and the colour of the LED's too. Blue ones sound the best.



BTW:
2 No. Trantec diversity wireless
Custom 3 channel stereo mixer/Alembic power supply (being burn tested as I type)
Lexicon MPX-G2
(and possibly a stereo valve compressor if I find one clean and subtle enough)

Steady on lads!



We had a look at a "karma" system which R,5,R,5 suggested on Bassworld and it turned to be very complicated to implement and potentially subject to mis-use. I haven't seen any module as such which is available for invision boards that could be used as a feedback system in the same way as Ebay. So the solution we've got is very much a band aid type thing. However I'll ask Phatmonkey if there's a better and easier to implement alternative.

Its now there guys, we just forgot to put it in while we were setting up the forum behind the scenes. Pure absent mindedness on my part and nothing else.

[quote name='GreeneKing' post='2009' date='May 19 2007, 07:28 AM']I'd just like to add a big thank you for all the work you guys have put in. If I'm honest I'm a bit fed up with all the moving around and losses involved but you guys are in the driving seat.

So, did I say thank you [/quote]

We're fed up too, but our choices are very limited. In terms of the bigger picture, its the best way for us to make sure everyone has a forum which isn't shut down in the face of potential legal action. Thanks again Pete and everyone else for coming over.

I have a few others but these are my 4 main basses.

I don't really know in much detail to be honest. I've just found firewire very very reliable and stable, hot plugging is easy and I can daisy chain devices (I have three external firewire drives) with no problems. The firewire devices are detected easily by the PC also. I don't think there's an issue of quality - if the device is working properly then the information is getting through. There's bound to be someone on here who knows more about it than me.

Yes I have Flankers old Celinder. Its a great bass, and with the two Smith 5's and the Stingray I've got a quad of stunning basses that will cover nearly any playing situation I'm likely to encounter. Chris Celinder says he'd like it back if I ever choose to sell.

The important thing is that the reviews are there. Its great the number of contributions we've got already!

It could be great if we had sound clips too!

LOL!!

Looks like we'll end up setting a BWAG's forum up at this rate!

Kiwi's musical career is remarkable for completely avoiding any band with any claims to credibility, coolness or talent. He's tried to compensate for his sense of personal inadequacy by dominating as many bass forums and telling as many outrageous lies as he can in order to attract attention to himself.

He was introduced to Bassworld originally by Rich, who he later made a mod 3 years later because he only promotes his friends. He made millions out of sponsors on Bassworld and now lives in a 5 bedroom penthouse in a converted power station in Chiswick, and eats at Carluccio's most evenings on Chiswick High Road. He's also in a band with 12 female singers who can't seem to remain fully clothed in his presence. He has to leave gigs early less fights break out between the singers about who gets to go home with him. Kiwi's car is a McLaren F1 and only capable of taking three at most if he fits a small trailer on the back for his gear.

Kiwi also took all those spam emails seriously, now has a permenantly viagra'd appendage the size of No.1 runway at Heathrow, made yet more millions on the stock market with those share tips and the only thing bigger than his manhood is his ego. This makes some people with slightly smaller but equally distended egos very jealous, but Kiwi doesn't care. Basschat now his and he will mould it into a monument to his own greatness before charging everyone only slightly less than Talkbass in subscription fees to use it. When he's got as many people paying for it as possible, he'll plaster it in ads anyway.

Aahr ahaaaaar.

and a good one matey. We've only just got the forum up and running and haven't transferred the mods over yet. We'll do that this evening and sort out someone for this forum. Thanks for the tip

how about a union jack pattern?

Hi everyone,

Welcome at last to what we hope will be the final incarnation of Bassworld.

The last few months have been trying for everyone, but we're through the worst of it I hope and there's nothing preventing this site from being everything and more that BW wasn't. It's an opportunity for a clean break and there's no reason to look back from here on in!!

I just want to say a few shouts out first to:

[b]Phatmonkey[/b] - for being the technical genius behind this forum. If it wasn't for him, you wouldn't be enjoying the slick and secure site we now have.
[b]Ped[/b] - for dealing with Gerard in a way that I just don't have the patience or skills for.
[b]The Moderating team[/b] - particularly Slaphappygarry, Dood, Lukeward2004 and Machines for their advice and support. We're lucky to have them onboard.

Finally the biggest shout out goes to [b]YOU[/b] for your continued understanding, support and patience. Ped and I are really grateful that you've stuck with us and we hope that the forum, such as it is, will now be everything that you all want it to be and more.

ENJOY!!!

All the best,
CK

In order for everyone to get the best out of this section, its important that easy comparisons can be made between different reviews. For the sake of some consistency, we recommend using a format similar to that used in the [url="http://reviews.harmony-central.com/user_reviews/form/Electric+Bass"]Harmony Central reviews[/url].

We like the system they've used and we reproduce part of it here for your reference:

[i] * Select a numerical rating in each category (10 is the best, 1 is bad)
* Add comments in at least one text field (You must enter some comments that go deeper than saying it's good or bad. Surveys without valuable comments will not be used). There are a number of questions below that you can use as a guide.
* BE CRITICAL! Nothing is perfect. Superficial, glowing reviews may not get published.
* Resist the new product rush! Take some time and really work with the product. If you need to comment right away, make it clear you haven't used it extensively.
* Please include some of the specs too, since not everyone will know the model numbers and names alone.
* For manufacturers - We value your input, but DO NOT pose as a customer. If you want to address any comments on your product or refute the facts, you can use this form, but make it very clear you are responding to those comments as a manufacturer (and leave the sales pitch out please!) Companies that abuse this review system will be warned, and related reviews or comments may be removed. Additional instances of abuse will result in ineligibility to participate in user reviews for a period of one year.[/i]
