The latest version. I will see how I go about rolling it back

Since the recent update Audacity has developed the following issue: When attempting to copy and paste a track or part thereof I get an error message telling me Audacity can't import AUP files. Does anyone else have this issue and if so what can I do? Using Linux, Manjaro and it's the latest version of Audacity.

They don't tell you anything at JPTR - they like to let us discover stuff. You can blend in clean bottom end. And alter which frequency that is. Whether it's always there or not I can't say.

Absolutely breathtaking. It's deceptive...the outside has no control beyond the on off switch. However under the bonnet is a parametric EQ for the clean bass which allows you to set it either to boost the lower frequency of your choice or simply natch it with your clean sound. You can also alter the fuzz from just breaking up to something you could shave with. And there are four dip switches to alter the nature of the fuzz in yet more ways but I've yet to really play with these. In short, set it precisely how you want it, seal it up and don't ever worry about accidentally changing the settings. I'd say it's the perfect bass fuzz.

Just arrived from Germany. I can't believe the price of these pedals. So cheap. Even got free postage on this!

It is similar in many ways. Has some great sounds.

This week's board. Using the Ampero as a preamp everything else in its loop.

I know. It's shameful

See. Even my Orange Little Bass Thing looks ludicrous with such a massive overhang.

Thanks guys.

Thread revival. 20 pages way too much to plough through. Quick question: how, given the HPF removes inaudible frequencies, do you tell if it's working?

Bought a couple of cabs from Simon today and the entire transaction was a reminder of why I love Basschat. The price was more than fair, he drove to meet me at a mutually agreed place, the cabs were precisely as described, and the communication throughout was faultless. Absolutely excellent Basschatter - deal with complete confidence.

Born To Be Wild, our own interpretation loosely based on Wilson Pickett's cover. Played for fun as the venue had completely emptied and we had five minutes to fill

To be honest I don't know. These particular gigs come through a booker and it just feels like a soulless exercise for all concerned.

Another slightly depressing Friday night pub gig yesterday. I don't know how these places stay in business with so few customers. We went through the motions and it will help pay some bills, but it's tiring sometimes.

Wonderful project. Beautiful, quixotic and right up my street .

Near run thing last night. We have a weekly Bandeoke at a notoriously tardy paying venue. Sick of their shenanigans the band leader was forced to remind them of our agreement that we receive payment within a week or she could not guarantee her musicians would turn up. They coughed within a couple of minutes of the 6pm deadline so our strike was called off. Turned out to be a great night. Phew.

Damn. That's just totally impractical.

Actually I just remembered I have one of these in the loft. It needs fixing though. That means a courier and expense and it won't be a new amp when I get it back will it?

I have a pair of very narrow speaker cabs. I assumed that a particular head would fit them when they are stacked vertically. However there are a few millimetres overhanging on either side. This, of course, renders the set up entirely unusable. Sensing the opportunity to buy more gear, I am in the market for a bass head no wider than 10 inches. I am aware so far of the Elf, Gnome, Bam, and Harley Benton Block. Can you recommend any others? Ideally with precise measurements. Ta.

Only 3 gigs this weekend, one busy Bandeoke, one quiet Bandeoke, one freezing outside gig. 10 new songs for the Bandeoke gigs, of which only four got chosen but hey ho, I now have them all. The originals band is fun because I busk off chord charts which equates to two hours of improvisation, way more fun than trying to remember!

I've really been hankering for two of the the Trace Elliot 2x8 cabs but they're just too pricey for me. This seemed the perfect budget option and so far I couldn't be happier. Oh no that sounds terrible, they wouldn't work for me then 😆 Believe me as it got darker and darker and the bass became effectively invisible it didn't sound that good 😬
