Hi again! before I got answered here, I went ahead and plugged the bassists head to the sole upper hole of the cab. Well, I'm positive that at least the top4 speakers are operational now. Unfortunately, didn't help much. ..It could be that it is me that is loosing hearing. :D I obviously...

Hi!! Our bassplayer seems deaf. The amount of low end and volume he is using drowns everything out, makes drums resonate so that the drummers kick-triggers are making ghosthits when the bassist plays on the fifth fret, and STILL.. he's bending downwards to hear himself when we're playing. :D...

The BBE Sonic maximizer, clears the sound from "mud" by letting the highs go through but delaying the mids a little and bass some more, so the frequencies arrive in the order the ear is used to naturally. The frequencies might get mixed up because for example in long cable runs, the impedance...

It has become obvious I don't know a lot of stuff. Cabinet dynamics is one. But.. I've got a 4x12 cabinet, it has decent speakers (can't remember what) but it sounds like crap. Someone DIY:ed it, from solidwood, though. It isn't very deep, and I think that's why it sounds overly middley.. has...

Mic->preamp->in-ear transmitter, allrighty.. Sennheiser has a wireless mic with a preamp in it e908 B ew or something.. But I also want to avoid the hassle of trying to find electricity somewhere in the midst of our bands measely 5 min "line-check". So, battery operation would be a plus...

Hello! Is there some nifty gadget, that in a live situation, I could place a mic of my own to drums, and get it to a in-ear monitoring set? I posted this to drums because.. When gigging as a bassist OR a guitarist, all I need to hear is the drums. All I WANNA hear is the drums. But sadly, say...

I would like to add, that the no-money no-people gigging of the first band got me really not-willing to throw gigs at all!... The band chemistry is not an issue, we're having rehealsals today, drinks and sauna for the rest of the day!. :D But the sheer WORK and loss of your days out of work...

This is a difficult question. You CAN make it happen both ways, tour and gig OR maintain a decent online-thing going on... My first metal band has toured and thrown shitty gigs in small places with 10 or so people, for years, then hopped on the bill with some bigger names. Finally, a some sort...

Yeah, I could. But I'm getting the amp halfway next month, and have probably forgotten all about this conversation, my head is weird that way. :D

Bwuhah! Nice comment! :D

I think that playing a bass through a guitar amp is bad has something to do with the speakers.... Guitar speakers aren't built to withstand the lows... I've got a Novik mk-120 tube lead that I've been wanting to try with bass, as it has too much lows for guitar anyways. :D Just gonna put it...

Time being of essence, and VERY low on equipment. One stereo pair. That's as bare bones as it gets, but I've had a lot of success with that minimalist approach. A. IF you got time to record a say, hundred takes, the go ahead and mic the drummer first. one guitar playing along (if the drummer...

Heeeeelllo. My amp builder offered such a thing to increase gain on my amp to be. I dunno if it's necessary since there is allready a decent amount of it... But that COULD push it to "true high-gain"-territory... For Black-metal. :cool::D -Are there tonal trade-offs in distorting the hell out...

I liked the sound, good middle-range honk without fizz. -No way around it, return the bass from your amp to the bassplayer. :) -I'd try a sm57.. it's a tad narrower directionally taking less of the "booming" from surroundings. -Placing the mic is IMPORTANT, as you all know. Spending time at...

hmmmmm... I think I need to step away and asses things again.:rolleyes: Because, I had an ENGL preamp, and GAVE it away for being too tight in the bottom end... OK, the music has increased in speed somewhat, but I still like my bottom roaring...

Hi. There's some mixing/mastering attempts flying around of a couple of records I play in. And as I threw one mastering to Goldwave, it kept blinking the red lights. I let the poor mixercandidate have it. :D Later I dropped the same mix into Wavelab and noticed that the red clipping-indicators...

Kinda yes, just without simul-classes and the other bells and whistles. But yes, I can now see that those are, at least, doable. :D

The question about a couple of pres was regarding inside a single head. Not rack-systems, sorry for being unclear. The underline being that I'm going to have a head built as custom work, and I know I might want a single head, about 50 or 100watts. And thought that a graphic eq would be more...

Hello all! Haven't been around much since a band of mine got a deal with a label and I've been busy getting an album done on a rehealsalplace budget... Still a lot to do there.. But!.. I'm still sorting some things out in my head, of what do I want from my next guitar amp. First, why is the...

Hmmm... I think you misunderstood a bit.. Engl has some really high "tearing paper"-gain, but it's smooth... like: GSSSS..GSSSGGSS..GS. Dismember is like: T-T-TTRRRRRRR-AAAAAAARRRRHHH!!! :D Example; the prolonged chords in the beginning and after 4:00...
