the design was formalized it was able to take a passive bass and had some EQ, because that's what people want when you can have it for the same money or very nearly.
  18. Is a very good spec if it's true. It's only a little shy of what your average "1200w" speaker will handle.
  19. Yeah, me, and probably most of the geezers like me I would have thought. Sometimes I accidentally click on that titsonabull "mark forum read" button right next to the forum link and my heart skips a beat backing out of it. If I have read I have read it. If I haven't I haven't. Wtaf?!?!
  20. Yeah, we all know. But what about the newcomers? They will post new threads in Amps and Cabs even thinking they are already there when they went in. Why not just put it in Gear next after A & C and never need to tweak it again?
  21. Specs say 15cm depending on surface reflectivity is the minimum operational distance. One wonders if a face at 15cm triggers it on or not. Length of mic plus maximum control distance required = operational distance required.
  22. Actually, I was looking at the NZ offerings. I guess there's a link in there somewhere to shop in English and £?
  23. There is a cheaper one that only does dynamic mics. Curiously also PB-05
  24. Not that I can find with their dodgy search facility. Optogate, nada zip zilch. Microphone gate, likewise.
