Oi, Wayne, Some blighter's nicked your video from youtube! Nowt there mate...

The Void - The Beatles :wacko: Black Dog - Led Zeppelin just love playing that one.

I have one & use it for sweeping sounds & as a tunable distortion. I've put some samples in the review section if you wanna hear it.

No probs here. I've managed to get a good sound that sits with the drums very nicely.

I've got the 102p also & have been tempted countless times to add an extension cab (it's gas from being on here!), but I haven't a need for one really & I do all sorts of sizes of gigs upto @ 300 folk often without me going thru the PA. I play in a pretty loud rock band with 2 guits & have no probs being heard when we're at full pelt (sometimes I'm asked to turn down). I use the moog filter to get some very bass heavy sub sounds & the 102p copes with it very nicely, shaking glass in doors etc.

[quote]I bet drummers get a lot more offers.[/quote] Finding one that can count & keep a steady tempo is a very very rare thing indeed. Back on topic, since I moved to Perth I have had a few offers from different bands & have been tempted, but the missus wouldn't like me to join any more (they can be hard work sometimes). I've met countless guitards here too.

Maybe he gets sweaty fingers & it's quicker than wiping them on his jeans/shirt?

Either Lidl or Ikea bags with some bubble wrap & gaffer tape. But I have the Roqsolid cover for my MB combo so a +1 for them from me.

If black polymer means the strings will look black instead of silver I hope they are not like the DR strings colour coated ones. I've had a few sets of the Peacock Blue strings which look fantastic when you first put them on but after a week or so they look scabby & sh!t. They was very bright sounding strings & do keep their brightness for ages but they don't keep the G string for ages, it lasts about a month (that's from about an hour's playing each day) then snaps.

I asked here if there is much difference between 4 & 8 ohm & got this reply: [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=39631"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=39631[/url] From my perspective, a 4 ohm cab is not as versatile as an 8 ohm as it means you're not gonna be able to put an ext cab on should you ever need to unless your amp can run at 2 ohms & the cab is still gonna produce 103db when your amp is topping it (or whatever it may be). Just thought I'd give you my findings from what I've learned here to see if it helps you any.

Something I noticed from reading that manual & I've noticed it before...The 4x10 has a usable response of 31hz to 13khz & the 1x15 has a usable response of 40hz to 13khz. Does this mean that if you was to compare each individually, the 4x10 would produce a deeper bass? I understand the frequency curve throughout would probably differ considerably as you moved up the octaves.

Early '80s Vox bass. But then again, it's the only P copy that I've had & it weighs about 3 ton.

Excellent stuff. I really fancy building some pedals but I fancy trying a BYOC kit from here first. [url="http://www.vibe-o-tronic.co.uk/"]http://www.vibe-o-tronic.co.uk/[/url]

Cheers, I removed the copper that I put on the cables but left it on the sides (shielding the sides was recommended in the moog forum). At rehearsals on Monday it had little or no buzz, so it could well be where it is in the house. I'm using a Godlyke PSU with a daisychain that does make a bit of squeal, but I think it's due to it being digital switching & if I roll off a bit of treble (VLE knob up a couple of notches does it) then it's gone.

I haven't tried many filter pedals but I'll nominate the Moogerfooger MF-101. Definitely the most versatile as you can have 4 expression pedals plugged in at once to control the parameters. I find one does the job tho.

Good shout on starting this topic. Helps identify what's most used for different styles of music (states the obvious ). I play a mixture of styles but mainly rock so I like the idea of using a compressor & an octaver & might get use from a chorus too. Just now I only have a filter & a MuRF (which does do some very convincing chorus like effects and has great analogue distortion) but fancy building some pedals such as BYOC.

Did you check both the fuse in the plug & any in the amp? Might be a damaged cable or a wire on the mains lead has come loose (such as one of the screws not being tight in the plug & a wire has come out, has happened to me before). If it's a kettle lead, try replacing it. If none of this works then I'd look to getting an engineer to look at it as Hubrad suggests.

Helloo, I've got a buzz! I got a MF-101 & it buzzes a bit. I shielded the sides with copper & still it buzzes. I have just tried putting copper foil around the wires from the PCB to the output & also around the wires from the PCB to the stomp switch and covered the foil with insulation tape & it still buzzes (maybe worse with that). I discovered that moving the cable from the MF-101 to the amp changes the level of buzz & if I hold the cable with 2 hands it goes almost away. I did this with a few cables & all was the same. Does anybody have any ideas on eliminating or reducing buzz, would copper shielded cables be the answer?

Haven't had a chance to get em up but I'll try & make a bit of time tomorrow if I can & will post here as soon as done with details of where they are.

I have the CMD102P too. Top bit of kit & surprisingly loud & can really get the lows shaking & weighs less than my 30 watt vox combo which measures about a third of the size! If you're near Dunblane on a monday night you can come & have a blast. Edit... It's loud enough for small to medium gigs without PA & if you needed more you can add a cab for the bigger gigs (or causing subsidence).

I just rememembered, I used to have as pair of Vox 4x10 pa speakers when I was in my early 20's. They was each about 5' high & about 1' wide & all vertically aligned. Just thought I'd share that.

I don't get it. Why so many pedals on a gigging board? I can understand collecting loads of different pedals & could have good fun doing so, but are 15-20 pedals needed for a gig? I'm not trying to bee cheeky or anything like that, just curious into the workings of it & how so many can be used in a gig set.

I tried changing the jumper over on my amp, still got the clean bass signal along side the effected one. Back into the front for me.

I always put my fx between bass & amp, but after reading this I have tried putting it in the loop. + side, I lose most of the high pitched squeal that was there from using the Godlyke PSU on the MF101 (the VLE got rid of this by turning to just above 9 oclock). - side, I need to pull the head out the combo to change the jumper as I get clean signal mixed with fx signal. Might suit some folk, doesn't suit me. But I'll try changing the jumper.
