Or at least one of them

Yeh, I know what you are thinking, a pigeon? where is the other one. Well, at that moment he was out in the hallways, but now he is back on his clock stand where he belongs. I still don't have a camera, but in general it looks like this:

My desk is its normal state of messy, although it also has a pigeon on it at the moment, but I don't have a camera!

£10- not very micro!

Not quite seeing it - if you want a multi effect there are plenty that size, or if you want an optional single effect that you can pick from a large amount, there are plenty of options for that, that isn't this, don't want too many options, there are a lot of far cheaper ones that don't need a phone to set up. And almost all cheaper and not needing to buy the 17th onward effect. Their selling point here is 'We know everyone else has already done it, but we are boss'.

An outdoor 1 hour gig in the afternoon sun with a PA designed for the job that someone else set up less than an hour from home. Or a normal pub gig but starting at 7 instead of 9 with a responsive crowd

Not in an irrational predjudices thread it isn't!

Well, I had 10 GU10 50W light bulbs in my kitchen. i replaced them for LEDs, so now it is 25W instead of 0.5kW of lights. Looking on the net, it says the Gigbar 2 is 6x 3.5W Quad-colour LEDs + Strobe: 4x 1.8W Dual-colour LEDs plus 6x 6W LEDs. So that would be 60W if they were all on at the same time (ie, all on bright white and not cycling colours). Yes, but it is complicated and you would need to know what your duty cycle of your amp use is. I mean if you are playing a thrash song with bass / drums / vocals in the PA, you would use a lot more power than if you are were playing 7 nation army for instance, which is 80% gap. Next time you have a gig measure it, and then you will know for the following sale!

That is power put to the speaker, if they were running flat out with a constant signal. so the only way that would be the source is if your system was 100% efficient which is impossible. You are putting far less power out in volume, but using more input than a 1:1 to input power to output power. Seems a lot - how many liights do you have? ok, that is a better way of working it out, so about 800W for that?

That would be flat out with a sine wave or something going through it. Chance are it would be a 10th of that. However, for a gig, two PA speakers, mixer, pedalboards, its going to add up, especially as gigging in the cold will be less than that total value. Its going to be a 'how long is a piece of string' question, that depends on your setup. Set everything up through a power measurment plug and play for 10 minutes, multiply by 12 and see what you get!

I haven't had those but I am one for buying synth pedals and not using them, so this would be right up my street

and on the ME90B

There is a gig we play in a semi permenant outdoor area next to a pub. A tthe weekend the guitarist was getting shocks through his guitar, but the worst one was last year when we were there when it had been raining, the guitarist sat on the floor which had a puddle on it, and then when singing got a shock to his mouth (which stopped him singing). I have tested it with a tester, it says it is fine apart from the voltage being at 209V (and having 1v N-E), but it certainly isn't right there.

Keep an eye on the DJ then!

I guess that means you need to define what a typical 5 is. I mean my rick 5 is exactly the same width as the rick 4, wheras my typical 5s are between 60mm and 70mm at the bridge where I know a lot of people have crazy wide basses that are almost 60mm for just the 4 strings. I really don't believe that your hand manages to fail to work properly with 10mm extra width.

They really aren't. As presumably a 4 is compared to a 3 string bass?

I was thinking of making a small battery powered pedalboard based around a valeton GP-5, and maybe a tonex one.

Pointless started in 2009, so you could have seen it!

I just use it for a couple of songs that need gang vocals, so everything all the way up. Normal bvs I don't use anything

One of those got sold at the last bass bash!

My critical mass has been my only vocal pedal for years. Mine sound great.

Sign me up! Well, I had a Kay, it was about the same thing.

Not particularly, but as a fact it has a very good.. well, its currently an F# but it was good when it was a B! But I would say, as above, the best B of all was the NS bass B, with a bow.

Songs for the next week are: Slipnot - duality Creed - overcome Sum41 - in too deep offspring - kids aren't alright weezer - pork and beans and hashpipe muse - unravelling first couple are tricky as I don't actually know them, last one is tricky because, well, it just is!

Is that word Woooahh?
