yes they’re designed for it specifically. They work on 3/4s too where they have a slightly lower tension alternative to 3/4 weichs, whereas on a 4/4 they’ll be at their design tension (which is still weich, but a bit less floppy). Id love to trt them on a 4/4 if I had one 😄

offers welcome bump

visible for the next 30 days or so:

an absolute gem. when I walk into his shop I suddenly feel like I'm in rural france with all the time in the world. an amazing guy who does amazing work!

Just a few days old, save a packet.👍

4/4 Spirocore Weich Full Set.

there are other tutorials for other softwares, and all the softwares are pretty similar in principle. I have a technical background but to be honest once the router setup was done, and some basic terminal knowledge is there, I found that all the audio routing stuff was only as difficult as e.g. learning how to use Logic and route things to your audio interface in the right way. Once you grasp what the inputs and outputs in Jack are and where signals are going, it becomes clear.

I'll be keeping up with this field a bit in a sort of journalistic capacity, and will soon have an article on the ISM site where I interview a few of the software developers involved. Keep an eye out and I'll try to remember to post an update here too.

With decent internet and proximity, it is possible to play online (and record and livestream) in realtime, in high quality, with other musician(s). There are plenty of programs available for this but they're all quite similar. I've put up an exhaustive tutorial for one particular method, on Youtube.

It's a long video to cater to absolute beginners, but the process itself is pretty short and you can use the timestamps (in the description, on Youtube) to click through quickly once you've cracked each section. 

This topic has recently gone from being a niche pre-occupation of mostly interested amateurs, to something of interest to most professional musicians. I'll be getting together an article to summarise the principles of this type of software, to try and help us become 'informed consumers' of it, in the same we as we are informed consumers of bass gear and so on. 

Enjoy.

PS — pm is best to get in touch!

I'm a professional bassist based in London (not that location matters at the moment) with many years of diverse experience. I've a high-quality home setup for giving online lessons, via Skype or preferably Zoom, and am a patient and articulate teacher. 🙂

I'm happy to teach pretty much any aspect of electric bass playing. You will particularly benefit from lessons with me if you're interested in:

-- applying theory and harmonic understanding to your basslines and solos

-- developing a reliable, consistent, safe and adaptable technique

-- general musicianship

-- ear-training

-- sight-reading

For more details about me, look here: https://johnjosephwilliamson.com. Get in touch if you're interested!

• Daddario Kaplan light new, 140€ (very good orchestral string, easy to play, thin diameter)
• Innovation Polychrome, new 140€ (perfect old school pizz sound, very much like wrapped gut strings, they bow well and have a nice dark tone)

Second in line! Missed this before, didn’t see the price drop. Cheers

Set of Spirocore solos wanted, either 3:4 or 4:4. Failing that, I only really need the A D and G!

Hello. I’m after buying a used Obli, Oliv or maybe Gut G String or similar, to put on top of some Spirocore 3/4 weichs. Anyone got anything?
