Yay, pedal! Ooooooh, prices.

A pair of Alto TS or similar should be about right. My hard rock band has been using an Alto system for about ten years. 2 TS115a tops and 2 TS118a subs. It's not the RCF that my indie band uses, but it's enough.

That amp seems to have 6 outputs on the back, which were you using? For the future, with your markbass, just use the normal di output and it should be fine with nearly all mixers. If it ever is too loud then use the pad on the mixer.

Last night I had my first ever paying gig as purely a soundman. A friend of mine is in a band that was hastily put together to play one of their other friend's 50th birthday party. The entire band were amazing musicians, but they have about 4 gigs total experience between them. I was asked to come along and provide some direction and a lot of plugging in advice as well as sound duties. Rig for the evening was an Allen and Heath desk, Martin Audio PA, lots of Sennheiser vocal mics, an e609 on the guitar amp, Radial stagebug on the bass, and whatever drum mics the drummer brought.

Had a work colleague who went and said it was brilliant, no idea if he specifically saw your band but I'm going to just imagine that he did!

In that situation I'd be keeping an eye out for an Ampeg B100R or a GK MBE.

Well I can't comment on the jack cable paragraph but I do appreciate the ebay link thank you. I also know what I've done wrong now, I thought the pedal standard was 2.2mm inside barrel. Oooooops.

Perfect! Thank you. Although, quite where that was when I put exactly those words into the search bar on Amazon I'll never know! Thanks again.

Hi all. In my office I have a wall wart that powers a multi effects unit. It's all standard Boss-sized plugs. However, the cable isn't long enough and it isn't a right angle. Can anyone point me in the direction of either an extension cable (female to right angle male) or just a female-female coupler that I can use to join two other cables I already own please? Every time I look I end up on patch/signal cables, rather than power cables. What I want is either of the pictures, but for Boss-sized power cables and not signal. Thanks in advance!

Out of interest, which angle was which camera?

Well in terms of intended use case it might be a little different, but practically you've got a pa cab that you're sending a lot of bass guitar to and bits of other things. All the same rules, best practices and limitations still apply as if it was a monitor.

It's not complicated at all, what you're describing is just a monitor.

Apart from a few rare exceptions I have only used my cabs as traditional wedges. It gets all the bass we need as well as the other things that I need to hear.

I dont have the Triton anymore but I have the Cordial CIW1 and it's great. You can get a lot of DI in something the size of an adapter these days.

The answer is Subaru Outback.

For the record, with a digital mixer you can record each track individually. As in, you could mic up and record all the drums but just not put most of them through the foh.

You might google 'qsc protect mode 4'. I've got a thread on TB, but it's bitten a few people. Free fix if you get it before hand, otherwise you're shipping a speaker to qsc in Buckinghamshire at your own cost then waiting weeks.

Stuck record alert: update the firmware!

You know, that's a valid point. I wanted my pair of speakers to be able to be a spare pa when needed, but if it was just for monitoring on a stage I would have gone for the 10.2. Hell, to be honest if I'd know how infrequently they'd have been either pa or room-filling backline I might have something from Thomann own brand or similar. Covering the tiny stages I play with enough bass to be heard is surprisingly undemanding.

K12.2 here. Normally mine are proper wedges, connected to the mixer rather than my bass amp. I just keep it in the standard 'default' setting but I do use the hpf in the mixer. I start at 120Hz (as that's where our subs cross over and I'm usually close enough to hear lots of sub) and go up and down depending. Very rarely, when I do use it straight from the Helix as backline, I set a 50Hz hpf on the Helix and hope for the best. Whilst I'm sure that the 10.2 are slightly different, the traces of the K12.2 in its various modes can be found on Pro Sound Web. If the 10 is anything like the 12, then the bass amp setting is no bassier than the default one, in fact it's slightly flatter. Oh, and update your firmware. Those speakers can brick themselves!

Fifth, root, fifth, root?

Ah, I see you're unaware of how he runs the company. Allegedly. The contents of this post are the opinions of Jack and should not be taken as representative of the opinions of Basschat or All The Good Names Are Taken Ltd.

Ahhhh OK then. Well there are several threads on he covering what you describe. The term you want is FRFR. I think the Thomann stuff (branded, 'The Box') and the Headrush are well liked in the budget space. Side note. Be a aware that tone changes a LOT with volume. Unfortunately you can't really set your tone at home then just expect the knobs in the same position at the gig to sound the same.

Nonsense. Plenty of people on here, myself included, like to pretend that this stuff is complicated but it isn't. Buy a small Ashdown or TC electronic combo. Maybe a 12" or 15" if you can carry it. Just play.
