Surprised they would get that wrong on their website. Very misleading if the feature isn't available.

Explain PA setups to me like I'm an idiot
warwickhunt replied to proy900's topic in General Discussion
With regard to power ratings etc (speaking in simple terms), you'll be fine... so long as you don't whack the desk sliders to max! Start off at zero and bring it up gradually, if the speakers start to complain/fart, you've reached the speaker's max level but I'm confident they should give you enough volume before then. Set with your EQ flat and don't start cranking the bass, that can push speakers. -
Nice 👍

Hello all, A promising opportunity has arisen for my band to make use of a space for rehearsal for an egregiously small monthly fee dwarfing quite considerably our outlay for our current room, which means we would give up our 12 years long slot in a wonderful, acoustically treated, 500sq/ft studio fitted out with a high-end PA and desk. We will have to setup our own PA in the new space of course as it is not a space intended or made for musical endeavours. Due to our local music venue closing it's doors recently we have been able to obtain a Peavey Power Amplifier and 15" speakers, desk, stands, cables etc... etc... These bits of kit were never used together and the venue owner wasn't able to give any insight on if these were a suitable match. Now none of us in the band understand the magic smoke that is power ratings for these kind of things, and I'm really friggin' dumb; so can anyone advise if the following equipment is fit for purpose. Please can any advice be explained as if you were providing a teachable moment to a 5 year old, which coincidentally is my approximate reading age. Peavey PV-1200 Power Amplifier (link to manual > PV-1200) Peavey PRO-15 (MK1?) 4ohm 600w speakers (Cannot for love nor money find the manual for this model, only the 300w 8ohm MK2 version) Behringer X2442USB Mixer I'd really like to know if putting two guitar modelling boards, 3 vocal mics, and an ambient backing track module through this setup to play modern metal stylings, at not entirely cranked volumes, is going to cause damage to, or small fires within the equipment. In case you wonder, my bass will be running through a wonderful Ashdown ABM 8x10 EVO separate to the desk because the flap is strong with an X7 and 900w DG Microtubes. Thanks in advance for any advice proffered.

What do you do when your music career is over?
Linus27 replied to NancyJohnson's topic in General Discussion
No worries, I was interested as I believe you and I live in roughly the same area and the way you described the drummer reminded me of someone who I was wondering if it's the same person. More recently he was playing in a really good female fronted 3 piece playing 80's covers. -
Thanks Terry and Lozz.

Sandberg Electra VS4 active/passive switch.
warwickhunt replied to fender52000's topic in Bass Guitars
You'd think so... but I just sold one of the new version Electra and it could not be switched; it was active only! It doesn't help the OP unfortunately. -

They are very similar to a five string and are fun to play once you get used to them. My fretless version is a dream to play and is my goto instrument.

Tech 21 VT Bass Deluxe for sale in excellent condition but without box or manual. Has velcro on the base but could easily be removed. I bought this new some years ago but haven't been using this for some time and would like to free up some cash, hence the sale. Price includes UK wide delivery via Royal Mail or Parcelforce, or can be collected locally in Cardiff for a small reduction.

Unfortunately it’s just been announced that due to Jeff’s failing health that The Hyde Park gig has been cancelled. So very sad. -
It’s just been announced that Sunday’s Hyde Park gig has now been cancelled. So sad for Jeff, and all his fans coming to this last hurrah. ☹️

I'm interested depending on whether gigging or not

The bass isn't going to be a keeper. It's a long story and has been a catalogue of disaster... But here we are and I quite its looks and sound.... It's just a bit of a lump.... If I sold it (or tried to) I'd never get anywhere near what it's cost me so far... I'll decide what to do with it once I have a better replacement.... BB

Good news to hear you are home again and MRI was clear. Just a matter of time till you get 100% back to normal and gigging again. Take care. Dave
