It was indeed 'Bass Day' held at the RNCM. I used to go and have been an artist on stands in the past too. I think The London Bass Show is the only option for something of that ilk (but obviously better) but BassChat's own 'bashes' are superb - highly recommended. I've always gone home a much better person than when I arrived. Always a great vibe. sadly these days I can't get out to see my bass brethren (and sisterthren.. sisteristhen.. sis.. umm everyone..) I miss you lot. I do. really.

Should I get a P2 I will happily compare! I think one of the big problems is that Fischer I think isn't a particularly large company and thus cost of production is that much higher than that of Music Group who probably churn these things out for a couple of quid each. Even if they were exactly the same, Fischer probably couldn't compete. Much like the big supermarkets eating up local shops...

Likewise! I've had two of them and haven't been able to replicate. (I sold the first one, kicked myself for doing so and bought another!!)

It's really lazy and demonstrates to me that the owner doesn't really care about the instrument. unless of course they can give a decent reason as to why it doesn't have strings on. (A broken truss rod for example might be a good enough reason.) I would expect to receive a serious discount in lieu of not being able to prove that the instrument is fit for purpose.. not that I'd touch it with a bargepole anyway!

Here's the Nova Dynamics: Two pedals in one box. These are discontinued now, which is a shame as they are really rather good!

Oh wait! I've had another idea! See if you can find a TC Electronic Nova Dynamics! - it's one physical pedal but there are two separate compressors in the box. (actually each half can be one of two different types of compressor or noise gate if you wish.. or boost pedal.. or.. lol ) - it'd be so simple to set up Comp 1 for guitar and Comp 2 for bass then switch between them! I can't think of it being too much easier than that. Dooooood

I think I would suggest either the TC Electronic Hypergravity or Spectracomp. There are plenty of amazing compressors out there and you will get loads of suggestions, but what I love about these is that if you are unsure where to start you can choose from a library of programs that are really simple to load on each device. You could then audition as many as you wanted to see which suits your two instruments the best. Later, when you have found a program you like, there is also an editor to iron out those 'if only it did this' issues. I use mine (I actually have both as I am greedy) for all sorts of instruments and the option of 'changing out their guts' as it were at the flick of a switch makes them really flexible.

What a star! BassChat is awesome!

Yes sorry that is of course correct. My head is a bit all over the place. Ignore me! lol

But of course if you have a digital desk then the chances are you can set up EQ and limiting on each channel anyway.

The EQ definitely is a bonus. My P16m feed (16 channels) allows EQ on every channel, which is a nice tweak for my IEMs. But that does rely on having a mixer that is compatible of course. The limiter is also handy too and I have it on all the time. I think the Shure has that facility too.

Indeed Indeed he did! he he he! Yes, the Fischer Stick has been in long term service. I have two IEM set ups. One where I hard wire directly in to a Behringer P16m that is connected via 'digital network' to our digital mixer, or for gigs when I don't have that luxury, such as deps, the Fischer Stick is so easy, light and out of the way. I leant it to a dep drummer recently and he loved it. I may even buy a P2 as a spare, not that I will ever need it mind!

I went somewhere in the middle and I love this thing. Built like a tank with a decent metal casing . The batteries seem to last forever and I love that you can run it in stereo or mono across a standard Mic XLR cable which locks in to place. (Or standard TRS if that takes your fancy)

I feel inspired! Hopefully I will find time to give my 76er a good scrub up too!

Joking aside, it is an incredibly simple amplifier to use. You’ll just have to trust me on that one. Easier to use than a microwave oven

It certainly does look fantastic!

Absolutely and utterly the @Bergantino Audio B|Amp. If we could get together you can try mine. It has an adjustable HPF and a feedback filter you can enable. A parametric EQ, compressor and a beautifully clean preamp that I’ve been really pleased with whatever I’ve plugged in to it. There’s the option to save three presets on it too, ideal if you switch from bass to bass. (Accessible from a wireless pedal no less!) For electric bass there are drive settings on board and both the compressor and drives can have a clean blend for those who like a bit of parallel processing to heat the signal up a bit. What I do love personally, given the interest in FRFR in bassyworld, is the addition of selectable ‘speaker profiles’ that can be enabled to tweak the response curves of connected cabinets from the Berg range. Although I should quickly add that Bergantino have just released a universal tweak that also works well on non-Berg cabinets. Actually, in all honesty you can use any preset on any cabinet. You’ve just got to use your ears

In all honesty I was comparing against my recollection of the KZ ZS10. Maybe I’m wrong, but the AS10 is yet to ‘wow me at this price point’ like the KZ10.

We love @obbm's custom cables - Dave makes great IEM cables too!

I've grabbed one direct from Donner for £35 I think, though I am not sure if I am going to be roasted for customs and excise yet!

I think this thread: is still pretty relevant and well up to date. I'd be careful to answer this one, save to say "the manufacturing figures won't tell you the whole story".

I dont know if I like them. I bought them from AliExpress and got a little discount on my first purchase. Like the previous KZ's I had I found them difficult to get in my ears even with the smallest flangey dudes. Maybe that's the problem but at the moment the sound isn't doing it for me. I'm not sure if I can send them back / sell them on.

I know that you are looking for a pedal tuner, but IO;ve just a bought a couple of these: Permanently fixed there's no chance of losing them and drop tuning would be a breeze as there's no fiddling with a wobbly clamp: http://www.accessories.daddario.com/pwProductDetail.Page?ActiveID=4115&productid=1156&productname=NS_Micro_Clip_Free_Tuner It comes with a screw or two that replaces one on a tuning key. Here's a picture of my Ibanez guitar with one fitted: (it's a reverse headstock so the keys are underneath!)

I even think we've got cocktail sticks!!
