"Mr. Ender4TrackMind do not question the talent level or abilities of those of us on the forum. To imply that all most of us do is playback midi files is very insulting."

Its only an honest observation, and I dint say EVERYONE did I.

"There is as much talent here as anywhere in the world."

And people say I have an ego.

"To imply that using an arranger keyboard somehow makes us less talented only shows how little you really know about things."

And some people think just because they have an arranger keyboard, they are an entire band or they are a composer that's insulting. I know this isn't the case of everyone here, but those that fit have attacked me here on these boards before. Perhaps that made the minority into the majority for me.

"If you really feel that way about arrangerplayers what are you doing on this forum?"

I don't feel exactly as you thought I might, what are you doing on this forum?

"Also while we are being critical your "If your to lazy to bring the proper gear" comment should have been "If you're too lazy" and your "bring up gear transpiration problems" should have been "gear transportation". I think transpiration means moving your sweat around. I hope you know more about physics than English."

Grammer correction...on the world wide web. Come on now, that's just sad and is the exact reason a member just the other day had unjust fear in posting.

Let's stop this, please!

This forum is supposed to be a place to help people! to share experiences!

I'm tired of reading this kind of discussion.

The majority of us DON'T WANT to carry some heavy subs and tops as ours speakers, because for many it's an everyday job! Of course I would sound better with a 15" or a 18" sub but I (and others) just don't want to have to carry it!

Am I also lazy?

Hey cassp etc,

My JBL's are set up to go directly into another powered sub. What about putting 2 JBL's into one sub. Is there a "Y" adaptor available for this with those type of jacks? Is this the way to do it? I presume I won't need a crossover?

Thanx
Scott

Dave, just because a guy has twenty ex-wives doesn't make him an expert on women. I appreciate your opinions as much as anyone elses, but I always keep in mind that you have GAS. I also keep in mind that things having to do with sound are subjective and only relevant in certain contexts.

Mike clearly posted that those were opinions. Whether you like to admit it or not, a lot of your first hand experiences are highly opinionated too.

Should we only trust the opinions of those with Gear Aquisition Syndrome?

Are you running stereo? If so, I imagine you could 'Y' two channels into one sub - bass is less directional than high's, so that would work for me. If you're not running stereo, then you only need to run one line from one of the mains speakers to the sub. But better yet, if you have a separate line/power OUT from your mixer I think you'd get a better signal.

Ya, I'm running stereo. It's a Tyros, so I need to. I'll have to check the specs on the UB802 and see if I can discern what is on there for outs. Maybe the phones jack?

I don't have the mixer yet.

Maybe Phones or Tape Out?

Hi Scott -

I read your question - but not any of the answers so I hope there's nothing superfluous here.

In my opinion - you simply cannot be in a large venue without a sub. I just got back from a wedding now (its 1:20AM) where I used one. Its a great pain in the *** to lug around - in fact I've started hiring somebody to set up and break down my equipment just bc of the sub! It costs me $75 but the big sound is worth every penny.

I've only started using in a month ago and everybody's raving about my sound. They don't know what it is - they just know that I have a sound noone else can beat.

Egos can be tolerated. Ignorance and poor manners are not as easy to overlook.
Just lighten up, and try to fit in.....or please leave.......quietly.

We all try to help each other here .... were not dictators .... we're SHARING info with good intentions. Please don't storm into a happy room and bring your attitude upon us in such a way as to ailienate the members. It serves no purpose.

If you have legit info to share ..... please word your advice so it actually sounds like help. The Don Rickles approach is just so wrong for this special community of friends and musicians.
