AnotherScott Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 To repeat an earlier suggestion... I think the best way to capture the sense of space should be to do a binaural recording (and of course it has to be made very clear to the listener that the only way to experience it is to listen through headphones). Quote Maybe this is the best place for a shameless plug! Our now not-so-new new video at https://youtu.be/3ZRC3b4p4EI is a 40 minute adaptation of T. S. Eliot's "Prufrock" - check it out! And hopefully I'll have something new here this year. ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theGman Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 Just curious, I want to get a spare fuse or 3. I can't find a 50mmx5 fuse anywhere, just 20mm. Help, or was the above info size mistaken? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raymb1 Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 I found fast-acting 3.15-amp, 125-volt fuses on sale at a Radio Shack that was being closed, for $0.18 for a 4 pack. Can I use this fuse for the SS or does it need to be a slo-blo fuse. Ray Quote Casio PX5s, XWP1 and CPS SSV3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TexasTango Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 Quick SSV3/Sub routing question. I have a Kronos, QSC K12, and SSV3. Yamaha MG10XU mixer coming this week. My Kronos will go thru the mixer, out to the SSV3. Can I come out of the SSV3 Sub Out to a line level mixer input, EQ out the mids and highs there, then back out to my K12? Or, should I just go straight from the Sub Out to the K12? Thanks Quote Kronos 61 | Prophet '08 | Blofeld Desktop CPS SSv3 | QSC K12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
endlessummerkeys Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 the Sub out on the SS is fullrange and not a HP filter out. You would be getting all the frequencies. Better to feed the SS a filterd signal of everything above about 100 HZ. That way the SS is not having to deal with any low frequencies and is devoting all of its power to the lowmids to highs.

Your best bet would be to run the keys into the mixer, then come out of the mixer into a stereo crossover, with everything 100 hZ and below going to your K12 and everything above to the SS. Or, instead of the crossover and K12, dump another $299 into a Behringer B1200D or similar subwoofer that has stereo high-pass-filtered outputs (keys -> mixer -> sub -> SS).

rickp Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 SS3 delivered yesterday; thought I'd try it on top of my small venue bass amp, a Gallien Krueger MB210 (2 neo 10's and a horn, 350w @ 8ohms, 500w @ 4ohms, 33lbs.); ran 1/4's directly from CP4 into SS3, as I'd like to sometimes use a streamlined "no mixer" setup with the CP4's XLRs running directly to FOH; all that was needed for really nice AP was a 1 click drop of CP4's on-board mid EQ and dialing in the EQ, gain & support volume on the MB210. Looks like they were made for each other, right down to same knobs: http://i226.photobucket.com/albums/dd292/rickpoling/Sig%20P229%20pics/SS3/IMG_0754_zpscs9uhzmc.jpg http://i226.photobucket.com/albums/dd292/rickpoling/Sig%20P229%20pics/SS3/IMG_0755_zpsrfdruzdz.jpg http://i226.photobucket.com/albums/dd292/rickpoling/Sig%20P229%20pics/SS3/IMG_0756_zpsujspdf6r.jpg Quote Kawai KG-2D / Yamaha CP33 S90ES MX49 CP4 P515 / Hammond SK1 / Nord S4 88, S3 88, S3Compact, S3 76 QSC K8.2s K10.2s KS212s / SoundcraftUi24 / SSv3 / GK MB112s MB115 MB210s Neo410 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rickp Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Perfect match! Thanks! In tone too, I think; just eased the MB210's volume enough to fill the bottom. The MB210 amp was recently (mid to late 2014?) changed to a black fabric front and to add a direct link-out to GK's powered extension speaker units (my older version has a speakon jack to add a non-powered cab); a few of the metal-front models are still floating around online though.

WWW Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 FedEx jus delivered the SS3 and SKB case to Key West. I'm doing a 2 month residency with a band here. I've been using a pair of DXR 10's with my Nord Stage. Looking forward to the new amp. Some gigs are big and have excellent monitoring and FOH. Others are small intimate bars.

garnermike Posted February 24, 2015 Author Share Posted February 24, 2015 My new v.3 measures 19.25" (top to floor) x 11.75 x 11.25. So I think that bag will be a tad too small.

I just checked GK's support sites, thought it might have Eminence but, nope, it has Paragon Neodymium 10" Bass Driver listed as replacement for the MB210 and several other GK amps.

KingstonCrim Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 SS3 came to me yesterday, I'm still putting it through it's paces here at home where I can't turn it up much to really check it out. Tomorrow luckily I'll have two rehearsals with two different types of bands so will welcome the chance to try it out in a more live setting to see how it responds. It sounds nice already, but I think if I were doing a solo gig I'd probably have to spring for the subwoofer to round out the sound more. Even my little JBL 305s have more rumble when I A/B them with the SS. Fits nicely in the SKB case, though I think the wheels could probably stand to be a bit bigger for this much weight. Snug fit yeah, fits best sideways for me with the side speaker facing up so I can grab into the frame to pull SS up and out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
