I use Bose AE2W for music and bass playing (using the optional cable for the latter) they sound near enough exactly like my bass does to the desk and they handle the range of the instrument really well. Can be had fairly cheap too.

Shared on the BC FB page. Sorry to hear the news and keep us up to date.

He’s gone now folks.

Just double checked the thread title, thought it must have been “How dare you play reggae”

Phew ok guys back on topic

Stringnavigator I’ll ask you nicely to go and do something else before you get a Basschat holiday. I’ve spoken to you before about that chip on your shoulder and it looks like you’ve ignored it. So last warning. Thanks.

OK great - I'll send you a PM to test, you should get an email.

Test

Looks awesome and I know they sound fantastic too. Good buy!! Enjoy!

Another thing to recommend is that the strap weighs virtually nothing.

@Dood does the best demo vids

Got it from Absolute Music, forgot it was actually £19.99! Shop were great, basically next day delivery I think https://www.absolutemusic.co.uk/ibanez-bws90-bass-workshop-guitar-strap.html

Bacchus are excellent. Are you sure the pull pot isn’t a series/parallel switch?

I’ve tried lots of straps now and each has had something which spoilt it. I took a punt on this Ibanez strap I saw for £30 and I’m pretty chuffed. My bass isn’t heavy but I do like the feel of wider straps. This one is really grippy and looks to be well made. One thing I like is that the strap itself is really thin. I’ve tried Mono straps before and they’re too thick for me. Anyway just putting it out there as a potential for those of you looking for an alternative to leather or the usual Mono or Comfort strap options. Excuse poor pics but it’s called an Ibanez BWS90 they do a more Mono style thick version too. Cheers

@The59Sound do you need to take a break?! How about it, or do you think you can behave like a grown up for a bit? Calm down.

Thanks, that looks neat and the rack format would work well in my office. Will check it out.

This looks good! https://www.steinigke.de/en/mpn10355025-omnitronic-lh-025-3-channel-stereo-mixer.html

Thanks, yeah that looks good but as you say I don't need an audio interface. I'm not sure if those inputs are stereo, either... Another random question but assuming the device I want has a single stereo 1/4" input (as opposed to two single L+R 1/4") can I just use a simple adapter to combine both into a single stereo plug? I'm 99% sure I've done this before. Think I might try that cheapo thing in my third post and see how it is. It's nice that it uses batteries as there's likely to be less hum and it's not going to be used loads so I don't want to spend much ideally.

At the other end of the scale... this would be bang on but sounds a bit crap build quality... https://www.amazon.co.uk/SoundLab-Channel-Stereo-Microphone-Mixer/dp/B0048FBBS8/ref=pd_sbs_267_5?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B0048FBBS8&pd_rd_r=ba90aa25-f4b9-11e8-bf03-fd1a6263a13f&pd_rd_w=Sa12m&pd_rd_wg=mwE3n&pf_rd_i=desktop-dp-sims&pf_rd_m=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE&pf_rd_p=18edf98b-139a-41ee-bb40-d725dd59d1d3&pf_rd_r=AR14V1MND3MK3N4RFP1K&pf_rd_s=desktop-dp-sims&pf_rd_t=40701&psc=1&refRID=AR14V1MND3MK3N4RFP1K

This would work but a bit speedy, and I don't need that many inputs or recording functionality, really https://zoom-na.com/products/production-recording/live-sound-recording/zoom-livetrak-l-12

Hi folks I need an all in one unit that will take (at a minimum) two outputs from a digital drum kit (L+R) and from my bass (L+R) and send to two headphone outputs. In the past we've used a mini mixer to take all the inputs then used a headphone splitter thing to multiply the headphone connections but it was always a bit faffy and noisy. We don't need any cab sim, individual mix or effects on the unit (like the jamhub and Roland unit) because we do all that at source, so it just needs to be as simple as my first line says. Impossible to find? Cheers ped P.S if you want to get really into the details, we're connecting a VB99 and a TD12 so we can both hear each other and jam.

Ah yeah I’m not sure who played on this track but it’s great, the production in general sounds excellent to me

Two of my faves. David Barard with Dr. John, playing a Sadowsky low and loose Freddie Washington playing a Smith for Donald Fagen. Always loved the Smith sound, this is a good example Interested to hear other people's faves...
