Sky Arts ,Worlds greatest Basslines .28/11/25
Gray C replied to martin8708's topic in General Discussion
Although it wasn’t anything like the title suggested, I still found it pretty good, episode 3 with Nate Mendel in particular. Nice to see bass players in big bands acknowledging influences and their peers too. JJ Burnel and his sound getting mentioned a few times, but disappointingly no chat with the man himself. Respect for the late Jack Bruce and John Entwistle was nice too. I guess if we all had to make a list of bass players or the lines that influenced us, no two lists would be the same. Personally I wish they had included Geddy Lee, Sting, Paul McCartney even if just to talk about singing and playing at the same time in more detail, which was only brushed on. With the amount of bass players interviewed on the three shows they could easily have made 8 or 10 shows, but maybe they were cautious about viewing figures for something niche like bass playing, who knows? Here’s hoping we get some more episodes in future to dissect and disagree about. -

It does sound like a fit issue to me. Maybe at the next one walk away as far as you can and see it the sound changes. Yes, with MS you can open it in personal mixer mode, you just select which buss you want to control, or can chose your Aux feed on the home screen and get the same result. Id also recommend an app called MX-Bus. This is designed just for using with monitor/IEM mixes, and doesnt get you to the main FOH screen. a bit easier to use on the flay IME.

Thanks for this, bit to think about there. The issue I've had is more a very boomy sound, and the last gig that combined with overly bright treble. Do you know if there's individual mix control with that app? None of the others seem to use it, but a quick Google suggests that might be a thing.

Mine weighs at 3.67kgs. No neck dive too.

Anyone solder wires into mains plugs?

If the copper cable is tinned, it will become brittle compared to flexible pure copper. Therefore it can become loose under the screw, not because the screw gets loose. -

The nano-sized ones are now on the EHX website for $122 USD. Wonder when we'll be able to get our hands on them. I've wanted an op-amp muff for a little while and this may be the one.

Thats what we use. One idea is you could use the built in Amp sim on your channel of the IEM. This gives it a bit of life. My bass player DI's in to ours, and the bass sounds ok to me in my IEM's. Not spectacular, but as its a direct input with nothing as far as FX goes, its a sound I would be happy with if I was were playing bass. I'd say if the Guitars are sounding ok (and the drums?) then it could well be the fit of the IEM's or a drastic EQ making you lose the low end. Ive had occasions where my IEM mix has got drowned out by the stage volume and its sound awful, but re seating the IEM's fix it. I get a good fit, but if I shout or smile too much I find the fit can loosen a bit, and that can let too much noise in.

Yes, I probably should have mentioned the weight, it's around the same as my JMJ and noticeably heavier than the Sandberg but I do find it easily manageable with a wide strap. -
I've just asked, and it's a Behringer XR18 with Mixing Desk app? Mixing Station, I should say..

Nice! I've just ordered one of the light bars (below) which seems to be a similar thing to the vertical light bars in the photo. I'm thinking maybe in the first instance to lay it on the floor by our mic stands, but I'll have to see how that looks. p.s. please stop posting cool lighting photos, it has a real world impact on my bank balance! 😆 😆

For a bit of 80s pop/rock in Lincolnshire, we're going into Christmas week with a gig on Sunday 21st December. It's at Edward's in Grantham which is a great place with free entry and a late afternoon start. So you can party like it's 1985 and be fresh for Monday morning!

Your best (and worst!) bass gear purchases of 2025?
M@23 replied to Al Krow's topic in General Discussion
Picked up these 2, both of which are ace. 1982 Westone Thunder 1 and a Joyo BA30. Amp sits on my work desk, has Bluetooth playback, a compressor, good EQ and a passive radiator. Kicks out a solid sound for one 4” driver! The Westone is just a solid slab of wood, simple and great fun. -
I had an Ohm cab which I used with a Laney PB150 head. At some point I decided to go small and lightweight, and pxed them for a GK 200MB combo.

I remember Ohm bass amps, used them at a few rehearsal rooms, no idea about any onboard effects though.

So I have gone ahead and ordered the HB for her along with the Fender short scale gig bag which had good reviews. Just looking at a small combo for her. I was going to get the 20w HB bass combo at £70 but the reviews didn't seem too good. So I'll keep my eye out for something second hand. After that, I'll probably change the strings to a lighter gauge as well once I've looked at what's available.
