I've got the rack and although I started using the loops as I've learned the unit more I have now removed all but 1 external pedal from my set up - the BSW. The latest firmware had tons of stuff for bassists. More compressors / amps / drives. I'm actually tempted to get the LT as well as the rack and the other bits in the rack is quite heavy. Need to save up a bit first!

Very. There's no internal differences between full fat Nd LT. Usual rules apply as for every preset based item: bin the presets and make your tone from scratch

New ones should have the latest firmware, but if not, update it straight away. Don't want to make a cool patch and then have it sounding different 5 mins later. Also, when using the cab models, use the high and low cuts. They are set to zero. They are the "secret" to a good amp sound. Set the low cut at about 75hz and the high at about 6khz. Stops the low end boom and any fizz.

I'm trying to decide whether the scribble strips and the extra I/O is worth 300-odd squid, money that could go towards an FR800.... [/quote] Full fat also generates a massive discount for the Helix Native plug in which is due later this year. Like $99 instead of $299

I love my M900. Sold my DG pedals because of it.

I've got it. Very good. I'm using my Helix more these days but I'll never delete SVX.

[quote name='Cuzzie' timestamp='1500414612' post='3337658'] I think it will be a £3-500 bracket. If it does produce that sound at a quarter or the dug amp price it's a winner [/quote] I've just seen the price of the amp. Gear4music have them for order at £2549 Quarter price would be £637 No frakking way.

Anyone installed the Tone Capsule in a precision? Any good? Does it still allow a signal through when the battery is dead? I am tempted!

That tiny clip sounds very nice - but I'd have to have a proper go. I get a very similar sound with my DG M900.

I wasn't aware of people saying that the crowd won't notice incompetence. I do think they don't notice a lot - but incompetence usually stands out to most people.

Lovely. I'll grab that when I get home. Thank you.

Can the hive mind help? I'm looking for accurate bass notation / tabs for Cupid's Dead Cynical Hip Today There are many half-correct tab versions on the usual sites, but if anyone has proper notation that would be excellent ta

[quote name='Jus Lukin' timestamp='1499177509' post='3329720'] Quite. A vocal has a range. A song which sounds great with one voice (the one of whoever wrote it, say) might sound wrong with another. A shunt in one direction or another might bring the song alive for the singer in question. A far better thing to ask might be about why some musicians are so fixated on the importance of the key a song was originally written in. [/quote] This. In spades. The OP reads a lot like someone who has never sung. It's akin to demanding that a bassist play a low D on a 4 string tuned EADG. What do you mean you can't do it? What do you mean your instrument doesn't do it? Why are you crap at your instrument?
