  1. [quote name='p58' timestamp='1336471025' post='1645952'] well, I was worried with the same problem. I took some of my velcro, went to Baumax and than to Ikea. I tried to attach it to every carpet there and than something happened - 1 euro carpet for dogs solved my problem [/quote] Isn't this the perfect solution? If you can't get to Ikea take some of your velcro to a local carpet place?
  2. With 3 pedals it's not going to take long to try out every possible combination
  3. As far as I can tell this isn't a current model and none of the fender ones I can find are as slim or have a single cut-away - I was hoping someone would have some more info for me really
  4. Thanks BIGd - as I said pricing suggestions are more than welcome. I did buy it 2nd hand so will add that to the OP to make it clear. I was hoping 9 years worth of inflation would be my loss on this bass but perhaps that's too optimistic
  5. I bought a mic from Ian, he shipped it as quick as possible, packed very well etc. An absolute pleasure to deal with!
  6. Any tips on how to improve my listing?
  7. cheers Nice bass by the way!
  8. I get the impression there's a thread i've missed somewhere. I've seen a lot of jokes about fake rickys but don't get it. I know it's lame to ask but can someone link me?

    I wouldn't worry about having EQ and compression on every channel, as long as it sounds good!!
  11. one of these USB jack leads might do the trick. As I understand it they're a cheap-o audio interface built into a jack lead so it would feel just as direct.
  12. [quote name='EskimoBassist' timestamp='1335867849' post='1637096'] Big feature set for the price no doubt, not to put you off (as I'm sure there are many of happy users) but my Marshall Reverb went south after only a few months of usage. Worked great when it did, plus it has hardwire bypass, but suddenly poo'd itself, no idea why. Very comparable to the DD-7 I think, in terms of features? [/quote] I have a jackhammer too from the same series and have gigged them each quite a lot (and I stamp quite hard on my pedals). Nothing's gone wrong yet. Did you look into getting the pedal fixed? I'd say it's comparable to the DD-7 but a lot cheaper
  13. ok, well the on-board sound cards on my computers around 10 years ago were great, and I used them to monitor the line and mic inputs with no latency. If I then started to record, I would of course find latency, likewise adding effects in real time.
  14. I thought that you shouldn't really get latency unless you're doing something to the audio input - adding an effect or amp sim or something? I never used to get latency when simply monitoring my line-in. I did get latency when I started using VSTs (without my nice interface)
  15. HD24s never seem to go that cheap? The FTP function is great though - used to use them at uni If you had an old laptop you could leave it on all the time, it's not going to consume that much energy
  16. I can't think of anything with all that in one box. Would you not just use a computer with a simple sound recorder which defaults to saving to a shared network location?

    It's a pleasure to read your mix posts Si, there's always something i've not thought of before or needed reminding of
  18. bump! Check out the inlay on the headstock
  19. if you get a pedal with a tap tempo input then you can add a small tap tempo switch - i'm sure you could get one in one of those tiny boxes. If not it'd be dead easy to make - just a momentary footswitch and a jack lead the Marshall Echohead is small, has a few different interesting modes, and a tap tempo input. You can generally get them for under £50. I have a DD-20 which I love, but I still use the echohead for it's reverse mode.
  20. I bought a tuner from Chris, and to echo the above "exactly as described, posted very quickly, packaged very well, top marks from me." Cheers!
  21. SOLD!!! I've had this bass for around 9 years and bought it 2nd hand. I was looking for an acoustic bass, and this one has a slimmer body than any i've ever seen. It's much easier to hold and play than your average acoustic bass IMO, and you look much less like a mariachi when standing up. It seems to be beautiful construction but i'm not an expert. It says made in Korea. The model is BG29. It also says NAT on the same line but i'm not sure if that's relevant. Some interested parties have pointed out to me that it's short scale, which is a pretty important peice of information I missed out here, sorry! Anyway, it plays very nice, sounds nice acoustic and plugged in and is in great condition. I think I paid around £350 but to be honest my memory is hazy I'm hoping to realise around £300 from this sale, but please let me know if my price is off either way. I don't mind public discussion of the price as I have no idea what this is worth. I have no problem with offers much lower than this - the worst that will happen is I say no. PLEASE any offers welcome! I can ship this anywhere in the UK There are more pics here but they're very big... [url="http://creepjoint.co.uk/bass"]http://creepjoint.co.uk/bass[/url] I only ever play my 6 string basses now so this hasn't been touched in a couple of years, and i'm broke, hence the sale.
  22. [quote name='lxxwj' timestamp='1335624080' post='1633883'] Can you put up an audio sample of that sound? I've always wanted to hear a good use of an MT-2 on bass.. [/quote] I always thought it worked very well on bass. I don't have one but have tried a couple out. The EQ is really good. I'd get one if I didn't already have 10 dirt pedals.
  23. If you cup a mic then it could increase feedback. If you sufficiently insulate it with your hand, then obviously it would kill the feedback. Maybe I have some weird super hands, but it generally works for me when using a 57
  24. [quote name='icastle' timestamp='1335514450' post='1632329'] That'll work just fine if you're one of the bass 'demigods' with a loyal troupe of followers hanging on your every note and buying basses with their demigods name written on the headstock, but it'll really cut no ice in a bog standard plug and play setting. [/quote] I disagree. I play a 6 string and the high C enables me to play a chord accompaniment which is comparable to guitar, as well as play bass lines on the lower strings. I don't see the difference between this and a guitar/bass duo where the guitarist sings.
  25. As long as you select "paying for goods and services" on PayPal then they do have a system to help you if something goes wrong. I reckon they'd be about as helpful as your bank. EDIT: But that's just my opinion and some people hate PayPal
