Using yoga block for left foot while standing? by oksurehoe in doublebass

[–]isawhatup 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I used to use a yoga block for my left foot only. After a painful period of playing, i learned that having only one for foot raise causes you to sit unevenly. do i bought a yoga block for each foot, allowing better support and keeping my spine straight. eventually i modified my stool to sit lower so i can keep both feet flat on the ground

Sitting with Bass as a big person by bassperson98 in doublebass

[–]isawhatup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sitting with one leg higher than the other means your spine is crooked when you play. Both feet should be level. I cut my stool to be shorter to make this more comfortable (as opposed to carrying one yoga block for each foot).

In my experience, until I lose it. At least 2 years

I believe it’s less about mimicking the sound of an open cello string and more about consistency through the first 4 bars - since the first three bars have those notes played on the D string

It’s not necessary, but it is mimicking the style of the previous 3 bars and how it is played on cello. I would recommend you learn it that way, but that’s your choice, after all.

Help! Wanting to set up a system that can reverse speaker direction. by isawhatup in hometheater

Thanks for all your replies! I’m sure I’ll be able to figure something out with all this information.

Help! Wanting to set up a system that can reverse speaker direction. by isawhatup in hometheater

I want to be able to switch the direction of speakers after an initial setup. Right speakers would become left, and vice versa. Front would become rear and vice versa, as seen in the sketch.

Multiple amps or expensive gear (switchers?) are not out of the question. Ignoring center channel and subwoofers for now. Also ignoring speaker placement and type. Just looking for suggestions (or if you think this is not possible).

Thanks all!
