    15 minutes between bands - no backline provided...?

    I played a gig on a stage like that once. 2 pool tables moved together with some plywood on top. Good times.

    Thanks for asking. Not really looking for trades right now. Only exceptions being a DAM Dope Priest, or EQD Black Ash, but that would be it.

    What Song Intro Causes You To Immediately Turn Up The Volume?

    There's some gold in this here thread! My 2cts: Katatonia - Forsaker Type O Negative - I Don't Wanna Be Me Ozzy - Paranoid This version always makes the volume go up, and the gas pedal go down.

    "ASTAROTH"

    This. ^^^ I have to confess I have a vested interest in this project. My stage name was Astaroth, back when I played in a metal band. Can't wait to see the results!

    Favorite reverbs?

    I went with the Walrus Audio Slö. There is some nice modulation if you want it, but the main selling point to me was the tone knob. It lets you dial out any treble that interferes with the clean sound.

    First time jamming advice

    This. Listening really is the most important part. Then having fun - second most important. Good luck!

    Thanks for the advice @JimmyM . I may break down and buy a midi controller to make my life easier with the C4.

Sounds so far: - Clean bass / slight overdrive - Clean with a goodly amount of delay - Fretless I'm starting to work on some of the synth sounds now. Octave, Filter...

    Lightweight touring rig - Help

    I agree with all the Genzler, Aguilar and Mesa recommendations. I have a Magellan 800, and have played through a TH500 and Subway 800. The Magellan can go from pristine to warm. The Mesa and Aguilar both do gritty and dirty better, which you may like for a rock band. Good luck!

    Cab-less, anyone?

    Hey everyone! I just joined an electronic band as their live bassist. We're using in ears to hear the click track and some of the instruments. Going through my pedalboard to a Magellan 800 for the DI. I'm planning on bringing my 12-3 cab to gigs, just in case. Everything's going pretty smooth...
