    More practically, what are you using as a DMX controller? I'm thinking you may be able to use a brace of single-board computers (Pi Zero W or ESP32), network them wirelessly, have one echoing the DMX controller across their mini network and the other taking that echo and controlling the lights at its end.

    Ah, that's easy. They use XLR connectors so just have several short cables joined end to end.

    If I wanted to increase our cable pack down times I wouldn't be looking for a wireless solution though! We've been looking to continually streamline our set up and pack down times, if we can spend a bit of money for an ongoing convenience that makes life a bit easier at every gig then we'll do it. We're all on IEMs with no backline or wedges, we ditched our stage snakes because they weren't really worth the hassle. Last gig we came off stage at midnight, all the gear was loaded into vehicles by 00:40 and I was home just after 1am which is how we like it!

    Pack away several shorter cables, then. Have a set, long enough together for your longest anticipated runs, plus one extra. Dmx can be daisy-chained, one cable after another. 300m is a very long run; most of the stages I play on would not need more than a 50m, long enough to go from stage Front Left, around behind the drums, then forward to stage Front Right. I could easily do that with two 20m and a 10m, with a 10m spare. For smaller stages, I wouldn't need to unpack even those lengths. We have all cables (mic runs, foldback runs, FOH runs, lights, power...) always running around the back of stage.as much as possible (we need a short run for the floor monitors from the sides...). Just sayin'.

    To be honest my blue sparkle Sterling Ray 34 sounds as good as my Musicman Ray34. The maple fretboard produces such a lovely tone so I guess it's my favourite. Genre is a tough one. I probably lean more towards indie rock light rock.

    I had the Roqsolid with yellow trim as well, the old Club series cabs also had yellow accents and stitching on the tolex. Looked really good tbh, smart looking cabs.

  14. MrDinsdale
    Never had a V1 but really enjoying the V2 after an hour of fiddling. I loved the Lusithand Alma before eventually selling it on and making do with GT1000core built in comps. When I sold that too it left a sizeable gap for compression, I think this is a keeper though.

    Last night’s dep rehearsal was mainly ok and I know what to brush up on. I got Mixing Station on my iPad connected to their Soundcraft Ui24 but for some reason couldn’t work out how to get my aux added to set my IEM mix, which is odd as I’ve had no issue doing so with a different dep that has the same interface 🤷🏼‍♂️ Tonight was run through of songs for three sets for tomorrow night’s dep with a different band. Fingers crossed I remember and don’t spend the night catching up in bar 2 when I recognise the song and find any key changes 🤪

    Going to suggest “in the midnight hour” as a) a homage to duck Dunn b) we have a lady saxophonist so the horn parts are do-able c) I absolutely love that tune and it’s the first one I figured out by ear so it’s a huge proud moment for someone as talentless as I am I spoke to the ridiculously talented keyboard player who happens to be the brother of the ridiculously talented bass player about a full-on blues jam next time if anyone has any killer blues jam endings please let me know (the climbing up the neck to the dusty end eighth note pluck-fest type of thing)

  19. Suezee started following Amp & Cab recommendations
  20. Suezee
    4 yrs ago I sold my amplification: a markbass LM2 coupled with the 104hf cab. Ideally I would like to get something that is less weighty but will provide the same volume and cut through as my new band dont go through the PA; just use a backline. Playing in pubs, clubs, halls to between 50 - 250 people. As Im out of touch with theblatest fear I wondered if anyone can recommend such. TIA

    It helps though I just use grenades @SpondonBassed I live next to a school so the use of military hardware is fully justified seriously though @Suezee what bass are you playing most right now and what genre do you most enjoy ?

  30. dannyaustin started following £250 SX SWB1 Gloss Black 4 string active bass (upgraded MEC pickup and Warwick Rockbass preamp)
  31. dannyaustin
    I'm selling my SX 4 string SWB1 to make room for another purchase. I bought it new from www.rumc-ltd.co.uk. £250 I have upgraded the preamp (Warwick Rockbass 2 band) model and replaced the single coil with an MEC pickup. It sounds great, and has a lot of tonal range on the preamp now. It plays well. I have noticed that it tends to go through batteries a bit. It's extremely lightweight! I don't have an exact figure. Original preamp and pickup included. I have changed the tuners and control nobs to black. Happy to meet in Huddersfield or somewhere near. I've attached photos, a recording and a video. The video audio has clipped unfortunately, but the separate audio is ok. That's from a condenser mic next to my 12" blackstar cab (It's not great, so I'm sure whatever you have will sound better) Video (sorry about the sound but at least you can see it playing. Please check out the audio recording for better quality sound.): https://youtu.be/4t-qIlODlkI Here are the specs: Model#: SWB1/BK Scale: 864mm Body: Mahogany Body Feature: Arched Top & Back Neck: Mahogany Truss Rod: 2 Way Truss Rod Neck Joint: Set-Neck Fingerboard: Engineered Rosewood or Rosewood Frets: Nickel Number of Frets: 24 Position Marks: Dots Inlayed, White Machine Heads: Die-Cast, Chrome Nut: Real Bone Nut Width: 38.5mm Bridge: Chrome Pickups: 1 x Single Coil (MEC) + 1 x Humbucker Controls: Treble, Bass, Volume and Balance bass test.mp3
