    Sounds like a ground loop. Was the behringer di the one that is a cheap copy of the bss ar133? (Di100 I think) That is the only one with a proper ground lift and an audio isolating transformer. I’d suspect their DI if a ground lift didn’t fix it.
  3. nilebodgers
    Never looked at that - yes you can limit the scope. I’d want to do a lot of careful experimenting before using that feature though!
  4. nilebodgers
    Yes, that is the big problem with using scenes that way. Higher end desks often allow what is being saved as part of a scene to be customised so recalls don’t overwrite certain control changes, but it is still possible to accidentally land in a mess unless you are very careful. When I was doing corporate sound gigs that had an entertainment element we’d usually have separate desks for the band and conference. That meant the band desk was under full control of the band engineer and saves/recalls there wouldn’t affect the rest of the event or the system config. (E.g. zones off a matrix etc.)

    … just assign all band channels to a DCA and mute the DCA instead.

    I’m only looking in the xair simulator, but that is the standard way mute groups function so I’d be surprised if it doesn’t work. Are the little red squares corresponding to mute group 1 showing on each channel and do they change when the mute group 1 button is selected? *** correction, the xr18 doesn’t have the flexibility to set where the mute is applied. The DCA method is the way to go.
  7. nilebodgers
    Set up mute group 1 to be everything but the break music channels. Assuming the iems are all pre-fade then they will remain live when mute group 1 is selected, but will not be in the main LR. *** correction - use a DCA group and mute that instead.

    Everything I see is piano scores where the written bass part doesn’t sound good on bass guitar. I pretty much always play the chord changes with my own ideas for rhythms and inversions added in. I usually get away with busking it 😉 I don’t think I’ve ever heard a worship song that has a “signature” bass line that would be needed for the song to sound “right”. Not for congregational singing anyway.

    If you mean this one: I played this a while back and I don’t remember any trouble with time sigs. (I always have the music though, never just chord charts)

    We had donkey disappointment today. There was supposed to be one, but it was a no-show. Humph!

    Talking about P-basses, I took mine (with rounds) last time I played and it totally didn’t work compared to my usual Jazz with flats. The extra midrange punch just wouldn’t sit properly even after I’d eq’d the top end zing out of the rounds. I was quite surprised how much better the scooped Jazz sound works for me with our simple instrumentation.

    In my little church band (2 x Acc, piano and bass) we do mostly hymns and songs from the 80s and 90s. I have found that it sounds best if I stick to mostly roots and chord tones with the occasional fill. Busy lines are just too distracting for the material we play.

    Fender American Series Tele from 2004. (the American Standard was called American Series from 2000-2007) - Candy Apple Red with white (original) scratchplate. - Alder body. - Maple neck with Rosewood fretboard. - Very little fret wear (had a fret polish and not played since). - No-load tone control. - Original pickups and hardware. - (Tone control pot was faulty when I got it so was replaced with a new Fender part.) - Original Fender hard case. - Very good condition overall apart from 2 small dings on upper rear body edge (shown in pics). Price: £750.00 I don't want to post so probably Norwich/Norfolk collect given I am up in North Norfolk. No trades thanks, I have way more gear than I need already!

    What did you get? It’s a problem I need to solve too.

    I can’t believe how many vendors there are. It’s like a hydra of scammers with randomly generated names.

    The bss Di is active, but it has a transformer so it can provide true galvanic isolation. (As does the KT DN active Di) Active DIs without a transformer cannot provide real isolation or break some ground loops so they can’t be relied on in all situations.
