  1. I asked my good friend Phil about this as I remembered he had one.
    Here is his reply:

    I only ever used the SR16 as a midi sound module, not as a sequencer. However, against my better judgement I dug out my sr16 and investigated this…



    In Song Compose mode, if you press play, it keeps duplicating the current pattern, so starting with an empty song, you can:

    select pattern 1a,

    play,

    stop in step 4,

    move to step 5

    select pattern 1b

    play

    stop in step 14



    There you have the desired 14 bar song.



    I suspect Geek99 is probably correct about the other limitations.



    - Phil.

    It's all greek (99!) to me, but I hope it helps.

  2. Passive: refinished in Tru-Oil, still has a few knocks and stains that just would not sand out. It it was in a terrible state
    when I got it as a doer-upper but has come up quite nice, it is not immaculate, but plays just fine. Has a 3way switch added
    and the socket relocated to the front from the side.

    Collection Oxfordshire area or meet up nearby.
    Anyone interested?
    As it says above, the Custom one has gone, defretted passive still for sale £140 Collected

    Cheers

  3. If all the speakers are individually 8ohms, wire 2 in parallel to each socket giving 4 ohms available at each socket. Make sure the sockets are not connected to each other at all, and make sure the + on each speaker is connected to + from the amp (make sure all the speakers operate in phase)
    Simples!

  4. [quote name='Metalmoore' post='571278' date='Aug 17 2009, 01:22 AM']Sorry but that is genius. great idea and well made. Hows it perform?[/quote]
    err, it isn't that well made, the photo's must be flattering.
    It sounds ok at low volumes, but sounds like it will burst apart when it is cranked.
    There is some bottom end, but not really deep at all, kind of as you'd expect.
    I'm sure, even with the guesswork design it will sound a ton better in stiffer material, but will no longer weigh 5lbs :)

    Thanks for the kind comments though.
    Cheers

  5. [quote name='Deep Thought' post='571392' date='Aug 17 2009, 10:05 AM']Looks good-is it necessary for the top to be angled? If not the Shuttle would be a lot safer on the top if it was flat-or alternatively rig some sort of platform to keep it level. I have two Ashdown Mini cabs with Celestions in them-if I'm doing a low-key practice I just use one of them with my Shuttle-it's made my practice amp redundant![/quote]
    the idea was to make the controls slightly easier to see and get at.
    The deluxe (MDF!) version will have little rebates for the Shuttle's feet to sit in.
    I was also thinking of using an adjustable nylon carrying strap that would double as a Shuttle "safety belt"

  6. [quote name='Metalmoore' post='571168' date='Aug 16 2009, 10:52 PM']As they say...

    No Pics no ultra light 10" speaker cab prototype :)[/quote]

    Ok then.
    Sorry to be a tease!

    I mocked up an idea in cardboard and parcel tape just to get a feel of it. One criterion is that the Shuttle perches on the top of it.
    It's purpose is for practice and acoustic gigs where the Compact would be unnecessary.
    It has a shelf port of arbitrary size (looked about right!) and has a horizontal cardboard brace inside. It really needs a vertical one too.
    The driver is the Celestion BN-10 200X.
    It is so light it scuttles about the floor when you play it!
    I'm thinking of doing it in MDF with internal bracing and a bit of routing to lose some weight but hopefully keep rigidity.
    I probably should check the volume and tuning with WinISD. How easy is it to use? Any help appreciated.
    Cheers

    Don't laugh too hard, you might have an accident!

  7. Old Laney Supergroup series. 4x EL34s.
    It's basically a 70s Marshall knock-off but without the ridiculous prices. Equall nice for guitar or bass.
    They come up occasionally. I sold mine to King Tut on here before I had a decent cab, and when I heard it through the cab he bought to test it with, I almost wished I hadn't agreed to sell it!
    I believe he is using it as his main gigging amp now.

  8. I played an acoustic night at the Labour club in Northampton (the Barcelona of the North, the locals call it...)
    It was a strictly no amplification night, but I was promised an acoustic bass guitar would be there.
    The girl bringing it never turned up, so I ended up using my fretless Jack bass that I'd chucked in the car on the offchance, through.......
    .....
    wait for it......

    A "Smokey" fag packet guitar amp, that I had in the gig bag. The battery was on the way out.
    It just sounded like an angry wasp.
    There were about 8 people in the audience and it was a 100 mile round trip. Unpaid too.
    Not my fave ever gig. By a long way. In fact, about 100 miles.
