Holding that knob for 10 seconds until tune-with-bypass is a bit much, no? Even 2 for regular tuning would freak me out a little. And no super clear visual feedback? I'll bring my old Korg DT10. On stage cable goes into the bypass-plug and not ever will the audience by accident hear me tune...

thanks, that was fast! :bassist: So what would I need (off the shelf) to sound roughly like that? Is that what a fretless P sounds like?

Hello, can anybody identify this bass: Paul Simon - The boy in the bubble - YouTube and give a rough idea what else is involved to create this particular sound (amps, EQ...)? Thanks :)!

I found this video very informative and inspiring, so awesome to see the different musicians close, getting it explained by all those stars, I really like Nathan East and totally understand their point ... but couldn't help but notice a tiny little bit of repetition, rubbing it in. "YA WE...

I got the bass version recently and I'm happy with it. It is a practice tool, and you can take your beloved bass where you want and practice/play. It's probably not super-hifi, but I like it, particularly with my studio headphones. - as karter2000 said you can dial in some gain (and volume...

My Theory on this: if you want to record your album, go to a professional studio. For anything else, it can/should be easy, simple and cheap. I also wanted some effects software so I narrowed it down to: Invalid Link Removed Invalid Link Removed and went with guitar rig. If I had a...

For everyone who is worrying about a clever band name, have a look Link Removed

The only thing I can contribute to this is, make up your mind if you really need a "mixer", as recommended by gmarcus if you are just recording and not, say, mixing a band live with it. I ended up adjusting levels etc. on the instrument and directly in Cubase. I found the size, weight, and...

Well, regarding money: it is a one-time expense, a small amount over your lifetime. Also, many people lose teeth in accidents, and/or have very expensive operations on their teeth for various reasons. Many fighters, hockey players and other athletes have to do without their front teeth. You...

My take on this is, that you should get a combo, unless you know what kind of sound you're after and which combination of amp/speakers, or even tubes etc. would provide that. Also I wouldn't do anything just because I don't want to look "unprofessional" or whatever. So I'd go for a 1x12...

Pause, press Print Screen, open Paint, ctrl-v, select what you need (square dotted box icon on the left side), ctrl-c, ctrl-n, "no", ctrl-v, ctrl-s, select .jpg, upload to Talkbass, done!

Wow what? Sell the AF-9? :eek: sit on it for a while??? :eyebrow: Anyway, here are my clips, first time I've done anything like that, so feel free to comment or ask questions or request other settings and let me know if this helps. 1. clean - Musicman Stingray through Markbass 121 through...

Oh I like little a Ibanez AF-9 chat so here is what I got: I bought mine recently on ebay, paid 85€ after researching these kinds of pedals for quite some time and I'm very happy with it! I like the fact that it is easy to dial in, "Range" just "high" or "low", Filter either "HP"...

I would suggest lowering your standards for the band you'd play in or the teacher you'd work with for a while. I used to play in a band where I didn't really fit in because I just wanted to know where I stand with my playing. I stayed as long as I could and kept my opinions on the other...

The reason why you only hear it throught the PA is because the PA amplifies the higher frequencies more than your amp. I'm in the same situation (before and after a battery change): loud hum unless I tough the strings or any metal part on the bass. I used to have the bass and treble knobs on...
