    Yes, me too, but Rush are one of the few I make an exception for. Plus, I made the effort to get early access reducing the damage slightly.

    I have one fitted to my Streamer Stage 1. There is a spacer in between the rear of the headstock and the back plate of the lever mechanism. The spacer shifts the lever a few mm away from the headstock so it can be deployed without any interference from the neck or headstock. The tuners are fitted in the normal position for a Warwick bass.

    Thanks for the replies. Am I right I thinking that the Akai doesn't have full sized keys? I'm guessing from the replies above that this isn't much of an issue though. I think I've got one of the Icon models on my Ebay watch list but wasn't sure what they were like so I might pull the trigger on that one. The Midiplus one sounds good too. Lots of options then - thank you once again.

    This stereo pedal has three distortion types, can save up to 3 presets as it is without any additional gear. It can, of course, be used with the Neuro hub etc and MIDI for maximum control and maaaany more presets, but I never really explored that, the pedal does all I wanted as it stands. The Neuro app, however, is very handy, as it gives you access to many parameters. The way I used it was to create the basic overdrive/fuzz sounds using the app, and then just rely on the unit's physical controls to adjust drive, blend etc to taste. It's essentially 3 dirt pedals in one, and you can modify each until you are bored . It can run two of the distortion engines simultaneously, and blend them, stack them, or output them in stereo. It can do too many things to mention, so if you're not familiar with the Aftershock it's probably best to have a look at this: https://www.sourceaudio.net/aftershock-bass-distortion.html and this (the demo focus a bit too much on the higher gain sounds, but it's excellend at low gain sounds too): It has heavy duty 3MM velcro on the bottom, which of course can be removed. The original rubber feet were never installed and are included, as well as the cable to connect it to your phone to use the Neuro app, which gives you access to a huge array of parameters.

    I bought this a while ago but then I changed my mind and it was too late to return it See all details about the preamp here: https://www.darkglass.com/en-gb/pages/tone-capsule-manual and here: https://www.darkglass.com/en-gb/products/tone-capsule Basically, it's a 3-band with lows at 70Hz, low mids at 500Hz and high mids at 2.8KHz with very easy wiring assembly.

    Classic bass synth pedal. It's seen a lot of action and has a few scuffs to show it, but it's only cosmetic. https://www.boss.info/us/products/syb-5/

    😮‍💨 I’m so glad I’ve stopped going to big events like this . This would infuriate me if I was interested .

    Independently footswitchable clean boost + VLE ('vintage loudspeaker emulation' low pass filter) and VPF ('variable pre-shape filter', a bit like a 'contour' control, scooping mids while boosting low/highs). Standard TS output plus balanced DI output (XLR). Original MarkBass power supply included (but it works fine on standard 9V supplies - I used it for years with a T-Rex Junior supply, you just get a bit more headroom if powered with 12V) Bypass can be buffered or true-bypass (switch at the bottom). It can work very well as a way to split the signal into FOH and an independent IEM rig or backline.

    I'm booked to see the London Concert Orchestra soon and I'm buzzing! There will always be more local bands than orchestras - classical music takes a huge amount of coordination! Neoclassical artists like Ólafur Arnalds and Hania Rani are really popular with the young folk. A big part of the appeal is that you can really hear the hammers, felt and pedals in Ólafur's piano - it's closed-mic'd to accentuate the fact that it's a real instrument being played in a real room.

    2nd Gen Focusrite Solo USB interface, 2-in/2-out. Can be powered directly via USB. Great condition, light home use only.
  16. mcnach
    It's a multitrack recorder, using SD cards as storage. 16 tracks total, can record 8 inputs at once, and supports an unlimited number of virtual tracks / alternative takes (well, limited by the space in the card!). Built-in stereo microphones. Wide range of on-board FX. Power supply included, but it can also run on AA batteries. It can also work as an interface to control a DAW on the computer. https://www.zoom.co.jp/node/68/1000

  18. mcnach
    Source Audio "Soundblox 2" series MultiWave Bass Distortion. Boxed, with power supply included. Wide range of unusual 'synthlike' distortions, and a handful of more common ones, with some octave options, gate, EQ, and separate level controls for clean and distortion voice. Two presets can be stored and recalled with the footswitches, or can be used in 'live' mode. It does a lot of things, best to get an idea is the manual here: https://sourceaudio.weebly.com/uploads/1/1/5/1/115104065/sb2_mwbd_manual.pdf and this demo goes over the controls and some of the sounds:

    High demand causes an increase in the prices of the remaining tickets.

    A step attenuator has fixed steps that can be decided in the soldering phase (log or lin, 3 or 6 dB steps, or whatever). I have built few to some of my basses. Metal film resistors, Elma rotary switches.

    I think there was an Orange speaker and I am sure it was a Markbass Amp...Sounded good onstage!

    What’s dynamic pricing ?
  26. walshy
    I keep checking this listing and the Ray hoping they'd sold already 🥵
  27. BassTractor
    Nice one. Akai tend to use reasonably good keybeds too, and I found their Miniak synth and MPC Key 37 production workstation to be very playable.
  28. woodyratm
    Could be open to some trades, potentially Canadian Dingwalls, but feel free to try me.

    IF you can stretch this to 49 keys, the simple Midiplus AK490 spawns enormous quality and playability for the money. Expect to have to search, though Bax seem able to deliver next week. 5-pin MIDI. IMS, it spawns a battery compartment, which in case I've used extensively. Maybe obsolete, the M-Audio Keystation 37 is a bit more spongy in its keys' response, but still quite alright. 5-pin MIDI. I've recently also bought an Icon iKeyboard 4S (three octaves, not four, so 37 keys), which surprised me positively to the degree I'll go for Icon from here on, despite its higher price point. 5-pin DIN. Icon has cheaper models too: the iKeyboard 4 and iKeyboard 4X, which I feel still are impressive for the money. 5-pin MIDI Icon make things a bit complicated with the enormous range they offer. They offer three different key sizes (regular, mini and nano), lengths from 25 to 88 keys, and also different levels of being advanced and knobby. If you can, visit a shop and compare them. Be aware that the more knobby models tend to have better keybeds, and sometimes the longer models spawn better keybeds than the shorter ones. I know zilch about USB and about the disabling you mentioned, so can't help there.
