THIS EDITION ALLOWS SOUNDS TO BRING 4 SUBS MAX A sound can bring upto 4 sub boxes no bigger than a scoop with each sub cab comprising a max of 1 driver (2 drivers if reflex). Kick cabs are also allowed but must play kick/high bass frequencies!! All scoops will be classed as sub duty cabs only. THESE GUIDLINES ARE SET IN ORDER TO GIVE EACH SOUND ROUGHLY A LEVEL PLAYING FIELD. We are aware there are gonna be different views on definitions of sub, kick, driver amounts in cabs etc but we believe the cab size is more important than the 1 driver or 2 per cab in sub boxes roughly the same volume................BUT UNTIL PROVEN DIFFERENT AT ONE OF OUR EVENTS WE WILL STICK TO THIS THEORY!!! EACH SOUND IS ENTITLED TO AT LEAST ONE 32amp CEEFORM CONNECTION REGARDLESS AT WHAT TIME THEY ARRIVE SoundSystem Sound-Off is a SoundCheck after all, but we would still like to see sounds entertaining the punters with music and vibes with their microphones as this is key to keeping these kind of events alive!

Respects to Motion 54 and all sound crews for a great night. Motion 54 set sounding even better, QSS pre-amp making scoops sound sweet. Star of the show for me was definitely Heathrow Bass Labs Set and Crew. With Mich, Tippa, Tek on the set, fearsome crew. HBL minis "fully" embarrassed 2x of the other crews full scoops, never heard any 4x minis fill a venue like that before. Not saying one word about the sub amp. Just that all 4x subs were on 1x channel, and started smashing the place.  Those Community tops also embarassed other stacks at least 4ft taller. Michigan sounding like a regular Radio DJ, and almost starting a fight, Must say, dance did lost the vibe, when HBL Crew signed off. I think couple of sounds in there were lucky, Tek only got to drop 2x tunes, as writing was already on the wall.. "Michigan" on the Mic for Heathrow BassLabs  ------------- "Who am I?

Big respec to Motion 54 once again and nuff respects to all 3 sounds and the "box builder crew" Heathrow bass labs for all making the effort to bring out their sounds. That being said, as you know I always like to give my opinion on the night and as I paid my £5 here is what I thought but no disrespect intended. Foundation Culture E sound needs a complete overhaul..Sounded like their set was playing back to front. seemed as if mids was playing thru the tops and tops was playing throung their mids! Even tho they may have had technical issues, they were still trying to force their sound to keep up with the others. Why???? Sorry guys but back to the drawing board i think. Try using a mixer into an eq, then a simple 3 way crossover with 3 amps as this would sound much better. Reggae Magic - sounded a bit better than Foundation but still poor. I hate to see a selector playing tunes while sitting in a chair. Set was again quite poor. Looked like a tubbys pre amp but that needs to be replaced or the operator needs to read the manual on how to use a tubbys pre amp. As for the bad language on the mic  You will never score any brownie points there my friend. With regards to setting another date for playing HBL - You will loose (plain and simple) and i dont think many people would turn up anyway! I heard you played alot of dubs on the night but the set was so poor I couldnt hear any of them.Heathrow Bass labs - Nice sounding set. Had the clearest mic on the night. Very impressed with the Community mids/tops section. 4 x double 8 inchs for mids, although you needed more to cover the venue. Bass was loud but had no deepness, but I feel sounded best overall. Music selection was all over the place tho. Using a QSC PL9 for bass. Motion 54 - Sounded alot better than last time. Bass was by far the deepest on the night but seemed to play only deep notes. Need to turn up your kick boxes to et the higher bass notes. But i think those ASS scoop chambers have something to do with that. Tops were not as crisp as HBL. The mostec pre amp did make the bass sound better than last time tho. Good tune selection on the night. Overall there were only 2 sound systems that sounded ok. The other 2 need to rebuild and enter again once they've rebuilt. Just my opinion. Big up promoters once again.Look forward to the next one. ------------- I am everywhere and I am nowhere! |

Big up to everyone that came out last night was very intresting and funny but as mitch said we are not here as a sound where here to test HBL mini's with all kind of music but if that was a dance then a different ting music wise trust and for those that know there was 3 sound man behind the set, mitchigan vibes, tippa audio and universal sound, and that's what its about unite and help one another and keep sound system going 1 love peace

Reggae Magic did play some nice tunes, and sounded fairly heavy at one point, but then, they did have 2x mini scoops above their 4x scoops... Naughty.. Yes, Reggae Magic MC & Mitch did swear once.... Naughty Just remembered, May seem like Mich caused friction, but that wasn't until Reggae Magic MC said HBL set wasn't a soundsystem, and dissed them for not just playing Reggae. Good SP Turnout as well.
Towards end of the night, think the crew went for it, and deepened the sub, because when Tek was selecting, there was deepness... Trust...
Yes, huge improvement on the tune selection this time. Adjusting kick by eq for every tune would sort upper bass, as 1851 is stronger on low notes than '50, but not as strong 60hz up in the RX18DC. ------------- "Who am I? I'm the guy who does his job.. You must be the other guy". |

Respects Gee But don't forget, rules say 4x subs and 4x kick bins,  Motion & HBL had 4x subs and 4x kick bins. Rules also say no using subs above subs as kick, as some people will run sub through the cabs above the actual subs. And I definitely heard sub coming the shortman mini's in Reggae Magic stack.  ------------- "Who am I? I'm the guy who does his job.. You must be the other guy". |

Date Posted: 02 January 2012 at 3:05pm
So we are back to that argument again!!! When will it end.......... In my opinion each sound should be allowed to bring 8 bass speakers. Sounds that use kicks should be able to bring 4 kicks and 4 subs. Sounds that dont use kicks like Goverment should be able to bring 4 doubles, its as simple as that. Therefore if a sound turns up with 8 scoops then that up to them as long as they dont use kicks and just have mids and tops. In all of the sounds defence, they adhered to the rules so you cant blame them for that (promoter sets the rules) @ Gee136 - If all of the sounds including Reggae Magic and Foundation sounded better than Coxsone and Luv Injection then god help us all! I would have asked for my money back. ------------- I am everywhere and I am nowhere! |

Gemmi Magic = 3 way preamp (tubbys) HBL = no idea coz he used a crossover, but amp leds showed 3 way signals, please confirm Motion 54 = mixer/crossover + 3 way preamp (mostec) Culture E = 3 way preamp (mostec) so i agree with Gee on this one! also HBL your minis looked very familiar ------------- PRECISION SOUND SYSTEM.

I my books kick BASS is BASS I understand nuff soundmen would never admit to it, cause without thier kick bass then their machine will be weaker!!! My sound is double boxes, we own x11 of them now, we do not own anything else & never will own anything else Imagine 6 double bass of Govermnet in one section, then we turn round tell people, oh yeah 4 doubles playing sub bass 38hz & the 2 doubles on the top playing upper bass  BUT my upper bass is 39hz............................... 2012 get real, stop fool the people, facts is facts, just get on with it, leave a man to carry what he desire to make is machine sound the way they happy with, this one cap fit all nah mek it fi 2012........

Thanks for the reports but i was also at 45 shop lock forget about the other 2 sounds but injection weak ! injection is a pleasure to listen to most sounds are hard to listen to after a while gee and paulus please tell me in what section injection sound was lacking.injection has played with so many sound since 45 shop lock started i have been to about 5 session and no other sound comes close but all the sounds the other night would of sounded better ? i think i need 2 come to a sound check one sunday but i have heard many sound from down south i have not heard one sound as good as injection or many other sound from the midlands . i remember about 3 years ago i went to a dance in brixton town hall 4 top london sounds a member on here reported back saying all the sounds sounded good we left saying they were all very poor. but i like reading peoples reports respect for that. |

Yes midus, in short NO part of Luv Injection is weak in the arena Injection plays in I've been to x4 45shop lock for 2011 & Injection has been top quality over all the sounds that they've meet, Only King Earthquake has surpassed Injection.........BUT: In the roots arena, Injection wouldn't be able to contest the machines that was in the Golden Palace last night, one machine last night had technical, "Culture E", but even with Culture E technical, their bottom end would still have taken over Injection. (not mids & tops) Don't get me wrong now, for a dancehall sound, Injection is proper, but in the roots world, they'll come unstuck, just because of the shear bass pressure which a roots sound always opts for....... Injection for me as a dancehall machine has always been number 1 (1st heard Injection 1988 Brixton) Quaker City for me for a roots sound has always been number 1 (1st heard Quaker 1983 Brixton) (although I'm leaning abit over to King EarthQuake now )My opinion only.................

| Real talk is if you choose to run a 2 way system with 8 speakers on sub duty 4x double 18s you have no right to diss someone playing 4 sub & 4 mid bass or kick bass its about choice bit ive noticed some people love to bring up oh he had 8 boxes blah blah blah but you have the same ammount of drivers so why all the disrespect i just dont get it mate |

I'm certainly not here to criticize boxes. The way I see these gigs is, by all means, put a limit on the size of the system to be practical, but basically, just stand back and listen to what people have to offer. There are far too many egos involved sometimes and people start to get defensive. No point in walking round advising other sounds as to where they're going wrong. What we all have to remember is that what we hear is what's on offer from that particular sound. It should only stand or fall on that basis. If someone thinks he doesn't need to run a certain type of box, then let him prove his case. I had a great time last night. Lamb Shank and Scotch, great combination. ------------- http://www.facebook.com/tony.rossell.3" rel="nofollow - http://www.facebook.com/tony.rossell.3 |

In short I'm for any cabs brotha, but I don't agree with the terms people on here classify them as, (everything else expect bass) in short it is a bass box................ Hope that has cleared it up for you from my prospective.

yes its a sound check not a clash so maybe a re think is in order ! Love injection is the number 1 sound in the uk and has been for the last 15 years pound for pound nobody is in there leage ! Maybe the might have problems playing against roots sounds but be leave u me all roots sounds would have problems playing danchall withe them ! Only 2 sounds I've heard in a long time who are near them is fatman and quaitex ! Happy new year

When a sound has all of the components in place and their system is firing & the person operating the rig is happy thats it ! opinions are like arseholes everyone has one . As a soundman if theres something wrong with your system your the first person to notice you dont actually need multiples of people telling you this & that to me that just makes everything more stressful, & all this talk about how many boxes this n that is again pure foolishness .If you take your own money to build something for your enjoyment build it how you want whether it be 2,3,4,5,6 way i play 4 way now but i used to play 3 way (was pretty happy with it too ) so any talk about my sub wont sound as heavy if i take my kicks away is a load of CRAP !!! my subs play sub & my kicks play kick or low mid whichever you want to call it . !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! to much talk talk ------------- MORE BASS LESS BEEF INCREASE THE PEACE !!!!! http://www.facebook.com/?ref=home - my facebook page |

 and talk about bass pressure they are different its a bit like do you like apples or oranges? in a drum & bass,techno,house,dance style music rave your sound will come unstuck because you have no upper bass or kick present in your system just sub,that said people should not then start to compare your sound with a techno,dance music style sound as they are different & was built for different use just like Roots & Dancehall sounds.

Didn't I discredit you on here before
Social media make nuff people 10ft tall, don't it, again you take your hands out of your pocket & make your fingers press up keys...............
You show plenty of interest in Goverment don't it.....Didn't you already rubbish Goverment on here
 You must be someone I know, like a ex soundman from a sound I part company with  That's understandable to feel aggrieved when a progressive member part company, in time you will love Goverment
, keep watching Goverment inna 2012, & share in the progress, don't let jealousy swallow you up...............Oh yeah this is a Soundoff tread, sorry..............
Any time you want to CLASH Goverment in a soundoff event, that's no problem.............. Anytime.

Respects Gee... Older sound guys refer to different types of bass as bass & upper bass (or low mid).. More modern term is sub & kick. Most people class sub as (20hz-75hz), and upper bass /kick/low mid as (75-140hz). So if one sound has 4x sub cabs, and 4x kick cabs, surely that is not the same as another sound having 8x sub cabs ? ------------- "Who am I? I'm the guy who does his job..

| As for double boxs kick playing sub ect I think in order to move forward you need to try different things or we will never know the difference each man shold be allowed to play his system how he wants after all it is a sound check and all sounds are paying there fee ! Hope nobody takes this the wrong way but this is what I think ! |

The system we use for live shows are actually reflex subs like Gee. the difference is we also use upper bass/low mid cabs too (BS500). In each stack 4 x single reflex subs play 30-80hz and 2 x BS500 play 70-200hz. Even though they are 6 x drivers covering 30 - 200 hz, that is NOT the same as using 6 x Subs playing from 30hz up, as the frequencies that are used to move mountains are only covered by 4 drivers in each stack.------------- "Music is life" |

Big respect to the guys there with systems be them sounds or builders. I got there early but was only able to hear three out off the four systems. All seemed to have some technical hitches but again it was early. I was looking forward to hearing HBL dual 8"mids along with his 8" baby scoop but he didnt bring them :-(

instead he brought some 18" minis a rather unusual size for a mini lol what made you go for that height where everyone else is around 35"???

hey Marvin, big shame you couldnt stay
i dont think i can call them minis aas they are 1m high but as qss told me i should call them midi scoops
the reason they are that size is that is the max size of box that i can fit two in my astra estate, so i designed the scoop to fit in the car i had ------------- Produce a killer sound. Take no prisoners. |
