I do the same thing with my TU-2 and JH-1, so i can't see you having any issues really.

Liam

Always flat for me, unless the room requires any different, if i'm actually using an amp that is.

Liam

Peavey IPR are pretty well regarded, decent power and damn good prices.

Liam

If you're intending to use both cabs at once, get another BC212. It's usually best to get a matching cabinet so that would be your best option IMO.

Liam

Dawsons is pretty good in Manchester, and if you're into pianos and acoustic guitars, then Forsyths is enough to kill an hour or two wandering around.

My band have just released our first EP which is on our soundcloud and available for free download if you so desire.

For small action cameras GoPro is the the main one, with good reason. They can be quite pricey if you go for the 3+ Black Edition and any extra bits and pieces, but the older ones work just as well in most cases. Contour are the other main brand but i'm not sure on pricing or quality on those.

Liam

Evening ladies and gents,

My band A Little Bit Outlaw have just released our first track in quite a while and a music video to match. A very bass led track too, though a strange video. Have a look if you like.

The EP is available for free on our soundcloud and bandcamp with limited physicals available.

Thanks,

Liam

Nurse Nurse! Kiwi's got out again!!

I think i'm going to have to make a journey to test that Crafter in the Music Cellar (Not without a phone call first of course. Not sure where you got Stockport from though Skank, they're in Preston. Much easier to get to.

Liam

What software are you recording with? You shouldn't be having any problems whatsoever getting a good tone with a good quality interface like that Presonus.

[b]Crafter SA - Circa £500-550[/b]



Bout-mounted controls / pick-up in neck position. Maybe worth a try?

I've just been looking at these. So far from youtube stuff it sounds quite nice, but it seems they aren't too easy to get my hands on one to test anywhere around here annoyingly.

Liam

I made the mistake of trying a Taylor T5 (Hollowbody electric/acoustic hybrid thing of beauty) on saturday and now i want one, but as is often the case, £1900 is out of my budget.

Anyone have any suggestions as to alternatives?

Liam

I'm going to be using my camera bag (Lowepro Classified 200aw. £50 on amazon and huge) from now on. It's all compartmented in the main section with adjustable dividers, plus there's 4 more pockets on the front/rear.

Liam

Dunlop Dual Design for me, though i could get away with the grolsh washers as each bass has its own strap.

Liam

Personally, a Fractal Axe FX II with MFC-101. That would sort out pretty much everything for me, maybe running into a VT Bass Rack for some proper bass amp sim.

We should enter Geraldine and be done with it. Atleast it'd be funny.

Liam

Done. Hope my answers aren't as useless as i thought they were

Liam

It can work in very rare situations, but 99% of the time, it looks as cheap and tacky as a white pickguard on a black bass (IMO of course)

by the way, can I post videos on this site? is there a facility for uploading / viewing video tutorials and suchlike ?
[/quote]

The usual process is to upload to youtube and then just pop the link in a post. You'll get much better sound quality with a USB interface over the built in sound card. In my experience they tend to struggle with any sort of decent level and just sound sh*te.

Ps. If it's the lack of a start menu that's causing you issues in Win8, install IOBit Start8, it'll give you the start menu back like most people are used to.

Liam

If you don't mind buying used i'd go for a s/h Japanese P bass off here. Failing that, the Squier stuff should be a good safe bet, just try before you buy of course.

Liam

Circle Studios in (i believe) Birmingham, where BC's own Rimskidog resides should be worth a look.

Liam

Most answers on here will be OBBM, because his stuff isn't ridiculously priced, and it's all absolute top notch quality.

Liam

Either one for me, i'm not bothered. I just plug in and go. I don't usually end up staying in my 'spot' anyway, end up either on the other side with the guitarist, or somewhere in the crowd trying not to get anyone tangled in a cable.

Liam

Sound City (Dave Grohls documentary about the studio of the same name) was on the BBC over the weekend, and is currently on iPlayer.
