Old Mesa Diesel 115 EVM cab... upgradeable?
Downunderwonder replied to Jaybeevee's topic in Amps and Cabs
Try the two together for giggles. Should have enough low end and might sound good enough for rehearsal purposes. -
Old Mesa Diesel 115 EVM cab... upgradeable?
Downunderwonder replied to Jaybeevee's topic in Amps and Cabs
Before doing anything else get a high pass filter on the case. That'll let you get a heap of 60hz on your low B without breaking it, by not having to cut bass on the EQ. Night and day difference with vintage gear ime. -
Boosting level flattens out our hearing relative deficit in the lows. See Fletcher Munson curves. An EQ pedal that you kick in for solos which has a level control will let you boost as subtle as you like. Or you could pluck harder closer to the bridge and that might be enough.

Making a neck from Oak ? OK or No Chance ?
Downunderwonder replied to Waddo Soqable's topic in Repairs and Technical
Same as plywood has advantages over a plank, chiefly much more stable. -
Two reasons. Ducks float. Worms come to the surface to avoid drowning underground. Some get washed into streams making for good duck food.

Must be highly 'progressive' metal if you can get away with a single 210 cab. The reprobate meatheads I am used to would point and laugh at the weenie bass amp.

Pish!

I have a bow which is a piece of junk. Add to that it is mind blowing counterintuitive when a clockwise shift gets you a lower string instead of a higher one, being the violinist from way back. I suppose I should bite the bullet and order a "cheap" carbon one.

If making it big in Norway while singing in Maori is sign....Alien Weaponry. They went on a metal festival tour of Scandinavia and found the audiences singing back to them. Te internet for the win.

Won't matter. The old Trace used XLR speaker cables which were specific because of the male and female connectors, but the 1/4 didn't actually matter.

Fun fact. Titanic had a sister ship that sunk a UBoat by ramming it when it had to come up for air.

The Aluminium/Aluminum Double Bass **Mega Thread** :)
Downunderwonder replied to Beedster's topic in EUB and Double Bass
It's to ready you for being on TV. -
Approximately 4dB worth would be missing in the push comes to shove condition if your cab could take it all. Dunno what the Mesa does into 8 ohm but peak probably enough to stretch it? Say it's the whole 600. 120 tube watts is 120w with extra harmonics relative to lows.

Is a SVT Pro 7 supposed to hiss this much?
Downunderwonder replied to Marcus Cornall's topic in Amps and Cabs
Post the pics anyway, some of us are locked up at home with a nasty virus, too weak to leave the couch, and too cheap to pay for Netfix so scouring photos of amp gizzards counts as entertainment. -

I am sure the fine folk who worked out which cap remains you found will be equally dead against you doing any more than removing the cover to take a photo. If the cap location can't be seen DO NOT go removing anything from inside to get a better look!!!!!! We would rather you left that to the tech who is going to be much happier if you have left it alone. -

Downunderwonder replied to Marcus Cornall's topic in Amps and Cabs
Nobody else noticed your rattle report. You didn't come back and nobody bothered raising it again. So you're lucky I don't like being ignored!!! The foundation of forums like this one is folks giving free help and getting the satisfaction of problems being solved. Without the back and forth all you have is a forum full of "what's the best bass for.." threads and cat videos. You're welcome, happy to help. DUW. -
Again, newbie was talking about a 100w reactive loading DI for recording.
-
I think you might be talking about attenuating the hot DI out when newbie was considering a speaker substitute load, which could lead to a very wrong conclusion if he wasn't all that bright!

I wouldn't expect output from a power stage that's had a capacitor go MIA. Maybe have another look through the preamp schematic? -
High pass his monitor send and it will be all good. The loop is guitar monitor guitar, doesn't matter where it starts from only that it is cut off.

My eyesight improved and I can make out VAC so it's definitely something electronic... -

Downunderwonder replied to Marcus Cornall's topic in Amps and Cabs
Hopefully it's random junk but it is kinda looking like an electronic part with code so worth another go. The camera is picking up and focusing on texture and writing on your background rather than the item itself. Can you trick it into the right plane of focus? -
Even when ratings are comparable you can blow up a cab. You would have less loud knob rotation left over than you would with a 200w amp but that's what your ears are there for, not your eyes.

99/100 that's the acoustic guitar or something ringing at an octave up from you. It might be set off by you, but it's not you.
