SH73

Is focusrite as good as they say it is. I bought one last week. It's my first device for recording. It comes with ableton live 9 lite and plug ins. The latency is bad, I use Sony Vaio with Windows 7 intel core i3 laptop. Have both realtek and asio4all installed. Most tutorials use mac even the ableton tutorials. Any suggestions on latency?

Thanks for the reply. It`s still a struggle to use focusrite.

Is that a SH bass? lovely.What wattage is the gear?

I just bought Focusrite scarlett 2i2 and cannot rid off the latency with windows 7. any suggestions?

I use focusrite 2i2 and asio4all, still lots of latency.

Hello Can I connect my Fender rumble amp to Focusrite then Pc for a better sound. The focusrite ableton live 9 lite seems to be rubbish. Thanks

Thank you. I now upgraded the bass with spb4 with Fender pots. The volume pot doesn't seem to work in gradual increments. Any ideas?

[quote name='gary mac' timestamp='1443725474' post='2877248'] You won't need to, unless you fancy upgrading the pots. If you do, give Kiogon a shout. He makes up high quality kits, consisting of everything you need. It will drop right in and you won't even need to solder your new pups in, as there is a connector which will allow you to screw the cables in. [/quote] Who is Kiogon.

Thanks for your help

Bump

I am replacing the pups on my Matt Freeman bass with Seymour Duncan SPB-4 pups . I`ve been looking at CTS pots on Thomanm site for better quality pots. There are three different CTS 250 k pots. Confused which one to get. Can anyone please assist?

This bass feels and sounds like a beast. Most people say it's heavy with chunky neck. I went to a music store and tested one today,played IM riffs with ease. My fingers aren't long and had no issues. The only disadvantage is that I was unable to buy it as we are expecting a baby, and already own four guitars and two amps. The bass looks, feels and sounds great. Not a WH fan but the FC crest would not bother me at all.

I am thinking buying SPB-4 pups to replace tge manufacturers pups on my Matt Freeman squier bass. Purely as I want to be able to get closer to Steve Harris sound. I am aware that there are other aspects to sound like him. My question is, would I need to rewire tge electronics ir add anything as SPB-4 are different frequency. Many Thanks

Seymour Duncan SPB-4 pick ups

[quote name='Lord Sausage' timestamp='1440749331' post='2853442'] There are a few isolated bass tracks on YouTube. If you listen, you will here how sloppy he is! Poor. If they are him? Which I think they are! http://youtu.be/23YO8ijT4Ao http://youtu.be/qSYuse9o8KI [/quote] You might think he is sloppy, but neither you or any other bassist out there have as much as passion, drive and determination to achieve what Steve Harris has . I've listened to different bass isolated tracks by other artists but I love Steve's style. He is unique and his isolated tracks, if it's him, sound raw and powerful.

I've had this bass for nearly three months and I am blown away with the sound especially when playing IM songs. It still has the strings it came with,but may change tgem and put Rotos on.

I have a jazz more versatile, but use only my PB. The sound is just what I like.

What's your band called?

At the moment?! The moment has been two year long now. Steve Harris P bass in Royal blue. Unfortunately I bought Squier p bass Matt Freeman two weeks ago so I wouldn't be able to justify buying it if one came up. Or would I?

This bass sounds awesome when playing Iron Maiden songs.The tone button responds well when playing other stuff which I am not good at.

I am thinking Steve Harris sig pick ups!

Finally my new Squier PB arrived. It's the Matt Freeman signature, but who cares. I simply like the lacquered maple neck and vintage white. It sounds awesome with the strings it came. Once i were them out I'll put rotos on.
