[quote name='dood' timestamp='1502044482' post='3348957'] Haters gonna hate whatever, so I say: "Be proud and say that it's part of your technique." I choose to use this tool and I don't give a crap if people don't think I'm a great bassist. They're probably right anyway, but I'm enjoying myself. [/quote] They'd be wrong about that. You should be in the dictionary under 'awesome'

[quote name='ead' timestamp='1501955203' post='3348487'] I stick a bit of foam next to bridge for light deadening. Pretty much FOC if you have bought anything with a bit of packaging. [/quote] That's a different sort of mute, though. A wrap will only dampen open strings.

[quote name='bazztard' timestamp='1501938538' post='3348349'] Si Si Si , and I had so much respect for you OK I still have the utmost respect for you, but a Fretwrap does it a lot better as it surrounds the string like a nut slot does and does a better job of muting unwanted overtones etc. [/quote] Si just likes an excuse to pop into 'Accessorise'

I was given one at some point and I use it on my fretless to help mask my poor tekkers

[quote name='Bigwan' timestamp='1501849788' post='3347765'] Don't see why you couldn't as it's basically the same as sticking a capo on the 12th fret of a standard 5 string. I see Wingbass offer an option to have an EHX Micro POG built into the control cavity... Interesting! [/quote] That makes sense - maybe I should have bought it, I sent a 'best offer' but his counter was still to steep. It's gone now, who was it!

[quote name='paul_5' timestamp='1501603838' post='3345858'] A smidgen of overdrive to add some extra harmonic content and growl. [/quote] I've been playing with this and do find it adds a nice warmth and bloom to the notes. Really tasty and can be quite subtle. It kind of gives you that growl over the whole range which sounds lovely. Personally I have an octave, stereo chorus with separate depth/speed for the high and low frequencies (shallower and faster with less clean mix on the top end). I also use some reverb, and switch between room and hall settings depending on what I'm doing, though live I don't use any. I also like a delay, slapping back at me with 50% of the original volume, again in stereo. I also find it handy to have the high mids at my fingertips so I can adjust the gain and frequency centre on the fly, which opens out lots of sounds. Most of the time though it's clean, rear pickup, reverb.

Yeah very expensive. I'd like to try one though but only if I could stick a GK pickup in it and control synths with it I think the scale length might pose problems though.

Was that refund burning a hole in your Payapl account

Hi Andy I'll PM you.

I'm going to call Nottingham Nothingham from now on

[quote name='Nothingman' timestamp='1501422345' post='3344551'] Cheers. Good man. [/quote] Actually no need to email, just done it! Cheers

I'll sort it for you later. Can you just send me an email to remind me? [email protected] Cheers and welcome back ped

[quote name='r16ktx' timestamp='1501061831' post='3342121'] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Wouldn't a really minimalist system would be a Zoom B3 (or similar) with an iPad into the aux, a bass, and headphones for monitoring?[/font][/color] [/quote] I was going to say - like the OP I was looking for al all in one solution so I could play music and play bass at my desk. I ended up with quite a complicated system which works really well albeit using headphones rather than speakers. Basically: Computer + Bass --into-- VB99 --into-- HIFI + Headphones + TC BH800 into Tecamp Bassboard This way I can use the VB99 as a controller for the music on my computer, feeding the bass to the bassboard for some bottom shaking and the rest to the hifi, and when I want to play bass I simply plug it in and switch to a bass patch on the VB99 instead of my HIFI setting (with bass input off). I get full stereo effects and sound through the headphones and can record everything in real time on the computer and take off my headphones to hear it from the HIFI instantly. For a while I also ran two bass cabs in stereo from a power amp (also connected to the setup above) but found I much preferred using headphones. The cabs (SWR 4x8) sounded really good with music and bass, to be honest - though I can't recall ever being able to hear both at the same time very clearly.

Hi, it was deleted by MB1 for some reason, he'll be along shortly to tell us why!

My VB99 has a Mutron III type filter with a down sweep. I haven't really played with it yet but I know you were looking into the Roland at one point... nice to hear from you, hope all is well

Yep Stuart is a good friend of BC and a very nice bloke. Glad you got it sorted and that BC was helpful to you. Always nice to hear

[quote name='dmccombe7' timestamp='1499279645' post='3330524'] Testing testing 123... [/quote] That was me - can confirm it all works for me, logged in as you... another email sent!

[quote name='dmccombe7' timestamp='1499243617' post='3330167'] Thanks Gary I've tried what was suggested yesterday but no success. Its only BC i'm having any issue with. Dave [/quote] Hi Dave The only think I can think of is to delete your cache memory after logging out of BC, or just doing it anyway even if you can't log out. That could sort things out your end. Send me an email [email protected] and perhaps I can log in as you and have a look at your settings though it seems the issue is at your end. Can you log in on your phone or another device to confirm that? Cheers ped

Hi, no I didn't. I wasn't connected to anything else though.
