Great info here:- https://www.basschat.co.uk/topic/445206-vintage-trace-elliot-brochures/

Very nice, and I like an aesthetically well designed single cut sixer bass (Anthony Jackson fan here). The back is more beautiful than the front and it reminds me of my former JPBasses Lucii aka J-Lo, which is now with @diddywah (just look at his avatar). I guess it must be on the lighter side with a chambered body. Congratulations!

It's a valid question. We all haven't been 20 somethings for a while now and don't want to start at 7 to finish at 11. It makes work pretty painful the next day. We used to do 6-9 on a Sunday which was great until one guitarist moved to Newquay (travelling up in the week to work a few days in the office) and then suddenly it obviously doesn't work that well. Had to switch to midweek and then instead of doing 3 hour weekly practices, we're doing 4 hours every two weeks. It's all a bit frustrating. It really stops new songs being fresh for next practice if it's two weeks away. I think maybe we need to instigate some sort of online practice too on the non-physical meetup weeks. I've heard good things about Jamkazam.

Depending on how many separate channels of synchronised backing you can output along with the processed instrument that might be useful. However, just stereo isn't going to cut it for anything other than the most basic of gigs. Edit: will it also send MIDI program changes to other devices?

It depends if you're ready to break the bank... 🤔😉

For some reason as it's the award winning ugliest headstock ever made...

But now you don't need the computer. It can all be done from within the HX Stadium, backing tracks, automation, even DMX lighting. Heck, you could probably run the whole band through one device.

I already do all of that with my Helix Floor. Preset and Snapshot changes are controlled via MIDI from the computer that runs the drums and second synth part. Selecting a song also selects the correct Preset on the Helix and then the Snapshots change in the correct place as the song plays. On some songs then Snapshots change every two bars in places which mean that if the computer wasn't doing it for me I'd pretty much be glued to my pedals for those. We have a song we're currently working on where some of the changes only last a beat or two!

Can you not start rehearsals at 7 instead..? Or have the others rehearse without you for the first hour (BV, for instance, or segue ideas..?). Just a thought.

Gosh, what a horrible time to be a top quality bass gear reviewer! Neural DSP, Darkglass and now Line 6 all bringing out new toys! Mwah ha ha ha!!

Ah, right. That'll help, then

Line 6 stated in the live stream that the price of the Helix Floor, Rack and LT are going to be heavily reduced by a couple of hundred dollars. I would assume this will affect the used market price.

you know you have mad it when they turn the music off lol

It's in very good hands with JS. I've had basses that have been made by him, and one that went to him for a respray to gloss black. Brilliant service, and a top guy...⭐
