      Thanks Sivia.

      After I tagged you I remembered where the Report function is 🤦‍♂️

  2. What would be a good preamp/modeller/driver/DI to go straight into a PA?  Before everyone starts naming bespoke, top of the range items, please bear in mind that the budget is low.  When I say low, I mean that I was looking at a Behringer BDI21, low.

      We have a BD121 as the default amp modeller and active DI at church. We had a particular issue  in that our amp with a DI output had become microphonic so that had to go, and putting a passive bass into our on state passive DI boxes was very feeble. The Berry fits the bill, is sturdy (and cheap) enough to live on stage and be used by anyone who rocks up, and the tone variations are genuinely good and sit in a live mix. It sometimes has a slight hiss, so the input on the mixing desk is gated to ignore this, but other than that it just works.

      The only person who doesn't use it, ironically, is the sound engineer who purchased it - me! I have an active bass with a high output, and after some experimentation the sound guys said they preferred the sound of mine without any amp modelling, so I just DI through the EMO passive boxes and trust they aren't simply hitting the mute button.

      Look after yourself. Hope to hear from you again in the not too distant future, and maybe see you at the Midlands Bash.

  4. Taking a break from LCDs. See you all later, or when the BassChat omnibus print edition comes out.

      Yeah, the problem is that BassChat is the home page on my phone!
