  2. Written and sung by Ian Willis. You know him better as Lemmy.
  3. Have a bump on me - these things are awesome
  4. Hi all. Reviving this thread because I'd like to know if people can comment specifically on the sound quality of these CQ mixers versus the ubiquitous Behringer XR (and X32) series? I've not got any experience using digital mixers but the years have taught me that using good gear throughout a signal chain tends to have a cumulative impact on the overall sound - more than A/Bing individual channels in isolation would suggest. Been using a couple of analogue desks recently with limited feature sets that I find harder work to get sounding good than I remember old Allen & Heath GL series being, where you just plugging in, messed around with the swept mids where necessary, and you were away. That said, how noticeable is any perceived difference in sound quality between the A&H and the Behringer kit, and where is it heard? I'm particularly interested in the basic sound (pre-amp, channel EQ, main bus) but also compressors and vocal reverb. TIA!
  5. Though a PAT test would not have detected this particular fault. So visual inspection is also a must. (Plugging it in and running your tongue along the cable would also work!)
  6. LFSys Monaco 600w 14kg + cover F1 line cabs. As new amazing tight deep sound on gigged a few times..easy to lift with quality top handel. Come and try bring you amp. I have 2 amps available. https://www.lfsys.co.uk/bassguitarproducts Aimed at players who are only satisfied with the best, the Monaco is the most powerful cab in the LFSys range. It's based on a recently developed Faital Pro 12-inch chassis with advanced features, a 3" voice coil and a 600W AES power rating. This state-of-the-art driver is partnered with a Celestion neodymium compression driver and matching constant directivity horn. Suitable partnering amps include the current range of 800W lightweight heads. Thanks to the presence of a shorting ring in the 12-inch driver as well as the cabinet's Extended Bass Alignment (EBA) and six-inch (150mm) port, the Monaco achieves an astonishing degree of control and definition - even at high sound pressure levels where most bass cabs fail to deliver. In many professional scenarios, it's all you'll ever need. Brief specification Power handling: 600W (AES) Sensitivity: 98dB (at 1 metre) Impedance 8 ohms Usable frequency response: 40 - 18kHz Crossover: 1.7kHz Size: 61 x 39 x 32cm (HxWxD) Weight: 14.0kg

  7. Remember them well fom my childhood. Even had "Adaptors" that converted one bayonet lamp socket in to two!
  8. I would be intersted to hear that. Sadly, the link does not guide me anywhere. Could you update?
  9. There ain't nothin new... Hoppy Jones, the Ink Spots
  10. I know what the World's Greatest Basslines are.... and I can guarantee they won't be on this programme.
  11. I've read the specs and that thing has a serious ARM core on it, but there is processing delay, it's not *no* additional latency.
  12. I checked it and all the screws are tightened, I also played without the grill and still noticed the sound.
  13. Urgh...... philistines..... 😠🤮😉🤣
  14. A bit shocked by the comments re Hooky above... I'm not a New Order fanatic by any means (I think I only own their original run of LPs) but the man essentially created the blueprint for the next two decades of indie (and a lot of rock and dance) bass playing and bass tones. Propulsive, melodic and often as hooky as the top line itself without being obtrusive - his best baselines are, for me, textbook examples of what the instrument should be doing in a pop song.
  15. Guitarist Keyboardist Horn Players Drummer Singers Any other Musician The audience Pub/venue landlord Anyone on the roads/public transport in my way when driving to the gig Family Friends Work colleagues Strangers People generally Animals ....seems I get annoyed easily!
  16. Thanks, Mokl. I was running two as a vertical stack – best live sound I've ever had!
  17. A couple of months ago I went with the guitarist and singer to chat with the landlady and get our money. We were standing together in a kind of circle and the landlady looked at me apologetically and told me me that if I wanted a drink before last orders that Jason the barman would serve me and that she was busy dealing with the guys from the band as she pointed to the other two. That kind of thing happens all the time. We played one venue where the landlord and his missus wanted a photo taken with the band. As we were forming the huddle, he told me he'd take one with me in it after they'd taken the one with just "me, the missus and the band". I went back to packing up.
  18. Green with Tort looks brilliant 🙂
  19. I love that! Thanks!
  20. Sorry, was having a moment! Hopefully they’re up now
  21. Amazing large-format limited edition hardback book on Rockpile. In English, full colour illustrated but published originally in Sweden. Price £20 includes UK postage. Mint condition.
  22. These were taken from a late Fender Precision and were fitted by the original owner. They sound great and were a popular mod of the time as they could be wired to a series parallel switch. They work well and there is still a good length of wire to them. They have the remains of the original pickup sponges stuck to the rear of them. I can send them in the box in the picture. There are a set of black non-original mounting screws with them. Pretty legendary set of vintage Dimarzios to soup up any P type bass. UK postage at buyer’s cost.
