Thanks, trying to avoid having a computer on stage to be honest, lookin for something made-for-purpose that is a little more robust. I don't trust computers to be reliable in the field!

Hello. Any luck findin something foot-operated? I've been trying to find out if there's any way of plugging a MIDI footswitch unit into a Akai MPX8 and triggering samples that way. Our drummer uses an Alesis sample pad, which works great, but I wanted to expand the number of samples we can use...

Hi Rob, thanks for the update. I took my kilo out of the rack to give it better ventilation. It still cut out quite quickly (maybe 2 minutes) in bridge mode. I positioned a small fan pointing at it and it lasted a little longer, but then still cut out. I thought the problem was only in...

Hi. Anyone find a solution to this problem? I just got a Kilo this week, and it's been cutting out in bridge mode. I assume because it's getting too hot. It's in a 3u rack flight case so doesn't have much space around it. Maybe it would be better out of the case? Have not had time to try...

Yeah, I did think of doing that, but I doubt I'd get what it's worth selling it second hand, and I thought that if I separate it into a cab and a head I can upgrade to the rig that I want in stages, as I can't really afford to fork out all in one go for the £1,500/£2000 that I'd need to spend to...

It's this Ashdown 410 http://www.ashdownmusic.com/bass/detail.asp?section=legacy&ID=11 The head slides out fairly easily if you take a few screws out. I was going to make a sturdy wooden box to house it. Presumably if all the wiring and everything that isn't exposed now stays not exposed then...

this one just has a jack that connects the two parts. appart from that they're completely separate. I've taken the head out before and it's just two screws that hold it in. So it wont affect the acoustics of the cab or anything like that?

Hello. If I want to use the head part of a combo to power a different cab is there any reason why I can't just physically take the head out and build a new box to house it? That way I'd then have a separate head and cab right? Can that lead to any problems that I haven't foreseen? Your...

ok, thanks for the advice guys.

So adding another 410 would thicken out the low end significantly? I don't really need anymore volume in the mid range, just looking for defenition and more punch in the lows. thanks

oh, ok. What I'm really looking for is much more solid lower end. The mid tone has a lot of punch to it, but I play a 5 string and find that the lower notes on the low B string lack defenition. I'm playing drum and bass, ska, dub, and want to get the low end loud with out it getting rumbly and...

I'll probably give the MarkBass pedal a go then, doesn't seem like anyone has anything bad to say about it. The place I'm gunna order it from does a 30 day money back garantee anyway, so I've got nothing to lose.

yeah, I looked at that website before. It's good and comprehensive.

Hello, I was thinking of getting a compressor pedal, and after looking at many product reviews am interested in the MarkBass Compressore. Does anyone have any experience with this product? Thanks

Thanks for your help guys. And while we're on the subject, do you happen to know if the amp in the combo, which is 575W I think, is powerful enough to run the extra 15" as well as the 4x10? The 1x15s that I have been looking at all say power handling: 400W RMS. I don't know much about it...
