That was the original selling point, to vary the set but now they just include them and you are back where you started with "we need to learn some new songs as a back up" Annoys me a lot. Dave

Silent stages - a soul-less gigging experience?
Al Krow replied to Al Krow's topic in PA set up and use
Thanks Phil, I agree, she's fab and we're very lucky to have someone of her vocal (and keys playing!) ability being a founder member and fronting our band. Yes, indeed, a new mixer is definitely going to be the next major piece of kit. Btw - I did offer the backline option to the guitarist/band. The response from them was a nuanced and balanced one i.e. maybe to consider doing at some but not all venues we're playing at. It's something we'll be discussing further and keeping in view. -
Well its £25 so not the end of the world if true. Also the caps in the pics of the unit are 63v so it would be a pretty elaborate scam.

I tried an Audere JZ3T in my Jazz Bass once (it was the 4-knob version with active 3-band, passive tone and 3-way impedance switch, but they sell them in 3-knob config too) and it was nice, but I got lost in all the tonal options. The impedance switch is cool but to me it didn't really offer anything usefull beside the middle (neutral) position. The low-Z setting gave a very deep, dubby low end and less high end. The high-Z setting was thin and almost a bit out-of-phase in character and was completely useless for me and my bands. In my Ellio Martina I have an Aguilar OBP-3 in a 3-knob configuration (volume/pan stacked with active/passive push-pull, mid/treble stacked with mid frequency select push-pull, and bass) but I don't like the center frequencies they chose for the EQ. The bass frequency is too low to my taste, the treble control is too high, and the mid control somehow only has a noticable effect when it's almost entirely up. May be a problem with the MEC pots it's coupled to in my bass, I don't know. Probably not the recommendations you were hoping for Other preamps I have experience with were stock electronics of various brands (Carvin, Ibanez, Cort, Status) so not much help there. I have yet to try the Darkglass, but the idea of two mid controls and no upper treble sounds very appealing to me, and very functional.

I've got a 105 on and it rattles/flaps. I have a 43 65 80 110 set being delivered soon. If the 110 is problematic, then I'll try a 120 for the E string.

Silent stages - a soul-less gigging experience?
Phil Starr replied to Al Krow's topic in PA set up and use
That's really interesting. I know your singer from the clips you've sent me and if she ever moves down to the West country I'd steal her She is good! So she's using the in-ears as just a back up for when the on stage sound is difficult and/or for a bit 'more me'. Both mine do the same and I can't wean them off it. though Lucy has got a good sound when using my in-ears and did like that. In fact she's asked to go back to 'can we use your mixer' where she last used in-ears so i think the problem is at least partly that she's lost the control of her mix. We are currently using the guitarist's XR18 for mixing. It's his new toy and I didn't have the heart to say no lets use mine. Got to keep the troops happy Guitarist is the only one not using in-ears and on the mix he likes to make it complicated. I'm a KISS person. Also we all have iPhones and the personal monitoring apps are non-exitent or glitchy with the X18's I sympathise with the guitarists generally. The modellers are good and getting better but not quite identical with the amps they emulate. However for the audience different is often better. It's a bit much though to ask a weekend warrior who has spent thousands on getting 'their' sound to give up using their pride and joy. In my other band the guitarist mic's his cab. For you though I think your next step might be a new mixer -

ONE LEFT – PRICE DROP TO £375. Best speaker cabinet I have used: selling due to downsizing. The David Eden 500 watt D210XST Cab is loud enough to be heard and yet still small enough to be used at home or in a small studio. This 2 x 10" cabinet handles more power than many 4 x 10" cabs on the market. The D210XST offers huge bottom end with its cleverly-designed tuned and ported cabinet construction and speaker selection: the low end is full but tight, the mids are open and well-defined and the highs are clear and crisp. Durable build quality makes this ideal for touring and live performances. Massive internal bracing prevents vibration and keeps the sound deep, tight and clear. The exclusive Eden Cast Frame loudspeakers and Eden Cast Bell low distortion tweeter horns are designed, hand-built and tested in their own factory in the USA. Very Good condition. Comes with a new official Eden dustcover. Power Handling: 500 Watts Impedance: 8 Ohms Speakers: 2x10" Eden-spec Eminence speakers Tweeter: Eden Cast Bell low distortion Crossover: 3.5KHz @ 18dB Frequency Response: 30Hz - 14KHz Sensitivity: 103dB SPL Connections: Parallel 1/4 Inch and Speakon Dimensions: 23" w x 18" h x 18.5" d Weight: 59lbs / 26.8kg Only £375. Collection from London E2 please – happy for buyer to arrange a courier.

I use a lusithand nfp pre. Its pretty killer.

If you play at home quietly when the kids are asleep, a decent pair of headphones would be a good choice and no risk of waking the rest of the household if you get a little too enthusiastic.

Tried these myself. Too heavy on the rest of the strings! I’d do 42 60 80 110 for drop C#/Dflat. Or just try adding a single 105/110 to what you’ve already got. I really like the D’Addario EXL170BT for a ready made set
