There are songs that it isn't appropriate. There are basslines that don't translate well to the five string. The fourth fret of the B string doesn't sound the same as an open E tuned down a half step. I play a 5 string, and I use tuning pedals for most things. If I didn't, I would change...

5 strings are not really an appropriate way to do it on every song. I use my Helix for tuning changes. We tune down 1/2 step normally, but some songs we do in standard. It's easy to step on a switch and be in a different tuning. It's also easy to forget to turn it off, which is a big issue...

Size matters depending on the speakers. You have to design the cabinet around them. If the guy building your cabinets is competent, he should know the correct dimensions. Eminence has designs for cabinets in the spec sheets if you don't know how to do it yourself. There are loads of amps...

What, exactly, is your point? You're trying to say something, and it may be worth hearing, but I can't figure out exactly what it is.

Now, no one will watch them. Paramount+ is the worst streaming service with no content, and the new Star Trek shows are abominations with no draw.

The Middle by Jimmy Eat World We have to to play it every time. It's not a particularly fun or interesting song, but the audience eats it up.

I think most people that have issues with the Helix and Pod Go don't understand the cab blocks. That is simply the single most important part of your entire signal chain. I typically use the SVT cab with either the R121 or 160 mic. Those mics have a much more even frequency response than a...

What do you not like? What are you using as a monitor? It can most definitely sound as good, but there's million reasons why it might not.

I've used 12.2s over a pair of JBL PRX718XLFs for a while now. It works and sounds great, but the tops will outrun the subs pretty easily. I run the subs on aux crossed at 100hz, but I've used the crossovers in both tops and subs. It all works and sounds fine.

Now buy five more subs and you'll have a nice, balanced rig!

Yes, and I deserved it. I had lost myself, and my way. It was the chance I needed to reboot myself, and become the person, musician, and band mate I am today. The funny thing is, about five years later, I had to fire a guy for almost the exact same behaviors. At least I had youth and...

I've played guitar almost as long as bass, my drummer was my best man, and I have no tort. I'm a pariah!

Depends on where you are. NYC, I'd probably not be real excited. However, we've only had 12 cases in the county, most of them were the last week of March/first week of April, and it's time to get back to work.

Itll block the port, which isnt recommended. They make great PA tops if you can figure out that problem.

So...
