Defo higher output bridge P

Good work fella, it’s nice to see someone interested in their own personal instrument craft as well as the craft of others, their instruments and what they do for the betterment of a band they are playing in and how they all fit together. Its the little things even before we get to EQ etc like what pick ups/guitar does the guitarist use, how are the drummers snare/toms etc tuned and how do they play - then you can look at P vs J bass etc. To fit. Its all about musical sensitivity, intelligence and feel

And sirens

Thanks for that Great vid

Would sound even better with

Maybe compression is like a mullet - business like at the front end to provide a party at the back - and it looks and sounds good, but not everyone can carry it off

It’ll probably be the same weight as their first cabs they brought out so you can hold off till the second release

Ha - I would take their prime minister over ours! I was pretty sure actual construction was on these shores though?!

Either that or it’s in one location and they all move to it as it’s cheaper and more transportable to move people and a camera crew

I think it’s the same couple of cabs in all videos shipped around and rented out

Or the volume knob on your bass

So that’s why I didn’t get one, that or it sunk the titanic on its way to me

Or they are all in hospital post spinal surgery

@krispn well the first 2 points you quoted in your reply are related completely to compression, point 5 is about target market- you wouldn’t play verbatim pop versions Atomic Kitten in a Punk or Cannibal Corpse type gig venue. 3 is a given, or should be for any self respecting group. Lighting? Can’t see how that comes above - 3 recent gigs I have been to, 1 an intimate coffee shop one - normal lights, engaging and brilliant. Mark Lonergan in a big venue it was mainly just dark - lights never changed - great sound and engaging. Another band - all the flashing lights in the world, good musicians, tight, engaging - sound was absolutely awful - everyone was put off and left early. Groove, tightness, feel musically and soundwise are defo hand in hand together.

Nice What are the necks like on the Tribby’s

https://orangeamps.com/little-bass-thing/ looks nice this, few vids as well to have a listen to.

I love a driftwood shipwreck!

I like it! I may be in for that

Will The IK multimedia blue turn work? I use it for scrolling up and down through pages/lyrics/songs on a list Easy to use with feet on the fly

Not sure that is what @51m0n is saying at all. My take on what he is saying is, if you want to understand compression and get better at using it, get involved in mixing, and that can be at the dog and duck with your own mixer and not a pro-touring rig. Most modern mixers have an ability to record the channels going into them, USB stick or otherwise, this recording can easily be taken and the levels etc of instruments be played around with to see what compression does on a free DAW resource etc. If you play the same venue often you can check your mix at the desk vs the ambient sound in the room with a recorder placed out in the audience and judge how things are balanced, number of people in the room affecting it, how this should be tweaked etc. Then knowledge gleaned can be used to help on bass specifically. I think that is the essence of what he is saying, and all ‘pro’ engineers started somewhere.

Yep it was all about the ceramic driver tone....... Are they still being made in the U.K.?

Wholeheartedly agree Very very nice basses

I’m still at work now...... Say no more!
