Stacking two BF 210's the traditional 410 way turns them into a BF410. Stacking them in the tall tower per Bill with the two full range drivers in the middle also valid.

You probably had the ''loudness'' button toggled on. I was playing violin at the time so the twiddly keyboard part caught my ear. Listening to it again, for the first time in I don't know how many years, the other day I was struck by the classical harmony nature of the whole. To me a driving bassline is one where the bass asserts the 1 dead on and doesn't often stray far from the other beats while whatever goes, goes for the rest of the band. None of that going on with that tune.

I keep my ear plugs with me on my key ring. Never again! Flare Audio do a gnatty SS tube fob for theirs.

If you have a slot ported cab and a spare heavy cardboard box....Bob's your hairy assed Auntie.

If you put them side by side you undo a lot of the good work.

One more thing, ''let the audience see the cab''. One time I am rocking out and all of a sudden my sound goes to total hell. I turn around expecting to see someone effing with my EQ but it's the sax player getting a back massage.

I never said Cure doesn't have driving basslines. I said that other tune was not one.

We disagree. To me the 'driving' is coming from the ebb and flow of the thematic keyboard part. Everything else is along for the ride.

I really dislike that expression, ''serving the song''. It should always be the bloody bass that works. If it's too flashy and distracting fire the showoff prick and get someone else. In this case all the simple parts are most of 'the song' and the bass is but one of them. The singer sings his little ditty over it. Magic. Bass driven it ain't.

Nearly anything in the old 410 610 810 style beams horribly. Barefaced are a notable exception as they low pass one side of their cabs so directional frequencies only come from the other side in a vertical column. That gets you away from the comb filtering. There are 3 way cabs that split the frequencies and much improve dispersion over full range drivers. The distance to each 'side' of a driver varies with the angle it presents to us enough to get a cancellation. The larger the diameter the lower the frequency / less angle required for the effect to occur. A 215 stack isn't too flash for dispersion. The old aluminum dust caps help to even the score zinging away independently so everyone gets the zing. Upper mids not so much.

Cough.

Cough.

There's a non posting bug going around.

Some things to consider. To go zero you need a very well supervised border. The UK and Ireland could yet go that way. If the UK petrie dish experiment goes pear shaped you could get a new even gnarlier variant than Delta with a sufficiently modded spike that evades all the vaccines. That would effectively be a groundhog day for Covid but on a different continent. New South Wales is in the kaka no doubt. They won't be out of some kind of lockdown any time soon for sure. Too much non compliance, and leaving it all very late at each stage of concern. The rest of Aus stands a chance of getting back to zero and only gets one chance to try. I'll take prospect of lockdowns now over the misery the rest of the world has already suffered! Here has been pretty much all go since July last year. NZ only has to keep it out for a few more months to get everyone vaccinated.

I see. Scratch that then. The output of the pedals doesn't upset the input of the bass amp so it's not going to upset the mixer either. Except the mixer is getting upset! Something has gone awry in the levels somewhere in the shift from rig to PA.

Only because he's a master of looping his own beats and 'bass'.

Without looking up that particular Eurodesk... Whatever pad is on the input, engage it. Lower the input gain to 9 o'clock. If that doesn't work you are sending too much out of your pedal chain somewhere. Easiest way to find a culprit is take away stuff from the chain. That's not really the proper way to do it but a quick and dirty one. It may be that unit A is overdriving unit B or could be C is spazzing even before your signal hits the desk. It would be helpful if you could find a bass rig. Plug into the fx return and see what that sounds like. If it's a mess you know it's nothing to do with the desk. I fully expect that's the case. Another possibility is a flattening battery in an active bass.

I'd say find a drum tutor who is versed in Alexander Technique. Or an Alexander teacher who is experienced with musicians. Alexander was a struggling opera singer back in the day when they sang over orchestras with no amplification. He developed an acute awareness of 'use' and 'the means whereby' of the body to accomplish tasks without extraneous effort making it harder than it has to be. His cure was so popular he had to train 'teachers' of his methods.

Another option is the NXT omni which can be had in 5 strings and is cello scale length having originally been conceived as an electric cello. Slap some skinny strings on and crank them up.

Ed Sheeran only turned 30 this year.

Memo missed.

Yeah, something's not right, you shouldn't need any more gear.

I thought it was already determined the heist was on the US end?

You either need a backpack for the amp or a gig bag for the bass and you're the next one trip wonder.
