The 10CR speakers are fine for slap

A little tongue in cheek, but we are pretty much talking about the same thing. Compression we can all agree is not for masking mastery of an instrument or mastery of playing with others, but even masters can have a helping hand. Recorded orchestral music will have an element of compression applied to the sound as well as levels before it is released. If we are talking orchestral music live, yes of course every instrument is not Mic’d up and compressed, but what you have is a piece of musical art where the parts are written for a number of instruments - if you want a heavy string section be it viola, violin, cello etc you have relatively more parts of the instrument you want to bring higher, same across percussion, woodwind, brass. There are of course acoustics of the room and how you play them alongside your music, having performed in the free trade hall in Manchester and then compare it to the new concert hall, with its specialised foundations to allow gentle dampening as teams go back to not affect the sound, all these play a part. The list is endless, and at its best compression is not noticeable, it’s just done enough to balance the force. Am I qualified? Nah, peeps like Si your person, am I an interested audiophile who wants the best balanced sound possible either playing or listening, damn straight

Compression is an absolute necessity - search all of @51m0n posts on it - you will get all you need and more. Simply put its used in spades on records to produce a balanced sound for a band/artist across all genres, instruments and voices why would you not want to own your own sound and produce a balanced sound?

Good man Good company Good result

@dave_bass5 if you do make it to bristol I’ll let you borrow our Sonic Spark which is what you may be missing......

Hello mate! Good to have you on here as well That bass is banging

Well it’s xmas should have said pendant, solitaire is fine

Thanks for that - really good Without wishing to be a pedant.... Same string types and ages? Same body and neck and fingerboard material? Output and type of windings/magnets/pole pieces on the pick ups? Cap values on the time pot and vintage/modern/linear etc. Thanks

That’s not too bad actually - it’s only if you want a masterpiece as well then you are really splashing - but it could be a lifetime bass.... Hopefully all configurations available soon

For you lefties who like a shorter scale

For you lefty shorty lovers out there

Get the jazz Bit by bit (as money allows) build a parts P bass that will satisfy your need, be cheaper and sound better if you get the correct second hand parts

She has a great voice - nice work

They tend to use Glockenlang pre amps so if you see one on their site, then you can ask for it, and they have also used Noll Electronics - both German companies. They also use the Darkglass tone capsule which is 3 band You May get the whole lot into existing holes, although it’s probably an upcharge

It’s an easy fix if that’s what you want by adding a stacked knob from someone like Noll electronics the 3 band are normally custom so they may be scarce.....

Damning verdict or just not for you
