    Best of luck, I'd love to make it but looks like I'll be away My band cover Dancin' in the Moonlight - out of interest do you phase or flange the intro riff?

Sound: This is a very good video from another VS with Klopmann pickups, sounds the same as mine (although the playing is better!): You can also hear it live in action on my Soundcloud feed: [url="https://soundcloud.com/the_expandables/sets/live-march-2014"]https://soundcloud.c...live-march-2014[/url] More pictures: Thanks for looking! Cheers Kev **edit** there is a small nick on the headstock top edge, just about visible in the close up pic

    M@23, sorry forgot to upload my settings! Here they are: The method I used to get there was watching the 'comp' light during a bassline which starts with a loud G on the E string, then a fiddly pull-off and hammer-on involving the D and A strings. Basically the hammer-on in particular was being overwhelmed, so I twiddled the threshold to make sure that the initial G was well compressed and the hammer-on not at all. Sounds much clearer now! Good luck with the gig - one other quirk is that the compressor light is VERY bright on a dark stage, so I sometimes put a bit of foam over it.

    I've been a MB Compressore user for about one year now, including five pub gigs. I play a Sandberg California VS (P bass) through a Genz Benz Shuttlemax 12.2 and two Baer ML112 cabs to cut through vocals, two guitars, sax, harmonica and piano. The music is blues/upbeat rhythm & blues (Gary Moore, Nine Below Zero, etc.) and I just use the Compressore to take some mud out of fast lines and to tame the E string and hence avoid overpowering low frequency boom. Lots of tweakability, and very quiet, only minor downer is that it runs on an 18V PSU only (which is provided). PS before anyone reading this thread gets a compressor they should read the Ovnilab site, contains the most detailed reviews I've seen for both the Markbass and MXR (and loads others!!!): [url="http://www.ovnilab.com/reviews/markbass.shtml"]http://www.ovnilab.com/reviews/markbass.shtml[/url] [url="http://www.ovnilab.com/reviews/mxrbass.shtml"]http://www.ovnilab.com/reviews/mxrbass.shtml[/url]

    [quote name='JTUK' timestamp='1399278486' post='2442602'] I wonder what people mean by 'boom'... I would call it just a bassier sound which you might want to roll off, [/quote] Good point! "Distorted throbbing bass especially in the room corners" is what I meant (need a catchy term for that...) [quote name='JTUK' timestamp='1399278486' post='2442602'] No boom, no gamma, but the 212 and 210 stood on the 212 casters. Best sound I've had for ages, loved it. [/quote] Amen to that. Dodgy room cured by decoupling.

    Bank Holiday bump!

    The vertical ML112 stack worked brilliantly, thanks for the tip Roger! I didn't get to hear myself through it from the front of house (obviously) but the support band's Jazz bass was one of the best bass sounds I've heard.
