    WMD Parametric EQ : knobs and frequency response

    I know this pedal is not exactly new, but a recent thread asking about parametric EQs popped up recently (Parametric EQ Pedal?) so I thought it could be interesting to someone. So the WMD Parametric EQ is a 3 band EQ, it looks like this : It's about the size of an MXR pedal, quite compact...

    Hi there, TB'ers! Question for anyone who can provide an answer -- when you opt to make an edit to one of your previous comments on TalkBass, does the omment then contain the word "EDIT:" before your edited response? It's probably been the way since the dawn of TalkBass, but I really noticed...

    Guarneri Quartet - Violin Viola Cello Chord as Impulse Response with Ardunio

    I listen classical music for 35 years and I did not listen a better music than Guarneri Quartet. They play a chord together and its unbeliviable. Now I have a 4 String Stagg Fretless and I want to hear Guarneri Quartet Chord sound from each note. I want to use short cut from their records as...

    Recommendations for desktop speakers with good bass tone

    Hey all, I want to buy a new pair of small desktop speakers for my desk at work. I can't listen to music loudly at work so they don't need to be super loud. I don't want to buy a subwoofer but I want crisp clear bass. I bought some cheap Amazon speakers and they aren't much better than the ones...

    Gallien-Krueger Neo 212 vs Epifani UL2-310 - freq response

    ok, yes, i know these are two very different classes of cabinets, but can anyone that's used both, or knows the sound of both these cabs comment on what the difference in frequency response is like between them? ie. is one more neutral/flat than the other (vs scooped or boomy etc)? can one...

    Dang it, I did it again! When will I learn? Answered another CL ad for a bass player. Sounded really good, local, pro, wanted samples of my music. No problem, I sent them my Soundcloud “audition” playlist. Got this response: “I was trying to say that your soindcloud link songs do not really...

    Are using Cab IR's at home a good way to demo Cabinets?

    Hi guys, I've recently been getting into using Cab Impulse Responses at home for recording and experimentation, and have found them extremely fun to play around with and get a feel for the different sound characteristics each one has. I usually default to the redwirez SVT 810, but I also...

    Seymour Duncan Response

    Recent email string with Seymour Duncan. This is after waiting 9-days for a response, which I assumed was spent researching my question. Was he: (1) lazy to understand (or ask for clarification), or (2) dumb. Yes, I absolutely don’t mind publically putting someone on blast for a lazy-ass...

    Cab Impulse Response Megathread

    Fellow TBers, With the announcement of the AO-Ultra, I thought it might be a good idea to try to make a Cab IR megathread. Once I get my AOU, I might even review some of these. For now, I just wanted to start a baseline thread and see if many people contributed suggestions, and then go from...

    East J-Retro Pre-shape vs Flat Response

    I have been looking at the J-Retro for a while. Has anyone tried both the standard pre-shape and the flat response? Can the flat response dial in the pre-shape but not the other way around? I am looking to use this in a Jazz with Duncan Antiquities and pedalboard (comp, b3k, modulation, delay)...

    Pickup response.

    We played a small outdoor gig Saturday. During sound check the sound guy comes up with his tablet and says, I'm getting no highs from you, play a note.". I play and he shows me some sort of frequency thing and sure nuff nothing over 400hz. I reach down and grab my tone and crank the treble, on a...

    Is there really a correlation between watts and bass response.

    Can an amp produce more bass than you can use?

    Monitor frequency response and personal audiometry

    Since audiograms for people vary based on their personal hearing characteristics (health, age, previous noise exposure, etc.), can someone please describe how to evaluate claims of flat frequency response in sound reproduction or recording equipment? For example, studio monitors are described as...

    Unplugged bass guitar frequency response - does it matter?

    I wonder if anybody has measured their unplugged bass guitar frequency response. I used Audacity freeware to measure my Mexican build Fender Jazz Bass fretless. I had one before and it had a couple of bad dead notes. This one is much better. I run this frequency analysis to see if any dead notes...

    DSM Noisemaker OmniCabSim Deluxe : knobs and frequency response

    Hey, I got my OCSD cabinet simulator a few days ago (fantastic little unit, I love it :hyper:), and I wanted to study how the knobs affect the signal. So I've made a series of measurements that I'm now sharing, I think you might find it interesting as well. This will not, in any way, be done in...

    How to mod a Metal Zone for better bass response and synthy broken fuzz sound?

    I happen to be the owner of a Metal Zone, but I can only find use for it as noise making pedal (which it isn't even that good at) and feeding it into a fuzz for some wacked out noise fuzz effect (which, although quite limited use, actually do sound pretty cool). So here's the deal: I once...

    Cab and driver frequency response

    My band plays metal in drop "G" tuning my lowest string is tuned to G-0 which is 24.499Hz. If the usable frequency range of the cab is 30Hz-20kHz (as your Big Twin 2) then playing an open "G" string is below the response of the cab. In a case like this I can hear the note being played, but what...

    Ampeg Support Does the Right Thing (BA-112 v2 content)

    Back in March I posted about a problem I had with a brand new Ampeg BA-112 v2 where the signal was bleeding out of the speaker when headphones were inserted. My local music store made that right with an exchange the day after my post and everything was great for 3 months until the same problem...

    Flat Response Cabs - What's the jazz about?

    I've never used a "flat response" cab, at least as far as I know. I've used Ampeg, TC Electronic, Hartke, Trace, a bunch of unknown guys and my current daily driver, SWR. Anyway, my question is: What's the jazz about with these so-called flat response cabs, like fEARful et al.? Is it really...

    Double Bass Individual String Response - adjustable thru setup?

    My Upton STD ply is 6 or 7 years old now and has never had any periodic setups or needed any type of repair. I have begun to cycle down the rabbit hole of string changes. With every set I have tried, the E and A play & sound well, the D is more powerful and open sounding and the G is thin and...

    Low(er) gain, dynamic response OD pedal

    I'm using a Catalinbread SFT currently. It generally does what I want. I've had a couple of issues with it and sent it in for repair once. Now it needs a new foot switch as it will sometimes cut the signal out altogether. I can give it another stomp or two and it's fine, but it's pretty...

    Frequency Response - Fender Rumble 500 Combo

    Would anyone happen to know what the frequency response of this amp is? Fender doesn't list it, and a search turned up no useful results. Just curious, because I'm debating between a combo amp, and a general purpose powered PA speaker. Some of those I've been looking at go down to around...
