I suspect Zender was challenging Jay a little bit too much in a certain Acid Jazz band.

I've run all my EBS stuff at 2Ohm, I've had 2x HD350 and 2xTD650 - and not one of them has missed a beat. Thats running 4x 8 Ohm cabs. I guess it's down to luck - but I do regularly remove the dust etc.

The keys player is great, it's Jack Conte - you may recognise him from Pomlamoose. I reckon he's on a nice little earner now and can do music entirely for fun - I suspect his financial worries are taken care of considering he is the CEO and co-founder of Patreon. If you believe google, he's currently worth a cool $5 million.

Aren’t the bits beginning to smell? Remember, don’t fk with cats on the internet

And they still not pinned that murder on you?

Ped, I can lend you a big colourful brolly and a clipboard so people can follow you round if you’d like...?

Why would there be a basschat stand? Am I missing something?

I’d prefer to have something that didn’t need hitting with a mallet to be honest

I was including the design costs in that comment.

Tricky situation. Nothing to add I'm afraid but am sorry for the situation that you have found yourself in

Well, it depends if they've sourced and bought their parts from Maplin... in which case, £100 is a snip.

More than ever. Here cometh the millennial revolution. Out the way boomer.

As long as you've got gay cowboy circus master on stage with you, I don't think people will notice your legs. PS no offence intended. Snowflakes please disregard this post.

@dave_bass5 Thanks again for the LUTs. I've been looking at that new 360/4k/Leica mod camera. Looks to be a nice piece of kit. Will look forward to seeing the footage from it. Slight reservations over the file format and the included software but time will tell I guess. That Leica addition is a nice touch though - although is it case of just dropping the Leica name into the game? Can it really deliver the good? What's next? The Hasselblad GoPro? Or maybe they'll be on the phone to Mamiya?

Yes - body weight does impact fit.

They are getting better then!

Did they have you talk and not use a bite block?

Yeah, I've never liked their little fiddly menus. For most people though, I guess they set it up once and then forget about the settings and just start and stop the thing. Ah thanks for the LUTage. I shall have a look and see what I can achieve. I've got some camera recording to do in a proper lit environment, so I'll look into given them a whirl with some of that footage. Yeah, I keep saying to him theres a compromise to be made. He wasn't DSLR performance and DOF, in a small package, with low light performance, with superb sound via external mics. It just doesn't exist.

Ah yeah, I never thought about setting between the NTSC/PAL - I merely asked the drummer the question, he scrolled through and said there was nothing there... which there won't be if he was in the wrong video mode. I'll read up on the manuals for the drummers GP so I can set what I want on it (and set it back post gig so he doesn't get peeved with me when his subsequent footage is all grey and drab). As always on a gig, it was literally 20 seconds breathing space to set everything up! I have just realised when I was reading your response that I had typoed above. I'm running 24fps (or more accurately 23.97). Doh. Always interested in having a look at LUTs - there's some good ones out there... but I find the majority are pants and money makers for "influencers" or whatever you call these YouTube types. My other drummer mate is in a Max/H8 dilemma at the moment, shall check out this Insta360 and see what that's about.

I just wish there was a GoPro that did 25fps to get rid of that digital look and look a bit more cinematic. The bulk of the above is at 25fps obviously but there is only so much GP you can drop in before sync issues become obvious. Re: profile. Ah thought as much, my GoPro is pre all that, I've heard of Protune - was talking with my mate about it (he flies drones) - but obviously he got a lot more bandwidth to play with in higher light levels. Naturally, I guess you know that I'm running user profiles on the DSLRs so I can grade and subsequently LUT. Yeah - my experience of GoPro footage in low light is not great - and of course topping and tailing using a profile is going to make that worse as you say... I think that's why I was so interested in the low light performance you've got out of your Max. I think that's the first bit of footage I've seen in low light which is actually pretty decent with fairly low noise levels.

Cheers! As usual, battling with low light and recovering crushed blacks in the shadows. I'm really trying to get into nailing colour grading - it proper difficult! I don't proclaim to be a pro by an means but am enjoying the learning and experimentation with the gear that I've got. I'm quite pleased with a couple of the angles on the above but again, when you only got 8 bit video to work with, there's only so much you can do. The GoPro is especially difficult as the footage is overly saturated and sharp - the exact opposite that you need for that cinematic feel that I am striving for (and don't even get me started on frame rates!) The GoPro was the drummers so I don't know what can be done in terms of dropping the saturation and sharpness... I think I've heard of it being able to be done. My GoPro is so old it's pretty basic on the options... and it's low light capability is pretty tragic.

Just started going through the footage from NYE and will be putting together a little medley showreel together from it. Meanwhile here's one I did for the singer primarily - as he wanted to know how good his take on Prince was. DSLRs and GoPro 6 on the kit. (I think you can tell as the image has a different look and feel about it).

Ive not seen one of those LWA1000s ever. And isn't the Hellborg discontinued? Thomann flogged off all their stock at ridiculous (low) prices anyway.

^ There's your answer then.
