I have never known that, they seem to go down when unused for me Its not an economy I understand - I get a box of 10 batteries off ebay and if I ever measure anything less than 9V I throw the battery out (recycle obvs) and put a new one in, maybe environmentally not as good, but I would never put a known dying battery in a bass for a practice or any other reason, I do have a list of when I last changed them though, there are a few batteries that are several years old. I have a hohner with a red LED for power on.. however, it has no power or circuit board!

Apparently according to the description it has 20 frets. Do they come in a separate bag? If you happen to have another neck, its fine for £1.75!

It seems to have the same logo and switch arrangement as Geezer Butlers Live Aid one (but not the same pickups), I presume coil tap and series / parallel, you should be able to see from the wiring.

9V batteries stay higher than 9v most of their life. if I was measuring a battery to see if it was good, and it was a normal PP3, If I measured it and it was below 9v I would throw it away.

I have taken a bass on a train. Never occurred to me to check whether it was allowed!

Odd - also on a macbook pro with safari, when I select next page it scrolls up to the paging bar, so below the header and above all the posts

It does make sense that if they were going to do a tour (as is rumoured every year) they would pick breezy sports as a platform to launch it instead of, say, a global news outlet or their own website!

I have an Argon 8, which is the one with fewer keys (but exactly the same synth). I also have a Carbon 5, which is the smaller carbon. It is a very deep synth which definitely has its own character, most of that comes from its wavetables, it sounds fairly digital. Its fun to play with though I have never played it live. You can't - it is 'just a synth with wavetables' but that doesn't detract from what those wavetables are, and how many there are (and that you have multiple wavetables that you can merge between. I have a synth you can load wavetables on, the Blofeld, and I don't. If you are after a synth with its own character and not trying to emulate anything else, it is a great synth - I don't know what the 61 key keyboard is like, but the smaller one on mine is a really nice keybed.

Depends what platform you are on. If it was recorded with an iOs thing, such as an iPhone, you can just rotate it with the rotate tool in photos. I assume if you are using another platform, similar tools are available. But you probably need to trim the 'pre-rotate' part of the video anyway!

ok, puzzlingly I did a trial with the WS90 and a cable through to a spark 40 with everything turned up and an overdrive on, and I couldn't tell the difference between the wireless and cable. So I thought maybe it was the WS90 Rx connected to the back of the Mod Dwarf, so i tried that, and again, no actual noise until I play with my 'whole lot of love full distortion' patch, and no difference between the cable and the wireless, so I think I must be looking in the wrong place. Which is a concern, I can't think of any more places!

I might temporarily go back to using that while I decide, as the compression is better than the hiss The overdrive doesn't affect the noise of the unit, but as you are amplifying the sound more to overdrive, a larger part of the signal becomes the hiss, to the point where if nothing else is playing, the hiss is pretty loud. Obviously in the scope of a full band playing you don't really notice it, so I don't worry too much but I am doing an event mixed by someone else in a few weeks, and they are certainly going to have an issue with it. It is possible the hiss is inteference with something else I gig with - I have wireless IEMs and there are other wireless things around, but that doesn't help much if we need those things.

So I am looking for yet another wireless system, so checking on what options are around. I had the smoothhound, it fell apart after a lot of gigs and I sent it back to get it fixed. In the mean time I had a Lekato 2.4GHz which worked fine, but I lost (found much later, still use in the house). I got a cuvave wireless which broke. Then I got the Lekato WS70, which was good to use but it became apparent after a while there was a compressing effect on using it, you could hear the end of quiet notes being cut off. So I got a WS90. This doesn't have the compressing but has a high noise floor, so when using a drive, it is unacceptably loud. I could go back to the smoothhound but I don't want to make a space on the pedalboard for a receiver. So I am wondering if the Fender Telepath or Xvive A58 was any good?

What do you mean 'mystified'? I think everyone knows what it is, I think the conversation was whether people thought it was something interesting or not.

So I guess the diffrence is if you are buying something for an investment or an instrument to play

Rehursing with the metal group in a south facing building that is all glass down one side, I am glad I brought a fan, it didn't do much but it did something! The music went well, but the heat wasn't that much fun!

Thats crazy - I thought that was the purpose of Reverb not facebook marketplace!

Always seems to go down when we throw it in at the end of our set

Marginally out with a tuner, maybe not, audiably out, yes. Not that I have ever really checked the intonation at the 12th fret, I tend to only do it at the 19th.

according to the rumble 100 circuit diagram which is on line, the main volume is actually before the EQ, so yes, the volume affects the outputs. The circuit doesn't seem to have a pre/post DI switch so I assume it is before the change noted by Dad above. It does seem odd, on my amps (BAM200, TC450, ABM600, CTM100, etc) or even the ME90B effects, the DI wasn't effected by the volume*, which seems the right way. * note, the DI on the ME90B isn't affected by the volume knob, which changes the overal volume of the jack output, but it is affected by the volume pedal, which again seems right as that is an effect.

As I am sure you are aware, it is because all this modern music is just boom boom boom and you don't need a good bass for that Or maybe it is because older music was made by fewer people, who happened to be good, like all the motown song were actually only played by small numbers of musicians, with a large output, whereas in the 80s there was a much larger democracy of players, some good, some bad, and a large number of them only playing the bass because they were the worst guitarist. Then of course, music died in the 90s, and it was just whatever the TB303 put out

I had the same a few times. I have one of the old Evox which is wood and flat that you can put a pint on, and one of the new, that is not flat, and you can't. So I put the wood one near me so I can tell people not to do it (and I put stuff on it(). I never bother with the other one as it is clearly not flat. But at a gig on new years some woman put a full pint on it, the slopey surface, that is vibrating like mad. Clearly it fell straight off, mostly into the guitarists pedalboard. In her defence I guess she was so drunk I am not sure how she was still upright.

What monitor do you mean? I am not sure I have ever pressed or noticed a utility icon

Thanks for that, been listening to them a lot since this
