[quote name='pantherairsoft' timestamp='1331247092' post='1570419'] I edit my last post before you replied - sorry about that. Day/weekend trip to Notts is the answer! [/quote] Could be doable let me work out logistics and stuff.

[quote name='pantherairsoft' timestamp='1331246805' post='1570411'] Course! Thats my idea of heaven. [/quote] If only shipping my board wouldnt be a pain Think i should order some george l's and cables too.

[quote name='pantherairsoft' timestamp='1331244013' post='1570341'] Loads of options. GigRig has the benefit of being so powerful that it will always have room to grow. You're kind of future proofing your power system if you end up with a massive board. At the end of day, you just need whatever works for you bud! [/quote] The others seem to have x amount per output. The gigrig seems to share. Think i might order after payday. Shep - dont suppose you fancy another board to feng shui up? heh

[quote name='pantherairsoft' timestamp='1331241787' post='1570306'] Ouch. Yeah some pedals are a bit of a bummer like that. The adapter would be a monster as well - bigger than some pedals! lol [/quote] I'm still unsure if the gig rig way would be best. Might have a gander at the voodoo labs one..

[quote name='pantherairsoft' timestamp='1331236520' post='1570162'] My money would be on the power supply not giving it what it wants! You heard from Dan? [/quote] Hah yeah! Std base 2 thing. Except the dha... Which needs 3(!) supernova's in paralell. Think i'll get another supply for that. Power for all (bar dha) - 160 quid Power for all (inc dha) - like 300 odd! :|

[quote name='phatkat' timestamp='1330710214' post='1562080'] Just how many Aberdeen/N/E based bass players are there on here? G... [/quote]we should have an Aberdeen bass bash well by that, I mean all go to the pub for a pint.

Hi guys, Thought I'd be better asking this here. I have one of the above but it's been humming and buzzing majorly, I kinda just want to try a proper 12v 1200mA one and see what like. Anyone know which to get? Or does anyone have one I could borrow and see if it works? Dave

Can I place first dibs when you guys decide that you really miss the insanely heavy valve stacks and decide to sell?

[quote name='thepurpleblob' timestamp='1331125232' post='1568008'] Hmmm..... been in some dodgy places in the west of Scotland too. Unfortunately, phoning the police is simply not the done thing - it would actually make it worse (the police are, of course, mostly useless and you would definitely get stabbed or a kicking). Having said that, most of these nutters are full of sh*t and getting into a conversation with them is too complicated for them. What you should have said is, "sure mate, we'll play anything you like". He won't notice you didn't and if he does swear blind you did and claim he must have been outside for a fag. Just don't get into arguments with these low-lives!! I was told once something along the lines that if I didn't support the right football team I wasn't getting out of the place alive. I just laughed and said I was from England where they don't have proper football Note to dmmcombe7 above who appears to live 10 mins up the road from me.... stay away from Viewpark [/quote] Heh I played a venue in Glasgow that seemed to accodate for skinhead nazi's! Major fear when one shouted "I'll HAE THE BASS PLAYER!" No. No you will not. *Run away*

Thats pretty mental. I'd have have reported them. I'd also name and shame the venue - if enough people bugger off the gigs, the management might listen then.

[quote name='EskimoBassist' timestamp='1329064359' post='1536661'] 2 M9s live, what is this madness?! [/quote] Madness.... Madness?!? THIS. IS. DUBSTEP! Sorry - Couldn't help myself

[quote name='RichF' timestamp='1331123797' post='1567976'] I found the DHA VT2 brilliant but very sensitive to the quality etc of power supply. To be fair Dave is very clear on the need to power properly. This all sounds like an ideal way to get the most out of a VT2. [/quote] In all honesty - I've never used it. It buzzed and hummed like a bitch. Kinda just ignored it. If it worked for a light distortion I'd be very happy!

Funnily enough I'm doing the exact same just now. I'm looking at a gigrig setup - so 5000mA to play with! I think I need about 1800 or so. Shep raised a good point in my thread - power supplies are like amps - so need some headroom. Might be worth baring that in mind.

[quote name='pantherairsoft' timestamp='1331121485' post='1567900'] That'll be fine mate - looking at the pedals left over there is nothing horrid so I'd bang that on an email to dan. My Prediction. 1 Generator 2 Distributors 1 SupaNova (for DHA) 1 Reverse Polarity adapter (for DHA) The SupaNova may be swapped for something else depending on how the DHA take to the power consumption. [/quote]Cheers mate - Sent him a mail.

[quote name='pantherairsoft' timestamp='1331121049' post='1567883'] 1200mA for the DHA - really!!!!? I imagine all the others will be very low draw and wouldn't worry about them too much. Nothing digital and demanding there. Does everything work on centre negative supplies? Source Audio BEF is 145mA max according to the manual. [/quote]well it's 500mA - but the site says to use the 1200mA. [url="http://www.davehallamps.co.uk/page29.html"]http://www.davehallamps.co.uk/page29.html[/url] I think all centre negative except the DHA.

Right so far I have.. [list] [*]Akai Deep Impact (9v 180mA -) [*]Iron Ether Oxide (9v -) [*]Iron Ether Xenograph (9v -) [*]SFX loop (9v -) [*]SFX Blue Dragon (9v -) [*]CoPilot Dubscope (9v -) [*]Boss OC2 (9v 4mA -) [*]Source Audio BEF (9v 250mA -) [*]Boss TU2 (9v 55mA -) [*]Possibly DHA VT2 thingy - (12v 1200mA +) [/list] Have emailed Max, Adam and Taylor about the SFX, CoPilot and Iron Ether ones. The email form on the source audio site doesn't work - but the "suggested psu" is 9v 250mA so used that.

[quote name='pantherairsoft' timestamp='1331111185' post='1567650'] Ta Da! The Generator will work a treat. Pretty much everything is 9v. The DHA might be 12v but the SupaNova adapter will take care of that. The high draw stuff may need some tweaking so you need to do the following. Rewrite your list above and confirm and voltages you are unsure about. List the polarity of each pedal. Add the draw (mA) next to each pedal is you can - particularly any high draw units (say 250mA +). Email it to Dan @ GigRig. He will work out if any special adapters are needed. When you get the stuff. If anything doesn't play ball, let Dan know and he'll tweak/adjust/modify adapters for you as you go (some pedals react odd in chains even when on paper they are fine!) until its perfect. I would think you'll just need an adapter for the DHA plus the cheap polarity changers for each pedal that centre positive (if any are), though if any have a huge draw then something may be needed (Deep impacts draw?). Email Dan and he'll tell you exactly what you need. Wicked product and even better service & after care. [/quote] Cheers mate. Now the fun part of finding out that info! The Deep Impact isin't as high as I thought (180mA) - though that does explain why it doesn't like my current 450mA one!

That would be brilliant if I could power them all. Also be even better if I could have nice and tidy cables! Need to buy some lengths of cable and george l's too I think.

[quote name='EskimoBassist' timestamp='1331078586' post='1567473'] I think you wanna ask Shep on this one! [/quote] Hah I imagine he'll be along soon. I think he's like us and lives in this forum!

Well thats the thing, with the switching loop; the deep impact, blue dragon, oxide are always on (so thats 4 at once) - so about 6 at once? maybe 7? Thats actually quite scary... I'm using a cheapo soundlabs thing that puts out 450mA and i'm waiting for the day it packs in. lasted several years so far..touch wood.

Yup - I'd say synth pedal. Deep impact has a sound very like that - its one I actually use lots. Havent tried the EHX BMS to comment.

Agree with buying 2nd hand. I did that when we had our own practice space. Cost me 400 quid I think?
