Hi All, For my current build i would like to use magnets for the cavity cover. I would like to use 4 magnets. Does anyone know what would be a good size and strenght of the magnets to hold the cover but also not too hard to get is off? Any experiences with this? Thanks! Ron

That's basically replacing a key requirement of what it means to be a musician. Although it will be interesting if it can do that in real time with other musicians and then improvise.

I don’t think it’s something I’d get unless it glows like this

Yes, I do. I like it very much. Not sure which MS model it is though. An 805 in natural florid gloss perhaps ?

Don't let the door hit you on the way out...

Personally I would try it with no input but clearly on that video, the noise spike was hitting all channels, where the zoom was only plugged into one, so I would very much doubt it was related. I wouldn't have it plugged in as it could be putting noise on the mains.

Thanks for all the great suggestions everybody. For someone as out-of-touch as me it really is invaluable. I just want something faff-free to practise with when I can't access my preamp and pedals that I plug into my pc via an interface as my main rig at home. I really know very little about with the digital side of music technology and how it applies to bass. This is the first time I've heard anything about NAM profiles ect, but I think it could be really useful to learn more. I'm doing some investigating this afternoon, but the Sonicake Pocketmaster is so cheap I'm very tempted to give it a go.

Well it has a higher intelligence than me, thats for sure. 🤣

- 🙂 ah I was hoping not to go in that direction. Yes I agree the UK has been intentionally culturally modified etc. That wasn't what I was thinking about though, maybe think in terms of north-south divide. So imagine being in a band where there's someone from the industrial north, south of England, South Wales and Brum. All four will have grown up in very different surroundings, very different schools. Also think of different era. A person growing up in the 1970s will have a very different social upbringing than a person from the 1990s. Imagine then a band with those four very different mind-set or in my term, culture, I'm sure it will produce it's own vibe.

So you forgo the convenience of solid state amplifiers to get the tone of a valve, and then replace the valve with a really expensive solid state valve emulator, giving you the win win of Solid state sound processing combined with Valve inconvenience

I don't think thats technically AI. Its just an analysis tool in the software. A lot of things are getting called AI in the marketing nonsense when they're not.

I sent the Katana Go back to Amazon, I'm afraid. Thanks anyway, though.

There’s good advice and experience above, I don’t think it’s enough, others do, you won’t know unless you try 👍

A Fair shout ... but at this this price point ... your weekend warrior has more options than ever ... this combo amp is the price of a shitbox car , but it feels to me that they could have liked to have seen a version of their "500" or " 750" head not a 300 model. Hopefully we see some people with the claws on A/B it against a like priced seperate setup.

But if your baffle is not yet glued to the cab, could just secure it to another bit of wood for the centre hole. Actually, might temporarily fix something to my fully constructed cab to poke a centre hole in… hmm…

I did that with my 12” cab. Was going to see if I could shave a couple of mm off by using a bearing bit. Not thought it through probably yet though!
