Let's spread some musical misinformation

[dougjwray]

All of this fixation on gear is ridiculous. In a live setting, an audience -- and even the other musicians -- can't hear the difference between an SVT 8x10 cabinet and a practice amp with a single 8" speaker.

... quoted from the bass player who didn't notice his bandmates had turned his volume to 0 in desperation?

So true. And when I turned it up to compete, the speaker blew. The other guys thought I'd added an effects pedal.

Paranoid was swiftly written by Ozzy, after the cabin crew joked to him about the plane running out of fuel.

Crazy Train was written by Ozzy after a dream he had about being on a train that kept going faster and faster and couldn’t stop

Perhaps he was working for Norfolk Southern at the time.

Hey Jude covers are better than the original.

You might have run across the acronym "SBL" here on TB, and are wondering what it stands for. Well, let me solve that mystery for everyone. SBL stands for Saturday Bite Live. It's a TV show about vampires.

The 8x10 has 10 8" speakers.

"...It's a little known fact that it was this bass-man, Mr Burton himself,
who spawned a whole syllabus of erudition that began with his teaching music,
but now encompasses all forms of scholarly enlightenment,
presently known collectively as 'CLIFF's NOTES'."

Square dance music is always in 4/4 time, but for cube dance music you must switch to 8/8.

 

[Jay2U]

The theory of relativity tells us gravity is nothing more than the bending of spacetime by mass. Bent spacetime changes our perception of length and duration. Hence bassists have to tune in accordance with their mass.

 

[Leigh Semmens]

Are you trying to have a debate about mass? Start a new thread and have a mass de...... OTOH, don't!

Technology makes it so much easier to become an amazing musician.

(with apologies to the poster who posited that thought... a pleasant fellow who further described what he really meant later on... )

I’m a math tutor and I’m going to use this one!

For my contribution to this post, I will say that hip hop was invented in Australia to tame kangaroos.

After lengthy experimentation with cabinet placement, I've discovered that lying a cab flat on the floor (speakers pointed at the ceiling) yields the most even sound dispersion throughout a given space.
It has to do with the ratio of beaming to near-field decibel regularity, as well as the density of the frequency variation.
Simply put, 541÷5%+196×4y/500 @ a steady rate of 160 db, with the airflow at 98% or less, over a controlled period of regular oscillation = maximum results.

I think you'll find it difficult to argue with my findings.

Does this assume standard temperature and pressure?

Yes, and I also figured in altitude, as well as the Earth's rate of rotation at the given longitude.

Have you considered the Doppler effect due to earths rotation?
