    The wonderous world of pitch to cv and or midi

    [quote name='Matty' post='717991' date='Jan 19 2010, 04:12 PM']I've heard good things about the G2M, and for the price, its just great value.
    B2M will be on my buy list when it's released![/quote]

    I have a G2M, works pretty well on a standard guitar and seems a good solution although latency is still present.

    On bass it would not work well at all, I even put the signal through a Micro POG with just the oct up and still no real joy.

    The other problem I've found with the G2M is that I have needed to turn off all pitch bend options i my software to get a clear note.

    If they do a "B2M" I'll give it a go but I doubt the results will be gig worthy.

    Just my two-peneth.

    Bought his Victor Bailey acoustic bass.

    A true gent, let me pop round to try it through his rig, a cup of tea and some bass babble later I am now the proud owner of this fine instrument. Its in minty condition and sounds fantastic.

    He also owns a very fine '63 P bass that Is the lightest and best playing I have tried. Lucky man.

    To top it all he even gave me a lift back to the station.

    Thanks again Chris, it was good to meet you.

    Bought his Variax 700 bass. It was in almost mint condition for a great price.

    He was very helpful and let me try it out surrounded by his mouthwatering collection of vintage bass amps.

    Great guy to deal with, a welcome addition to the forum.

    [quote name='Marcus' post='693792' date='Dec 26 2009, 04:10 PM']Anyone bought a 751 then ?

    Had a few 750's and considering the 751 as my "come-back" amp !!

    opinions welcome

    Thanks Guys

    Hello mate, I've played through a number of 751's all through Aggie 810 cabs and they sound every bit as good as the 750 I got from you. However I don't see any reason in selling the 750 in order to get a 751.
    I would say that the 751 is a great amp and would be an ideal way to start your "come-back"
    All the best,

    [quote name='jembullo' post='691639' date='Dec 22 2009, 04:40 PM']Hello Folks

    Here we have for sale my USA P Bass with S1 switching. It's in fabulous condition with only the usual minor surface scratches(if any) that are too hard to photograph.
    Previous owner cd_david can also vouch for how nicely this looks and plays.

    Gold scratch plate was added afterwards, I still have the white one that originally came with the bass. This bass comes with the Fender moulded hard case plus all the case candy.

    I believe this is a 2005 vintage.

    Sad to let this go because it is such a nice sounding and playing instrument but sadly it doesn't get enough usage.

    No trades thanks. I can ship but it will be additional to the price of the bass.



    Cheers

    +1 for the EBS,

    This is the one that always comes out with me. great tracking and warm tone, in a bomb proof box.

    I also use a Micro POG, This is a digital octaver therefore the tracking is perfect even on a low E. Not as warm as the EBS though. I tend to use the POG for the octave up and the EBS for Octave down.

    Hi all,

    I'm looking to move this on, bought from M-Y-N on this forum about 8 months ago. This bass has a great low action P/J P'up config with active / passive switch, Hipshot D-tuner, pre-amp etc. Its in very good condition. I have added a Badass II bridge that I will include in the sale as it does significantly improve the playability of this bass. I will include the original Fender bridge too. Also comes with the Fender gig bag. I've even got the Fender manual, sticker and tags if you're really anal (like me)

    I bought this with the intention of changing the Pickups, electronics and pre-amp but have never gotten round to it, on gigs I end up taking either my Jap P or CS Jazz bass so this just sits around wanting to be played.

    Looking for £400

    Can been seen on the far right below:

    I'm based in North London so if you do want to try it please feel free to pop over and I'll put the kettle on.

    SOLD** Accugroove Tri112L

    [quote name='phuze' post='586695' date='Sep 1 2009, 05:40 PM']So I've decided to move on my Tri112L Accugroove cab.

    I guess you can get the specs from here :

    [url="http://www.accugroove.com/"]http://www.accugroove.com/[/url]

    Those of you that are in the know will be fully aware how awesome this cab is.
    They retail (at the Bass Gallery) at £645 and I am including a padded cover which I think also sells for another £100.

    I've only used this cab (gigs & rehearsals) no more than a handful of times, so it's in perfect condition and just over a year old.

    The asking price ? £450. I can't be arsed with the shipping so it will be pick-up only and I'm based in Guildford.

    Here's some pics (sorry, taken on a phone). Have a think and let me know if you're interested.[/quote]

    I've tried this cab and can vouch for the great tone it gives. Its as good as new too.

    Bargain. Phuze is a top chap to deal with.

    Best of luck with the sale mate.

    [quote name='thisnameistaken' post='480621' date='May 6 2009, 07:42 AM']What are you using on the Prunes & Custard and the X-Blender? Why not use that on the others?[/quote]

    Yeah they all have velcro on the bottom, the P & C and X-blender are v light pedals and adhere well to the board thus no need for the cable tie.

    The heavier pedals pull themselves off if they get a bit of a bash or worse still are left to the baggage handlers when taken overseas.

    Short of screwing them down I see the cable tie as a cheap and simple solution.

    [quote name='truegeminis' post='470613' date='Apr 23 2009, 12:37 PM']Can anybody who already uses these cabs tell me/reassure me that a Berg 1x12 would be sufficient for most gigs? I play in a couple of function bands and a 6-piece ska band (2 guitars, drums, bass, sax and trumpet). I'd say that the majority of gigs I do have the bass D.I.'d, but just in case I want a cab that is going to cope.

    Any opinions, experiences are greatly appreciated.[/quote]

    Hi, I use 2 Berg 1 X 12 cabs with a Mark Bass F1 head. I play in a pretty loud Rock band most of the time and I would not leave the house without both cabs. That said I'm often just using backline.

    I did however use just the one cab on a function the other day and it was fine in terms of volume.

    I've never tried just one cab when using the house monitors, but I suspect it'd be fine

    Depending on how loud the Ska band is I think you could probably get away with one cab but the headroom you get with both cabs is excellent.

    I must say that I've not tried the Schroeder cabs but the F1 / Berg combination is the best compact rig I've ever played through.

    Hope that helps
