Thanks guys

No idea on the midi player yet. Was hoping someone could advise on one they are using , I may have to buy a laptop and use a DAW

Hi big red , thanks, I'm just looking for a home practice tool that can be used on a duo setting that can play midi files , I was thinking of buying a midi player and using an alesis sr 16 as the drum module, I don't need anything fancy,

Hi guys, I am looking for a rhythm solution to play percussion backing tracks if popular hits, Is there a good way to buy midi tracks and play these through a drum machine then into the PA ? My laptop as busted and I have an old windows desktop that can be used to download midi's, Can I use and old sequencer ? I'm not looking for ultra high quality sounds Thanks

Welcome Mate ! 1978 was a good year ! ( I was born in Mitcham Hospital ) There is always good bass's for sale over here in the Uk and along as postage isn't a problem you can source one from here, MTD Kingstons are very comfortable and a good weight Happy hunting

Hi Guys, Can someone measure their DI Box as I cannot seem to find the dimensions and thought this could fit on a Pedal Train Nano https://www.studiospares.com/microphones/di-boxes/active-di/studiospares-di-boxpreamp-458190.htm Thanks

I just saw an advert for this https://pjbjapan.com/product_basscubpro_top.html

I have a gk mb800 , clean and loud - 500w at 8ohm There is always a bargain in the classifieds

I found the + wire to have an exposed core close to the battery cavity area, I tested for continuity between the outside of the battery casing and + and - circuits but nothing The snap connector is on order so hopefully early next week I can plug in

True, Replacing the dodgy connector with a rigid one and new wires will eliminate any chance of a closed circuit in the connector. It was a cheap connector and after inspecting the wiring it was the only thing that was suspect Not sure what else can cause a closed circuit

Hi Wood Yes to the Barrel Jack Test, I had a loose wire in the 9v snap connector and I have ordered a new one and inspected all the wires, so hopefully this will sort it

Hi everyone , I am currently stuck - I changed my Barrel Jack for a " like for like " switchcraft brand and now have the dreaded battery drain. I put a brand new battery in and within a week it was dead I have since bought another jack as I thought it was the problem but I have the same issue as I am getting a voltage across the jack without a lead in place I have a Bartollini NTMB+3 https://bartolini.net/wp-content/uploads/Docs/NTMB_Wiring.pdf I have tested the jack on the bench with a lead and it opens and closes the circuit as it should As soon as I solder the jack into the bass I have 9v between the + of the battery and the - of the jack without a lead inside the jack ? The preamp sounds fine and works as it should I have jack with contact cleaner but no luck Does anyone have any experience with this or know the next item to test ? thanks

I can’t wait to feel the sub on the 11’s 👍
