  1. I replied to that weeks ago. Nick Huge doesn't seem to have been here for a while.
  2. The files on page 1 with "text" in the file name are descriptive. The files with "score" in them contain the notation. These open with a regular PDF viewer.
  3. When you click on the name of the PDF file, a box should popup asking you whether you want to open or save the file. Your PDF viewer should then do the rest when you click in the box. They're there - I've just checked. Try the Foxit reader, available from here: <https://www.foxitsoftware.com/pdf-reader/>
  4. Quite how we've gone from FRFR cabs to Trappist breweries is a mystery to me - but that's the beauty of Basschat!
  5. And those cu. ft. thingies. Aren't they something to to with Henry VIII's feet?
  6. There's definitely no market for Gregorian chant cover bands in the pubs down our way. And we all know you can't buck the market.
  7. We have no wish to sully our art with something as trivial as chanting, thank you.
  8. I have to admit, the demand for Vivaldi tribute bands is not what it was.....
  9. t's not going to happen. I'm still trying to get the band to play songs that were written this century. I don't think any of them know what in-ears are.
  10. With a 12" main driver, the ideal crossover point is between 1.2 and 1.5kHz, which is where the driver rolls off off-axis. Anything up to 2kHz will be useable, but above that and you get a dip off axis because of the way the bass driver beams at higher frequencies.
  11. Please bear in mind, guys, that we don't all have 10kW PAs with sound engineers. Some of us gig mainly in places where our bass rig is not only our monitor but also our audience sound. The monitors in my band are mainly so that we can hear the singer.l
  12. I wouldn't call a cab FRFR that crosses a 12" driver over to a compression driver at 3.5kHz (according to the spec). As soon as you step to the side, you'll lose all your upper mids.
  13. It's an observation that those asking for advice about equipment would do well to bear in mind. The "I own one therefore it must be good" response it fairly commonplace around these parts. On the passive/active question, I'd say it is perfectly possible to engineer a passive flat response cab that performs as well as an active one with DSP. But you need to start out with very good components and not stint on the passive crossover/shaping circuitry. Nowadays, it's a lot easier, and probably less expensive, to do it with DSP.
  14. Voice coil size is just one way of seeing through the exaggerated claims made by manufacturers of audio gear. As the technology currently stands, a 2" coil should handle up to 200W, a 2.5" coil up to 300W and a 3" coil between 350 and 500W. There are other factors involved apart from voice coil diameter, but I wouldn't be confident using anything smaller than 2.5" (unless it's in multiples) for bass backline. Your TKS 112 has a 2.5" coil, by the way, Funkshui. (I'm talking bass drivers here, not compression drivers)
  15. This isn't WAV, but it's very good quality nonetheless:
  16. Sorry to hear that. Looking on the bright side, you may have learned one of the great life lessons: "know your limitations".
  17. The key specification in that very nice TS210 cab is the bass driver voice coil. It's two inches in diameter, which means it should realistically be rated at about 200W.
  18. Not interested in the cab (although it sounds really nice), but your band is amazing! You are really lucky to be playing with a drummer as good as that.
  19. I did this with a Yamaha - changed the Jazz bridge pickup for a Duncan Musicman pickup (Alnico version, MM something). It worked really well, but only when wired in series - otherwise it was a lot quieter than the P-bass pickup. It was a much better combination than with the Jazz pickup. I tried a Delano Musicman first but didn't like it at all.
  20. You're welcome. Just send me a PM when you're ready.
  21. I've had that before. It's something to do with the photo server you're using. You should be able to edit your post and delete the http text.
  22. If you're ever in the Dorchester area (you're not a million miles away) I can measure the T-S parameters of the Epifani driver for you. By the way, this thread is still ongoing. We're working away in the background to finalise the lightweight version of our 12" cab. Watch this space.
  23. I thought you were looking particularly trim, Phil.....
  24. https://sbsav.co.uk/shop/44811-krk-rokit-rp6-g2-amplifier-module-amp-pcb-board.html They also sell spares, but by the looks of the amp you should be able to use caps from any reliable source. There is quite a lot on YouTube about fixing these, including this one which may be of interest:
  25. Overhang normally doesn't bother me. But given the clash of colour schemes, not to mention the sideways logo, and I have some sympathy....
