Get an old 300w 1x15 Trace Elliot. Plenty loud. Plus, if you have space to store it, you could pick up an extension cab for peanuts that would result in you having a rig that would pretty much do any gig.

Don't know 100% but I dont think it can! I done a bit of youtube investigation into the HXFX years ago and can't remember ever watching a video that someone ran it like that! Stereo FX of course though. Saying that though, Line 6 are constantly updating things so it might have changed even if it never used to be an option!

Any thoughts one my other points?

Nope. Even if he was, he wasnt the only one and he certainly wasnt the one who would have kept it going. I'm no tdefending him. I'm just saying things were invetible. And what we have now is a slight negotiable.

I've got a few thoughts on this, I haven't looked into it properly so I might be wrong, but here they are: I'm not saying the deal for the artists is particularly favourable to the artist, but i think folk forget the illegal download scene a few decades ago; there was already a push against buying music. Who knows how big that would've been without streaming services. a small bit of the pie is better than none of it! a very high percentage of people using streaming wouldn't have purchased the music. They're getting a small amount of money, but from a different and wider audience than they'd ever have had If I buy a cd from an artist, only a small amount goes to the artist. That is a one hit for them. If I like an artist and over the next 10+ years, I might listen to thousands of their songs which overall might result in not alot of a difference to the artist. If artists are more accessible, they're morelikely to pick up fans, and then the whole snowball thing happens. Excellent points I'd say!

Id go the opposite. I'd really really think about what I'm adding to any gig with having the specific pedal board, remove everything I could get away without, and then just get a minimal board for all gigs. I'd use my zoom ms60b as a cheap swiss army knife pedal for any effect I might want as a wee extra- replace your tuner with it if you have a dedicated tuner. In fact, if I were you, I'd sell everything apart from the c4 and get an hx stomp and a footswitch. Will cover 99% of everything you'd ever need probably, and in a tiny package.

Absolutely. The piano was essentiallly a midi controller anyway and the piano within the free sample tank is good enough for me.

An old classic korg triton le. I'm replacing a digital piano with this. As a piano it's clearly a downgrade but to be honest, being limited to piano has meant I've slowly lost interest and so I thought a wee keyboard with various sounds might get me playing a bit more! First impressions.. nicely built. Sounds great although the pianos are a bit naff. Lots of assignable knobs. Hopefully midi works fine so I can use it as a controller.

dep gig. without looking it up, i have no idea where it is. its a good band though.

This is an excellent feature. My ms60b probably suits my needs more than my stomp set up does, but having to use the same amp sim signal to foh and to a backline was a limitation. This fixes that! I have a feeling this will be one of those "Friday night after half a bottle of red wine" online purchases over the next few weeks!

I own this very bass and in this exact finish and I've never once noticed that straight cut. Il never unsee that!

If you are planning on using the ms60b for this specific purpose, then i'd recommend downloading the zoom effects manager. It basically allows you to upload any of the zoom effects to the unit, not just the bass effects. you can load it up with all the EQs and pre's that zoom offer and see what ones work best. Just remove the flanges and delays etc that you wont use. Some of the non-bass EQ's might work better for you. Although could an 8th turn of the tone knob on the bass tame the harsh end? I'm guilty of thinking a pedal is needed when actually a tweak on the bass can make a change!

Incredibly tight and a superb sound but extremely repetitive.

I've got a broken 10" combo with a good cover which I'm hoping to convert into a passive cab. That should be easy enough so to accompany it I fancy a wee micro head. Maybe npt even a bass head and purely for home volumes.

I've played 4s probably 80% of the time, 10% 6s and 10% 5s. There's a time and a place for all but in all honesty I think 4s are just more fun to play! And I rarely if ever feel I'm missing out on not having the extra strings.

I've tried alot of synth pedals over the years and the best is the source audio c4, in my opinion. Can't say it will do that particular sound but I'm sure it will. To be honest though, in my experiemce most pedals are a glitchy mess unless you're being very particular with what notes you play and how you play them. I'm a reasonably clean player and I've never really been comfortable with any of the pedals ive had in a live setting for this very reason!

I agree. I'd just get a footswitch. No power required and would do everything your tuner would do. this is mine. It's a footswitch built by a mate, but any old footswitch would do the job. Not sure if what you want to do is possible but the stomp has quite a specific connector which might make it more complicated/expensive if it is possible.

Can't say I've ever seen a pub band with a drum screen. It might do the job but in all honesty, I'd be loathed to carry about an extra bit if kit purely because the drummer chooses to play loud. The easy answer is he needs to stop hitting hard. Hitting hard diesnt make him "rock" harder. If he's as good as you say then he needs to moderate his sound as its clearly having a direct negative impact on the overall sound. It boggles my brain how certain musicians have this opinion. If you ever have punters point this out, make sure he's in ear range.

Alexis Sklarevski the slap bass program vhs. Showed me how to slap when I was 14. Still probably at the same level 28 years later!

Dirt before, chorus delays reverb after. Generally speaking. Live use would be different as most pre amp pedals double up as your DI so it will sit at the end of the chain. When I've only got one comp I'd stick it first in the chain. Just enough to even out the output from the bass. As others have said.. there's no right or wrong. If it sounds good it's good. If it sounds bad it's bad.

I'm sure it has its uses, but yikes, that is incredibly glitchy. Too glitchy to be used as a bass octaver IMO! Looks cool though!

Not seen this live but Jon bon Jovi's recent attempts at singing is quite depressing!

Decent wee cover! 👌

external is roughly 30cmx20cmx9cm. Its not for the same printer therefore not exactly ther same, but this is something very similiar: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Carrying-Storage-Portable-Printer-co2CREA/dp/B07FPB1X1W/ref=asc_df_B07FPB1X1W/?tag=googshopuk-21&linkCode=df0&hvadid=696285193871&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=17738099809167818398&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9046913&hvtargid=pla-2281435178578&mcid=18bc5fea04ac3bf4a0937c878f9bdebe&hvocijid=17738099809167818398-B07FPB1X1W-&hvexpln=74&gad_source=1&th=1

The board is a bit of wooden flooring cut down to size, with some anti slip feet stuck to the bottom and the velcro used to attach the pedals! The case is a portable printer case found in amazon after days of searching! There's so many cases out there for other things than can be repurposed! This one's discontinued it seams. I waa very specific on the dimensions as this fits perfectly into the pouch of my Protection Racket bass case.
