Smooth Hound Innovations Digital Wireless Guitar System
Jack replied to Dood's topic in Accessories and Misc
I had to purchase a new component for the power supply last week and I (once again) received superb service from Smoothhound. Please, do not hesitate to put your money and your confidence in a great product made by great people. -
There's the [url="http://www.guitarsoundsystems.com/gss-baby-sumo-ampxlite-bass-guitar-power-amp-c2x21844846"]GSS one[/url] to think about/compete with too.

I used to gig with either a compact or a midget (or both, or two midgets.....) anyway I'm sure that the super compact will be up to the job if your band is sensible pub rock or quieter.

Looks a little like a Modern Player but it's not quite right.

So I am looking to join a band (ideally a function band) what would be the best way if the ads are regarded as useless?
-
I've got a Korg Pitchblack (although that's for sale atm), a Behringer Boss clone, a Korg Handheld one, a clip on ebay special and the one on my Kemper here and they're all pretty much as good as the next when it comes to tuning. If it's going to be in your signal chain then maybe you'd want a nicer one but if it's on a 'tuner out' or similar then just go for the first one you see at a decent price IME.

[quote name='Lexii' timestamp='1496081451' post='3308652'] Local guitar store advised on low end loss with smaller speakers. [/quote] You'd expect a shop to understand this stuff, they should know better. Simple experiment, can you hear low frequencies with headphones? Yes? Then why should a smaller speaker produce less bass in a bass cab?
-
[quote name='Lexii' timestamp='1496078245' post='3308612']I keep getting my self lost with it all, I'm told I need the 1x15 to keep the bottom end strong but don't know which way to match it all up.[/quote] Who by? Decide which of the Markbass cabs you like the best then buy two of those. Are you open to other brands? Barefaced stuff usually gets recommended whenever weight is an option. Or if you like the GK cabs you have now then why not look at something like two GK 1x12s or 2x10s?
-
The GK head is now sold and on its way to the new owner, still got some more for sale though! Go on, make me an offer and save me from ebay!
-
Limiter on, I keep the other two switches off. After that try using a fair amount of gain so it starts to get hairy then set the volume to match the situation. With a very hot output p bass I tended to have it around 12o clock gain.

[quote name='citymariner' timestamp='1495970629' post='3307820'] any ideas what plugging both outputs to one can actually does to the amp? [/quote] In theory, nothing. It's electrically the same as having a thicker cable, so if anything your amp would have a minutely easier time of it.
-
You can see the simulated response of the speaker cabinet. And using that you can fine tune the dimensions, port sizes etc to try and get the natural voice of the cab close to what you want. You can basically mess around until the graph looks like what you want: flat or not, low end roll off point, midrange peaks and troughs etc etc. Last I looked there was a flash version of the software on their site, no download needed.
-
It's worth doing. Jacks work fine, speakons are so much better, safer and more secure.
-
Hi, indeed it does.
-
I think so. I found this on the net, seems easier to follow.
-
Yeah that would work fine, just make sure that all of the +1 are touching each other, and the same for all of the -1 and have at it. Overdo this though and take your time, rather than skimp and rush. There's a fair amount of current going through your soldering handiwork.

Bass player wanted for new blues covers band - Newcastle
Jack replied to Rexel Matador's topic in Bassists Wanted
I just messaged you on Facebook about this. If you're a member here does this mean that you're the outgoing bassist? Or if they're a new band does that mean that you're playing guitar? -
[quote name='molan' timestamp='1495647001' post='3305612'] Is the Kemper the Power-rack version? Like this: [url="http://sxpro.co.uk/kemper-profiler-powerrack-remote"]http://sxpro.co.uk/k...owerrack-remote[/url] [/quote] Hey molan. Sorry, I meant to withdraw the Kemper (actually, I did but maybe didn't save the edited post correctly) as I have decided to keep it. It's the unpowered version anyway. I initially wanted the powered one but 600W is a bit weedy these days and it's not [i]supposed[/i] to run into 4R so I went for the other one. I had the QSC listed above and have since opted for active cabs.
-
Please do come to a show, I always like meeting basschatters! Just be kind and bear in mind that there is usually a severe inverse correlation between gear and talent...
-
Bump!
-
Just as an aside, those are the specs for the AMP, not the amp IN the cab. Look at the powered 21" sub, same specs.
