msb Posted April 17, 2023 Share Posted April 17, 2023 The Hotone has a mini Aux In so you can plug in a tablet , and headphones … and practice without disturbing anybody. It’s a good practice rig , I don’t use it to drive speakers. I spend a lot of time using phones and the Hotone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stereoplayer Posted April 17, 2023 Share Posted April 17, 2023 I used the back line stuff for my stereo rig. It actually sounded very good! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DGBass Posted April 21, 2023 Share Posted April 21, 2023 Band not gigging at present due to band member health issues and rehearshals are also infrequent. The opportunity for some rehearshal studio shake down time was too good to pass up today. If I was gigging this weekend, I'd be using this lot of bass noise making stuff. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice rig, although I think I’d have trouble with the (presumably guitarist’s) Vox combo at head height? 🤨 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The placing of the PA was worse though and when I wasn't on BV duties I shifted over to the left of it all. I could hear myself but not very well, though listening to videos of the gig the sound was ok for the audience. We were supposed to be playing in the garden but the weather put paid to that. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BassmanPaul Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 Once while playing a gig at Toronto's Ontario Place we had to stack the keyboard players' 4x12 on top my twin 15. There were times when I felt dizzy and nauseous. We never did that again!! Sadly my hearing was never the same again! 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BassmanPaul Posted May 8, 2023 Share Posted May 8, 2023 (edited) @Merton Why would you consider this overkill? I stack my Acme B2 2x10s in the exact same way. There's safety in numbers and the two cabs take up the exact same stage space as one. You can hear yourself better 'cos the upper cabinet is closer to your ears. Add to that the dispersion out into the room is much improved so the audience hears you better too! It's a win, win situation.

I say overkill because of our drummist was a bit less heavy handed we’d all be able to use less on stage and not need ear protection Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BassmanPaul Posted May 9, 2023 Share Posted May 9, 2023 I have four Acme boxes and I love them. once I was setting a pair of them up and the band leader says reprovingly 'That's an awfully big bass amp Paul'. I wouldn't have minded but he stood on the other side of the stage with a pletora of instruments most of which he never actually played between us. I barely had room to stand let alone move. 🤯 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mudpup Posted May 14, 2023 Share Posted May 14, 2023 Thought I would give the Orange amp a run out this weekend instead of my usual Mesa. Venue was a bit tight width wise so it was stuffed in a corner. I'm still really pleased with it as a lighter weight big iron amp 😁 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
