I have a helix HX, a SY200 and a jamman solo that plays samples. The Helix is in the effects loop of the SY200, the Jamman goes into the effects return. The effects return is the last block in the chain (after the effects) on the helix so it gets neither the effects of the SY or the effects in the HX

I use van damme / Neutrik jack cables from eBay, they don't cost much and I have never had them go wrong. Also they are a different colour so I can recognise them easily. I have never had a fender cable that hasn't failed, or knew of anyone else having them (the fabric covered ones), although they have the replacement thing, which is handy as I have used it, I have one at home, I wouldn't gig with it. I also have a whirlwind cable from the early 90s Oh I have a planet waves cable with a switch on it. Works fine but I think it is one of the oversize things, as there are some sockets it seems too tight for.

I doubt that you could get that many people at the bar, so they probably had to wait and hope he finished?

and then we would be expecting the next one in 2041!

i love that video, he is putting as much effort into doing that with the kids than he is live, and he is having a great time. Its true to say that none of my youth bands had a drummer like that to play with!

The Pneuma drum video? That is a good one.

I have never seen a chapman stick in an actual shop. I have only really seen one advertised in an actual shop and that was crazy money.

I moved to the states in the mid/late 90s and sold all my music stuff. While I was there i bought a guitar and synth so played those. When I came back all my stuff was still on a boat waiting to get back and would be a while, so I walked into a second hand guitar shop* and thought, well, I had a guitar when it came back, i would get a bass, but I didn't have much money as my company weren't paying us reliably and we just had to get a new flat and stuff. There was a cheap 5 string bass with narrow string spacing that looked ok, and played ok. i had never had a 5, but it was cheap and thought why not. That was the only bass i had for 8 years so by the time I had a desire to get a new bass, i had got used to the 5, and though my new fancy bass was 4 string, and obviously better, I was still playing the 5 string more. 5 strings are niche as people didn't sell them. People didn't sell them as 5 strings are niche. * Portsmouth was pretty blessed by guitar shops in the 80s/90s.

Close. An 'apartment' is what you Americans would call a 'flat'. An 'Apartment' over here would be considered a more expensive or flashier 'flat'.

Not surprisingly because I got a flute that didn't have a silver mouth piece and caused a huge reaction on my lips which hurt quite a bit. Its easier (and looks better) getting silver than putting tape over it! Glad I am not a discerning high level player then as it isn't good enough for me. it obviously is or they wouldn't exist, and I have seen them.

Yeh, but what sort of carbon fibre, and what sort of glue? Makes a difference!

True, like vaccines, global warming, and moon landings!

Why would you need to tune? Just buy a bass that is in tune in the first place! At the risk of falling into a 4 yorkshireman sketch, my dads parents always had an outside loo until my gran died in 1987, and my grandad got a flat (with an inside loo). Not only that, they had a tin bath that they used in the kitchen (which was tiny, both the bath and the kitchen). As a kid, I was not a great fan of going there!

I am talking about what the thread has been talking about for the thread has been about for the last few pages, I have literally no clue what you are talking about with the deaf and blind people.

Yes, sometimes their estimates are way out!

I doubt it was a consideration, they couldn't keep doing the same, the songwriter wasn't there any more, so they just continued. They almost certainly lost fans and they gained more. I honestly think the whole argument is just a misunderstand in the words, not the concepts. When I go and buy a bass, I play it and I either enjoy playing it or I don't. I listen to the sound and not once have I ever thought 'I bet an audience would like the sound of this', and I seriously doubt anyone has. It is all 'about me' when selecting equipment, which is why we are getting different stuff, apart from those people who get some instrument because it matches, and I guess that is restricted mostly to people in tribute groups or very specific genres of music (and here I am aware that I played motown on a shuker uberhorn). Learning music can be either incredibly selfish if you are self taught or very public if you are classically trained, where you learn to play the right way for exams, and have to learn what people want to hear and play it in the right way. I remember my mum getting annoyed I was playing the same thing over and over, becuase i liked the sound of it. What I mean is that I think there is less distance from the two extremes of this thread than it would seem. I play cover band stuff in public because my own stuff wouldn't be interesting to anyone. I think both are valid.

I have gigged with my mustang, my Ibanez Talman 35 which are both 30" and my 27" JR. I seriously doubt that anyone noticed any difference. I wouldn't normally do a full gig with the first and last as they are 4 strings, but I would have no hesitation doing the whole gig with the TM35.

I use a 12 step and an iPad to run synths for my setup, but ironically also use a Jam Man to trigger individual sounds. Every so often I look for a decent one shot looper on the iPad, but the only ones I can ever find are fantastically clever complicated things, rather than just the one shot samples I want.

And I guess this is android, there isn't anything on the iPad list, other than the old Mixing Station Pro. I find it handy in emergency but not a fan of things moving round, so I just stick to the normal channels.

Ah, can't help with that, i didn't know there was a new app. I used the old app a few times but never really bothered to set it up, so just use the default X-Air application.

So what is it specifically that you don't like or can't do easily? I did a gig for a friend the other day, doing the sound. They had an old mixer with knobs, really not much fun to go back that way!

If you don't mind the word 'super', the behringer video is pretty good:
