Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use the Pro Acoustic Mix Di (PAMDI) with bass?

Highlander Musical Audio Products. Frequently Asked Question...
Absolutely! The extended frequency response of the PAMDI is ideal for bass instruments. In fact the Low Eq Band is sweepable down to 25Hz. That's lower than most bass instruments but very useful in certain situations. It's all the Owner's Manual that comes with the PAMDI, check it out... The upper end of this range is limited by ‘clipping’ which, in turn is limited by two factors, the supply voltage and the efficiency of the amplifier design.

How many strings does a bass guitar have?

Music Schools - Frequently Asked Questions
The standard bass guitar has four strings (E,A,D,G). You can also get 5 or 6 string bass guitars. The 5-string bass guitar adds a low B string and the 6-string bass guitar adds a higher C string as well as the low B string.

Should I stock Florida largemouth bass in my farm pond?

FAQs.htm
While Florida-strain largemouth bass have produced trophy/record fish in some reservoirs in southern Oklahoma, the results of stockings in farm ponds has not been encouraging. It's well known that Florida bass are much less temperature tolerant than the native strain. Since farm ponds are smaller and react quicker and longer to lower temperature changes, stocking a pond that is less than 30 surface acres with Florida bass is risky, at best.

Can I use my SWR acoustic amplifier as a bass amp?

SWR® - Amplify Your Future™
Yes. Although SWR Acoustic Series amplifiers are designed primarily for use with acoustic instruments, the California and Strawberry Blonde combos are perfectly capable of amplifying electric instruments. If you plan to do so, simply make sure that you adhere to the set-up and operation instructions found in your owners manual.

Why do you use DR Sunbeam strings and can I get something else installed on my bass?

LeCompte Electric Bass - Custom Bass Guitars
I think the Sunbeams are probably the most sonically pure string I've heard to date. The nickel plating keeps things smoothed out. I used to offer other strings, but it just got to be too much to keep up with. If you don't like the Sunbeams you can certainly change the strings when you get the bass in your hands.

I have a bass pond but would like to fish for crappie too. Can I stock crappie in this pond?

FAQs.htm
Crappie are not usually recommended in bass ponds under 100 surface acres. A prolific spawner, crappie in small bodies of water will usually compete directly with bass for food and produce not only slow-growing crappie but slow-growing bass as well. They are also known to reduce small bass survival by preying directly on young bass. You may know of a pond with both good size bass and crappie, but these are rare.

I live in a cold climate, but I want larger bass. Should I stock Florida largemouth bass in my pond?

FAQ's
No. Temperature considerations aside, there is a strong possibility that the introduction of Florida largemouth genes could adversely affect the native population of northern bass.

I already have bass in my pond. Will it improve fishing if I stock more fingerlings?

FAQ's
Generally not. If you already have significant numbers of predators in your pond, the odds are that most of your newly stocked fingerlings will be eaten. Also, the addition of adult fish may increase the numbers, but it rarely increases the standing crop. The amount of fish a body of water can support is generally dependent upon the availability of food.

I like bluegills, but don't like bass. Can I stock one without the other?

FAQ's
Neither species should be stocked without the other. The result of such stocking is usually a stunted fish population.

Where is Bass?

Rockman EXE MegaMan Battle Network Walkthrough Cheats FAQ
As far as I know, you can only get Bass at special events from Capcom. (As with "Mew" in "Pokémon") Those areas need a special condition to be entered. I don't currently know every one... For Internet-14, you need to collect at least 10 chips from Internet-13. Some areas can be accessed if you had a good Busting Level or didn't escape in the previous area, if you fail, you need to return to the beginning of the area.

How many strings?

alt.guitar.bass - THE WEBSITE!
I've got to be careful here..... Four and, more recently, five string basses have become the most common instruments. However, there are many people that use 6 and 7 string basses (I've seen a 9 string, so there are many varieties not mentioned here). None are inherently better than the others. I'm starting to sound like a broken record, but try as many as you can and decide for yourself.

Will the Acoustic Lens feed back?

Trance Audio - Frequently Asked Questions
The Acoustic Lens is designed to accurately reproduce the tone and nuance of your guitar at very respectable volume levels without excessive feedback problems. Ordinary contact pickups rely on the vibration of the instrument?s top and body to sense and create sound. In essence, the entire instrument becomes a large microphone, and often tends to feedback at lower volume levels.

Why do strings break?

Tennis Strings by Silent Partner
The primary reason strings break is that "main" strings rub against "cross" strings when the ball is hit with spin. Gradually, this rubbing cuts a notch in the main string. When the notch gets deep enough the string cannot withstand the stretch caused by a strong shot, and it breaks. The thicker the string, the deeper the notch it will tolerate before breaking. That's why thicker strings last longer than thinner strings.

Do I have to immerse a sample in a fluid to obtain an acoustic micrograph?

Sonoscan Frequently Asked Questions
Since ultrasound does not travel through air at the frequencies used in AMI a coupling fluid is needed to deliver the ultrasound pulse from the transducer lens to the sample surface.

Will the Acoustic Lens pickup work on any guitar?

Trance Audio - Frequently Asked Questions
The Acoustic Lens pickup was designed and voiced specifically for the steel string guitar. It can be installed on most steel string guitars but because of its mounting location requirements, it will not work in some instruments. Classical (nylon string) guitars use fan bracing, where the braces run over the bridgeplate and block the area where the pickups need to mount, and so are unsuitable candidates for installation.

Can I use the Acoustic Lens with other manufacturers' preamps?

Trance Audio - Frequently Asked Questions
The Acoustic Lens poses a unique set of problems to amplify. It produces a very low output level and requires a very high input impedance to accurately reproduce a signal. Other commercially available preamplifiers, even the so-called "Piezo" types are designed to work with the output of a saddle-type or contact transducer, which put out a signal level typically 10 times higher than the Lens.

Can I combine the Acoustic Lens with another type of pickup?

Trance Audio - Frequently Asked Questions
The Amulet is a stereo system (two completely independent channels), designed to mix or match the Acoustic Lens with other transducers, or to run two Lenses as a stereo pair. It can easily support a magnetic or saddle-type pickup in combination with the Lens, and the gain trimmers inside the internal preamp allow you to easily match the levels of your favorite pickup to the Lens.

Can I use two Acoustic Lenses and a magnetic pickup together?

Trance Audio - Frequently Asked Questions
You can parallel the two Acoustic Lens transducers together using a specially shielded Y-cable tht we have available, and plug them into one channel of the internal preamp, while the second channel accommodates the magnetic pickup. If we know that this is what you plan to do, we can supply a carefully matched set of transducers that will supply a balanced volume across the fretboard when connected this way.

What will Acoustic Jass wear?

Acoustic Jass - Frequently Asked Questions
