Gibson shelving another brand they bought
EBS_freak replied to fretmeister's topic in General Discussion
Umm... right. Not sure of your point. Guys do have a habit of starting again especially when the no compete agreement usually put in place after the sale is over. Other examples is when people are ditched by the company that has purchased them... Mark Gooday and Ashdown rising from Trace for example following the original Kaman sale. -

I didn't say they would do the right things with the figures! -

I don't know the figures but this doesn't entirely surprise me. Cakewalk must be way down the ranking in terms of the market that it is in competing in... and the market is getting ever more saturated and fiercely competitive. If you look at every one of their products, there is a more successful offering from the competition... or a cheaper/free/open source one. I hate to see brands die But Gibson is a business and they'll be looking at the figures above everything else. SWR and Genz are interesting examples too... Give it a few more years and SWR and Genz will not even be a memory. Doesn't mean that they weren't great products... but the F name still carries more weight from a marketing point of view... whether the interested party be 12 or 92 years of age. Even somebody with no particular interest in music will be able to recognise the Fender name. The same will never be able to be said for SWR or Genz. -

Winning rig. People seem to forget that the drivers that are used in PA speakers are generally superior to those found in even boutique bass cabs...

Hello - OK - so there isn't any digital artifacts like you describe... however if the profile that you are using is noisy, then the output will be noisy.... like an amp. If it's got hiss going on due to the gain, then so does the Kemper. It certainly doesn't feel digital - in fact, it's quite openly known that it tricks most people into thinking that it is the real deal. I've never used the headphones output so can't give you an answer to that - however, volume is subjective and also the volume you experience is also down to the impedance of the headphones that you use. I believe that the PJBs are 32 Ohm should be ok for use without a headphone amp for most applications... but there's nothing stopping you from using a seperate headphone amp. Headphone amps can be picked up for not a great deal - so shouldn't be a deal breaker - and if you've already got some, then job done. So rigs are generally just the sound of the amps - whether that be clean or dirty.... and can be profiles with or without cabs. If you were to put a drive pedal in front of the amp that you are profiling, then that sound would make up your resulting profile. You can't remove the pedal. Typically you run a number of profiles of the same amp - from clean to dirty with all shades inbetween. The Kemper does allow for the addition and subtraction of gain - but wont go from clean to dirty as well as if you are running separate profiles of the amp running at different gains. You can EQ on all profiles. The Kemper has fx built in - modulations, delays, octaves and drives (yes, it has models of dirt pedals that can be placed in front of any profile) - these are basically virtual stomp boxes that can be added and removed to the base profile... as they would be a traditional amp. I should mention that you can only profile amps, drives and distortions. Time based effects cannot be profiled.

Having experienced the drum show for the first time last weekend, I can assure you that the Bingley and Bass shows are somewhat silent in comparison. Ridiculous!

Used to belong to XXXX Where XXXX is a minor "celebrity" - where upon googling, you are left none the wiser.

It's meant to be 3/4 March with Bingley Hall guitar show being 24-25 Feb... so some exhibitors are going to have a fun fortnight!

Hard case/Flight case for gear - advice needed
EBS_freak replied to Gunsfreddy2003's topic in Accessories and Misc
Also remember - full on flightcases are great for keeping your equipment safe whilst denting your car as they slide around. -
I absolutely guarantee I would.

Used to? Oh dear, what happened there then? administrate <> systems migration
-
Lets keep this real - it's not as if the Air Traffic Control systems have gone off line. If people can't live without BC, they have a serious addiction. Maybe they should seek some help! Machines - I think your understanding of a complex IT system is still whack though.
-
Not being funny... if you think that BC is a complex IT system.... Anyway, good luck with the get well process all. You'll get it nailed shortly I'm sure

Full disclosure- Unless you want to advertise stuff for sale.

For sale. One possessed bass. Also... It's dinged to f**k but it does have a hard case to keep it safe. Or is it a self harming bass?

Don’t let your wife loose on the Maruszczyk configurator
EBS_freak replied to Merton's topic in General Discussion
Woooo. I also love the OP and the Paisleys. -
Slight damage to the underneath. Fitted with Straplocks. I think we can guess the order in which these events happened.

Powercon should be standard I agree. With most of my gear racked and having made custom connector plates, I think I am down to just two IEC connectors. Just read my post back - should have probably said power as opposed to IEC! Habit I guess!
