In my opinion, I would put the HPF at the front of the chain but possibly after any DI. That will make it easier on the rest of your signal chain.

All these confirmations just after someone promising to show us his trussocks! To be fair, one of each bass is enough.

Yes, threads that I subbed'd to can sometimes get boring, so at least once a day I have a quick trawl, then I look through the threads😁

Are there any decent headset mics?

I agree with @Phil Starr. It does seem that many bassists run the PA as well and that gives it a twist that only we understand. That is not to say only bassists understand PAs, far from it. However we do have a unique viewpoint, especially from the low end. With the drive to FRFR and modelling, plus then use of many active PA speakers for Backline, the areas are melding. As for the argument as to where it should go, There is a good argument to make the DIY Effects thread a Sub Forum but it is not yet deemed worthy. That is not a dig but just to say it does make it easier to find PA/FoH threads. It will eventually find its natural home.

So true.

https://sites.google.com/site/leonardoguitarresearch/lgrp-network-newsletter/lgr-network-luthiers This is a group of luthiers that each produced two identical acoustic guitars. In blind tests, neither luthiers nor classical guitarists could tell the difference between exotic woods and native European woods.

I have to say I have no knowledge of upright bass although in tests at the South West Bash last year, smaller cabs/ drivers seem to be preferred for DB. Whether that is also true for upright bass (EUB) I do not know. As for amps, something you know can be set flat would be a good starting point.

This is a problem as you may find earlier posts lose their images.

This is what MAJ say on the subject: The Performer Range - Super 60, Power Baby, Performer, Bass Baby, Bass Machine. When these arrived for evaluation and comment on my bench as the replacements for the superb music range products, I opened them up expecting something else (in the words of Eddie Cochran). Not so, I was very disappointed. The build was again awkward, with a thick wiring umbilical between front and rear panels, and the whole build method appeared to be a backward step from the previous fine efforts. But they had used junction fets as building blocks, mixed with bipolar transistors and op amps, and had a mosfet output stage. They sounded very good, and the Bass Machine with its 250 Watts output was the most powerful Bass amp going. Great. But the input fets were gate unprotected, and they went down EVERYWHERE. By the time HH issued an official protection fix (A year later!) we’d been doing this anyway. These amps cosmetically strongly resembled the American Acoustic amps being imported at that time – with the pastel colour front panels - although they were electrically quite different. No disrespect to anyone but I don’t think HH should have been concerned at all, or chased this particular dragon – the Acoustic amps were good working stuff but blandly uninteresting and just about as unreliable as everything else of the period. OPINION: Actually very good sounding kit but heavy, complicated, awkward build, and not very reliable for the same reasons. And not yet very collectable. Cheap now. Difficult to mend/service cost effectively. Footswitch data see homepage. The Studio Series Studio 50 The earliest HH studio series amp, single channel with reverb 50 watt (darlington) op stage, 1 x 12" combo. Basic, good sounding, good build, bulletproof, heavy. If you see a head version on ebay, someone has chopped one up - they never made it as a head. Many were sold to schools/colleges - these are a dam good buy if offered. Studio 30 and Studio 60 Guitar amps. Sold alongside the Performer range as a lower power, lower cost option (first time buyers?) They were actually very good sounding single channel combo's, and all had the high voltage FET input stages and Hitachi mosfet output stage, reverb and distortion etc. Studio 60B Bass amp. Similar, with high voltage FET input stage and mosfet output stage. Compressor facility. Studio 100 Guitar amp. Available as head or 212 combo, with reverb and distortion. One pc board design with preamp similar to the Performers but using transistor output stage similar to AS00014. Bassamp 100 Bass amplifier, often confused with VS Bassamp. The front panel of this one does not light up green, again one pc board design with preamp similar to the Bass Machines but using transistor output stage similar to AS00014. Paramid EQ and (very good) opto compressor. Was available as head or combo. IMPORTANT: In their infinite wisdom, HH emblazoned the Studio30/60 guitar combos with the "Power Baby" logo, The Studio 60B with the "Bass Baby" logo, the Studio 100 with the "Performer" logo, and the Bassamp100 with the "Bass Machine" logo. Dohhh. The confusion they greated between these Studio series amps and the Performer range is now ledgendary. Please be specific if you are asking for service information or advice. Its a real headache. Easiest way, if you think you have a have a "Performer" amp, for example, tell me if it is single channel or two channel with sound switch. That should do it... OPINION: Studio 50 - Great basic 50 Watt combo. Studio 30/60/60B - Look a bit odd, but good sound, serviceable, well liked. Studio 100 - I know the combo looks like an old gas oven but was good sounding and powerful and has proved to be quite reliable. Bassamp 100 - ditto but trying to be a VS Bassamp, but good sound and reliable also.

The images don't work.

These are getting close to their 60th birthday. I will dig back into my archives, but don't hold your breath. No Joy, but email MAJ at http://www.majelectronic.co.uk/ there is almost nothing he does not know about HH,

A retube would smash the budget!

No playlist can be created on iPhone or iPad.

That is almost exactly how I use groups on the Ui. Vocals, Guitars and Drums 🤞

Can you elaborate? What is this monitor app of which you speak? Thanks for the review, it is great and highlights some of the features I use and need that are currently missing. I remember the first iterations of the Soundcraft software/firmware were not great and the later upgrade gave them to me. At the moment, the lack of sub groups would be an issue to me, it’s how I control the drums. Mute FX would be a help.

As I have said before, I can use the external router with my Soundcraft Ui16 but I also have an adapter that allows wired Ethernet connection from m6 iPad. So I can wander and set up using WiFi but use a wired connection on the stage. The UI’s control is via a web browser so it is app and operating system Independant. On your basic issue, I would never do a gig with the internal router and I would not use a Behringer/Midas wireless for the same reason. I have lost control of both Soundcraft and Behringer at rehearsal and his respectively. I do have 2021 models of iPad and Android tables plus an Android Tablet at least 7 years old and a Gen 3 iPad, 10 years old. I could do a report on all these and how well they perform if there is any interest.

Thanks for the info. I have to admit I have down on Ferry, I think he over sings, but I do take bits from the Ferry version when we play it.

Sorry to hear that. People think that COVID is done, but we may be in for a shock this Winter. There is a new variant of concern, but It's nothing to worry about unless they give it a name (letter actually, Greek alphabet like Omicron).

You ain’t whistling Dixie.

Live and Let Die by G&R?

Yes I like both.

Add the abortion that was the rework of Canned Heat’s Let’s Work Together by Brian Ferry.

Sarcasm does not become you Sir

I could dig the Focusrite Solo out of the garage.
