  1. I wouldn't expect output from a power stage that's had a capacitor go MIA. Maybe have another look through the preamp schematic?
  2. High pass his monitor send and it will be all good. The loop is guitar monitor guitar, doesn't matter where it starts from only that it is cut off.
  3. My eyesight improved and I can make out VAC so it's definitely something electronic...
  4. Hopefully it's random junk but it is kinda looking like an electronic part with code so worth another go. The camera is picking up and focusing on texture and writing on your background rather than the item itself. Can you trick it into the right plane of focus?
  5. Even when ratings are comparable you can blow up a cab. You would have less loud knob rotation left over than you would with a 200w amp but that's what your ears are there for, not your eyes.
  6. 99/100 that's the acoustic guitar or something ringing at an octave up from you. It might be set off by you, but it's not you.
  7. If you are happy going to IEM the only reason for you to need an amp is for the few who are not. That's a bit strange. I wouldn't mind betting there's at least one turkey playing way too loud in the lacking in-ears group. I don't believe in half measures for bass amplification. Neither do I believe in catering to idiots, especially when there is PA. The bass that you make on stage messes with the front of house sound. Plug your Helix into a clean power amp like a Quilter and a full range cab like a Barefaced. What comes out will be very close to a FOH sound. For the love of bass, EQ the PA to the room before trying to EQ anything else. Edit, I should have read the remainder of posts. Since your PA is without bass bins aka subwoofers I can't imagine it is all that beefy in the kick or bass when it gets cranked up. You might be better playing to the room along with the drummer and leaving PA to vocals and all the other squawky parts.
  8. I just noticed the date on this exchange. Seriously?!? What is up with everyone ignoring the rattle of presumably conductive parts inside this amp? Or am I the April Fool?
  9. Yep, an awful lot of resources went into chroming it, and an awful lot more would be required to strip it. Very wasteful.
  10. The rosewood fingerboard is something I haven't seen either. NS do have a thing for white though. I reckon it's a special order.
  11. As in you don't approve, or you think it was another colour originally?
  12. Yeah, I gathered that from up the thread. Still, pretty trivial to hook up a series connection for them to run at 8 ohms if he wanted to snaffle the blown amp one in the classifieds.
  13. Search your email. Or maybe you're an outlier who deletes it.
  14. You could still play with the Pinnick as distortion and whatever is last can go 1/4 out to desk at rehearsal just fine.
  15. There aren't many ways you could do it with the 1 in one out system you have going, so my vote is have at it. If you get more adventurous remember there is a well held maxim that time based fx go after distortions to avoid mush.
  16. Any detail about how it left your possession may jog someone else's memory of a mate getting it. Cast a bigger net!
  17. The inner detective in me needs to know where it was headed last, and what's special about it. Most sales have a phone or email attached.
  18. I suppose some clown could have got some negative relief, stripped the truss nut and given up?
  19. Considering to increase action after lowering bridge one would generally add relief not straighten, one really does wonder what's going on here.
  20. Don't forget the boffin to drive it.
  21. I was taught to apply end to end as opposed to scrubbing it at the heel and then distributing along the length. This to avoid destroying the hair at the heel way faster than the rest. The heel is where you really want good hair. Not really open to other ideas but have at it anyway.
  22. The TL606 isn't very big but built like the proverbial brick outbuilding. Ideally you would be looking at a cab with some size to it to get the low bass loud.
  23. Probably not going to excite much past the first outing. Even if you tweak the port to optimise extra lows all you can hope for is a heavier not as loud notsowundercab.
  24. I seem to recall something about blocking out half the shelf port at the same time.
