  1. Keir has just been round to collect the Lakland Skyline 44-60 I sold him. A really smooth transaction. He paid a deposit after agreeing to buy the bass then paid another chunk a week or so later and then the remaining balance today when he was able to collect it. All communication was excellent and friendly and he arrived when he said he would. To boot, he is a really lovely guy and it was nice to sit and chat about basses with a fellow enthusiast. I’d have absolutely no hesitation in dealing with Keir again and would happily recommend him to others. Many thanks, Keir, I hope you’ll love the bass as much as I have.
  2. Thanks, James. Hope you’re well. Thanks. It’s lovely and sounds wonderful. I’m just cursing my small hands. I need to get a SLO Special or a Sterling.
  3. Beautiful Stingray from 1993, Flea bridge (with new mute pads), 2EQ, rosewood board, lovely birdseye figuring in the neck, fantastic Honeyburst finish. Weighs 4.2kg and balances nicely. It has a few marks from use, all of which were there when I bought it. There are a few pings in the lacquer, two have gone through to the wood. Nothing that affects playability. I had Jon Shuker set it up when I got it last year. It’s strung with GHS Precision flats 45-105. Comes with a new Musicman hard case, which I bought after I got the bass. Collection from Sheffield preferred. However there is potential for me to deliver/meet up between Sheffield and Bath (on the M42, M5, M4 corridor). Could potentially also bring down to London or up to Newcastle way and combine with a visit to friends. Price is absolutely firm. EDIT 18/10/21: If it’ll help sell, I’ll separate the case from the bass. So… EITHER £1100 with case as above OR £1000 with a very nice gig bag instead of the hard case.
  4. No worries. Another way around it is, if you have both oscillators in the same octave and slightly detuned, then set the volume of one of them lower than the other as this will keep the nice thickness from the detuning without causing complete cancellation when the waves are 180° out of phase.
  5. I enjoyed the synced tones most and wish he’d demonstrated the timbre and sweep knobs that are active in that mode.
  6. Nope, fluent. It’s my first second language. (I’ve got a thing for Germanic languages so learned Dutch, Swedish and Danish too).
  7. They are really nice. I only sold mine as I don’t like sunburst. Kind of wishing I’d just paid a few hundred to get it refinished instead of splurging on more basses.
  8. Sounds pretty straightforward (and very much like one of the original Deep Impact sounds, which are available in the FI). Sounds like it might just be an envelope filter with high resonance applied to a distorted bass signal, with some of the original distorted signal mixed in.
  9. That’s a solution but not the solution. Usually the problem with the device not being seen on the online updater comes from not having plugged in the device before launching Chrome; Chrome scans for connections when it is launched, not when devices are plugged in. (Same is true of the Editor: plug in the USB device before starting the editor, otherwise it won’t show in the menu.) Another issue can be that one has MIDI disabled in Chrome. The MIDI I/O setting in the Editor is for the Editor only; it has no effect on Chrome.
  10. 44-64s come with 1.75” (standard), 1.625” (“‘tweener”) or 1.5” (jazz) nut widths.
  11. Only thing to note is that the FI, by design, doesn’t pass CC6.
  12. FI has MIDI Thru on the MIDI out port. I don’t know about Stomp but I’d be surprised if it didn’t do the same. Setting up MIDI is remarkably easy. I came to it very late. The Morningstar controllers are a breeze to program.
  13. There’s nothing to contradict, we’re merely expressing our opinions and preferences.
  14. You can probably use your stomp to send PC messages to change patches on the FI. If you don’t have to make quick changes, you can double-tap the FI’s Program button to scroll down by 1. Obviously I’d recommend getting a Morningstar controller as it’ll unlock options on your FI and your Stomp.
  15. Possibly. Try removing the detuning and see if the phasing stops. It’s normally more apparent in waves with more harmonic content but pretty sure two sine waves will do it too. Actually, there’s tuning variation across a couple of your waves so you will get some phase cancellation.
  16. There is a channel 2 phase offset on the LFO. Have you got two saw waves slightly detuned? That will cause phasing.
  17. The Neuro search function is your friend! https://neuro.sourceaudio.net/preset/0GcxSAavu6
  18. @tonyxtiger was the guy who did the rental service. I used it a fair bit and it was great.
  19. Was going to tag @karlfer again but seems this may have gone now. Funny, when Latif was selling it, it was here for about a year and now it’s gone in a few days.
  20. Yep. It is lovely but I’ve run out of space and really am way more into Ps now. Need to recoup some funds too.
