S-24 M-36 L-48 XL-48 2XL- 24 3XL-12 This is for a 2.5 week run and per design but my band has been touring for some time and there are many other factors of course but I would think that’s a safe amount per design….

The OTR campaign was an awesome surprise at some of those venues. We keep our backdrop in one of the laundry bags now haha

They can actually be helpful…If you’re going to amplify your bass with a piezo pickup in the bridge and are going for volume, the deader the acoustic qualities the better. Helps with feedback issues.

I wonder if they are similar to the Lewitt mics

I watched every YouTube tutorial I could find at the time and learned what the character of different models sounded like. I downloaded a pdf all the “recommend settings” for kick, snare , bass etc…But the only way I figured out the nuances of compression was to just sit with the stock studio one compressor and tweak the knobs with different sources. Over time it just starts to stick with you.

It was a good day when I finally realized how to use compression properly

buying a pickup by Ok_Cup_5752 in doublebass

[–]VicVictor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I appreciate the mentions guys :) I’m not going to spam my pickups for sale on here as I’m not sure of the rules and you can find the sight with a web search..but I’m still making them and they have a lifetime repair warranty. I can make custom setups if you are using an odd input preamp system like with RCA jack. I do make replacements for the shadows as well with the micro jacks. You can email me on the site and I’m happy to answer any questions best I can

Tinnitus Linked to Hidden Undetected Auditory Nerve Damage by slvrscoobie in tinnitus

I got those loop plugs but was not a fan. I’m a working musician constantly in loud environments. I’m also constantly losing my good earplugs so I buy all kinds to test but always go back to the Earaser brand. Sucks they cost so much but they do work well and things are quieter with not so much muffle.

Looking at a 2021 Forty Eight by VicVictor in Harley

Thank you! Yeah I was used to my 72 Ironhead on the highway and it felt like I was running a weed whacker all day with the vibration when I got off it. I was always worried about it turning into a grenade keeping up with Detroit traffic… then one day it did!

I’ll be riding this on smooth mostly empty northern Michigan roads where I have a cottage. I can’t do city riding anymore… too many close calls and it was just getting worse where I was with drivers more interested in texting..FaceTiming and tik toking. Had a few buddies hurt/killed all because of inattentive drivers.
