PorchBoard Floor Bass: Difference between revisions

Line 27:

* The best sound of the Porchboard seems to come when played through an Extended Bass {{L1}} System (one with 4 {{B1}}'s); four {{B1}}'s provide the broad dynamic low range which can bring out the variety of volumes one has with most percussive instruments. However, it can also sound just fine through single or double {{B1}} Systems, too. However, it is not recommend for use with an {{L1}} without at least one {{B1}} attached.

* Note that the pickup in the Porchboard is much like a microphone; however, since it is (usually) sitting on the floor, you might need to be careful about what other pieces of electrical devices are near it. For example, a "wall-wart" next to it might cause a 60-cycle 'hum' to be amplified!
