    IEM question-- Linsoul KZ Z210 Pro

    I think the seal is good. I'll have to check listening to them on regular music. haven't done that yet, great idea. I don't think I have a way of tone shaping/EQing only for the monitor. I run them off the board from the sound guy (XVive transmitter from the soundboard to our XVive...

    IEM question-- Linsoul KZ Z210 Pro

    Moreso the bass sounds brittle. The mix itself is pretty brittle as well but I'm more focused on the bass tone which lacks depth. My signal is running from my amp's DI (Genzler Magellan, post-EQ).

    IEM question-- Linsoul KZ Z210 Pro

    Anyone used these? This is my first foray into IEM's. I bought these based on rec from the people on Scott's Bass Lessons. My experience after a couple of gigs is that they are very detailed but also very brittle/thin sounding. Is this the expectation for an IEM? It's fine, I can hear...

    Need better punch

    Appreciate all the thoughtful replies. I got to hear some audience video today of our last gig which was in a record store/bar that had a polished concrete floor and lots of windows, ie. highly reverberant room. From audience vantage point on the video (taken w an iPhone so definitely not full...

    Need better punch

    Ok. Let me expound a little. When I think punch I think tight low end with a well defined fundamental that produces a little thump in your chest. I’ve always considered this to be an accentuation around 300hz with reinforcement around 800hz but maybe I’m wrong about that. While I...

    Need better punch

    Hi all— long time since I’ve been here Currently in a rock band with two, and at times three guitars plus keys and drums. I’ve been struggling to dial in enough punch in my tone to cut through with clarity without cranking my overall volume too much. This especially becomes problematic when I...

    Help locating a japanese made bass

    Need some help. Years ago I fell in love with a unique Japanese made bass. The interesting tone of the instrument has stuck with me for years and I would like to track it down again. Problem— for the life of me I can’t remember the name of the manufacturer, just the interesting story of the...

    Cabinet compare & contrast

    Curious about the tonal differences between the following cabs. I won't have a chance to a/b them myself. Aguilar GS112 vs. Epifani PS112 Epifani PS4x10, PS3x10 and Eden WT4x10. If this has already been discussed, I apologize. Searched around a bit and haven't found anything that gets...
