the WLE ones - while you need to buy 10, they are very cheap aren't they. ( I used the wle ones in my wedgehorn - no probs - 63p each for 10!) just found this in thumpers build diary - [quote]4-no. Generic 1016-type Piezo Tweeters MPT-016 (CPC Farnell part. no. LS02367 - £1.86 each)[/quote] - Post a build diary - go on! max

I have a mate who does amp/electronic repairs on Norfolk/suffolk border - he's one of the guys who does stuff for several of the shops. If you're interested, PM and I'll pass his details max

I'm just starting a new business so can't spare any time, sorry. max may be persuaded to lend my omni10 - as long as someone else transports it and gets it back for the weekend as i'm gigging it. That person would need to be from Norfolk .

Build a BFM cab and buy a splendid amp to match - what you save on the cab, you can spend even more on the amp! If i lost my BFM cab I wouldn't hesitate in building another - no other cabs come close. max

Take the time to enjoy it 'cos it'll be over so quickly. Then organise gig no 2 and don't stop! You'll be fine.

may I be the first to point you to [url="http://www.billfitzmaurice.com/"]http://www.billfitzmaurice.com/[/url] - designs, theory and a good forum when you can learn stuff. There are several build diary's on our previous site which haven't made it here (yet - I'm still hoping someone does it!). max

[quote name='neepheid' post='1287' date='May 18 2007, 11:36 AM']DHL are rubbish though............My only word of caution is therefore to make sure you're getting the stuff delivered somewhere where you can be sure it will be signed for.[/quote] Couldn't agree more. thomann work well, DHL are a pain. Assuming their postcode readers actually put the parcel in the correct area, getting the parcel if you're not in gets increasingly difficult. max

I use a Rode NT2 for vox and acoustic instruments - I have SM57 for amps and occasional acoustic guitars and a SM58 for live work only - doesn't really cut it in the studio - the more you can spend on a mic, the better the end product. A good compressor is nice but it can't make up for a cheap mic. In fact compressors are another topic -i think there's a sticky on basstalk that needs moving over but it's not mine and i don't know how to do it! Compressors vary in character so a good comp for bass would not sound at all good on vocal. max

It's me in Stuttgart at an open air thing a couple of years ago - seem to have less hair these days and wear even more hats. Seen here with a NZ bush hat, bought in NZ I found a less hair pic! The hat was bashing the roof so had to go! max

Morning all. I would also like to thank all those responsible for sorting this lot out and keeping it going. Well done all. Max
