  1. Will still break down when you look at it though.
  2. I guess you could spray on a poly finish and buff that. Of course, the key thing is how precise the sizing has to be.
  3. Yup - you got it. The scaremongering tactic.
  4. Will 3D printed items withstand a buffing wheel to get high glossed?
  5. @stoo - how many pins are you utilising at the moment? Was thinking about projecty stuff last night whilst driving. ESP8266 may give you the option of a web based editor which may be easier for bulk configuration... meaning that touch screen could be for just on the gig changes. Mind you, if you've got your phone with you...
  6. The reality is, that when it comes to speccing PA, monitor wedges always tend to suffer - if there’s money to be saved it’s always the wedges that people skimp on... hence the perception of wedges not being able to give a great sound. In reality, if the wedges were of the same quality of the superior FOH speakers, this would not be the case. Youre right though, IEM saves the day.
  7. None of that comes into it. I take a feed from the desk and mic the room.
  8. Ha! You wait to what me and the drummer are working on (the drummer on this video is on perc on the next, we like to switch around)... unbelievable chops. Video? We hired a theatre, few lights here and there... the all important star cloth and then I called upon an old mate who has some Canon C100 cameras on Ronin 2s. He does all the social media for Bellator now... and our schedules happened to align. There was nothing particularly special about it... just worked out well. I actually prefer the colour and feel of the other song we played that day - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JYU6Y3RKI2Y
  9. No worries. Glad it's of use. Maybe the split thing will work for you... the key thing is communications with the sound guy so they know whats going on... but more often and not they are accommodating and interested in what you are doing. As long as you are sticking to IEMs you are cool. No sound guys will appreciate you deploying your own wedges!
  10. Cheers Stevie. It's getting a bit long in the tooth now... we have just started looking at getting something new out. Our ethos has always been to do play pop songs as we would want to hear them performed by the artist live, rather than just trying to reproduce the recorded version live. I hope the big "guitar" ending kinda cements that home without being a "rock" version of the track which is the path a lot of bands seem to head down.
  11. A load of Ariana Grande tracks. Or shall I say, I'm arranging Ariane Grande tracks and writing up bass lines, that I am then learning.
  12. What sort of gigs are you doing? Is it worth carrying around a small monitoring rig that you split off to FoH? Check out section 5 here -
  13. I reckon this shape would look great with a smooth matte slate grey with darker grey decals. It's a cool shape and I love that rear contour.
  14. Google calendar. Although an acceptance for a date doesn't tend to mean a great deal of late.
  15. Ah true. Is there a MIDI implementation chart? As you say though, no feedback to acknowledge program change.
  16. Hey @stoo - was thinking about this project again thinking about easy to implement small little improvements. Playing with my Kemper, (which annoys me due to the lack of scribble strips on the foot pedal) I thought... aha, you could assign LED colours/state colours (maybe for FX type etc) using ws2812b pixels - at a cost of only one pin because the strip is addressable. Cheap, easy to implement... and if you are going down the programmable route anyway, gives you an easy at a glance colour coded status. Anyway, just a thought. There's plenty of pixel libraries out there which would get you up and running in minutes.
  17. Oh yeah. I'd love a Hofner violin 5er bass. I'd be all over that. Otherwise, I would never choose to pick it up. It would just be in it's case and looked at now and again. And then sold cos I never play it.
  18. Also @GreeneKing - the blue LED in there to which you refer - are those the ones from the post further above. If so, it would seem that the voltage on the Fafner light is not 42v... or 48v otherwise those LEDs would have been toasted. In reality, I am guessing that the stock bulbs are mismatched on the voltage front - maybe intentionally, to give a more valve like glow as opposed to a bright light? May be worth getting a meter in there next time somebody has one open so we know what the actual voltage being delivered is.
  19. Looks great. I always thought the Fafner looks better with blue lights on the right anyway... but each to their own!
  20. I reckon they'll be targeting DB751 money... however, what with Megxit and all that kinda stuff and import duties and stuff, I hope for EBS' sake it's cheap enough to make it a viable option in the UK.
  21. Congrats. Building your own stuff is proper satisfying isn’t it?
  22. A certain screw in a certain strap lock.
  23. Coming up to 5 years. Impressive.
  24. Yeah, totally - it didn't do them any favours did it? I think a lot of people would have discarded on the published figures alone without even testing it.
  25. I'd concur, with regard to the DRs. OK, they are not Hi-beam bright.. but they are certainly bright as opposed to super bright. As you say, I never really dug on Elixirs because they didn't do the Hi-beam thing, but I wanted a tighter string than a Hi-beam which is why I eventually settled on Lo-riders (which is near enough damn it Hi-beam sounding).
