[quote name='Machines' post='927917' date='Aug 17 2010, 07:39 PM']Looks like our humour eradication scheme is going well, excellent ![/quote] You have to admit it was funny. Don't you?

It's all about EQ.

Marcus Muller has brought back a much needed sense of humour to the forum.

[quote name='CHRISDABASS' post='926995' date='Aug 16 2010, 10:12 PM']hey when using an active bass ive never had the input volume past past 12 o clock without the clip light lighting up Passive basses will obviously be different and allow for more input gain is it ok when you bring it down a bit and push the master volume up to compensate?[/quote] I'm pretty certain the clip light wasn't doing that before it was serviced. I sent it off because our sound guy kept saying the DI was noisy. MB said they couldn't find anything wrong. I'll give them another call. Cheers for the advice, fellas.

Ideal for playing sole music.

I'm the first to defend virtuoso players, the reason why Tal pops up here is because she is [i]not[/i] a virtuoso and yet inexplicably gets gigs that are top level. I expect to see a incredible bassists alongside Chick Corea, for instance - imagine going to see Chick and expecting Garrison, Wooten, Feraud etc etc and getting Tal plodding along instead. Her playing is IMO far below par for the people she plays with and it is to the detriment of the music as a whole! It'd be like going to see the John Mclaughlin trio in the late 80's and finding Adam Clayton standing in for Kai Eckhardt![/quote] I seriously think it's a good job Tal Wilkenfeld isn't on this forum, as I'm sure she might be a tad offended by your comments.

Might be Tal.

Sorry, seen it before.

You look familiar. Did we not meet over a sunbed dispute in Tenerife, 1998?

It's bloody good.
