Dood

I've never heard of Krampera but took a quick look at the marketing spiel on their website. So I thought I'd post it here for a discussion and views - You guys heard of this company?? *shrugs* Original website post here: [url="http://www.londonbassguitarshow.com/latest-news/59-krampera--the-kvb-bass-guitar-system.html?utm_source=london+bass+show&utm_medium=facebook"]http://www.londonbassguitarshow.com/latest...medium=facebook[/url] Website here: [url="http://www.krampera.co.uk/"]http://www.krampera.co.uk/[/url]

I've subscribed too - and if any of you use the Facebook/Spotify connector - you can add me on FB via facebook.com/DoodOnBass or my muso page in my sig.

Hey Stuee! Welcome aboard - I just spotted your post about the Patrick Eggle Bass - sorry to hear of your 'loss' - That's a tastey looking instrument! I also spotted that you are from Wilts, I was born there and - well I guess in comparison to where I am now - it was pretty near to Stone Henge too! heh!

[quote name='callingltu' post='1098696' date='Jan 22 2011, 02:55 PM']Duuuude... Thats a collection of the ugliest basses i've ever seen[/quote] You're most certainly welcome to your own opinion - It'd be a boring world if we all liked the same thing! Your post did make me chuckle though.

[quote name='Krohurte' post='1098507' date='Jan 22 2011, 11:40 AM']No it wasn't the the valves. Fresh ones in, same problem.[/quote] Ahh poop! - Yeah, sorry about the geekiness of my last post. The FETs are basically like 'electronic switches' in the V-t. The foot switches only control those electronic switches, as opposed to a lot of pedals where the audio signal travels through the foot switch itself. I wondered if there was a problem somewhere with them not conducting properly. Only one would need to be at fault. Agreed about the PSU - are you using an official one with the pedal? It's worth just checking that the one you have is the correct voltage AND is capable of supplying enough current to drive the pedal.

At the minute I'm using peavey eurosys something or other pa cabs and they are dandy![/quote] Yep, I guess it was more just pondering the question as I have seen threads asking about using PA cabs for bass - so I thought I'd throw i out there for discussion. There's much talk about 'super cabs' these days with 'flatter frequency response' being a big selling point. I find that being able to have tools (in this case cabinets) that can 'multi-task' in my current line of work could prove beneficial.

Here's some pictures of a few 'rigs' that I've had in the past! and some bits I still use. Maaaaan do I like flashing lights ha hah a! Disgusting Dood, just ... deary me! EDIT: I'd just like to add that this 'stuff' is over many years of playing. I'm not loaded or anything *embarrassed a bit*

29!! Woh! That's like.. an army of kitteh! Good luck with rehoming - that's quite a task you have there!

[quote name='51m0n' post='1095078' date='Jan 19 2011, 01:03 PM']I thought everyone knew that Bergantino cabs make THE best PA cabs in the world (probably)[/quote] Woh! Impressive

[quote name='stef030' post='1098151' date='Jan 21 2011, 09:59 PM']the one and only FRANCIS DUNNERY [/quote] Actually, yeah I like IT Bites! [quote name='funkypenguin' post='1098249' date='Jan 21 2011, 11:58 PM']Guthrie Govan. most complete guitar player ive ever heard, would love to back him [/quote] Also a good call, he'd be great too. I always like playin' & shreddin' with my mate Andy James too - but I guess that wouldn't be imaginary cos I can do that whenever!

Great thread, but actually tough to answer! I'd love to play with Paul Gilbert, Brian May or mebbe John Petrucci. Lovin' Paul 'Chimp Spanner' Ortiz and Misha of Bulb/Periphery fame too! The list could go on and on, - I guess Mr May would be first on the list being a childhood hero/idol.

If this were my Facebook, I would be clicking the 'Like' button right now!

Also, just to add to the mix - a string with a round core, verses a hex core will have a more flexible feel. Quite a few manufacturers will state what type core their strings have.

Just had a go at the rhythm index with a cup of tea in one hand! Quite proud of my result for a first go! [quote]Rhythmicity Index (RI) = 91 < < < < Tested at 60 beats/min [1000 ms/beat] Actual Avg Period = 1000 ms Beats Missed = 0 Highest Variation = 51 ms[/quote] I actually felt which couple of beat I was a little early for too.

Yeah, listened by ear without a guitar nearby and I can't hear an Ab either - Seems to be the same turnaround each time for the verses and same turnaround for the choruses.

[quote name='silddx' post='1095242' date='Jan 19 2011, 03:01 PM']Sorry Dan, I absolutely meant what you say in your second sentence [i]We DO however care about how that opinion is put across on the forum.[/i] Maybe I wasn't clear enough.[/quote] Tha's alreet! Just wanted to clarify that and added a smillie on the end for good measure.

Maybe it's all an elaborate joke, rather like this one: heh heh

[quote name='silddx' post='1094879' date='Jan 19 2011, 10:27 AM'].... they are members of this community and the moderators will take it ill if you write any negatives.[/quote] Can I just correct that? The moderators don't care what opinion a person has about a particular musician. We DO however care about how that opinion is put across on the forum. You're kinda suggesting otherwise.

[quote name='PaulSoundscape' post='1094615' date='Jan 18 2011, 11:03 PM']I think myspaces' bitrate is/was 96kbps which sounds bad, PLUS they use very poor conversion processes, so experimenting i uploaded really high quality MP3s 320 kbps and 96 kbps and 96kbps sounded better once up on myspace than the 320kbps tracks.[/quote] Yeah, Myspace compress the uploaded file to a lower bitrate, because it makes the file size smaller and thus uses less disc space on their servers. Given the millions of tracks up on myspace, even halving the file size is a massive saving in running costs. With Myspace losing a lot of business these days, I can imagine that cost saving exercises such as these will become more common place for them as they try to up the profit margins!
