I don't understand this. Why will a dep have a lower level of effort and committent? Like I said before you're playing with the wrong people. That’s not my experience of how a dep behaves. Most of the musicians, even many of the band leaders, I know are in more than one band and every one of them gives every gig full commitment and maximum effort. If we didn't give 100% we'd deserve to be out of work.

No, it's just another inaccuracy in the reading. It does mean that if you have two identical preamps, one with a diode protection and the other without, then the one without will continue working while the battery drops a further 0.6V after the one with the diode has died.

We are having problems agreeing on a calendar app for our band and one band member is suggesting this one. Anyone had experience with it, or tried anything similar?

I'd rather do it with someone else's skin.

SGFX have made the EQ circuit into a boost and low gain od im thinking of ordering a bass specific version - not sure yet but Greg has said he’s keen

I had a Monaco and swapped it for a ......Monza. It's hard to compare many makes but compared to Barefaced, you have a number of BF ranges to compare to. Some are coloured, some not, some are full range but IMHO none sound as good as the LFSys cabs. While both Barefaced and @stevie have now a few years making and designing bass cabinets, the important thing is that @stevie has spent decades designing crossovers. He tunes that cabs both by measurement and by ear, then gets the designs road tested before release. AS for high end 112s, Vanderkley seem to have disappeared, and I have covered Barefaced above. You do not say where you are based but try one if you can. Your ears and bass will love you.

I’m afraid you were an hour behind on my feed. You best return those winnings!

Indeed, deionised water can be used as an insulator; But, if you were to touch something tht was "Live", would you rather do it with a dry bit of skin, or a wet bit of skin?

Pretty sure it's safe on a pub gig with you in the room all the time, likewise on tour where you travel with it.. It's putting it on an aeroplane or otherwise entrusting it to a third party where things might unravel, especially if there's a change of flight an route. Get it played, man!

Of course it would, but not sure why that is relevant to the battery voltage? You aren't trying to establish the voltage the preamp needs, I assumed people are trying to put a lot of effort into measuring a battery

Oh, I do….. I do, I do, I do, I do, I do.

Sire have actually come up with the solution to that themselves.

Well, this isn't what I'd hoped for when I started the thread! 😅 I've just seen some amazing circus acts!

Original Sin - INXS

Perhaps they aren't quite as incompetent as all that and have refunded the insufficient postage?

I'm a big fan of Doug Wimbish and Living Colour. Bit before my time, but I remember hearing Cult of Personality on Napster and loving it and then when I was 20 seeing Wimbish doing that performance on his DVD on YouTube completely blew me a way. Saw lots of polar opinions about the sound on this tiny desk performance but I loved the separation, hearing Vernon reads guitar and dougs bass tone coming through.

Perhaps, but I was quicker hitting Send
